Oh, the Mexican drug cartels are involved in trying to "dox" ICE agents? The same thing you're claiming the protesters are trying to do? How convenient!

I don't think I've seen a network TV news report more transparently full of shit since maybe 2003, right before we invaded Iraq

very low importance but… the new spotify feature “messages” is verrrry surveillance-esque & feels creepy plus was pushed in an app update you may not have noticed. if you still use spotify, you can turn it off. here.

What? I’m busy. I’m box sitting. I can’t come sit with you right now

Top down view of Gus in a box in the sunroom. There is brown crinkly paper in the box with him.

And the winner of this year’s ✨Young Wildlife Photographer of the Year✨ goes to Andrea Dominizi!

Awarded for their poignant picture of a longhorn beetle seemingly watching the destruction of its own forest. Or maybe the beetle is a symbol of resilience, surviving against all the odds 📸🧪🪲

A longhorn beetle stands on a log in focus at the bottom left corner of the frame, as a logging machinery is pictured blurred in the background.

🎉AND HERE IT IS!🎉

This year's ✨Wildlife Photographer of the Year✨ is won by Wim van den Heever's rather haunting image of a brown hyena emerging from the darkness in the abandoned mining town of Kolmanskop, Namibia! Just in time for spooky season 📸🧪🐕

A brown hyena with stripes on its legs stands at the bottom right corner of the picture, as an abandoned house towers in the background during the night.

Looking for books that look at a brief crucial period in an artist's life--like @elijahwald.bsky.social 's Dylan Goes Electric or @peteramescarlin.bsky.social 's latest on Springsteen + Born To Run (or @warrenzanes.bsky.social on the Boss/Nebraska). Would love suggestions esp on nonmusic subjects

That's the same registration number as the plane featured in this piece, so I think we have Dimitri Neonakis to thank for this. skiesmag.com/news/halifax...

Halifax pilot earns unique reputation for flight path ‘sky art’ with Cirrus SR22 - Skies Mag

Pilot Dimitri Neonakis has been recognized for designing and orchestrating as many as 20 flight path tributes, also known as sky art, in just under two years.
