Let's talk about these two department store owners: brother and sister Louis Bamberger and Caroline Bamberger Fuld. From Newark, New Jersey. They are random people, basically. But in the late 1920s, with fascism taking over Europe, they made a choice that profoundly changed the world: 🧵

Good morning! #emu #cute #nature #animals

This is utterly fucking disgraceful.

One thing i think that drives me insane about GenAi is that it's denying the absolute mind-blowing power of actual nature and the physical world. For something weak and fake

After getting some nice shots east of Eundunda, I packed up to drive home, but quickly stopped and set up again between Eudunda and Truro as I saw the sky light up with this. I thought it was over - but it was really just getting started 😊

occasionally you come across a youtube comment that is such a beautifully realized little wisp of human emotion it makes you stop dead in your tracks for a second

BILL GATES: “The picture of the world’s richest man killing the world’s poorest children is not a pretty one.” @financialtimes.com www.ft.com/content/bdd9...

Trump and Musk cuts have killed Sesame Street, a brilliant source of pre-school education with decades of awards & happier, more literate children its legacy. The bad monsters came for the good ones.

This is two global elections in ONE WEEK where the conservative candidate trying to become prime minister not only led his party to a big loss but lost their own seat in parliament (!) in huge upsets. We are global pariahs unseen since the end of the Cold War and need stronger domestic opposition.

This bright-eyed, punk-haired, newborn Victoria Crowned Pigeon will eventually grow up to look like the beauty at R. Originally from the forests of New Guinea, its status is “near threatened”; it’s said to be the nearest remaining relative of the extinct dodo www.wric.com/news/baby-vi...

Hear me out. No more interviews of the weird pronatalist couple. Interview the neighborhood dads. The guy who mows the lawn of an elderly neighbor. The people who live self-sacrificial lives that make other people’s lives better. Normalize that. A crisis in masculinity? Highlight this man.

Just fucking getting newsed in the face every fucking day

I just want the confidence of a 1920’s ice delivery man

This is mad

#Squirrels are nocturnal creatures, so it’s no surprise to see this one running in an exercise wheel at night. They’re naturally more active after dusk, using this time to get their energy out. This one’s doing the nighttime workout routine, with a surprise ending

the thing I hate most about that rfk quote is that autistic lives have value and worth and beauty and dignity whether they are able to do the things other people do or not. no one is defined by ability or lack thereof and to frame divergence as lack is monster stuff, utterly godless

🧵 Here is Earth's rotation realized in an unusual way: using a camera scanning the landscape of Tivoli, Namibia, Bartosz Wojczyński focused on the sky. He created a timelapse spanning 24 h that has a focal point in the sky rather than on the ground. ➡️ apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap20070... 🔭 🧪 #galactic

Ok, some of you were *nearly* there with the ID of yesterday’s mudlarking find as stoneware. So pleased with this beauty - a 19th century stoneware blacking bottle. Blacking ink was widely used during this period to clean and polish shoes, boots, floors & doorsteps as city life was dirty & dusty 1/

I am working out of a public library and there are a good number of people who seem to be on hard times using the facilities for various reasons like job searching, entertainment, charging peripherals, using the bathroom, etc., and I am struck by how important it is that libraries continue to exist

One of the really special things about Sesame Street was always these little art films that were less about teaching a specific thing than they were about instilling a sort of meditative sense of wonder at how the world works.

More willy-willy action from the Willowie Plain.

I suppose the story right above the Palmer ad is an ad that The Age can be bought if the price is right.

🧵Spotted While Roaming in Aotearoa New Zealand: A man (80s?) is leaning heavily on hiking poles while wandering along with his elderly three-legged dog. They might not be fast going, but they are fast friends. Taking their time, admiring the view. A river unhurriedly gurgling along nearby. (1)
