Took my own advice and ran this morning without headphones, to air out the brain. Highly recommended, especially now.

World's richest man ends America's modest aid to the world's poorest people. I'm not a big believer in hell, but willing to make an exception

RIP 907F

Yeah, this is exactly right - and goes for much of the selling off of our system to plutocrats by both parties. I heard it expressed as: "We are slowly coming to realize that much of our rules of governing are a loose set of norms and gentleman's agreements."

i just cannot get over how much the administration’s response to the crash shows a profound disrespect for the lives of the people they are supposed to serve

He is going to keep abusing young victims and secretly recording or sharing peoples material without consent

Reflections. Loch Chon on a still sunrise. The wind soon picks up at this loch so still conditions tend to be neither regular or long lasting in my experience. I spent a few minutes frantically moving around the shore until I settled on this composition. #photography #nikon #lochchon #scotland

For the latest Unshocked episode w/ @mehdirhasan.bsky.social we talked about - what else? - shock. How Trump is using "shock and awe" as a governing strategy and how we fight back. zeteo.com/p/its-all-ab...

Here are some nice mushrooms

Well, I killed my Facebook account tonight. They make it really difficult. None of the online tutorials of the last weeks, nor Meta's own guide, were accurate. I had to intuit my way to the final deletion. If you log in again before they get around to deleting it, then you'll have to do it again.

I didn't realize this. Thanks K Kelley!

The night is the realm of wonder. #nightscapes #astrophotos

Oooh! Super cool.

Smoosh.

Good night.

Bluesky is built on an open source protocol that can be moved to another server once they start federation capabilities. Meaning baddies can buy the company but you could move your account somewhere else. If we can do that for YouTube TikTok etc then a few evil nerds wouldn't control our brains

Grey Poupon Country Dijon is an excellent mustard. Nice, course grind, and an exceptional, wasabi like, sinus heat. If you like mustard, then you should give this a go.

GLP-1 agonists being a good treatment for schizophrenia is so freaking weird.

Happy #RoseWednesday 🌱

Jaysus. A few little searches for "fitness," "powerlifting," and "Olympicweightlifting," and now my feed is full of bears and beefcakes posing down. Be careful what you search for. Definitions can be fungible.

Than any number of children, or anyone else.

Somebody just won the meme Olympics.

I love pileateds. I saw my first one in Bella Coola, BC. They are surprisingly large and powerful looking birds.
