I'm too old for New Year's resolutions, but there are a few birds I'd like to see and photograph this year —

🪶 Hoopoe
🪶 Glossy Ibis
🪶 Hen Harrier
🪶 Puffin

Did see a hen harrier fleetingly and puffins at too long a range this year but would love to get some good shots this coming year. We'll see!

It’s not “patriotic” to bail out Argentina while Americans are struggling, to build a ballroom while cutting SNAP benefits, or to pad your own pockets while claiming “affordability” is a hoax.

There are multiple people watching the Ravens-Packers game on their phone at the bar because it's only streaming on Peacock. Enshittification on all fronts.

„Quiet, Piggy!“ Just think about that for a minute, and what it means to live in a time when a President can assault a woman in public like that without any consequences.
It‘s quite a testimony to the age of regression we live in.

Mike Johnson is big mad that we forced through a petition and forced a vote on releasing the Epstein files.

So let’s do it again. This time to restore the ACA credits he stole from us:
Tell Congress: Support discharge petition to force vote on ACA tax credits

I'm a lifelong Buffalo Bills fan who has never been to a Highmark Stadium game (my family was poor and then we moved out of Buffalo when I was a teenager). I'm running out of time to catch a game in the stadium that defined football for me growing up so I think it's time: Dec 7.

All right, speaking of zombies from a few days ago... Time to share a guilty pleasure of mine.

Resident Evil, the movies.

Based on the hit game, this franchise follows Alice as she fights back against the evil Umbrella corp. while the apocalypse unfolds around them.

Who else loves these?

COP30 overpromised, underdelivered, empowered distractions, backtracked on issues and once again gave big oil and big ag a free pass.

Unfortunately, the suspicions of climate scientists (here in Brazil and abroad) were confirmed again.
