From time to time we get polls on age. Often they are a bit lopsided.

So here is a more egalitarian version for you
How old are you?

Civ medevac plane in the US being murdered by the military not even making headlines because of how much fucked up shit is constantly happening is beyond infuriating.

Small update. The race track did a "pit party" where kids could come through, see the cars, etc. Andrea got book stickers made so all the kids could sign her car. Truly some of my best library outreach work (and thanks to anyone who contributed)

Today is Venn Day, in celebration of the mathematician John Venn, born on this day in 1834. To commemorate the occasion, here’s a poem in the form of a Venn Diagram.

I hope people understand that there are, right now, in the United States, concentration camps where people the U.S. government doesn't like or finds convenient to scapegoat are being sent to die.
Because maybe if people understand that, then they will also understand that our last chance to put the brakes on this without at best a hot civil war, and at worst a world war, is FOR EVERY VOTER IN EVERY STATE TO SHOW UP IN NOVEMBER AND VOTE AGAINST THE FASCISTS.

I also saw a northern leopard frog but didn't get a good photo. And just lovely scenery overall in between rainfalls.

Summer bouquet I got from the farm yesterday.

Beavers tackling Europe’s raging wildfires & helping burnt landscapes recover

#Beavers build dams, dig channels and transform small streams into broad wetland areas. This helps keep plants lush and green, even throughout long periods of drought.

It means when a #wildfire ignites, the green vegetation near the beaver ponds will be much harder to burn compared to dried-out areas.

Experts say that #fires will often take the path of least resistance

I just changed all my internet passwords to Kenny, so they're Kenny logins. I like to live in the danger zone.
