Eastern phoebes are fun to watch. They are flycatchers, and they will quickly dart from their perch to catch their prey in the air. Similarly, they fly over and dip in the water to drink and bathe too. You can see that in this video. https://youtu.be/R8ixSpILch8?si=ND1WX_Y2I5gsjf4G #birds

If you wonder if there is anything after death, think of a compost pile...

After death, there is life.

I tend to apply a lot of pushback on nuanced sophistry because COVID-19 kind of taught me that if you dismiss seemingly harmless sophistry like "oh it's not like I'm against COVID-19 vaccines or vaccines in general, I'm just not for mandatory vaccination rules", it won't take long for it to mushroom into a full blown anti-vaxx movement in your family and neighbourhood. Even amongst medical colleagues! So yeah, I'm "rude" I guess 😑.

Witnessing a homeless ‘sweep’ makes me so angry and sad; I can’t imagine how much worse it is for the people getting ‘swept’.

It is almost certain that China will peak emissions several years before 2030, perhaps as early as 2026,” said Adair Turner, chair of the Energy Transitions Commission.

So why isn’t China advertising the possibility of an early peak? “The Chinese, for whatever reason, are not realizing how important public statements are to winning the overall global debate on climate change,” Turner said. “It would be a very major step forward for the world if they did.”

77 yrs ago #OTD at Castle Recording Lab studio D in Nashville singer #HankWilliams signs away 50% of his #SongPublishing to session producer #FredRose's accountant son #WesleyRose of #AcuffRose.

The car he died in and blue #NudieSuit he wore when he died are on exhibit at the #museum dedicated to his life in #MontgomeryAlabama

“When the premier says teachers are practicing ‘emotional blackmail,’ do you think he’d speak that way to doctors or other professionals?” Marc said. “So why is it that when he speaks to teachers — who are mostly women, let’s be honest here — he’s so condescending? Because he knows that on some level, we’re soft-hearted and we’ll do whatever it takes for our kids. Not anymore. The only thing this government respects is strength. So I’m not bending anymore.”
