This sweet little mourning dove came close as it foraged under the redwoods. I love the iridescent feathers at the base of its neck. Don't see these often in my 'hood, as Eurasian collared doves predominate. Taken June 2025 in #RohnertPark, #California

I don't go to the gym to become a pretty boy with abs. I go to the gym to train so that I can wrestle bears in the forest, knock out a bull with my fist, and carry a wild boar with my hands.

With the current situation happening in the US, I think this is the perfect time for the other countries to level up their funding for science and attract US based scientists to migrate to their country.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024.
You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right?
Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year.
You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

One thing the Govt of Saskatchewan did right? Never allowed employees to use Dropbox or any US-based digital storage because of the possibility that US Homeland Security could read it.
In committee work with government employees it was a hassle, but I appreciate IT’s caution now.

Does Philippines have a back up plan to address the trade war started by Trump? Ideally PH could just stop trade with the U.S and redirect resources towards BRICs and EU, and countries with commonwealth, but in reality this is impossible, so Philippines what's the plan?
