love this account. reposting with alt text.

Trailcam still of a wet bear striding out of a lake with two fish in its mouth. It’s a cloudy day and there’s mountain with some snow in the background. Informational band at the top dates it 2021-07-09 9:34:55pm, 14 deg C.

I was catsitting during the World Cup and this guy, Calyspo, was fascinated:

I do think they missed a crucial detail in the conclusion. Books being digitized doesn’t mean they’re inherently saved forever. Just like the Library of Alexandria we depend on archivists to preserve those, particularly in the face of disasters (and capitalist decay) that impact access to tech.

When the Library of Alexandria disappeared, the knowledge inscribed on its scrolls was lost forever. We can only guess what else Eratosthenes and Euclid might have written. The text turned to dust. That won't happen today; all of the words in the great library could be stored on a single computer chip.
Nowadays, even the most obscure academic monographs are scanned and digitized. Google Books and the Internet Archive represent libraries of unfathomable proportions. We can navigate to them with a few keystrokes, not a perilous journey across the Mediterranean. There's little risk of their texts succumbing to humidity or mice.
But the threat of apathy remains. What we're losing is the ability and inclination to read those texts. An astonishing wealth of information and wisdom has been bequeathed to us.
What well do with this inheritance is up to us.

It looks like @bwaybeatnews.bsky.social isn’t active on bsky right now, so let me share my favorite niche McConnell joke of late, from them on IG:

Broadway Beat instagram post with the headline “Stunt Casting Alert! DEAD OUTLAW to Make Regional Premiere This Summer in Washington, D.C. with an Extra Special Star” followed by a picture of Elmer McCurdy standing in his coffin, only he has Mitch McConnell’s dopey smiling turtle face.

I really enjoy I Love Hue Too when I need low-key puzzle time. You move geometric shapes to make a color gradient. (Two images below are an example of what you start with and what you’re trying to get to.)

A grid of overlapping squares in jumbled colors.

The same grid as last image, but now all the colors are arranged into a rainbow gradient.

Photo of the side of a bus stop that usually has a full-height ad, but instead it’s displaying one of Elon Musk’s emails to Jeffrey Epstein, dated 11/25/2012, in black text on a white background. Text: “What day/night will be the wildest party on your island?”

Excellent trail cam shot, repost with alt text.

Screengrab from a trail cam at night. Close up of two small brown and white mice. The one on the right is looking down at the woodchippy ground, the one on the left has its paws on a strawberry that is nearly its same size.

Amazing. (Repost with alt text.)

The world is really fucked right now, and I deeply value the few hours a day I spend in rehearsal with young people, helping them make art. And this is the vibe I bring to the room bc I take my job of caring for them seriously.

Photo of the front of my black hoodie which says “PROTECT TRANS YOUTH” with white illustrated knives above and below, and other tattoo style sketches around it. I am a white person with shoulder length brown hair, wearing a black mask and leaning my head on my hand. The photo is cropped at the top of the mask.

Tweet from Will Bunch on 8/9/24: The only thing more shocking than the allegation that a US president took a $10 million bribe from a foreign dictator is that said bribee held a TV news conference and not a single journalist asked about it.
