It's only taken 35 years of visiting the French Alps and Pyrenees to finally get settled views of a Peak White. A late highlight yesterday afternoon here in the Alps, all my previous sightings of this (in)famously mobile species have been butterflies zipping past at great speed.

I don't want a "Smart Fridge" that orders milk for me. I want a fridge that lasts 25 years and doesn't have a privacy policy that allows it to share my late-night snacking habits with my health insurance provider.

Two worlds divided, New York, USA - no photoshop #photography The photograph shows the stark contrast between Manhattan's dense skyline & the lush greenery of Central Park, captured perfectly along Central Park West. The image was taken from a doorless helicopter by photographer Kathleen Dolmatch.

I had replied to the below: Paper maps are great. Never run out of juice, let you see the close-up detail and the big picture at the same time (because they're three feet wide, unlike your phone), and the more you use them the more you learn your way around without them, unlike obeying a machine.

Can’t lie, the fact that y’all were driving with PAPER maps is insane. Even worse, you had to ask random strangers for directions??

Bethan's Rock is a small grey stone on display at Poole Museum in Poole, England. It was donated to the museum in 2019 by a five-year-old girl named Bethan, and it has since attracted significant attention on social media and become the museum's most famous object. - Wikipedia
