the lunar eclipse last night made me feel like i was in a sci-fi (excuse me, speculative fiction) film because it hovered very menacingly making me feel like i lived on a planet with multiple moons that always glowed red.
during my lunch hour today npr was airing a segment about carl akeley (not pictured) and the art of taxidermy. it was hard to stomach but i listened to the entire thing. it was mostly a history of taxidermy but still...brain scoops and ear splitters...gross.
