Tesla’s shareholders just lost another $38,640,000,000 today — a total $TSLA loss of $600 billion since December. Tesla’s CEO was not in the office. In literally any other public company ever, this would be the point where the CEO gets fired.

Paph. wenshanense syn. conco-bellatulum. Orchids are the most loved and admired and collected flowers in the world. This species from East Asia, is well known and very popular. I hope, it will conquer your heart.

The sublime and the ridiculous today on Fuerteventura. Canary Island Daisy was originally a Fuerteventura endemic, but has since been introduced elsewhere in the Canary archipelago. Barbary Ground Squirrel, an African continental native, was introduced in 1965 to Fuerteventura, where it thrives...
