The Sea Sheep (Costasiella kuroshimae) is a sea slug native to the Philippines and a few Japanese islands. This slug conducts kleptoplasty where it will steal chloroplasts from photosynthetic algae and use it to photosynthesize sugars for itself.

This is No Man’s Land. This is not something you can cross, it’s not possible.

That was the wildest 90 minutes of C-SPAN I’ve ever watched.
Hey, Xkit fixed replies-to-replies from the new notifications list! Thanks guys!
More relevantly, I actually wasn’t watching–I just had several journalists’ twitter feeds open in tabs and kept refreshing them–so it wasn’t until today that I saw all the stuff Buzzfeed breaks down here.
That is so cool. We were watching, and there was all that chatter in twitter about “if McConnell had the votes he’d vote.” So we were hopeful, just the tiniest bit. But I was pretty sure it was going to be disappointing. I mean, that perception was 100% baked in for me at that point.
We saw McCain go out to the side chamber, then return, and do something, but it wasn’t clear what it was. And we heard the reaction, but didn’t know for sure what it meant until the clerk was reading back the yes votes alphabetically and there was no Collins, no McCain, and finally no Murkowski.

If I’m King, where’s my power? Can I form a government? Can I levy a
tax, declare a war? No! And yet I am the seat of all authority. Why?
Because the nation believes that when I speak, I speak for them. But I
can’t speak.

Anyone want to try a thing with me. I’ll go and tell you one thing that made me happy today. You can reblob and add your thing and hopefully people will keep adding and we’ll get to share long strings of happiness. I don’t know about you but I really need to see goodness, decency, work, and love right now.
me: I finally have clarity about the work we’re doing. \o/
My semi-feral cat Poppet was really excited about the sprig of fresh catnip I gave him this evening! Also, I derived a lot of amusement from this whole series of outfits that Celine Dion has been wearing lately. For some surreal Celine Dion awesomeness, be sure to watch the video in this post. (I cheated. That was 2 or 3 things, depending on how you count them. But I feel like we need them.)
I watched 90 minutes of C-SPAN after bedtime and 51 politicians gave my cynic’s heart an unexpected present.
