    Someone didn’t learn about how poisons concentrate up the food chain. Biomagnification, if you care to learn.

    I learned about it, at school, from a video having people dressed up as rabbits grabbing lettuces of sticks (some injected with blue poison) and someone dressed up as a fox clubbing the rabbit people. Also, due to that video, the sound of the narrator saying ‘Arctic char’ will live rent free in my head.















  • We play +2s, Reverse, and +4 wilds can be stacked. A +4 being played needs a colour declaration, and a +2/reverse of that colour can continue the stack.

    Usually this means +4 will kill the pile and the unfortunate sod is picking up 6, or 8, or whatever… But sometimes, they magically have the correct Reverse, or +2 and escape with their life.

    An alternative side rule we play is chains. I play a green 3, I can immediately play a green 4, then a red 4… Until I can no longer play matching number, or consecutive colour, or effect card.

    Mostly because we used to play a card game we called Blackjack, that is basically Uno, but with chaining. Aces were wild, 2s were pick up 2, 8s were miss a go, Jacks of spades/clubs were pick up 7, Jacks of hearts/diamonds did something else.


  • I have audiobooks on a 30min sleep timer, shake to reset timer, and a 30 min rewind when my sleep timer expires.

    I either get sleep, or progress through the story. Win-win.

    I make some nods to sleep hygiene: my phone goes black and white before bed. Some problem apps are soft locked. But I’m not great at the practice. Regardless, my sleep problems are chronic pain related, so sometimes I just have to rest and wait/hope for exhaustion to take me.
