@iBlame gorgeous
@dasparky When I spotted it out of the corner of my eye I thought it was a bat
@iBlame @dasparky nice manicure!
@glasspusher @dasparky It’s a miracle those nails weren’t full of ranch dirt

@iBlame @glasspusher @dasparky related, a week ago, we had snow on warm soil then cold snow.

One of my colleagues asked my how I'll deal with my 1-3/4" riding heel boot.

The worst I ever ate shit was in NATO boots.

@autolycos @glasspusher @dasparky I don’t know what this means. Do you not own other footwear? No judgment. I wear Birkies every day.
@iBlame @glasspusher @dasparky let's just say I'm a Primus fan
@autolycos @glasspusher @dasparky You’re really gonna make me google this, aren’t you
Primus - Wynonna's Big Brown Beaver

@autolycos @glasspusher @dasparky I used play in a weird loud rock band, but I could never get onboard with Primus. Whenever I hear Claypool I just keep seeing those Southpark douchebags interacting with a sentient turd.

@iBlame @glasspusher @dasparky pay attention to the boots

Don't get distracted

@iBlame

I like big moths and I cannot lie

@westerling I once saw a luna moth, albeit fleetingly, and I thought I was gonna die

@iBlame

I'm kind of obsessed with them.

@westerling So am I, ever since that fleeting encounter. It was a few years ago on my back porch. I scan the porch every day now with no joy. Have since determined that it was an anomaly. But I don’t think I’ll ever stop checking.

@iBlame

They like birch trees so if you have a stand of birches, you may get some.

@westerling So I hear. No birch trees here. Just live oaks, ashe juniper, and mesquite. Was amazed that this moth showed up at all, it had to be something weird, like a nutty anomalous weather event, that brought it here.
