#AlphabetChallenge #WeekUforUnloved
Melting glacier in #France.
Loved by the people who live there (note the blanket in a futile attempt to prevent further melt) but unloved - enough - by the rest of the world to take meaningful action to stop it.

Sheepherders shelter in the #SierraNenadaMountains
Unloved prompt thoughts... Unloved = human disregard.
But a thing in decay IS loved by the organisms breaking it down, taking it back to ground.
In one way or another, isn't everything loved?

Within the #NevadaCemeteryDistrict - a taxpayer supported operation - we have LOTS of stories about Gold Rush families who lost someone...and here they remained when everyone else returned home to the Midwest or East.

"As fantastical as some of these stories are to the modern reader, they give us an insight into #CulturalAttitudes towards natural phenomena. Auroral histories also illuminate the gradual process by which people learned how they work."

😱🤮
Amazon announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.
UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.
Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.
This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Why Don’t People Return Their Shopping Carts? A (Somewhat) Scientific Investigation - by Hannah B. Waldfogel - Behavioral Scientist
For reasons I can’t fully explain, people’s failure to return their carts bothers me more than it probably should. But then I realized I can do something about it.

Since we no longer get adrenaline rushes from possibly being eaten by lions, the thrill of roller coasters, bungie jumping and telling apocalypse stories fills in the gaps.
Bunkers are another version of this...for people with too much money.

Back home after another fantastic photography trip to #Iceland (my 34th!).
Stopped along the south coast yesterday on my way back - these river estuaries are just incredible.

Re-posting for #ShareMondays2025 because I have way too many photos to review still and I like this one :)
Boom!
A good deal of my time spent on the beach at Jökulsárlón is trying to capture waves hitting icebergs, without the iceberg moving (and being blurred). Occasionally it all comes together :)

Oh, I love this. A new species of sea anemone was discovered recently that parks itself on top of a hermit crab shell like a hat. It seems to feed partly off the crab's faeces, but it also excretes a hard shell that extends the crab's home. In return, it's carried around the seafloor like a king.
