Getting back on the #TenMinuteMerlin train
A few years ago I started replacing every "we should" with "I should" and this really helps me to stay grounded.
β.. Here's a fun fact: The United States now has fewer manufacturing jobs today (12.573M) than it did in March 2018 (12.576M) when Trump first started his tariff wars:β

Looks almost like needle ice
We need to make a car that reaches 1776mph and then let Trump drive it
Continued hollowing out of what truly makes America strong.
Robin like "it's baby makin' time"
Saturday, Feb. 28, at 10:41 a.m. There was a report of suspicious activity near Wenham Lake, where a vehicle was parked on Cedar Street. The driver, as it turned out, was just enjoying views of the lake.
Small-town police logs are a great reminder that we could probably significantly cut the budgets of many departments. And also that people need to mind their own damn business.
holy shit
Did I slip in lessons about keeping cats indoors and bird safe glass? You would be a fool to think that I didnβt.
Highlight for me was a Downy Woodpecker sitting on my hand for about a minute just going hog wild on sunflower chips.
Spent the morning taking a few non-birders on a trip to Kensington Metropark. I think a great way to get people into birds (even in a minimal way) is to have that superrrrrr close (sitting on your hand) experience.
I did the arbol/ancho you described, very faithful to your recipe. I may try guajillo or even mulato for a bit of sweetness next time! I can tell itβs a fun sauce that allows you to really get your own version.
If you can't even manage to wipe the stupid smirk off your face while writing about a war that started with 160 children being bombed in a school, it's time to start thinking about the decisions that led you here.
A glass mason jar filled with a deep brown/red oil with sesame seeds and other assorted peppers and nuts in it.
Inspired by @picapocokitchen.bsky.social I tried my hand at salsa macha. I would probably use more peppers/less oil next time but it tastes pretty good! I also need to get an infrared thermometer.
Yes we can avoid further dangerous climate change, we can stop the destruction of nature, we can begin the transformation of our societies so that they live in balance with the Earth system. But no we didnβt act on the science when we should have 10/11
Having some of the most thoroughly redacted thoughts of my life.
A picture from the Audubon Migration Explorer. It is a map of the US, with various locations across the map broken out into hexagons. The listing is for the American Robin, with a drawing of the bird on the top left. The hexagon shows migration for birds from a spot in Michigan, with purple squares indicating where birds from one region have been tracked. The majority of the ones from Michigan have gone to the southern US, but there is one record on the West Coast.
I haven't stopped thinking about the AMRO that was tracked from Michigan to LA.
The time of the juncos is over. The age of robin freakouts has begun.
I was looking at the BIPOC and LGBTQ walks (attending as an ally). Iβll be volunteering a few shifts at the registration table and as a room monitor.
how to get out of the mirror universe
They've now killed four people -- three U.S. citizens and a Mexican national. They've shot several more.
They've lied about all of them. They haven't shaded the truth. They haven't "misled" us. They've brazenly, knowingly lied while in possession of the evidence disproving their lies.
A 1944 map by geologist Harold Fisk charts a 40-mile stretch of the Mississippi River from Friars Point to Gunnison, Mississippi. Fisk used aerial photos and maps to estimate the past and then-present channels.

Birds disappearing as Trump approves new pesticide tsunami
Billions fewer birds flying through North American skies than decades ago and their population is shrinking ever faster, mostly due to intensive agriculture and warming temperatures, a new study found

Screenshot of a tweet from Jonathan Edward Durham (@thisone0verhere) that reads: 'An underrated aspect of public libraries is that they're one of the last true no-pressure zones. Want to buckle down and do work? Great. Want to go sit by yourself and read? Also great! Need a book? Here, take it! A computer? You don't even have to ask! Can only stay for a little bit? Awesome. Want to hang around for 8 hours? They literally love that for you! You can feel it the moment you walk in and it's so so necessary.' The tweet is overlaid on a photo of the Ypsilanti District Library stacks.
Come as you are. Stay as long as you need.
