For the record: The Washington Post is run by partisan hacks who think we won't remember that they took the *exact* opposite stance when it was Republicans pushing their own gerrymandering grab in Texas last year -- *without* putting it up for a vote.

I came across a family of great horned owls in Chicago (at an undisclosed location). They were being harrassed by crows and a Cooper's hawk. I sure hope they don't eat any poisoned rats!
News alerts four minutes apart. One says the Strait of Hormuz is open, the next one says it’s closed.

Finches feed too many seeds to their babies, the cowbirds need more protein and water from insects so they typically die. Not all the time, but I've never seen a cowbird nestling survive in all the HOFI nests I've monitored!

There’s an elk going one way, and an elk going the other way, joined in the middle. An impossible 2-way elk. The only on the left is colored in warm orange tones, with cooler colors on his neck fur and antlers, and the one on the right is mainly cool bluish with similarly contrasting parts. There’s abstract colors in the background suggestions of a sunrise. Around the middle of the 2-way elk is wrapped a light colored banner going around three times, just slightly tilted to the right off of vertical. Written on the banner are the words ‘Maybe it will happen today’.

Love seeing conservatives argue for separation between church and state but only when religious doctrine conflicts with blowing people up
In general I'm feeling allergic in this moment to experiencing politics as entertainment, but JD Vance's "feud" with the Pope (actually just JDV trying to start beef while the Holy Father goes about his day) is legit funny.
I love this song and would also like to hear a cover by a like 2004 Pentecostal-Strokes-era Kings of Leon youtu.be/f-98G3Hon0s?...
I can’t believe I’m writing this, but today is one of the greatest moments in baseball history history. It’s the 19th anniversary of the Fenway Pizza Throw featuring Don Orsillo and the late Jerry Remy with a guy who wasted a piece of cheese pizza.
