I stand by all my earlier statements that privatization of Medicare is a bad thing. Millions of folks on Medicare Advantage "will pay higher prices for prescriptions and medical care," in 2027; experts say "more older Americans will face greater financial hardship." www.nytimes.com/2026/10/09/b...

Private Medicare Plans Are Raising Costs And Forcing Millions To Find New Insurance (Gift Article)

As enrollment for Medicare Advantage begins this month, older Americans are confronting fewer options because insurers are discontinuing coverage in many areas.

Did you know that the bees that need saving are NOT honeybees? Honeybees are the dairy cows of bees. People brought them over from Europe to make us honey. The problem with honeybees, esp in resource-limited ecosystems (like hey! cities!) is that they compete with our native bees for food.

Painted lady feeding on Schott's pygmy cedar. I was wondering if the plant was an actual cedar because its needle-shaped leaves smell like pine, but it's a member of the aster family that grows on rock walls in the desert.

I've seen remarkable things in my years of chasing, but this scene from my first year remains a favorite. Here, the flanking line of a supercell is painted by the setting Sun, while the very clouds you're looking at cast shadows for miles (seen as anticrepuscular rays near the horizon). #photography

A line of clouds stretches across the frame from center left to center right above a green field. The clouds have a relatively flat base, with the bottom third of them painted a deeply saturated pinkish-orange by the setting Sun (which is out of frame directly behind me). The rest of the clouds are mostly whitish-gray. Between the base of the clouds and the horizon, shadows cast by the clouds extend for miles into the distance, appearing as dark streaks that converge at a point on the horizon.

Happy Saturday. Pretty miserable as of late. And ill have to shovel again tomorrow before it turns to slush- close to a foot by AM. And more next week. Here’s some cats to brighten your day. They’re growing fast. Phil is a moose! #caturday #cats

Phil- black and white tux cat. He’s 5 months old now. He’s laying on a hammock cat tree- that’s grey and fluffy. - a ball hangs by some twine.

Same cat tree. but Phil is sprawled on the top- ( tux cat) his sister Calliope is curled into the hammock. She is grey and white.

Stewart- the black cat. He’s mad. No room in cat tree. ( its ok- there is another one) He has a little white patch under his chin.

There are many anti-predatory adaptations that help insects stay safe in the wild. These include jaws, spikes, and false eyes, which can be used to bite, inject venom, or deter potential predators. I love insects and their fascinating defense mechanisms! #naturalhistory #evolution #insects

Fuzzy grey cat tree - multiple levels for play and scratching. Its close to 8 feet tall w all pieces. Oops. Black cat sitting at bottom - blur to the right is grey and white cat
