I was feeling all combative and shit because the title promised me plural owls and the post only contained owl. But the images in the comments have satiated me… for now.

Carry on. These are some high quality birds.

Last Week Tonight did a story about dollar stores:

Yeah, they’re as bad as you’d expect.

Fun fact: there have been several instances throughout history where someone had the opportunity to interview known cannibals. The most obvious question that comes to mind is “what do we taste like,” and the answer has always been pork.

Maybe this had something to do with the taboo. It certainly turned me off the idea of eating pork.

I love it when pigs are portrayed in such a way as to break with stereotypes. They can be graceful.

Fjallraven makes technical pants that are fantastically durable, and waterproof. They are waterproof because they are a waxed canvas, so you can remove the waterproofing and make them more durable by washing them on a hot cycle, or add wax and melt it into the fabric with a heat gun.

They’re expensive, so wait for one of their sales. I paid $140ish (USA) for both of my pairs, it it was worth every cent. They come with a lifetime warranty, so living near a fjallraven store is helpful as they will repair them and wax them for you for free.

Technically they’re only supposed to provide this service for 10 years after purchase (which is still worth it considering how much abuse I put them through) but Fjallraven employees will still provide tailoring/waxing even if you don’t have a receipt. I asked someone at their Seattle location about this and they said they have a customer who has been bringing in their pants for repair for 30 years. They’ll mail your clothes back to you after they finish with repairs/waxing.

I have two pairs, one vidda pro ventilated for shoulder seasons and winter, and one pair of abisko lite trekking zip offs for summer. The vidda pro pants I use for winter sports instead of snow pants. The zip offs can be converted into shorts for hot days.
