Us pocket-friends can wait a tad

No but seriously, it's one of those oversized Toblerone's right?

Ugh, so good. And now I am the mood for some, right as I'm about to go to bed

This backfired disastrously

@ariadne @alice the prices are structured like that because they're taking advantage of cruise ship tourists.

Locals are encouraged to buy a membership if you want to go in more than once a year.

Also, yeah you can speed walk the entire thing in 15 min, if you slow down and look at the exhibits for longer? You can see more stuff.

@pencilears @alice i've seen it, i see no need to buy a membership

@Aprazeth they're a little beat up from playing guitar for the past few days, but I'm happy with how my attempt at funfetti cupcake nails turned out.

Polyester is a category of polymers that contain one or two ester linkages in every repeat unit of their main chain.

Yeah, less plastic, definitely.

@the but wait! "Polyesters include some naturally occurring chemicals, such as those found in plants and insects." so we're saved!

Same. When I had my Woodland Park membership I'd close the place down once a week as part of my commute, spending an hour at a single exhibit. Do recommend!

@ariadne@social.treehouse.systems @alice@lgbtqia.space go on pride night, get drunk with a buncha queers and pet sea urchins together

[alice@lgbtqia.space]

@crow wait, there's a Pride night there?

@ariadne

The tags sure look and feel like recycled cardboard and hemp fiber, but according to the label the toy is all new plastic.

@badsamurai when I was a teen I would go to the zoo like weekly. I'd say I was going in to get a job application in the food court, then enjoy the zoo for a few hours.
