“Do I look unwell to you?” (This is the forage box where we sprinkle healthy treats for them to dig for.)
Status:
Rest day, not out of choice, but it is what it is and hopefully tomorrow will be better.
Fun with the rabbits, who decided not to eat their leafy greens last night or much of their hay during the day. This is usually an alarm for a digestive issue, but they seemed fine and were otherwise eating. Rabbits don’t show when they’re unwell because then they get picked off by predators, so you have to look for subtle signs, and none of those were showing. So we’ve just been monitoring all day. Still no interest in greens tonight, but they wolfed down the grassy pellets and took hay when offered. As is so often the case with rabbit behaviour, big ¯\*(ツ)*/¯
Overnight listening:
Music:
Reading:
- The grounding power of having a purpose - this is why I always preferred to work an event rather than just attend it.
- The Once and Future Riot by Joe Sacco review – a masterclass in visual reportage - new Sacco on the legacy of Indian partition.
- Giant Platforms of Shit - Dave Mandl reviews Cory Doctorow’s Enshittification.
- Why the time has finally come for geothermal energy 🔓 - long piece that starts in Iceland (I once visited the Reykjavík plant and it’s very impressive), visits the post-fracking scene in Texas and a cathedral in New York, and ends in Zambia. Lots to chew over.
Watching:
Jigsaws completed:
- Hinge - photographed in France in 2010
Telly:
- Tuca & Bertie - all done. That was such a delightfully weird and touching programme. Would watch again.
- I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinson
- I Love L.A. - I’m getting used to this now. It’s basically your “awful people make bad decisions” comedy, just for a new generation. It’s not supposed to be deep or profound - just dumb fun.
