I’m home at last. I actually get to spend like 9 consecutive days here without setting foot in an airplane or driving hundreds of miles…and it’s such a relief for now. And it’s so nice to be sent this soothing image.
Now I get to sleep in a little while.

Hey PZ, do you know who the artist is? This would make a really cool print.

Hopefully your drive home wasn’t in pouring rain like mine was tonight. Sleep long and tight, and dream of the Trophy Wife™ and/or cephalopods.

Is that the moon making good its getaway before it is sucked into the morass of insanity that is the Earth? Slán libh, moon.

It descends. Soon it will be all around us.
Anyone got a palliative for tentacules and suckers and cinemagraphic skin?

Speaking of the Moon, this Halloween the moon will be full* – so watch out for were-squids!
*Well, technically just past full, but it will look like it is to the naked eye.

And Dreaming PZ slept in his cold fastness, dreaming sanguine dreams of seeing his enemies consumed.

The displaced moon looks a lot like this flaming asteroid, sent by aliens on a collision course with Earth.

P Z, If you want to chill out on your vacation at moderate cost, this would provide the additional advantage of Kraken-spotting!

I marvel all the time at how you travel and party that much every weekend while teaching a new course on cancer biology during the week. Hats off, PZ.

Wow, I knew mimic octopi were talented but I didn’t know they could do that. Well played. Mr. Pus, well played :)
