1,550 years ago, someone ate a rattlesnake whole—and we have poo to prove it

That night we split a rattlesnake and danced beneath the stars

That person either won a bet, or lost one.

People have been putting the wrong things in their mouths since we developed mouths. Is a whole snake really so much stranger to us than, say, Tide pods?

At least a rattlesnake has nutritional value along with the toxicity. Tide pods only have toxicity. So maybe people have gotten stupider.

Counterpoint: The bright colors and round shape of Tide Pods triggers the berry-seeking ape brain in us, and look like candy. Snakes, on the other hand, look like snakes.

Now I want to do my laundry with Tide snakes.

Yes. Tide Pods look delicious because anything that looks like candy is more appealing to buyers. Snakes don't look like candy.

Although... maybe we should make candy look like snakes. Quick, who here has more money than sense??

And I was feeling sorry for myself, just because the yoghurt I ate this morning was a week past its date.

This is weird and I'm rattled.

No need to boa on about it.

How else do you respond to news of this scale??
Silent said @ 10:00am GMT on 2nd May
Honestly? I'll just slither away.
