Earless dragons and mouth less moths, they fight crime?

I am confused why my alarm did not go off. Woke up at 9am. My phone had turned itself off, I think-- I thought maybe I hadn't plugged it in right and it ran out of battery, but no, it is at 99%. WTF, phone??

Yeah, the domesticated silk moth cannot have sex w/o human intervention because the males don't fly and the whole silk moth technique is for the females to wait for the males to approach them.

(There are domestic/wild hybrids - basically the wild dudes fly to the domestic females and because the domestic males don't fly there aren't any hybrids that are domestic male/wild female crosses.)

meara, I nearly got run over twice by asshole drivers this morning and my phone decided to freeze as I was trying to turn off a podcast, so I think it's going to be one of those days.

So should I have Cauliflower soup:

A sublty textured cream soup with cauliflower, celery, and onions, blended with cheeses for a favorable flavor combination.

or Roast Turkey

Oven roasted turkey complimented with a side of stuffing

today. I love the descriptions on our website. I could also have pecan pie: Mammoth toasted pecan halves in an intoxicating filling, laced with Kentucky Bourbon.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Dang, Sophia, I think I would have to get both! (I am pretty hungry right now, though.) If I had to choose, I'd go with the soup.

And then pie.

Soup then pie - if a 3 course lunch is not an option.

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

This capsule principle seems familiar--I'm sure I've read something like it as packing advice. I'm tempted to pull one out of my closet and experiment with it for a while, but that involves motivation and energy--both of which evade me greatly at the moment.

Our wings are not tired.

That soup sounds good although I am full from the avocado roll and blackberries I just downed.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I'm not a fan of cooked cauliflower, but the turkey just seems too heavy for spring.

Weirdly I am usually hungry after the turkey. Probably because it comes with stuffing, and not mashed potatoes as well. Although I could get corn....
