It's impressive that Big Tech was like: We aren't douchy enough. What if we made asshole intelligence and burned up some of the earth's power and water faster?

I do not work for the shelter. Just been sharing MELIA for awhile now. The shelter does post videos on Facebook, Instagram and X. It's under "Adopt MELIA & Friends". I only have Bluesky. I post videos as I receive them. Check her out below. 💗

The bird's Christmas pictures are here #parrotsky #birdsky #conure #cockatiel
Picture of a small green parrot standing on my arm looking at camera in front of a Christmas tree It took (no joke) around 50 attempts to get a non blurry photo because she kept moving and she is kind of the same colour of the tree Small grey parrot with yellow face standing on my finger in front of a Christmas tree In contrast it only too 4 attempts to get this photo

Charlie is looking/acting a lot healthier. He's eating, playing and even trying to steal my food again.
The lump on his chest has also gone down a lot. He's still unfortunately underweight and his face isn't as vibrant as it used to be

Another comic from this past year. Sometimes I'm in awe about how incredibly small birds can be.
In a comic strip panel, person in a red shirt walks through a sunlit forest. The text says "Sometimes I go looking for a tiny part of the universe." "This part only takes up as much space as: half an apple, a salt shaker, or 2 ping pong balls." Each of these items is shown. Galaxies and stars swirl as the text says "But somehow, in an unfathomably huge universe," and then there's a complex mess of forest leaves, with one tiny Wilson's warbler in one corner, and the text says "this one tiny part". There's a close up of the warbler, blazing yellow against a sparkly yellow background, and the text says "can fill up my whole heart."

A black ballpoint pen drawing of the Mari Lwyd, an undead horse skull with body hidden under sheets or robes. Here she stands facing to the left of the image, in full profile. She wears a long cloak that has a hood, and gathers up on the ground with the excess length. Her eye is filled in with silver Polychromos. She has little jingly bells around the base of her ear, and the top and back of her head is covered with little flowers and leaves. From the foliage and the bells, ribbons and braids with more bells hang down her back. The background is blue Ecoline/watercolour, very splashy and patchy

A black ballpoint pen drawing of the Mari Lwyd, an undead horse skull with body hidden under sheets or rodes. Here her body is facing away and is covered in a cloak with a hood, but her head is turned to look back at the viewer, so the skull is mostly side on. The back of her head is covered in flowers and leaves, with ribbons and a braid flowing out and draping down along her back and body. Her ears have small bells at the base. The background is a mix of blue and pink Ecoline/watercolour, with blue at the top, blending into pink at the bottom. The watercolour is very splashy and patchy. There are thin border lines in gold and silver, and the eye is filled in with silver

The second he saw what i was doing he started hissing at the syringes
