The Camberwell Beauty butterfly rarely visits flowers for nectar, preferring to get aggressively hammered on fermented tree sap. Loaded on natural ethanol, it routinely stumbles into rough bark and forgets how to navigate in a straight line. Would you rather flutter delicately among the daisies, or join the temperate forest's rowdiest winged alcoholic? redbubble.com/shop/ap/183972… Lepidopterists studying Nymphalis antiopa note that this regal insect almost entirely boycotts typical blossoms, actively tracking the scent of bubbling oak sap and rotting orchard fruit instead. Field collectors long exploited this biological vice, bypassing floral meadows to paint rough timber with fermented molasses and sour ale. Flashing rich plum velvet framed by pale margins and iridescent sapphire spots, the creature projects the solemn majesty of a 19th-century imperial portrait. The ecological reality is an unrepentant tavern crawl. It gorges on volatile alcohols until its fine motor control disintegrates, leaving a majestic herald of spring wobbling through the understory like a disgraced country squire.

FOSSIL FUEL CORPORATIONS CONDEMN US TO CENTURIES OF HEATING Even if these companies stopped emitting tomorrow, the carbon they’ve already spewed into the atmosphere will continue heating the planet for centuries to come. The basic science is that burning fossil fuels has to stop- to stop the heating, which lasts for hundreds of years. journals.plos.org/climate/ar… #Fossilfuels #ClimateChange #globalwarming

PAXIS.app can come up with ICE jokes. It takes facts about ICE and gives them an unexpected twist: How did the ICE agent’s wife find out he was cheating on her? He came home with another woman’s lipstick on his knuckles. PAXIS helps people understand their constitutional rights and how to respond lawfully during ICE encounters. It’s funded entirely by donations, keeping it out of the hands of corporate PACs. Help keep it free: GoFundMe.com/PAXIS

33% is about the same approval poll as if Trump had shot someone on 5th Avenue.

Trump’s goal now is to preserve his executive authority and budget control post-midterm elections. He loses much of his executive authority and budget control without Congressional control. That’s what’s at stake. That’s why he seeks to smother the Democratic vote.

Israel’s military objective is obliteration of Palestine as a state, and Palestinians as a people.

Business Principle #1: Growth on Earth of any kind; physical, biologic, economic, is limited. All have limits. The economist-loved measure of GDP is no different.

If this post-Soviet-style apartment bloc in the Phoenix, Arizona photo is one of the “best places to live in the U.S.”, why live there? That’s just an advertisement for an eyesore.

Now, immigration as a voter concern has fallen below cost of living, health care, and corruption.

How can “aspirational luxury” in Gaza be a result of the recent Israeli butchery? Paltrow needs a fix on reality.

Leave it to someone with Trump genes, in this case Ivanka, to stand in front of the world’s 8 billion people and tell us a bald-faced lie about their, Javanka’s, attempted theft of Sazan Island from Albania, Albania’s only offshore island. Ivanka wants a beach where they can wiggle their bare toes in private, more privately than at Mar-A-Lago. Anyone who believes Ivanka’s words has sh*t for brains.
