If you are shameless I will fix that

My hypothesis that oatmeal with textures isn't as putrid, has more evidence. Had it w granola and honey, ate a peach on the side when I grew tired of the texture. It was a half serving btw. One day I will like oatmeal.

The theme of Rabbi Yirmiya's questions and the reaction to them are literally an entire section of his Hebrew Wikipedia page:

I hear y'all like birds, so here's a bird. It's an African spotted eagle owl. Which is kind of two birds if you think about it. Even though it's one bird. And not an eagle at all, and totally just an owl. Shut up. (I got to do some falconry in Ireland and it is a delight. This bird was the best.)

Acorn ants, Temnothorax curvispinosus, in an old acorn in Illinois. They need an acorn in a particular stage of decay, usually a year old and already hollowed out. If you're looking for acorn ants, you won't find them in the fresh ones.

the void isn't lonely-it's just room to breathe, I am grateful for a stillness that asks nothing of me #forestfriday #getalittlelost #nature #scape #landscape #words #lifeisbeautiful

I like their big silly heads Cratomus megacephala

I get you generally shouldn't intervene when a country's government is doing poorly because its a violation of their sovereignty but I think in certain situations its ok. Given recent experiences I have changed my tune a teeny little bit

But let's not vote for Kamala because she's not hard enough on Israel

how cool is this - young aspen trees are flourishing in Yellowstone thanks to wolves!! since their reintroduction, elk numbers have dropped and overgrazing has eased, allowing aspens to grow tall again. a living reminder that when predators return, entire ecosystems can heal.

OH MY FUCK THEY ACTUALLY DID THAT

We're talking about the 10th anniversary of Watch Dogs 2 at San Diego Comic-Con. Here's how the game predicted the rise of surveillance in society.

I got sober about five months after Craig Ferguson did this monologue. Must’ve watched this clip a thousand times in those early days. Hard to remember now, but not many admirable people talked publicly about sobriety circa 2007 — or had compassion for a young woman in crisis. This was invaluable. 🙏

I like bee butts and I cannot lie... . . I don't know who took this picture butt it rules.

I'm trying to eat my vegetables but I'm nervous and lowkey. The cogs of my machinery have slowed significantly.

A native fish species is eating some of the most damaging invasive species in the Great Lakes…AND making a significant impact! Freshwater Drum: The overlooked native fish that has been crushing trillions of Zebra & Quagga Mussels in Lake Erie www.canr.msu.edu/news/freshwa...

“ excuse me sir, you have a little somethin’ somethin’ on your beak you might want to wipe off” So many birds are very busy right now catching insects to feed their babies. This American Robin had caught so many Damselflies and/or dragonflies that they barely all fit in his beak! #Birds 🪶

Get rid of your imposter syndrome (which tends to afflict smart people more than dumb people anyway). NO ONE is a "real expert." You have every right to be there. And you can make an enormous difference if you're in the room at the right time. Get involved. Participate. You can matter.

On a rainy day a Downy Woodpecker was shocked to discover the suet feeder was completely empty! He noticed the finches were eating from a round thing and checked it out. The finches left. A Carolina Chickadee was brave and came to share the round feeder and the woodpecker liked the safflower seeds!🪶

I almost forgot - as I got in the office yesterday morning at 8:30, this little rascal was inside and looking out a floor length window. No idea how it got in and didn’t think I could catch. But super slomo from behind worked! Back outside you go. #herps Western Fence lizard

Isn’t the Talmud like multiple centuries of arguments on Wikipedia talk pages?

The gall of Spotify noticing I'm trying to listen to Black jazz, then autoplaying white funk while I have no control over my mom's head unit.

Wait. I'm getting upset thinking about people who pretend to be vampires online everyday all day. What am I doing here. My man you've got a world to fix and these people are roleplaying vampire porn in their bedrooms. Posts deleted. I'm normal now

Will never forgive bloodthirsty goyim for making me flinch when goyim criticize Israel even though I am also a staunch critic. I'm flinching from the implied distain for Jews and desire to see us slaughtered, not the content of the message... Lmfao

So. I did it. Lotta people gonna be mad about this one. Show it some love?

Just a screaming wren. But also a pert little bird butt, I suppose. #BirdOfTheDay #OpenBeaks #ButtShots? 📷🌿🪶

Uh oh. Local guy who gets paid very soon opened up Facebook marketplace while visiting a major metropolitan area

I checked the Somber Reflections stack and Lindsey has his own box! Can’t remember exactly what he did to earn it but it must have pissed me off but good. Milkshake time!

A big branch in our walnut tree snapped last night (we slept right thru it). It took out the bird feeder, and when I went out to inspect the damage this morning our local nuthatches were raising a ruckus until I rigged up a temporary feeder. I feel the ruckus was directed at me 😁

My only complaint about Emergency On Planet Earth is that in present times there's a lot more to SOS about. It should be a lot longer. But it would insist on itself, if that was the case.. Its the perfect length... But it could use some more examples of shit going wrong

The bathroom has no business often being the most sensory friendly room in a building. I feel like an asshole sitting in here for an hour because I need dark and quiet
