Today I learned

Today I learned that bunnies can actually bark:

That was terrible!! The poor thing is screaming for its life 🙁 🙁 I thought Rabbits only make that sound in mortal pain or danger. It was terrified 🙁

My rabbit has lost the plot now, trying to escape by digging through the bookshelf (from the second shelf).



Today I learned that tradespeople do walk in on people in the shower.
 
Today I learned that the Bro Code from HIMYM has been published as an actual book.

Got hold of the e-book as soon as possible.
 
Today I learned that, depending on use, the average sports bra has about the same shelf life as a toothbrush... I don't get new ones nearly enough if that's true! (I'm not even in the same neighborhood as 'nearly')

Understandable, bras are expensive...

Hmm, folk said there would be days I wish I had teeth, no toothbrush here.
Today I learned that weather can be predicted with a much greater degree of accuracy by measuring the activities of the sun and solar winds rather than examining weather patterns.
Apparently there's a weather station in Wales that is three times more accurate in its predictions than anywhere else because it does this very thing.


I also watched 'The Chine Syndrome'- a famous anti-nuclear power film- which (much to my actual surprise) didn't have a single coherent argument against the use of nuclear energy past 'this future thing is BAD! Fear it.'
Just sounded like religious dogma to me.

Weather forecast in Greenland is 98% accurate. It's gonna be 'cold' today ( or 'very cold' or 'bloody freezing' )
Today I learned that a T-Rex looks like this more than a reptile:

What about chickens? They get laid before they are born, is that where the saying originated?
Some are born lucky?
 
Tonight I learned I still can't listen to Bowie without getting all misty eyed (but in the good sense like when you're coming up on good drugs and your spine's got the tingles from laughing at all that existential anxiety you'd been carrying on your shoulders). Etc.
 
Recently I learned that monopoly was created in order to support the theories of Henry George, as well as how to play monopoly.
 
That if I don't move my jaw for any reason, I don't feel any pain. Ugh, I feel like my teeth are taking their revenge. 😡

screaming through clenched teeth, Monopoly can be fun.
My dear Bluebird, now you know what happens if you play Monopoly with your teeth clenched.
 
It is beautiful, never thought of scorpions as beautiful.

As for me today I learned that pumpkins need sun and warm soil to grow big

I should have learned that before trying to grow pumpkins this summer.
Today I learned that shrikes impale their prey on thorns, sometimes alive.
