A Rare Sighting of the Pelican Eel...

The pelican eel's most notable feature is its large mouth, which is much larger than its body. The mouth is loosely hinged, and can be opened wide enough to swallow a fish much larger than the eel itself. The lower jaw is hinged at the base of the head, with no body mass behind it, making the head look disproportionately large. Its jaw is so large that it is estimated to be about a quarter of the total length of the eel itself.

So, practically. If Canada were to join the EU, what steps would be required? We'd obviously need to apply, like other countries. Certainly greater presence in Brussels.

Would we need to adopt the Euro? I'd think so, but not sure if that is a good idea.

We'd have to upgrade a lot of our standards

It is called Enlargement. Seems appropriate for the era we are in.

A simple 3-step process - Candidacy, Member Negotiations & then Accession.

Who doesn't want accession?



My jointer restoration project, still sitting at the old place. Paused for now, but not forgotten. Was in the middle of this when we finally found the right homestead.

Need to make space for it here first. Preferably with a foundation, so I don't have to move it again.

And then find about six strong elephants to help me load it onto a trailer.

Problems for another time.

Finally! A Democrat stands up for fellow congresswoman Sarah McBride, when the Republicans deliberately choose to misgender her.

About time the childish bullies are told "NO!"

@Kletskous indeed. This exposes the Republican idea of freedom, which is not "freedom for all", but instead "my freedom to trample on your freedom".
in reply to Randahl Fink

@Kletskous Frank Wilhoit nailed it in 2018: "Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect."

Space-force should not exist. It is a fascist product of a fascist president.

The current #SarlaccPit puzzle has been solved by @darth_hideout. Nicely done!

The answer was "Rebellions are built on hope" (Jyn Erso says this in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story).

A web browser should *NEVER* be able to look inside your clipboard without an explicit user action (such as ctrl-v). Honestly, this should not be a controversial statement.

Le rapport «Planetary Solvency» indique que si on continue à ignorer le climat et les limites planétaires, on fonce vers un réchauffement moyen de 3°C, chute de 50% du PIB mondial, chute de 50% de la population mondiale et un tas d'autres problèmes politique et sociaux... Tout ça avant la fin du siècle.

Gaaah, what did I get myself into here with this 46 kg monstrosity…?! I can hardly lift it myself. This will be interesting to get through the bandsaw.

I really gotta learn to say no to such things 🫣 But it's one nice long cherry log…
(Oops, did I say one? I meant three – the other ones are hiding out of frame. Luckily they're a bit lighter!)

Two logs and another broken screw extraction later. One log to go. 😤

Somehow my body aches a lot today. I can only imagine how people must have felt after sawing logs to boards 100 years ago. 😫

Hard work, for sure! None the less I still have the wish, to try out a whale saw one day, in my mind.
