Drinks await in a charming pub
A drink of Irish whisky awaits in the Olde Starr Inn, the 'oldest' pub in York (1663)
we used to have a summer apartment across the road from that pub. It was up an absurd flight of stairs. Lovely city, though you weren't going to get a Sunday lie-in with the Minster bells being less than 100 metres away ...

Whenever I see some new life extension hype, I go and see how people are actually dying and what can be done to prevent it and it comes down to wearing seat belts, not climbing ladders, not smoking, controlling blood pressure and similar. If you are doing those boring things you are already in the top percentiles of life extension activities.
@ang same. I mean, bacon and sugar aside, I seem to be doing all the not dying correctly.

messing about in boats

Took my beloved and the terrier out kayaking (his first time, to see if he likes it so we can get our own kayak and save on rental fees) for Mother’s Day.
We all had a great time, so, yes.

I spent several summers kayaking around Lake Union in my late twenties, it's one of my favorite memories. I loved paddling down the rows of houseboats like walking down the streets of a somewhat wet neighborhood. The big apartment building on stilts just to the north of all the houseboats is a wonderful place to paddle under, have a surreptitious toke, and continue the paddle out to the arboretum.
The downside is when you take a break for winter, then come back the following spring/summer, you think you still have the arm strength to do long paddles, but your body begs to differ.

Also, did the kayaks have a skeg or a rudder?
@fnerg yes, we love ogling houseboats and imagining a lake life we could never afford.
And rudder, always rudder. It’s so much less stressful.

Me and the mister
alt text
A woman with grey-brown hair pulled back in a brain and a green plaid flannel shirt stands behind a man who is seated. He is wearing a grey toque and black glasses and has a full white beard. He has one eye open for some reason. The woman has a hand on his shoulder and holds a piece of a cookie in her other hand. The woman is me and the man is the mister.
Not a great photo of either one of us but somehow I love it. This was before we sat down to watch the town talent show.

Corpse of a telescope fish
alt text
Head and upper body of a weird white fish with many pointed teeth and conical eyes
This is a small slender deep sea fish, covered in silvery, reflective guanine. Their forward-facing telescope eyes allow them to see the silhouettes of prey swimming above them in the faint sunlight
They are15 to 20cm long, and have a massively expandable stomach and mouth with long, needle-sharp teeth. They are known to swallow fish that are actually larger than themselves.

the curious case of the office chickens
alt text
cropped phone pic: a tiny translucent plastic chicken, sitting on a window ledge, with daylight passing through it. behind it is a frosted glass window, and below, a dark wood panel
it’s been hectic at work. i hate it. the only good thing about it lately has been finding these tiny (~1”) plastic chickens in random places at the office.
last week, i noticed one on a short fridge next to the office espresso machine. a day or so later, i saw a second on a random shelf on another floor. a day after that, a coworker happened to say “did you see the neon orange chicken in the drinks cooler?”.
he and i found three more the same day, and another coworker i mentioned the chickens to said she’d spotted another in the ladies bathroom on the floor above mine. no-one in office has owned up to it yet.
now there are at least seven of them around the office. i don’t know what person is doing it, but bless them for giving me the tiniest slice of whimsy to get me through the day
