In Pennsylvania it is illegal for police or soldiers to be within 100 feet of a polling place unless they are in the process of voting or for specific limited exceptions, such as when the polling place is within 100 feet of the police station entrance. Just so you’re aware. 25 P.S. 3047

There is a hotline maintained by the Pennsylvania Department of State to report issues at polling locations in Pa: 1-877-VOTESPA

I feel it’s safe now to talk about this leopard seal that was on a Christchurch beach back in September - gorgeous isn’t he?? He was quite little though, maybe ~7 feet. And, sleepy. And contrary to popular belief, we have resident leopard seals here in NZ! 🦑🦊🧪🌎

Damnit, folded the cat wrong again, it’s worse than fitted sheets.

There are two rules to PNW spider season. 1. Always have your spider stick handy 2. If you see a spider that has built a web out of the way, leave it! If you take it down, it will seek revenge on you and build a web across your porch so you get it to the face the next day.

Good morning from Barrea, which is not aesthetically pleasing at all

Pretty key sentence. People have screamed “ITS ENDEMIC” at me since at least 2023, and A) it wasn’t and B) using endemic to mean “it’s fine now” is very, very stupid.

"We were told it was going to be endemic, and people didn't really think that that just meant it was going to keep coming back. It is back," Thirsk said.

Migration continues, and most of those birds in the East are Yellow-rumped Warblers, followed by kinglets, creepers, and Hermit Thrushes 😂

I got this tonight, one foreground and one background video. The background footage is at 30%, captured in the same minute on a tripod. The crop jumped to the right of the frame during the background footage. Fun guys! 🪶 🐦‍⬛

The free printmaking workshop was so much fun! I came away with some fantastic ideas and I really really want to sign up for her full course on how to do tesselation nature prints but there’s no way I can afford it at the moment. But here is what I made!

A small tessellated print comprised of alternating purple and green prince of a stag beetle that was carved into an eraser. Be nice I drew him free hand.

There’s a hit country song title if I’ve ever heard one.

I'm not volunteering this year because work conflicts with the extremely small number of shifts that are not already full*, but if you see something like this, call Election Protection at 866-OUR-VOTE to report it. *actually great that there were so many volunteers that this happened!

RIP to our $1 raffle ticket microwave of many decades. Best value for a dollar ever.

Photo of a very old GE microwave. It has a dial for a timer of up to 35 minutes, a dial for heating temperatures, and a big push start button. It is old.
