When you were a kid, those golden oldies were the absolute bangers your parents loved

Pallid Harrier showed superbly this evening over Llanrhidian Marsh in the soft light. Best views yet. At dusk a male Hen Harrier and (I think) a ringtail joined the party, the former briefly tussling with the Pallid. Glossy Ibis in again behind sewage works. #birdingWales #rareBirdsUK #UKWildlife

Chicago journalist Debbie Brockman, who was thrown to the ground & handcuffed by ICE, has been released without charges

DHS said she assaulted an officer, but eye witnesses claim she didn’t

The lack of charges makes it clear that ICE is lying to try and cover up the fact that they attack the press

A stick, hanging in mid-air?
What's going on?

Hazel glue fungus!

Keeping a dead twig attached to a living stem allows the glue fungus to break it down without competition from the many other fungi that work at ground level. Nature is *so* amazing!

The oil depot in Russian-occupied Feodosia in Crimea, Ukraine, has been hit once again. The Russian air defense is wildly firing around.

Listen, any literary figure who dresses in a hat that threatens the historical Kings of the Belgians (the Worst) is OK with me.

Papa Smurf wears a Phrygian cap, most often associated with the French Revolution, indicating Smurf Village had a monarchy it has since overthrown. This makes Papa Smurf, de facto head of state post-revolution, akin to Robespierre. In this essay I will —
An image of Papa Smurf, a small blue man with a white beard. He’s wearing red trousers that lead into shoes and a red cap that slouches forward.

This is really an unhealthy attitude for amateurs generally but especially at younger ages:

I tried to arrange a French exchange last year with the daughter of my French exchange from the 1990s with a teenage kid of friends and colleagues here. The amount of them who said they'd be dropped from their GAA team if they went to France for three weeks was genuinely shocking.

After spending 43 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, evidence hidden by the prosecution reversed his conviction. Rather than finally enjoying freedom, ICE abducted him for deportation

Depraved.

I lived in Portland, Oregon for a couple of years in the mid-nineties.
I loved it.
Portland, please never change.

Private Eye offers up an excellently scornful commentary on the relentless polling. It’s become ridiculous and has oversimplified our politics to dangerous levels of stupid and irresponsible.
SHOCK POLL:
NIGEL FARAGE WILL BE PM TOMORROW
IN an amazing poll conducted
by The Pointless Polling Company, it was revealed that voters' intentions
may well change over the next three and a half years and at present it's 100 percent impossible to guess what the next government might look like.
However, 99 percent of journalists
agree that it would be much more fun if we had an election tomorrow and everybody resigned and everything was chaos and Farage had a go at being PM, just for the hell of it, because it was so much fun when
Brexit happened and then the government kept falling every five minutes and we could write endless pieces about (cont. p94)
