Carnivalia, and an open thread

A few recent carnivals to keep you busy:

The Tangled Bank

The next Tangled Bank will be at Lab Cat on Wednesday. Send links to me or [email protected].

I’m still collecting submissions for the Circus of the Spineless at the end of February— send me links to your invertebrate-centric articles.

    I’ll be across the street at the tavern before the show, look for the guy with the red carnation pale blue t-shirt with the ape -> man ring graphic.

    I attended a Darwin birthday party last night at a local natural history museum and won a door prize: a Charles Darwin bobblehead figurine! Eat your hearts out.

    Joel Achenbach:

    The new rule is: Everyone can be a hero, and if you’re just sitting on the curb, clapping, you might as well be a paramecium. An intestinal parasite. A virus buried in a bacterium. If you have a shred of self-respect, you must be a star, a beacon of glory, a supernova shining from the cosmic firmament, particularly during the November and May sweeps.

    America has become a land where modesty is considered slightly pathological, and potentially curable with medication.
