Chapter 7 of Almost Nowhere is up here
Morning reblog
@itsbenedict left a comment saying the explanation in this one didn’t make sense to him, and in retrospect I realize it could make a lot more sense with some edits, so I may do that later today. This won’t affect anything plot-relevant or thematic and you’re free to read it now, it just might be less comprehensible in a certain part than it will be later.
Chapter 7 of Almost Nowhere is up here
The Malleus Maleficarum was able to spread throughout Europe rapidly in the late 15th and at the beginning of the 16th century due to the innovation of the printing press in the middle of the 15th century by Johannes Gutenberg. The invention of printing some thirty years before the first publication of the Malleus Maleficarum instigated the fervor of witch hunting, and, in the words of Russell, “the swift propagation of the witch hysteria by the press was the first evidence that Gutenberg had not liberated man from original sin.”

hey fellas last night i took a medication which is more or less the anxiety equivalent of a horse tranquilizer & essentially enterred the fifth dimension of sleepwalking in which i awoke but enterred a dissociative fit so strong i was really confused why my loving girlfriend was not my good friend and fellow viking bjorn, who i had to bring some furs to. also i might’ve cried about this. don’t remember
was informed i left out the best part of this 3am experience which was the bit where i, in tears, gestured to our dog and shouted, “i don’t know what this is!”

Here’s something a little less mammal-y: Pycnopodia helianthoides, aka the sunflower sea star!
These big fellas are one of the largest species of sea star in the world. They can reach 3.3 feet across and weigh up to 11 pounds! They’re also incredibly fast; 15,000 tube feet carry them across the sea floor at a rate of 6.9 feet per minute. An incredibly voracious predator, the sunflower star will eat pretty much anything in its path. If you’re an benthic invertebrate, it’s best not to get in the way of these speed racers!

At first, Keyes suggested Nixon could make a reference to the show’s catchphrase “you bet your sweet bippy,” but the candidate wasn’t having any of it.
