A friend of mine needs facial feminization surgery. Health insurance won't pay for it. So she's crowdfunding it: gofundme.com/f/help-charlotte-

I used to have an Android app that showed me, at a glance, the time of day, phase of the moon, and progress through the year. It's an old old app and doesn't work on new phones. Anybody have any suggestions for something similar? Original app: android.arnodenhond.com/apps/a

#RosesAreRed
Bird feet are blue;
at least for the booby
who has one or two

Roses are red
Violets are too
Did you put food coloring
In the watering can too?

These "roses" poems
Find some new expression
As several dozen people
Toy with rhyme progression.

Moses' toe-ses are red
Moses' toe-ses are blue
Moses supposes
his toe-ses ain't roses,
Moses, he knowses
his toe-ses froze through

roses poetry, "this is just to say" 

This is just to say
I have eaten
the roses
you kept in
the icebox

and which
you were definitely
mistaken
in putting there

They're roses
what's wrong with you
they don't go in the icebox

what do you mean what's wrong with me

Of course I ate
the roses
I had to
that's how the poem begins
yes the thorns hurt a lot

sometimes
we do foolish things for love

Roses are red,
The rich hate altruism,
Share resources based on need,
And espouse anticapitalism.

Roses are red
except when another hue
Violets don't exist
It's a horticultural conspiracy

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Socialism is good actually
And so are you.

Gonna use the and tags like previous years so these can all be collected more easily.

Aaaaaaargh.

Thank you.

Shopkeeper, I require your strongest BLÅHAJ.

Look, I'm not a religious person and I'm not much of a Beatles fan, but I think that crescendo build and finally glorious E-major chord in _A Day In The Life_ might actually merit building a religious organization around.

joking rebuttal to people complaining about the Voyager episode where people turned into lizards after going Warp 10 

26 years ago, the Voyager episode "Threshold" aired, in which it was revealed that humans who break the Warp barrier turn into lizards. This episode has been wildly reviled, but those protesting it are missing an important truth.

Every single time a human breaks a speed barrier, they turn into a lizard. It's a biological fact - in attempting to break the sound barrier, we went through sixteen test pilots before Chuck Yeager mysteriously didn't turn into a lizard. There is ample pictographic evidence to show that the first humans who attempted to ride horses turned into lizards. Our simulations show that we can expect the first team of astronauts attempting FTL travel will turn into lizards.

When faced with a velocity that the human brain is unprepared for, a complex psychosomatic process is initiated and the human turns into a lizard in response. After the new "maximum" velocity is normalized and no longer seen to be excessive, humans stop being startled by the travel velocity and cease turning into lizards. It's just basic biology.
