This week's links are few and late, because I've been in the hospital. But I'm fine now!

That's no rabbit hole, just a bunny fun house! Glad you're hospital stay was not a long one, Miss Cellania!
Glad you're okay now, Miss C! Love the bunnies graphic. And the Smithsonian photo contest winners.
I'm glad you're better. Good.
Welcome home! Stop going to the hospital and pretending to be Dr. Quackenbush!
OMG I had no idea that you were in the hospital when I complained about the low number of links! I'm so sorry! You still managed to post even though you were being torn asunder by doctors. Get recovered real quick.
(That last "Anonymous" comment was from me.) There is one more letter in wide use that is not taught in kindergarten. It is the sixth vowel, the schwa. It is represented in the dictionary as an upside down e, which I don't know how to make with my keyboard. It is a neutral sound, a cross between, uh, ah and eh. In California it is the only vowel, often heard on TV. When I moved to California from Upstate NY years ago, I had to learn to substitute schwas for all my vowels. That was so people wouldn't say, "You're from Noo Yawk, aren'tchuh" every time I opened my mouth.
Trump is a vile, evil man, but race IS a social construct.
Oh no! I suspected something was up but watching all the storms barrel across Kentucky thought it might be weather related. Hope all is well now.
Happy Friday!
And BTW, your site is a rabbit hole. A wondrous one sometimes and the reason why I've been coming here for so long. Good health to you.
Sorry to hear you have had health issues.
Glad you're ok.
I am always in awe how you manage to consistently create content, thru all your good times and bad times. Hope you recover well.
I also hope you have a swift and comfortable recovery.
In typical software, hold down the Alt key, then press 0601 on numeric keypad keys, then release Alt. That does not work here, so I let's see if copy and paste works: ə
