After years of frustration in his quest it would seem that one of the Empire's deadliest bounty hunters has finally tracked me down. tomcox.substack.com/p/some-notes...
What I at first thought of as a long-horned sheep, staring at me from an adjacent field on Dartmoor, but is actually a deadly bounty hunter from outer space who has been trying to track me down for many years, across several galaxies, and is feeling smug that he is finally going to receive the considerable fee, plus travel expenses, that he has been promised for his troubles.

Halloween costumes for birders. This is from last year and someone actually did the sexy owl pellet one.
A comic called halloween costume ideas for birders. In panel 1, labeled easy, there's a person labeled northern cardinal wearing a party hat, a beak, and red clothes, and a person labeled roseate spoonbill wearing pink clothes and a wooden spoon on their nose. In panel 2, labeled harder, there's a person labeled merlin sound ID wearing a big green circle with a microphone modeled after the button on the merlin sound ID app, and a person labeled hybrid green x blue jay wearing a complex costume with a mask and robe and hat modeled after a recently discovered hybrid bird. In panel 3, labeled challenging, there's a person labeled baltimore oriole nest wearing an enormous accurate woven oriole nest suspended from their arms and shoulders, and a person labeled african jacana carrying chicks with a hideous costume of long-toed bird feet hanging from their armpits. In panel 4, labeled hot, there's a person labeled high quality spotting scope who is shirtless and is wearing a spotting scope mask on their head, and a person labeled sexy owl pellet wearing an owl pellet top and bottom with a mouse skull on their head.

Born on this day: Matt Damon is an Academy Award-winning actor and screenwriter. From his breakout success in Good Will Hunting to leading blockbusters like the Bourne franchise and The Martian, he remains one of Hollywood's most versatile stars.
Actor Matt Dillon poses for a headshot portrait. He has short, styled dark wavy hair, brown eyes, and light stubble. He wears a black shirt under a dark, textured jacket and looks off-camera with a slight smile. Don’t be mad that I used him for this, I haven’t seen this guy in ages.

Socialism is when you step on a Lego with bare feet. It's being stuck in a huge traffic jam when you're already late. Socialism is the restaurant having Pepsi but not Coke. It's that annoying tickle in your nose but you can't sneeze. It's your childhood pet dying. It's a terrible sunburn that hurts.
