In praise of binturongs

I recently learned about binturongs, ridiculous animals which look like a hybrid of roughly five different cute critters, galumph about the place, and smell suspiciously like popcorn1. Thank you to the algorithmic Youtube overlords for blessing me with the above video.

    This would be one of those shorter, untitled “note” posts, but if giving it a title in the RSS feed means at least one extra person finds out what a binturong is today, it’s worth it.

    @297 The temptation to impulse-buy a plush binty is strong… but the three plush otters already hanging over my desk are telling me no. (I swear they were all gifts. I’m easily placable like that.)
