Maybe I can plan it out for 2027. For now, I'm focusing on Mt St Helens for next year.

Ending up needing to cancel my Dolly Sods/Ohiopyle trip last moment. It's necessary due to events, but I'm still disappointed. I'll have to carve out some time this week for some extra local hiking.

Aftonbladet's interview with Greta Thunberg is now available in English - it raises many serious questions, not least about the Swedish govt. effectively abandoning its citizens to torture because it doesn't agree with their politics. A thundering disgrace.

This fall I have enjoyed many golden moments with northern wildlife. #birds #mammals
Yellow-rumped Warbler, Northern FLicker, Red Fox, Ring-necked Ducks

A yellow-rumped warbler perches on a wild rose plant with a golden backdrop of fall colours.

A northern flicker perches on a wolf willow plant with a golden backdrop of fall colours.

Fall [part 1/3]

A cartoon crow is looking up as orange, red and yellow fall leaves dance in tje wind around him.

The crow is walking on the crunchy leaves, saying "what a perfect day!"

The crow is marveling at how lovely all the leaves are, new seeing a stone in his path.

The crow trips on the stone right on his face.

I agree that there’s some real horrific irony in AI conglomerates being permitted to launch the Madness Inducing Porn Spigot while actual, human porn producers are getting harassed off the internet.

It feels like such a slap in the face to sex workers and nsfw artists who are actively being censored by payment processors atm. Of course visa/mc are ok with this because its a rich white guy doing it AND they get access to all that VERY PROFITABLE PII. Disgusting.

a key thing about vought — and all of these guys — is that they have a totally top down and hierarchical vision of the world. they believe that the cultural changes they hate can be turned off by destroying the federal government because they can’t imagine that they emerged bottom-up in society

Thomas Zimmer @thomaszimmer.bsky.social · 3d

What he’s railing against is a profound shift in culture, status… He’s obsessed with the idea that America is controlled by a leftist “ruling elite” - but “elite” isn’t defined socio-economically or by political power, it means something like: Getting to define “real America” and who gets to belong.

Here are some nice mushrooms

A raspberry red coral mushrooms grow grows from the rain soak moss of the forest floor. It’s so young and bright it looks like a red rubber kooshball that’s been dropped. All photos by me

Most of you that have been following my work for a while know that I’m a sucker for new owls.

A couple nights ago, I finally scored a photo op with the Brown Wood Owl, which teased me two years ago during my last Borneo visit. It’s much prettier up close than I imagined!
