Verena took these incredible photos of a baby fox we saw at Fasanerie Wiesbaden (a kind of wildlife park) the other day. We just stood there for several minutes, staring and making incoherent sounds. It was cuteness personified. It was beauty itself. It was babyfox. Its mother was nearby, taking …
I’m seeing/getting the first few complaints about Phenomenon 32 being socialist/atheist propaganda, and I already feel much better. I was wondering when that was going to happen.

Yes, you’re right. I overreacted. I behaved in a way that can only be described as silly, and fed the trolls some prime trollfood. Granted, the attacks were more personal than usual this time, but being hated by idiots comes with being any kind of artist. Especially a silly one …
