Hey, LJ! I've been a bit quiet lately, but I'm still alive. I'll try to make a more substantial post later, but for now have a bit of a link and vid spam. (A few of you have seen some of these already on Facebook.)

Whale-poo-sniffing dogs: ladies and gentlemen, science in action.
Airdropping dead mice stuffed with acetaminophen over Guam to kill invasive snake: if a cartoon evil overlord took up a second career as a conservation biologist, this sounds like the sort of plan s/he would come up with. However, the brown tree snake situation in Guam is bad enough that all sorts of crazy stuff is worth trying.
Making bioluminescent plants: You know the saying about sufficiently advanced technology being indistinguishable from magic? I think glowing trees would qualify.
Victorian Star Trek (via
dameruth ): photoshop win!
YouTube Stuff
I have never been to Portland, but this increases my already high desire to visit the city by tenfold.
(via
isiscaughey ) SO MUCH GEEKY WIN IN THIS VIDEO. I injured myself laughing at the line right before a certain character gets frozen in carbonite.
"It's Raining Men" from the works of Austen and other period dramas. I think I'm going to do a rain dance to see if I can get this particular storm to rain down on my area.
