It’s not just the tech. It’s the culture of a tech that allows for arbitrary personal vendettas as a way of creating a permanent underclass That everyone justifies because “Men should have dominion over women” “Black people commit crimes” Based on data designed to prove that

The little sparrow has a rufous crown, eyestripe, and back, a black and yellow bill, and a soft gray belly with a black central spot.

The CDC wants to redesign its annual health survey. Their proposed changes would make people with intellectual and developmental disabilities "invisible." www.statnews.com/2026/10/01/c...

As CDC redesigns annual health survey, it removes questions about disabilities

Proposed changes to the federal government’s health survey would undercount Americans with disabilities, advocates say.

My new @cidrap.bsky.social piece: One HPV vaccine dose may be enough, but how we get to that answer matters. The evidence for one dose is strong in girls; uncertainties remain, especially in boys. The biggest problem is still the kids who never get a 1st dose. www.cidrap.umn.edu/human-papill...

A very handsome myna bird dines all’aperto (al fresco) and rests on the edge of an abandoned plate. The handsome bird faces the camera, his beak, eye patch, and legs a vibrant yellow against his black head and milk chocolate colored body. His brown eyes hold a study gaze—a warning that he is not quite ready to give up his table.

a black and white scratchboard drawing. Alternative poster for "It's the great pumpkin, Charlie brown"
It depicts a vast pumpkin patch in which Linus is standing holding a sign. He is looking up at the full moon. In front of the full moon we can see Snoopy in his aviator costume on his doghouse.
All the way in the distance, there is a house and we can see three children in halloween costumes coming out the door.

To be fair, I’m not doing so great with men. I told my most recent date that I was working on a novella. “Because you’re Mexican?” he asked. I asked what he meant. “Isn’t a novella a Mexican novel?” Before him was the guy who confessed over drinks that he didn’t “believe in Helen Keller,” because there was “no way she actually flew that plane.” I asked if he meant Amelia Earhart. “Who?” I slept with both of them.

Per @robcrank68.bsky.social #BirdOfTheDay #BestOfTheMonth my best birds of the month (not best photos here) were about the B’s… (more in Alt) Barn owls, Barn Swallows, Bitterns and Buzzards #birds #photography #ECK #ukbirds #wildlife #ukwildlife

I had a great few days in September photographing birds and wildlife in Norfolk especially barn owls. This is a more distant shot of one of the owls in a tree facing an adjacent meadow from where it flew off into the distance but thankfully returned a bit later.

I’ve posted a photo of these young barn swallows perched on a lighting wire previously and have more that I haven’t yet processed. It was a pleasure to spend time with them and watch their busy parents feed them repeatedly.

Over at my local nature reserve I’ve been lucky to observe and photograph some of the bitterns during September and arguably more than ever before. This bittern in flight changed reed beds and gave me a chance to grab some photos as it flew from right to left in front of some trees.

I’ve photographed buzzards in Norfolk and locally during September and this shot of a buzzard with its wings wide open and from below was above a meadow in Norfolk.

New survey from the Annenberg Center is out. Less than a quarter of Americans (23%) have a favorable view of RFK Jr. Meanwhile 42% of us have a “very unfavorable” view of him, and many people (40%) are confused about whether he recommends the MMR vaccine. Horrifying stats for an HHS Secretary.

One of the things that is going to change is that we’re never ever again going to be able to be dominated by public officials who tell us, ‘Trust the experts,’” Mr. Kennedy said during the Tuesday session.

“If somebody tells you, ‘Masks work, trust the experts,’ A.I. may tell you otherwise,” he added. “If somebody tells you, ‘Social distancing works, trust the experts,’ A.I. may correct that. And if somebody tells you that a vaccine will prevent transmission and infection, or you need to take it to protect your grandmother, A.I. may say it actually doesn’t do that.”

I don't have any real tips/steps, just I do this: look directly at someone & say "That's a pretty fucked up thing to say when you look at exactly what you said. It's inappropriate and you have (a daughter, wife, friend) etc that immediately hurts. So I'd say probably don't say shit like that again"
