Good morning! I'm in Uganda to visit family and friends.

But depending on your perspective, don't worry or I'm sorry: I'll be back by the end of the month.

See you soon, NYC.

While today’s updates make your blood boil, this one simply breaks your heart. Our social circle in Delhi was people in charities and NGOs, i grew up knowing the work they do and still have family working across the world in schemes like this. It’s just so callous and cruel to sever this aid

This is a gut-wrenching, beautifully written essay. A doctor must watch helplessly as children die because USAID's freeze on aid has limited access to nutritional supplements. time.com/7258248/us-f...

supporting trans people is weird cause they don't like, need you to do anything? like they ask you to use their name when addressing to them and that's about it? maybe a hug? to eat something they baked?

like, it's significantly harder not to support them.

I can't find the dove-specific study now but it is noteworthy that large nest size is also correlated with increased predation, both due to nest predation but also because the birds are exposed to predators as they gather nesting materials!

Why Pigeons Make Bad Nests: A defense of pigeon aesthetics
A six-panel comic. In panel 1, there's a pigeon standing awkwardly next to a pile of sticks with two eggs on it, and the panel is titled "Why pigeons make bad nests: A defense of pigeon aesthetics." In panel 2, a pigeon sits on a pile of sticks: "Many people think that pigeons are bad at making nests. Here are three good reasons why pigeon nests look bad." In panel 3, there's "Reason 1: Some birds, like orioles, nest in tree branches, so they weave elaborate structures that can withstand the elements..." And there's a female Baltimore Oriole weaving an elaborate hanging nest in a silver maple tree. In panel 4, "...but rock pigeons evolved to nest in crevices in cliffs, safely tucked away." And there's a pigeon sitting on a nest in a hole in a cliff. In panel 5, "Reason 2: People domesticated pigeons ages ago. Pigeons didn't need fancy nests because they had human-built homes." A beautiful dovecote shelters a flock of pigeons. In panel 6, "Reason 3: Less time making nest = more time eating seed." A pigeon pecks a seed near its nest, and says "It's called math."

There's something dizzying with movements like raw water, anti-vax, or the maha crowd, where people want, on some deeper level, a world that's less polluted, healthier, and sustainable but they refuse to acknowledge policies that help achieve that reality, or the scientific progress that holds it up
