— November 13, 1912 / Letters to Felice

[The following lines were written on November 13, 1912, but not delivered until Sunday, November 17, by a Berlin florist’s messenger, together with a bunch of roses. The following day, the 18th, was Felice’s birthday]

“I thought he was perfect for it from the start and remained so. Timmy’s incredibly sharp, witty, ambitious, kind of wonderfully odd and cool. And also, I felt he was hungry for a role like this. Plus, I felt he kind of could really embody a lot of things that Bob was, especially in that early time in his life.”

Animal of the Day!

Pacific Blackdragon (Idiacanthus antrostomus)

(Photo from Oceana)

Conservation Status- Least Concern

Habitat- Eastern Pacific Ocean

Size (Weight/Length)- 60 cm

Diet- Small fish; Crustaceans

Cool Facts- Just when you thought the ocean couldn’t get any weirder, or worse depending on who you ask, the Pacific blackdragon is out there. Despite being less than a meter long, these fish are masters of their deep sea home. Found up to 2,000 meters below sea level, where no light permeates, the Pacific blackdragon can absorb up to 99.95% of light so that it practically appears invisible. Even their stomachs and throats are black to eliminate light produced from the bioluminescent fish they eat. Females have a long chin whisker that they flick to lure in prey. Males are tiny, lack a digestive system, and only live long enough to mate with a female. 

Rating- 12/10 (Still have well-developed eyes despite living in the deep.)

Dear Senator Talmge [sic]

I am in the Boy Scouts. I am

working on Citizenship in the Nation

a merit. One of the requirements

is to write to a Senator or Congress,

and give my views on a national

problem. This is the worst problem

I can think of. You can not buy

much canady [sic] for a nickel now. I

like sugar. But mother can not buy it

because it is to [sic] high. She has to use

a substitute. Can you see what you

can do about this problem. Thank you.

Sincerely Yours:

Jamie Bates

Happy 4th Death Day to

Unus Annus

[tswiftupdatess]

1 year ago today, Taylor Swift and Gracie Abrams went out to dinner to celebrate their GRAMMYs nominations and then ended up writing their song ''us.''

'We had gone to dinner, and it was in November. It was so sweet. She [Taylor] was like, we need to go to dinner and celebrate the Grammy nominations. And so we went to dinner and we were catching up, I hadn't seen her in a second, so we were celebrating. She was in the middle of Tortured Poets, I was in the middle of The Secret Of Us at the time. And we were just talking about our lives and how much we loved the albums we were working on. And so we were like, okay, well, neither of us had heard the songs. She was like, we have to go back to the house and listen to everything. So we literally went like song for song. She played me one, I played her one, she played me one, I played her one. It felt like we were theatre kids, just, like, running around the kitchen, like, fully physically performing these songs. Somebody said, was that picture of you on the floor after you listened to The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived? It literally was. It was after that song. And that's the story really. And then we wrote us.''
