Azure Blue Sage - my daughter got seeds for it and planted them last year. This year, it came back and I just missed getting picture of a hummingbird feeding at each of the blooms! The screenshot is from an app called PictureThis - it identifies plants for you, and gives you facts about them, how to care for them, if they’re toxic, what wildlife use them, etc. I highly recommend the app. The free version is useful too!

TSG, a major movie financier, is suing Disney for alleged breach of contract. TSG has helped finance a lot of movies in Hollywood over the years, including films at Sony and Warner Bros., and Fox, and claims that the folks at Disney “have tried to use nearly every trick in the Hollywood accounting book” to hold onto cash that TSG feels its owed.

As the Wall Street Journal notes, its super unusual for a spat between a studio and film financiers to become public. Unfortunately that was before studios like Disney were so well integrated vertically that they that they could own everything from ideation to production to distribution and keep it all on their own platform—effectively keeping all the money in their own pockets too. We’re in a new era of streaming, and the rules of Hollywood are being rewritten before our very eyes.

A good quote about Russia's war in Ukraine, from a member of extended family who witnessed today's rocket strikes:

"I've seen a lot of things, but this... This is pure idiocy, only idiots could do something like that. Putin is not well in his head - everyone knows that; but over there [Russia] the people in general are not well in their heads; zombified".
