The result is an irreverent, hilarious, and wildly entertaining road-trip adventure. The film manages to simultaneously lampoon “listers” who seem more focused on birding as a competition than on the birds themselves, and celebrate the beauty of birds and the excitement of spotting them in the wild

Free movie: A doc made by two hilarious young Midwestern brothers has become the most talked-about birding movie in ages, and is putting a whole new side of the hobby on screen. Even better, it’s finding fans even among non-birders

Vija Celmins talked about Japanese Book (2007-10) as having a closer relationship of painting and object, but it's also v clearly a painting OF an object. (Unlike her paintings of starry skies or waves, etc., which are paintings of photographs) greg.org/archive/2025...

My Church and my Country could use a little mercy now
As they sink into a poisoned pit
That’s going to take forever to climb out
They carry the weight of the faithful
Who follow ‘em down
I love my Church and Country and they could use some mercy now

Breaking: Seeing countless unknown people's names and places does not mean you are disconnected from reality. You just might be watching the swirling soup of humanity from afar. Fear not, it's not wrong or bad.

Thank you for speaking truth to power, Natasha. 🙏

A long time ago artist Ron Cooper started driving up jugs of mezcal from Oaxaca and sharing it with his friends. It turned into a journey into the mountains, discovering the stills of the growers and eventually, creating access to these farmers and helping them participate in the US market.

Don't look up: Astrophysicists say a growing number of Starlink satellites are falling back to Earth because of what they describe as a fundamental "design flaw." Researchers warn that failures will multiply as SpaceX expands its network toward a planned 42,000 satellites

Starlink satellites are already falling, and it will only get worse

Elon Musk’s satellite network is expected to balloon in size over the next decade. Should we be concerned? (Hint: Many experts already are.)

ICYMI: One aspect of Marc Maron's legacy is his ability to listen. He rarely let his voice overwhelm the conversation and was brilliant at steering it back on track when it tended to wander. His show had such a variety of personalities due to his empathetic interest in what he was hearing #WTF
