Uncharismatic Fact of the Day
How could would it be to have swords for teeth? That's exactly how the Palestine kukri snake got its name! This species has especially large, curved back teeth which look similar to a type of large knife known as a kukri.

If you send me proof that you’ve made a donation to UNRWA or another organization benefiting Palestinians, I’ll make art of any animal of your choosing.
Remember, the donation can be in any amount– every dollar counts!

Ben Galpin killing it as Jonathan already - he sounds so affable and charmed and just a touch bewildered by his adventures, and his Concentrating Voice when he's writing memoranda is so endearing. Re:Dacula is going to be a game-changer for me this year, I can feel it

I started reading Varney the Vampire, and I'm pretty sure that if the Dracula crew ever met him, they would instantly adopt him because he's such a sad wet cat of a man.
