They are calling for a frost tonight & it seems likely that this time the city will be hit. So so I harvested the last of the veg & brought in what was drying.

I have a flock of hermit thrushes in my back yard, hopping around the raspberry cane, and eating wild grapes growing on my house. Here are 2 of the many. They have a much prettier colour than I could capture thru the door.

View thru a glass door of a small round bird sitting on the edge of a pot on the stairs. Behind it, anothers perches on the edge of a pot on the ground.

The German company that makes the mechanical ladder used in the Louvre heist has used the image to advertise, with the text 'When you need to move fast'

10/10 response, no notes

Image of the mechanical ladder outside the Louvre

Text below says WENN'S MAL WIEDER SCHNELL GEHEN MUSS (When you need to move fast)

Underneath is more German text which translates as "The Böcker Agilo transports your treasures weighing up to 400kg at 42m/min - quiet as a whisper."

🧠The Amygdala in the brain makes and regulates Emotions.

👃People with post-COVID smell loss show microstructural changes in their Amygdala and have higher depression and anxiety scores.

SARS-CoV-2 can affect smell & also emotions long term. buff.ly/904lVX4

The Ford government already eliminated rent control for buildings built after 2018. They are now taking steps to eliminate rent control in Ontario altogether. This is shameful and disgusting given the affordability crisis that so many people are facing.

A great many of the (wonderful) stories about Ireland's (wonderful) UBI plan for artists tend to bury if not duck completely the hard cold fact that it was funded largely by Google's billion-euro settlement of tax-evasion charges.

The AI boom is boosting electricity demand and power resources as tech giants pour billions into what many believe is the biggest computing shift in decades.

NEW! Episode 284 - The wind of Long Mynd (32mins)

A stunning location on a beautiful day.

In August we got the train to Church Stretton in #Shropshire. The path led us up the steep valley, slowly rising to the summit. Near the top we found a single tree, the only one on the path.

A single old hawthorn tree, cut by the wind. Near the top of a long path up Long Mynd in Shropshire. Bracken and heather on the steep sides of the hill.

Three photos of Toronto Blue Jay George Springer celebrating his three-run homer in the seventh inning of game 7 have been framed to make it look like they’re hanging in a museum.

But that is one of the departments that has lost much of its staff, isn’t it? And I also assumed this was one of the Rump accounts that we are all blocking.

But look at who is saying what he is reacting to! The "US Product Safety...." - One of the many gutted by the Rump administration, is it not?
