Love being on Earth. Also: walking, math, music. And pure functional languages like Elm.

I saw this bird in my garden two days ago. Possibly a goshawk. Merlin gave this and three other hawks as possibilities. But the others all have some reddish color. This bird has none. Merlin also says that this bird is scarce where I live (Harlem, New York City). What do you think? #birds

But when Dr. Andrew Ryan Davis, the obstetrician on duty, finally arrived, he said it was the hospital’s “routine” to give a drug called misoprostol to help the body pass the tissue, Hope recalled. Hope trusted the doctor. Porsha took the pills, according to records, and the bleeding continued.

another woman is dead because doctors refused to give her standard medical care AFTER SHE ALREADY MISCARRIED. abortion bans are killing women even if they don’t need one. porsha ngumezi should be alive.

Resurrecting an invented word I used often 2017-2020 to describe MAGA reaction to dissenting views: thugocracy. Governing by threat and elevating specialists in threat and corruption to positions of authority.

The New Republic@newrepublic.com · 2y ago

In recent days, Republican politicians have taken to the airwaves, threatening blue states that fail to comply with the Trump administration’s draconian immigration policies with the withdrawal of federal funding. newrepublic.com/post/188792/...

Jack Smith will now write a report on Jan 6 investigation. He must include declinations to prosecute. It will be interesting to see if he and his team found evidence of crimes by members of Congress – who have seemingly gotten off scot-free – but declined to bring charges for constitutional reasons

For those astronerds that may be interested, these were shot using a Celestron 9.25 EdgeHD w/ Hyperstar on a Celestron CGX mount and ZWO ASI071mc pro cooled camera. Bortle 6 light pollution so used dual narrow band filter. Here is another... the Pelican Nebula (should be Tetradactyl in my opinion)

Get To Know Nature@gettoknownature.bsky.social · 2y ago

I'm also going to keep posting nature stuff. We need the beauty and hope to keep ourselves going and nature will need us to look out for it. Community is super important and I am very happy to have all of you here, old friends and new. #birds 🌿

I am going to continue to post nature stuff, because it helps me, because I hope it is a respite for others, and because, for me, nature is a constant reminder that life is diverse, beautiful, and resilient.
