@nytimes.com Could somebody please tell Wyna Liu that it's "free rein," not "free reign," and that the underlying image comes from horseback riding?

oof -- thanks for saving me the time i might have wasted checking this book out. also, how much do you hate it when someone's legitimate arguments in one area are undermined by their complete idiocy in another

Plenty of professional writers self-publish -- the whole concept of a vanity press is passé. But yes, Amazon is to be avoided; there are other platforms

Thank you, & also drat, bc NetGalley is interested in GR/ Amazon reviews & I am a glutton for ARCs, not to mention most of my romance (etc) reading pals are on GR. I bet KJC is avoiding the Amazon/GR ecosystem on principle as well. I'm not buying books on A. anymore, at least.

I love migration season, and I wish it didn't always make me think of habitat loss these days. How many more years of spring warblers & kinglets & gnatcatchers &&& are left to us?

The early #warblers are arriving! This Pine Warbler was singing its fool head off in #Brooklyn, #GreenwoodCemetery, this morning. #migration #Birds #environment #HabitatLoss
Pine warbler perched on a branch. It's sunny, the branch is of a flowering tree, and the water of a decorative pond is visible in the background. Same pine warbler, same tree, but a different branch with more pink-red buds. The warbler is behind a small flowering branch but is mostly visible. Same pine warbler, same branch, but the warbler's beak is open as it sings.Same warbler, same tree, still singing, different branch.

I mean, yes, of course, but you do realize that the mayor can't control either SCOTUS or red-state legislatures? Or even the NYS legislature? Or even the City Council? He has some sway over the latter two and exactly none over the former, most powerful two.

Deep-sea mining halted as global moratorium gains support. International negotiations have again resulted in a no to deep-sea mining, with no code adopted and no projects authorised. It appears humanity is coalescing around the conclusion that this is a bad idea. buff.ly/6dRGO7w #ShareGoodNewsToo

This may change your world. Birds process sound and vision around 10 times more rapidly than humans do. Here, I have a 2.3 second clip of an Eastern Whipbird call, followed by the same clip slowed 10x. Perhaps it's time to recognise that different intelligences are no less relevant than ours. #Birds

Nothing says "Fighting anti-Semitism" like demanding lists of Jews, amirite? #fascism #antisemitism #UniversityOfPennsylvania
New York Times headline about the Trump regime demanding that the University of Pennsylvania supply contact info of Jewish students and staff. The university refused and the regime is suing.
