i’ve never seen lincoln’s and missed the grssshopper sparrows this year. i did see my first fox sparrows thid year though. good luck on your search!

i’m excited for the white-throated and white-crowned sparrows to come back through where i am. not to mention the packs of juncos that run around making their little lazer gun sounds.

owls don’t feel a need to delude themselves.

there are always bees in the banana stand.

i failed to consider snail h.r. policy

very composed bop

what good friends! the ant for considering the snail’s mobility restrictions, the snail for devoting two months of its life to get there.

first thing I thought about when bezos did his we’re gonna move workers to space schtick.

yup. best job i ever had is toast now.

i heard him on the landback podcast and he seems to really care about justice for indigenous people.

first comic that I literally lol’ed at in a long time. thanks!

I’d love to read something positive. is there an article you can share?

my first day of eighth grade (read: long ago) i was walking to my bus stop when i was struck by an automobile. it was a cool morning and the high schooler who was driving was running late (speeding, didn’t defrost his windshield, probably distracted). i went flying into a puddle at the end of a neighbor’s driveway. he kept driving, claimed he thought he hit a mailbox. probably the most fucked up part was the cop on the scene blaming me for walking on the right-hand side of the road. apparently I was supposed to know better. so, yeah, acab and fuck cars.

birds have been on the decline for decades.

so to sum up, populations of insects that feed on/harm trees are growing and more able to complete their life cycles given the warmer winters. i don’t really subscribe to the philosophy of hobbes, but this makes me think of the road and how there were just no more trees. would be a brutish existence indeed never to hear a bird sing again nor find shade beneath the branches of a towering oak.

looks like a sword, but I think they’re just swinging from some steel cables so your point stands.

is this part of the famous miaoux tapestry?

a whole story in two pictures. beautiful.

scully’s not wrong. i’ll die under whatever economic system. I’ll just do it sooner under capitalism.

Great shots of some cool birds! I had a hard time this year finding Green Herons in my neck of the woods. Just saw my FOY last week.
