I like prog rock/jazz fusion, dogs and ice cream. Avoid using clichés like the plague. Atheist. Nazis should be punched in the face. AFT.

I often post pictures of birds and other random objects to offset my doomscrolling. (Pictures my own unless noted.)

President Donald Trump on Friday accused Joe Biden as having once farted in his general direction and asked the Department of Justice to open an investigation.

This is absurd. To put it in perspective:

1 million seconds is 11.5 days. That's less than two weeks.

1 billion seconds is 31.7 years. A billion seconds ago was 1994.

1 trillion seconds is 31,689 years. A trillion seconds ago, humans were still in the Stone Age and couldn't write or grow food.

I caught a few good pictures of the Eared Grebes (aka Black-necked Grebe) yesterday including this one that had just found something to eat. Love those bright red eyes. 🤩 More pics in the comments.

A bird gently swims in the water with an insect (?) that it just caught hanging from its mouth, looking quite proud. The bird has a grey and white back with a straight neck supporting its black-and-white head. It has bright red eyes and a pointed bill.

Weird. It’s like I’m suddenly tired an hour before my usual bedtime. Good night.

Here’s our Halloween pumpkin this year, “carved” with the help of the neighborhood squirrels 😂🎃🐿️👻

#halloween #pumpkin #jackolantern #spooktober
A pumpkin has been desecrated by squirrels with the eyes and mouth barely discernible due to the entire face having been chewed away by the tree-dwelling rodents. There is a red light shining from inside the pumpkin.

Autumn colors across the tundra in Denali National Park, Alaska. The brief season when the hills turn red and gold before winter sets in.

Landscape photograph of Denali National Park in early autumn. The foreground tundra is covered in red, orange, and yellow foliage with scattered spruce trees. In the distance, gray and brown mountains rise under a cloudy sky. Patches of yellow shrubs and dark green trees follow the valleys leading up to the ridges, creating a layered, colorful scene that fades toward the horizon.

Another overused sports cliché is baseball announcers talking about teams “putting up a crooked number.” Please stop.

I don’t know what football announcer came up with the phrase of players “running downhill,” but whoever it was I’d like to slap them upside the head. 😄🏈

Ummm...
A red and white striped chair and ottoman... geezus, I don't even know how to describe it. It's all curvy and looks like it has a huge bosom at the top of the chair. It's got high, rounded armrests on the sides and front of the chair almost looks like crossed legs if you use your imagination. It looks like the kind of furniture that will be out of style as soon as it leaves the store.

Favorite sights and signs from a very peaceful but exuberant protest crowd today in Mountain View

#NoKings #protest
A woman is holding a sign that says “I have a dream” and it shows Trump being led away with his hands and handcuffs behind his back A woman is wearing an inflatable costume That looks like her riding the back of a big giant chicken. She is holding a sign that spells out TACO: Trump always chickens out. A man is stressed as a baby, with an orange shirt and orange shorts which are down around his ankles. He is wearing a blonde wig and a mask that makes him look like Trump. Hey man is holding a sign that says“elect a clown get a circus”. Also pictured is Trump wearing clown make up.

I like these cute little Killdeer, they look like they’re all dressed up. They do seem a little camera shy though.

#Photography #Nature #birds #wildlife
Two midsized birds are walking on the dirt terrain as they hunt for insects or seeds. They have a white chest and a brown back with two black stripes around their chest and neck. The nearest one is turning away from the camera, while the one in the background seems to be looking towards the camera asking itself. “what is that guy doing?“

This guy is called a Common Merganser, but they’re not common at all where I live, in fact it’s the first time I had seen one!

Tiny waves ripple behind a gray bird with a brown head and long bill as it swims along in a lake with clear water revealing a rocky bottom.

Visiting the Alviso salt pond feels weirdly like you're on another planet

#nature #photography
A small body of water has white shores on both sides. Tall mountains are seen in the background, with cloudy skies above as well as reflected in the salt pond.

I’m so glad that extra inning games in the MLB playoffs have gone back to the traditional rules, i.e. no runner starting at second base. They should think about doing that all season long!
