Photo of Silvius the little Latin mouse, at a birthday party with a woodland theme. He's wearing a special green tunic with fly agaric decorations, and holding a mouse-sized mushroom cupcake. Next to him is a regular sized cupcake with red and white toadstool icing, but it's not poisonous at all!

Remember when they created a vaccine for Pertussis? 1939.
And people took it, because they wanted to live?

Good times.

Children from an earlier time lined up to get vaccines from nurses.

I am ecstatic to report that I can actually (barely) fit in an Autozam AZ-1, and it rules. That engine is so growly and the turbo whistle adds to it. And it’s tight and light. Though I’m not sure I fit well enough to try to add one to my collection someday.

I was not able to solve the second one just by staring at it... But with a physical/tangible checkerboard I found immediately a way! Of course I cannot exclude the effect of some unconscious smoldering inside my brain due to previous staring... But I really feel concrete objects make some difference for my mind.

"I probably talk to [the Harris campaign] 3, 4 times a week about what's the best approach to taxing the wealthy and increasing revenue and cutting costs for that matter," Mark Cuban has said.

Funniest thing I've read all day @unusual_whales. A BILLIONAIRE advising #KamalaHarris on "the best approach to taxing the wealthy", and where to 'cut costs'.🀣

My advice? Execute and expropriate.
That'll Cut(sic) Costs πŸ˜Žβ˜ οΈπŸ‘»

In the depths of rehearsal for my next show, coming up
Simple wooden chair with a notebook open to a well marked-up set list and two guitar capos resting on it, a harmonica in a holder hanging from the side; my beautiful old friend the Lowden cedar-top jumbo cutaway guitar rests on a stand to the right, 1968 guild 12-string on the left always looks to me like it's wearing a tux, with its shiny yellow pine top and jet black pick guard; an old spinet to the left of that. An overstuffed yellow print couch from the 80s behind the chair.

Always check your spelling 🐭
A social post from @UncleDuke1969 that says: Although this might seem a bit pricey at first, please keep in mind that it takes approximately two dozen mice to make one pound, which comes out to only about nineteen cents per mouse.

There is a darkride in the german theme park "Fantasialand" called " Mouse au Chocolat". It's not a typo: The story of the ride is that the royal bakery has been overrun by mice (and they hired you to get rid of them).

I suspect, that the label is generally wrong. The mousse is much too light for chocolate (or they saved a lot on dark chocolate). In addition, the garnish on the right edge is untypical - parsley and paprika? In my humble opinion, as a trained chef, a no-go.
