at work the other day this nice older woman asked me what pronouns i use and it caught me extremely off guard bc no one there had asked me that and i was also not expecting to have a conversation with her in the first place and i said I used they/them and she was like Ahh that’s nice i love that good for you :) and i just had a little spring in my step the rest of the day bc it was just a pleasant interaction. the thing is though. I do Not use they/them i use she/her. i just panicked in the moment and said the wrong answer

I sent a letter today - something I haven’t done for years

It’s full of plastic bread clips

It’s for Science

At the risk of loosing some mystery, I think I should add some context:

There’s this website-I mean, scientific organization called the Holotypic Occlupanid Reasurch Group.

They are a group of abiologists who study and classify Bread clips.

I found a species that has not yet been described:

Yay for citizen science 👍

wtf?

Apparently HORG is widely appreciated by pediatricians since knowing exactly what kind of Occlupanid a child may have swallowed makes removing it safely much easier

IIRC this is actually part of the reason HORG was started. A man swallowed a breadclip and the clip closed around part of his tissue linings (in his intestines I think?). The specific shape and flexibility of the clip were significant determining factors in the removal process, as some bread clips have spikes and prongs that would have made extraction more complicated. They started the taxonomy so they could work out extraction techniques for each type.
