The saddest thing I saw today

[james_davis_nicoll]

The local raccoon, still very round from all the winter fat it put on for a winter that never came, morosely examining the fencing the LRT people have run down the middle of Charles Street. After a while, it turned around and waddled back up the steps to Madison South....

(feral cat just goes up one side of the fence and down the other before repeating it on the next set of fences)

Another tragedy of global climate change: raccoon obesity.

But think how happy it makes all the raccoon physicists.

Although I guess they still need to be of uniform density. I guess that'll be stage 2.

And frictionless. Though that may be why it decided not to try the fence.
