A Song Thrush perched on a thin garden branch, its creamy chest marked with bold dark arrow-shaped spots. The bird looks alert, head tilted slightly upward, showing a slender yellow-based bill and a large glossy eye catching the light. Warm brown feathers cover its back and wings, while small red berry stems and green leaves frame the scene. The background is softly blurred green foliage, making the thrush stand out sharply in the sunlight. 🌿🐦
Good morning, today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #SongBirds any songbird and the alternative is #PerfectlyPerched any bird perched. I’ve went with a Song Thrush. Wishing you all good luck and a great day ahead. #birds #photography #ECK

It remains damning that "from the river to the sea" is criminalized to the point that thought police has evaporated a great rally cry for freedom from common use, but genocide and international law breaches and group rape of hostages with knives are in the "it's not the time to lecture" bucket.

Mar Espinar criticized Isabel Diaz Ayuso for her alignment with Trump during a government hearing: (English translation in the post) “Cójase al mafioso de su jefe de Gabinete, tire para Mar-a-Lago y déjenos aquí — que somos más de los valientes de Minnesota”
Mar Espinar, Spain’s PSOE deputy, on Isabel Díaz Ayuso’s support for Trump:
“Take your mafioso chief of staff, go to Mar-a-Lago, and leave us here — because we are more like the brave ones from Minnesota”
A bird with a spiky, golden crest, blue facial skin, a red eye, gray beak, tan throat, and brown striped with tan on the back of the neck and shoulders. It is perched in a tree among dense vegetation.

If a fetish is just what makes a person experience arousal/attraction, then practically everything you've ever read or watched involved the creator's "fetish". Fetishistic attraction is not automatically morally different from normative modes of attraction.

Streaking through the sky like a bell-bottomed black-suited disco-ninja, the "four-winged" dinosaur Microraptor attempts to grab an early bird, the pintailed Yuanchuavis, from the Cretaceous sky with taloned feet. Fossils show that Microraptor had a diverse diet that included birds, alongside lizards and fish.
My social media silence is not because I'm dead, kidnapped, or abducted by aliens; I'm working around the clock to make Book 7 all that it can be before submission later this month. Here's a new #paleoart take on Microraptor and Yuanchuavis to show what I'm up to.
OK, break over: back to work...

Underrated example of convergent evolution I feel. The hummingbird hawk-moth can feed on nectar using its proboscis while hovering in the air, just like a hummingbird.
Elad Simchayoff on twitter: I interviewed two Israeli Air Force pilots who are part of the operation in Iran. When I asked what it felt like to enter Iranian airspace for the first time, one of them said: “You find yourself thinking, what do these people, so far away from us, actually want from us? They have a huge and beautiful country. Right now full of snow and lakes. Truly a very, very beautiful place. What do they want from us, this small piece of land? It’s such a strange feeling.”
A surprising number of Israelis seem to have already forgotten that they're the ones who started the war.
Photo shows young white woman in a white tan top with from the river to the sea in black all caps text. She’s flanked by security or police Text of X screenshot: An 18-year-old woman in Queensland faces two years in jail for wearing a shirt that says "from the river to the sea." In Australia, you can bankroll mass murder and sleep fine. But wear a shirt that says "from the river to the sea"?Two years in prison.
I was told that a bombing campaign is needed to free her from a fascist government that controls what women can wear.
Aus der Frankfurter Rundschau: „Schmutzkampagne“? Grünen-Politikerin Zoe Mayer bekommt Flut an Hassnachrichten Die Grünen-Abgeordnete Zoe Mayer hingegen weist Mitschuld an der CDU-Niederlage in Baden-Württemberg zurück. Wenn sie sich dem Vorwurf der „Schmutzkampagne“ konfrontiert sehe, müsse sie sich „schon sehr zusammenreißen“, sagte sie zu den Badischen Neuesten Nachrichten. Ihr Anliegen sei es nicht gewesen, Özdemir den Wahlsieg zu verschaffen, sondern eine Debatte anzustoßen. Den Zeitpunkt kurz vor der Landtagswahl habe sie gewählt, „weil genau dann politische Relevanz da ist“. Dem Spiegel berichtete die 30-Jährige von einer Flut von Hassnachrichten und beleidigenden Anrufen. „Ich finde es erschreckend, dass diese Dynamik entsteht, und mir fehlen dafür noch etwas die Worte“, wird sie zitiert. „Ich sollte mich schämen, man solle meinen Lebenslauf durchleuchten, ich solle mein Mandat zurückgeben, heißt es.“
Irgendwas irgendwas, Zitat Gisèle Pelicot: "Die Scham muss die Seite wechseln"

My photo shows a small clay aryballos (oil flask) in the form of a hedgehog. It has a rounded, squat body with a long pointed snout. At the top of the body is a small spout for filling with oil. Sculpted details include eyes and ears ears. The light tan surface is painted with dark spots representing the hedgehog’s spines. It measures 4.8 cm in length and 3 cm in height. Dated circa 550 BC.
