No need to feel dumb. I only knew what an apiary was because I once read a book where the MC's father was a bee keeper.

Nope. Looks like we gonna have bee houses!

Happy birthday! 🥳

He looks like Pedro Pascal but like...10-15 years older.

🌍 EU introduces 30% reduction targets on food waste by 2030!

Recent negotiations saw ambitious new environmental targets being passed for food and fashion. These included reducing food waste across households, retailers and restaurants and cutting the 25-40% of fabric wasted in clothes production.

☀️ California gets their first solar-covered canal!

Placing panels over waterways generates clean energy while keeping the panels cooler, saves space compared to traditional solar farms, and reduces water loss from evaporation. There’s only a handful in the world so far - hopefully changing soon!

🦬 Bison make an extraordinary comeback in Yellowstone National Park!

Conservation efforts helped grow a population from a few dozen to 5,000, and a new study shows their grazing helps spread nutrients that boost grass growth and make it 150% more nutritious, helping to revive entire ecosystems!

Still waiting and hoping for the DLC. I want more Rye plz.😭

🪸Philippines declares over 60,000 hectares of ocean as protected landscape!

These waters contain some of the coral reefs most likely to survive the impacts of climate change, and this huge commitment brings them much closer to the goal of safeguarding 30% of land and waters by 2030.

If you need a feel good change rabbit hole to go down in video form, these folks on youtube have videos about earth restoration efforts and how they're succeeding and people who are contributing to it, and I find they leave me feeling energized and positive

I felt inspired tonight, so I just paid a tree-planting foundation to plant 20 trees of various types. I hope they grow big and strong. Next month I'll plant more.

Pet parrots which typically live alone (whilst those in the wild live in large flocks) were given the technology to call each other. They would use it for up to three hours a day, and developed favourite friends 💔

❌ Plans for a Neo-Nazi festival in Great Yarmouth, UK were CANCELLED after public pressure.

Over 34,000 people wrote to the Home Office to raise concerns after campaigning from anti-fascist organisation Hope Not Hate, resulting in the venue pulling out and the festival being cancelled.

I like the word "defenestration", it's so fancy.

Huh. Gilroy looks like Elliott if instead of a whimsical and romantic writer Elliott were just a major asshole.

What if...part 2 where Farmer gets the lobster for Elliott as a gift? Farmer earns a lot, they can afford it. :3

Recently I saw a video showing a peach festival somewhere in South Korea. Wrong country but I can't help but think that Shou would love it. Heck, I would love to go myself, I love peaches.

All they had to do was bring the game to version 3.7, as they said they would, and keep it that way. It's in the name: Classic. But noooo, they couldn't help themselves and just had to keep fiddling and messing it up. FFS.

Dungeons, I don't really care for. I only do them if I really have to and if I can solo them. I'm more into side quests. One of the things I loved about Aion was that it had lots of side quests. And yes, they were mostly "kill x mobs" and "get x stuff" but I didn't mind. I liked them.

Welp. Guess I'm gonna have to start looking for a new MMO soon because NCSoft gone and ruined Aion Classic. Again. Only took them 4 years. *sigh* Maybe I'll try FF14 again.
