A figure depicting the relative abundance of different prey items among two species of felid (e.g., monkey, small bird, agouti), derived from scat. The x axis is labeled "PoO (%)."
I would like to interrupt your doomscrolling for an important announcement: This figure from Ellen Dymit et al., 2025, depicts the proportion of vertebrate prey in felid scat, recorded as a Proportion of Occurrence (PoO). 💩
Thank you! I needed this.
Crude oil prices, showing a very sharp increase in the last day, from around 65 to 101 dollars per barrel..
Oil prices wouldn't be all over the news today if more of our economy was powered by local, secure renewable energy.
This isn't an "energy crisis". It's a fossil fuel crisis.
44% of UK electricity came from renewables in 2025. More of that plus an electrified economy => no more oil shocks.

You got it backwards - the preferred scent is olives in tuna oil.
Has anyone run this through AI detection? These guys think they’re in a movie from the 80s/90s.

(I should note that we then witnessed an epic performance by Rana that night)
Reminds me of 2003... I seem to recall marching to the UN in NYC around this time of year then, asking the same questions. Look how that turned out.
It’s inspiration for a tour! This needs to be a road show.
Holy shit.
This this this! Though I'd argue the Maduro regime is still the Maduro regime, too.
No. I was a bit naïve, thinking her experience would be like mine. But the Mandalorian, especially with Grogu, could be a good bridge…
Well, I tried to introduce my 7-yr old to Star Wars (A New Hope) this evening. I was worried she would be startled by the violence, but thought she would be enthralled like I was as a kid.
Nope - just bored. 😔 She liked Chewbacca, but that’s about it. Will try again in a few years.
1/9. In 2020 Iran did try to interfere with the presidential election.
“Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends.” - Gandalf’s advice to Frodo.

I’m so sorry. That is hard. Fuck cancer indeed.

FFS.
Stockdale - a Navy A-4 pilot - studied the Stoics at Stanford. He was later shot down and held for 7 years in North Vietnam. He credited his studies with helping him survive.
He received the Medal of Honor in 1976.
If all you know of him is from later life, look again
