And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

The one weird thing about that show is that clearly the network doesn't really think the next Food Network star is a chef at all in any way.

Yep. Which is strange, because most of their hugest stars have three or four restaurants (Mario, Bobby, Emeril). Emeril and Bobby especially are ALL about the zillion-exotic-ingredient dishes. (Hello, pomegranate molasses? WHOSE favorite ingredient is that again, judges??)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Okay, silly Lifetime movie. Question: Is it kosher to, if you're a single mother who's rejected the babydaddy as a boyfriend to go back and beg babydaddy to dump his girlfriend and take you back? That just looks like weird behaviour. Also, I hate that they hinged the conflict on one sentence from babydaddy to make him perfect, and one from the charmer to make him not the guy.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Sounds like a typical Lifetime movie. Was Colin the charmer, or the babydaddy?

Does tomorrow HAVE to be Monday?

Charmer. He was very relaxed. It was fun watching it, even if the movie was irritating.

In critter news, EWWWW. Whitefonted:

An international group of scientists has described an animal that provides nutrition for its young by letting them peel off and eat its skin.

The worm-like amphibian develops a nutritious outer layer of skin, and looks "relaxed" while its young rips it off with their teeth.

The researchers say this kind of parenting has never been seen before in land-living animals.

Oh, that's nasty. Skin is, ironically, crawling.

Good thing about not having children then, isn't it?

Happy Birthday, Drew!

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

OK, that's an ewww indeed. Except that since many animals regularly shed their skin anyway, it makes sense that it would be a way of nourishing the young, except that the intermediary step of actually shedding it doesn't happen.

Nature sucks, sometimes.

I'm not going to work today. But I am driving about 6 hours or so. ::sigh::
