PSA to other folks who also frequently schedule meetings across the Atlantic: DST ends this Sunday in Europe but it doesn’t end until the following Sunday in the US—because if we’re going to fuck with the clocks let’s maximize the chaos and fuck with them at different times, sure, why not.

@freemo This Sea Angel was cute, until it ate a snail alive.

Shown below, Tom Emmer's run at the Speaker of the House Position:

@freemo There is the other side of this, look incredibly ugly, don't get eaten. There is a canny valley of edible food ?

@freemo Are you sure its just not an evolutionary trait on behalf of the meat. Look Cute, don't get eaten.

Taking concrete #action to solve a local problem can really be empowering when the large #environmental challenges have you feeling overwhelmed and powerless. So can connecting with like minded folks and enjoying fresh air in a #greenspace. So, come out and join our annual #wetland clean-up. Or if you’re not in #waterloo , consider organizing your own! I promise you’ll feel good

Probably, though to simulate ant grooming you'd need something like a tiny wet sponge or a q-tip. IDK if they would feel calm enough to lay down and roll on their side and enjoy it the way ants tend to when they groom each other.

This is Sir John Freeman, Baron Fremingham of Glassenbury. He is my 15th great grandfather, a Knight, a Baron (british royalty).

He changed his name from DeFremingham to Freeman, I suspect the name change was due to membership in the freemasons, but since it predates the organization globally (grand lodges) it can be hard to be certain. But family tradition and history is highly suggestive here, my entire male line goes back to the beginning of free masonry and this name change just a few generations before that. So the link is highly suggestive.

It is from him my coat of arms and technically my status as british royalty, but functionally these things are meaningless, just interesting historic gems is all.
