I live in North Carolina , and I was surprised that the Greensboro zoo has so few firearms . It's sobering that Lucy registered surprise at this number . I know private citizens with more extensive arsenals in this state . You guys really have no idea how insane it is here .

Great ep, really chill and fun! Shrikes are really cool: "Shrikes are known for their habit of catching insects and small vertebrates and impaling them on thorns, branches, the spikes on barbed-wire fences, or any available sharp point. This helps them to tear the flesh into smaller, more conveniently sized fragments, and serves as a cache so that the shrike can return to the uneaten portions at a later time. This same behaviour of impaling insects serves as an adaptation to eating the toxic lubber grasshopper, Romalea microptera. The bird waits 1–2 days for the toxins within the grasshopper to degrade before eating it. Loggerhead shrikes kill vertebrates by using their beaks to grab or pierce the neck and violently shake their prey"
