No squeaks or shouts from this little floof; they clued in to their insect homies and borrowed some evolutionary tricks.<br/><br/>Weighing in at around 200g, and approximately 14cm in length (which is perfectly acceptable, fellas), this friend-shaped muncher will scare any bug that crosses its path. And if anything scares it, spiky quills will make themselves known!<br/><br/>#Animals #WhosThisFluffer #Madagascar<br/> <img src="https://media.beige.party/media_attachments/files/116/280/632/890/803/291/original/1814e1fb344c831b.jpg"> <br/> 2026-03-23T21:35:33Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs0qv2c086za7d4tzn24ld54g53wk6ftnzczpqpf8kthv4wn7uctfczypecjdz9selfwhlmahhh8yvsgn2254vqthpsf48es3gny276y0sc60yy0y6 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsv95ahszjwrdw8tmdtln48e9l3c9cfts79duferd2v68t3w26dmesal2339'>nevent1q…2339</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Little known?<br/><br/>...<br/><br/>Are you for real right now? 2026-03-17T22:20:24Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs9t3y04fjjvg93exgfh5nzzfclaj3ljfr6akkgdawwmk7tgerrszgzypecjdz9selfwhlmahhh8yvsgn2254vqthpsf48es3gny276y0sc6uxdxp9 I&#39;ve talked about art all day.

I swear a long time ago we saw a documentary, or read about, a festival or holiday tradition somewhere in which someone dresses as a creature who comes to the village and insults people, until they eventually invite the creature to join the village.<br/><br/>&#34;My brain is telling me it was Italy, but I can&#39;t find anything (or any other country, for that matter).

She loves going into thrift stores and getting old cassettes which is something we did yesterday. <br/><br/>I asked her why. They are poor quality, rarely last long, and that unforced &#34;stretch&#34; thing they do makes my soul ache, sonically. <br/><br/>She described the ritual of cassettes, of vinyl, of &#34;eight track (?)&#34;. She was lost in a world of nostalgia; something I don&#39;t have in me. I cannot empathise for the past.<br/><br/>I told her I had never used a cassette. She was shocked. I don&#39;t see why. Then I remembered Mickey Mouse.<br/><br/>I must have been small small. Like needing help wiping your bum small. I vaguely remember I had an anamatronic (sp?) Mickey Mouse. When you took off his overalls, a cassette thingie was visible on his back. You put in a cassette, closed it, dressed him again, and pressed play on his...nose? Ear?<br/><br/>He would tell a story with hand movements and facial expressions. And if you were rich and had more than one doll, they would act together.<br/><br/>Does anyone else remember this thing? As I said, I was small small. Am I making this up?

Bots and games of telephone tag later, I finally get to someone who explained to me in detail how to change a phone number in the app. Which I recorded/videoed because they won&#39;t believe me.<br/><br/>Uploaded to a throwaway YouTube account, I sent the vid and a complaint to the bank. Two months later, I get a reply. &#34;We apologise, here&#39;s £30 for your trouble,&#34; yadda yadda. Still not phone number change.

The tablet is under 2 months old. <br/><br/>I went to the Samsung store to get advice. They wanted me to return the tablet and pen and get a full replacement.<br/><br/>They don&#39;t sell the nibs, or indeed the pens, separately. <br/><br/>A massive waste of resources and time and money for a nib. <br/><br/>I bought third party ones on eBay. 2024-08-27T11:25:45Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsqxaraeruku2vdw2ej00tvecepjlv0q8alr7q9djzuq24taya2d4szypecjdz9selfwhlmahhh8yvsgn2254vqthpsf48es3gny276y0sc6xtx4ft In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs96gyr65wgek7z0vamqkq4jumg3qad7kp05qgp54hvc5efu8j0gesfw2rvl'>nevent1q…2rvl</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Joni Mitchell. 2024-08-10T09:55:17Z
