@Betty when i’m doing long and complex cooking stuff i do sometimes like a “and then you go to bed” step in there to like, break it up a bit. but yeah on a regular basis no way am i making today and tomorrows dinner on the same day

@dsalo @platypus we’ve been exclusively on eduroam for a while (probably a decade?) and no issues with library IP authorization as an end user

@wallhackio i would also say try Badly Broken Code by Dessa and 1996 by Ryuichi Sakamoto

@wallhackio margo is too sleepy for fedi but she asks if u have listened to the album “no need to argue” by the cranberries

@soph_sol yeah i thought “what kind of moths live in ferns” was going to be an answerable question but it does not seem to be. There are just So Many Insects

@greyor yeah a very formal and precise “no one knows anything but at least two of us are working on that”

oh thats interesting! i feel as far as amateur sciences goes lepidoptery would be one of the easier ones to start off in — they’re everywhere and its easy to make basic observations with simple equipment. And since apparently the professionals dont know anything either you’re not even that far behind 😂

@greyor if you’re wondering how to say this in lepidopterist speak, i opened a paper claiming to have discovered three new kinds of moth in canda and it opened with «Even if the genus Herpetogramma is worldwide in distribution (Solis 2010), we have restricted our research to North America – mostly to Canada – as there are so many discoveries remaining to be made and also so many habits of these fantastic species remain unknown. Even for American species, very few details are known as to the biology of Herpetogramma (Solis 2010). The latter is the only author who has tried to shed light on that matter.»

anyway i have learned some fun things about moths, namely: we don’t know shit about moths

@westie @Betty the ace journal club discussed the preprint of this article a while back if anyone wants another perspective on the subject: asexualagenda.wordpress.com/20

@weirdestate hey its still better than no windows at least!

we have a bubble glass external window in our bathroom and it does let a surprisingly decent amount of light through without really effecting the quality too badly

@wallhackio @coriander unfortunately @aescling has also not watched kill la kill so will do nothing with these reports, but i have also still not watched it

@platypus if you wanna mix it up, sleigh bells are easily acquirable from music shops and make a nice counterpoint to the cowbell (unfortunately i suspect most cowbells in music shops will be designed for drum kits and therefore clapperless)

@Betty i have seen bison from a near enough distance to be quite sure i would not like to be up close with any animal of its size regardless of domesticity and no amount of delicious buffalo milk cheese will convince me otherwise tbh

@Betty yeah i think i can get donkeys and horses but mules are always like *squints suspiciously*

tho maybe i should just start assuming all the weirdos are mules until you correct me otherwise

@Betty share your ungulate ID tips with us instead? would love to know more
