I forgot I had some shots of this former raccoon. Perfect for the #BlueSkyArtShow theme of #LightAndShadow this Saturday. Not just the dappled sunlight but the ray of life emerging from the shadow of death.

I can't believe it's almost June. Time flies when you've lost all faith in humanity.

Recently I've watched several documentaries about the 1960s & the Vietnam War -- lots that's relevant today
This one notion stuck with me more than anything else I learned
I'd never heard it or considered this before

This is phenomenal.
Sea surface temperatures are >5C above average to the west of the UK and around Iceland. It's the strongest area of anomalous warmth on the planet at the moment.
It's the warmest in recorded history for northwest Europe.

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%.
Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

Not a nebula—just Earth showing off. NASA astronaut Anne McClain snapped this stunning top-down view of lightning from the ISS, lighting up night clouds over Alabama and Georgia. Space turns storms into celestial art.

Sometimes, I look at someone and I can see the whole rotten system. They made boys into men and didn't bother to teach them to be human first.

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why.
What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?
