It's exactly 1 yr into Trump's 2nd term. On day 1, Trump declared a “national energy emergency,” reversing regs and opening millions of acres to oil and gas exploration. Coal leases and permitting were expedited. Plus, the US has left the Paris Agreement and other treaties.

Why? Because:
1-We listen to climate scientists, rather than greedy upstarts in the WH who have shares in the oil & gas industry;
2-There is scientific evidence of global warming caused by human oil & gas activities;
3-USA is the 2d largest contributor of greenhouse gases on the planet after China.

The #Oilers went 5–1–2 in their last eight games which included back-to-back shutouts without superstar Leon Draisaitl.

Take a look at how the team’s been doing in our latest Oil Check:
Oil Check 6: The Edmonton Oilers are finally kicking it into high gear
Our last Oil Check saw the team starting to roll in the post-Stuart Skinner era, led by an on-fire Connor McDavid, but then stumbling in the final couple of games of that stretch. The Edmonton Oilers went 5–1–2 in their last eight games, including back-to-back shutouts this past weekend. All three losses were by just one goal, while the team outscored their opponents 25–6 in the five victories.

this is ridiculous on multiple levels:

1) europe could hold off on expediting electric, but they're now heavily reliant on the us for gas/oil, which is subject to trump's tariff whims (& why is that? oh, right, his absurd push for greenland)
2) europe is on track to be self-sufficient in 2-4 years

God only knows how much money he & his family are making off the presidency that we will never know about?

What about the $500 million he’s stashed in Qatar from the sale of Venezuelan oil?

Who will control the $1 billion per country fee to join his “Board of Peace” while we can barely survive?

Is Trump's reason to put Venezuela oil $'s in Qatar related to possible laundering $'s to RUS-given RUS asset, Potra was bodyguard for Qatar Royal family?

Rust and Reverie

In early spring or sometimes late fall, I occasionally catch sight of rusty blackbirds (Euphagus carolinus). ...

1/2

#photo #photography #photographer #photographylovers #wildlife #nature #bird #birds #birding #birdwatching #birdphotography #blackbird #rustyblackbird
"The image captures a solitary rusty blackbird perched on a bare branch, its body angled slightly sideways as if pausing mid-thought. The bird’s plumage is a rich, glossy black, but under the morning light it shimmers with subtle hues of blue, violet, and charcoal, like oil on water. Its beak is sharp and slightly curved, and its eye—round, pale, and alert—gleams with quiet intensity, giving the impression that it’s watching something just beyond the frame. The background is a tangle of leafless branches, etched like veins against a bright, wintry sky. There’s no foliage to soften the scene—just the stark geometry of limbs and the crisp light of a cold season. The bird’s feathers appear slightly ruffled, as if it’s bracing against a chill breeze or preparing to take flight. The overall mood is quiet, contemplative, and slightly mysterious—like a moment suspended between stillness and motion. The photograph is signed “© Swede’s Photographs” in the bottom right corner, a gentle nod to the witness behind the lens." - Microsoft Copilot

Vincent van Gogh
"Irises" (1889)
oil on canvas | 74.3 x 94.3 cm (29 1/4 x 37 1/8 in)
J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles, California.
#ArtSky #VanGogh
Irises by the Dutch artist Vincent van Gogh. Van Gogh painted Irises in 1889 while he was a patient at the Saint-Paul-de-Mausole asylum in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, France. He started the painting within his first week there, inspired by the asylum's garden, using painting as a way to prevent himself from going insane. The composition features vivid colors and a closely cropped view of monumental irises that appear to overflow the canvas borders. The painting is currently housed at the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles, California.

Nova Scotians struggle with high energy bills. Instead of blaming past governments, Premier Houston must act now.

The Home Energy Affordability Program offers income-based bills, debt relief, crisis support & efficiency upgrades.

Real relief is possible.

Text reads, “The Problem: Nearly half of Nova Scotian households struggle to afford energy bills - one of the highest rates in Canada. This affects housing, health and food security. 43% of households spend more than 6% of their income on energy - the standard definition of energy poverty. Almost 1 in 5 households spend over 10%, and nearly 1 in 10 spend more than 15%. Energy poverty isn’t just a “low-income” issue - it reaches across communities.” Bottom right has a yellow arrow pointing right.

Salvador Dalí
"The Angel of Portlligat" (1952)
oil on canvas | 59.8 x 78 cm (22 3/4 x 30 1/2 in)
Salvador Dalí Museum, St. Petersburg, Florida.
#ArtSky #Dalí
The Angel of Port Lligat by the Spanish surrealist artist Salvador Dalí. Dalí painted two versions of this work, the first in 1950 and the second, shown here, in 1952. The painting depicts a boat from Dalí's home in Port Lligat, with a figure of an angel appearing to support the boat's stern. The artwork is an example of the artist's post-war style, which synthesized mysticism and Christian motifs with surrealist elements. The painting is currently housed at the Salvador Dalí Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida.
