Earlier this summer, I got to spend sometime with a Northern Gannet breeding colony or several thousand #seabirds #BirdoftheDay #birdphotography #birds #bird #nikon #birdlovers #birdlife #photography #art #animal #🪶 #ukbirding #ECK #noplanetbphotography #Scotland www.noplanetbphotography.art

Large seabird of the Atlantic with long, pointed bill, wings, and tail. Adults bright white with cream-colored head and black wingtips. Takes several years to reach adult plumage; juveniles are all sooty-brown and slowly acquire more white as they mature. Nests in enormous colonies on cliffs in the North Atlantic. Spends most of its life at sea, although often fairly close to land, so they are often visible from shore or on whale watching boats. Dives torpedolike into the ocean for fish. Gathers in large feeding flocks, but sometimes solitary.

This went very well. One comet could not be measured due to being too close to bright ✨.

<Darkest Dungeon narrator's voice> And now, the true test: Eight comets, moon up all night, temperature predicted to go down to 4° C. Remember, overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer. ☄️🔭

S50 is on the roof. Seven comets are being targeted tonight for photometry. Also four small Kreutz sungrazer visible towards the west. 🤡 🔭☄️

John Cage, Lecture on nothing, 1959

LECTURE ON NOTHING
I am here
and there is nothing to say
If among you are
those who wish to get somewhere
let them leave at
any moment
What we re-quire
is ; : ;
silence
but what silence requires
is
that I go on talking
Give any one thought
a push
it falls down easily
but the pusher
and the pushed
pro-duce
that enter-
tainment
called
a dis-cussion
Shall we have one later?
TIP
we could simply de-cide
not to have a dis-
What ever you like.
But
there are silences
and the
Or cussion now words silences
make
help make
the
I have nothing to say
and that is
poetry
and I am saying it
as I need it
is organized
This space of time
We need not fear these
silences,

I resigned from ExxonMobil today. I spent the last three years doing fossil fuel extraction research at both BP and ExxonMobil. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing to maximize extraction while the window to act closes, and gambling with our lives. More below.

The demographic which voted the least for the AfD was socialized entirely in the GDR, the highest share at 53% (35-44) were children or infants when the wall came down and 42% of those born in the 21st century voted for them.

Saw this sticker (I think on Etsy if you want one) This is kinda how I feel some days. It especially kills me to watch maga interviews 🤦🏻‍♀️ These minds (or lack there of) will be studied forever. Best of luck to the future scientists and medical experts. Happy Sunday friends. #SheShed

International friends, think about your German friends today, especially those living in Sachsen-Anhalt. It will likely be a grim evening of election results. Check in on them, talk to each other. Fascists want us to feel alone, isolated and overwhelmed. Community counters that.

Good morning! All six observations succeeded. The S50 is soaked in dew but the lens is dry. Now I'm downloading the data and will process them with Tycho Tracker for ☄️ photometry. 🔭

Fascism thrives on the flaws of capitalism and the lack of education. Blaming the voters alone is a sign of ignorance.

CHARLES RAFFERTY
The Problem with Early Warnings

People don't like to leave a party unless the house is actually on fire. Even then, if the flames are far enough away to be pretty, they'll finish their drink, take one more pass at the hors d'oeuvres.
How things happen has always been
unclear. Hurricanes begin
in a place where no one lives.
Agents of the government start
to wear masks. Fascism is
a word my neighbors won't use
yet. They are following
the law, they say, and the sirens
are coming for someone else.

A historian asked three chatbots about a WWII diary that exists only in a private family printing. Two invented it. In the voice of US military history, put in a Japanese girl’s mouth. His point isn’t hallucination, it’s flattening. hnn.us/article/ai-is-an-anti-primary-source-machine

Real voices from the past are threatened by chatbots designed to amplify — and ultimately become — the loudest voices in the room.

As it has been raining quite a lot recently I went into the woods early today to see whether the 🍄 situation has improved. Yes, there are signs of improvement but still more rain is needed to make foraging worthwhile. #fungifriends
