“The idea that a civilization might destroy itself is both ludicrous and likely.
💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔
We are pathetically inadequate at long-term planning, idiotically primitive in our destructive urges and pathologically incapable of simply getting along."

A still from a video of a tiny white horse the size of a large dog. Its forelock is braided. It's wearing a little blue vest/cape. It has tiny black booties on it's itty bitty hooves.
I just want to make sure everyone knows Mayo Clinic has a therapy miniature horse named Blue Sky

Also, Dutch totally not beating the allegations of being a fake language.
Thor's Helmet, taken from my balcony
Thor’s Helmet (NGC 2359) is an emission nebula in the Canis Major region, visible only for a short period during the winter season. It also remains quite low on the horizon, right in the middle of the light-pollution belt. These are nearly 21 hours of integrated exposure. 🔭

A squirrel in a tree, resting its head on its arm. There is a small clothesline to the left, where a towel and mittens hang from the branches. It is also snowing.

This is how you write a goddamn headline.
7 Spot native Ladybird, black and white head, red wing covers with black spots. The left wing cover is dark and dented, looks injured.
A huddle of 7 Spots on Holly in my garden. Top right there are the beginnings of a bud so hopefully the Holly will flower, Mrs Holly Blue will visit and honour me by leaving eggs. Again, hopefully, if she does, the larvae will not fall victim to parasites as has happened before.
As well as large numbers of 7 Spots, today I saw 6 small black Ladybirds with curved red marks on the wing covers. Not sure if they are Kidney or Pine.
2 7 Spots with a Shieldbug, not sure which, but it looks brown, maybe its winter coat. It appears to be sitting on a Ladybird. I think Shieldbugs are largely vegetarian so hopefully the Ladybirds are safe.

On this day in 1922, German director #FWMurnau released the iconic expressionist silent movie #Nosferatu – Eine Symphonie des Grauens (A Symphony of Horror).
