27 years ago today, on October 9, 1999, the Houston Astros played their last game at the Astrodome. The team had played at the Dome for for 34 years. In 2000 they started playing at Enron Field aka Minute Maid Park aka Daikin Park. Here: fans at the last game, courtesy the Houston Chronicle.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Waders; any wading bird. This white ibis was searching for food along the shoreline. Background replaced to direct focus to the bird (and because it's fun to replace backgrounds). I do it by hand using masking. #birds #ECK #photography #wildlifephotography #ibis

If people really want to see live executions they should just follow ICE agents around.

They’re live-streaming the execution of the person they think they can get away with doing that to first. It’s a test. If they can do that, they’ll expand the margins of permission.

This is a moral atrocity and it needs to be loudly condemned as such. There is a reason that democracies *don't* do publicly televised executions (and why many don't execute people at all): it inculcates and rewards bloodthirst, which corrupts the spirit and corrodes the foundation of the polity.

Alt #BirdOfTheDay theme is #perched (on anything other than branches). Our neighborhood American Kestrel was keeping watch from the top of a rusty, old archway yesterday evening. #birds #nature #photography

Neiman Marcus closed its downtown Dallas flagship on Wednesday. The store played a notable role in the history of desegregation in Dallas. Previously, Black shoppers across the US could enter department stores, but they weren't allowed to try on clothes without adhering to certain conditions. 🧵

If you respond to my observations about Democrats’ chances in Texas by saying the GOP will pull off a state-wide sweep and “Texas is going to Texas,” I will block you. We are not a monolith; that remark dismisses the incredible work activists did and are doing to get us as close as we are.
