There's something about a food that moves all by itself that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

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

They used to effectively charge .05 per bag at Ralph's by giving a .05 discount for every bag you brought in. Now they give you 5 points to your account and that turns into dollars every blue moon, and really, you're just doing it for the environment and nothing immediately palpable.

I do feel fail when I mis-estimate how much I'm buying and need to get a store bag. Even though I recycle those too.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!

Yikes ita, hope your mom is all right.

Also, randomly, has anyone else seen the awesomeness of which line to stand in at the grocery store now with improved data collection?

Does the data explain why someone in front of me always has some issue that requires a manager to be called over, stalling the line?

ita, I hope your mother is okay.

Someone please keep me from killing this student who keeps telling me that the entry on adverse possession doesn't exist - I've shown the listing to her for it in both the index and the ToC and I'll be damned if I'm going to open the book to the exact page for her.

“Not dead yet!”

I'll be damned if I'm going to open the book to the exact page for her.

You could, and then when she leans down to look at it, slam the book shut on her face.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Not unless their issue is "I'm being followed by teh gays!"

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Lizard disguised as autumn leaf

Plus the lizard has an awesome name!

A Satanic leaf-tailed gecko, a type of lizard that can camouflage itself to resemble a shrivelled autumn leaf, has been captured on camera in a stunning image.

I want this shirt: Science Is A Verb Now Shirt

Pay no attention to the cat sciencing through space. She was sciencing where she wasn't supposed to science and it is our hope that in the end her sciencing will help further the cause of science.

The print on this shirt GLOWS IN THE DARK.
