Our weird family Thanksgiving tradition is the Pineapple Turkey
A pineapple on its side with a rough fabric turkey head mounted on the bottom surface of the fruit, making the leaves look a bit like a tail. There are apples in the platter around it.

Random thought:

In worlds where Vampires obey "invitation only" rules, can you invite them in on a room by room basis ie "you can come into the porch"

If so, is thr popularity of open plan living a vampire conspiracy?

i know WHY this is but that just makes it even more of a kick in the pants lmao
screenshot of a tumblr post from user “wildmansters” The thing that really boils my potatoes about Al in general is that I have been a creative professional for over a decade now and the devil has ALWAYS been in the details. Big and small, I've had single-person businesses rip me to shreds over how their colors turned out on newsprint, and have worked with huge companies with THICK brand guidelines with every detail of their brand identity laid out and enforced with an iron fist. But I guess all of that stuff doesn't matter anymore? Who gives a fuck if this Al generated baby has six fingers, that mom-and-pop shop is still going to use it. That rug from Temu says Happy Thanksgivirg? Oh well haha it's just a silly funny thing now (nevermind that you never would have given a B-grade item from a craft show the same consideration). I don't actually care that the Al Coca-cola ad has a truck that changes size every scene, but I can't help but think about how, if it had been some poor underpaid artist, they would have been laughed out of the building. I don't really know how to put it in a succint way but it just feels all the more obvious how much more grace and flexibility has always been possible but never offered.

Did I get stuck by the high tide on a sandbar when I left my family on the holiday to go birding “for a few hours”? Sure

Will it go down as one of the best moments of my life? Also yes

There are thousands of birds here, letting me lay among them. Like, Piping Plovers and Black Skimmers! Phone vid:

The what-are-you-thankful-for dinner conversation when it was the 4yo's turn:

4yo, pouring salt on his turkey meat. "Flowers.... and....... love."

*Awwwww* from all in earshot.

4yo, dreamily sighs. "I love salt."

If one Afghan nationalist shooter means all Afghan nationalists are evil, wait until I tell you about white male shooters.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #HeadShots! Here's one of my favourite head shots of an American Herring Gull who gave me pose after pose as though they were a model.

#birds #nature #wildlife #photography
Close-up image of a white bird's head and neck (herring gull) with yellow eye and yellow bill with red and black markings on it. The gull is facing down and to the right and is looking sullen, like a fashion model might.

A sharp-tailed grouse in #Manitoba, Canada is eager to participate in #BirdOfTheDay's #HeadShots topic. Love these birds, especially around mating time and their awesome mating dances.

Today's close up capture is a male #CommonYellowthroat that was hopping through the brush along a trail in Marshfield, Massachusetts (May 2025) 💛

A cute male Common Yellowthroat with a bright yellow throat and chest, olive-colored back, and a black mask across the eyes with a ring of white feathers. This bird was hopping through the brown brush next to a trail at Daniel Webster W.S. in Marshfield, Massachusetts.

Well Isaac Newton being the *second* result for Newton, after a Crytpo platform, really sums up the decline of human knowledge I think lol
A Google search for "Newton" where the top result is "Newton Crypto" and the second result is the Wikipedia page for Isaac Newton

I'm getting on the statewide rare bird alert for South Carolina with this one, and more importantly it's a lifer for me (a species I've never seen before)-- a Sandwich Tern! They should be farther south by now, but luckily this one is holding on for me :D

#birds
Slender silvery-gray and white tern, a gull-like shorebird. It has a stripe of black behind its eye, and a thin black beak with a little yellow tip. It is flying over water.
