rabbits at night

Science has done it once again! We now have rabbits that glow!

By injecting luminescent proteins from a jellyfish into a rabbit, these bunnies can glow green!

Sadly, the name Bluebell isn’t too great when they glow green, but it’s still a funny joke. Well, it’s a kinda funny joke to anybody who gets it. Which might be one other person...maybe? No?

Ahem...Scientists are hoping that these glowing bunnies will help them find cures for diseases like hemophilia, Alzheimer’s, and HIV.

I have NO idea how, but I guess when you have a glowing bunny, they are pretty good at doing research. And not just research during the day, but at night, too! Because they can still see their work by glowlight!

It’s like breeding super-science bunnies! I don’t know why they don't do this to humans!

They’ve apparently done it to pigs, sheep, monkeys, puppies, and kittens. Oh, and bunnies, duh. Why not just glow some humans?

You know what would be cool? Kittens that glitter-in-the-dark. Like, you turn out the lights and they sparkle. Then, every night you could have a disco party! Or, anything smaller than the cat could have a little disco party. (Glitter Kitten would be a great name for a band.)

Wait...vampires glitter-in-the-light, don’t they? At least that one from that movie did. I don’t know how true that was. I think it was based on a true story, but sometimes those movies aren’t 100% true.

Or so I’m told.

But during the day is lame! Who can disco in the day? Disco happens at night. THE END.

Maybe in 14 billion years when the sun blacks out on us, everybody will glitter and every day can be a disco day/night!

That’s the future I see. And I’m pretty good at predicting stuff. I mean, I did predict the alien invasion last year. You might not remember that because you were hit with a forgetting ray. But it happened. And I predicted it. Totally true. Well…based on a true story.

I’m off to glitter. In the dark.

Enjoy Everything.

triple isn't very big

I love cotton balls! They're so useful! I mean, when you need something cottoned, then they can totally get the job done! Except they are too small!

I even buy the triple size cotton balls. TRIPLE! I can't imagine what single size cotton balls would look like. They're probably microscopic. As in, you would need four super strong microscopes to even SEE them.

Not even being overdramatic, either.

I wish they made them a little bit bigger. I know triple sounds great. Like, triple size cupcakes would be cool. But at that point, would they just become "cake?"

At what size does a cupcake become a cake? Are they related? I have seen giant cupcakes, but they look like cake. So are they the same? Are they different species in the Edible Kingdom?

Where in evolution did the cake and the cupcake split?

These are questions that are way above my head. I may have the occasional existential crisis in life, but this is TOO existential.

"Occasional Existential" would be a good name for a band, though.

Unfortunately, existentially and unexistentially speaking, I still don't have a solution to my cotton balls.

"The Cotton Ball Solution" would also be a cool name for a band. Or a book. About cupcakes. And bunnies. OH! Maybe they travel through time and save the world!

Or not...I really gotta stop watching so much Doctor Who.

I'm off to get bigger cotton balls.

Enjoy Everything.
