This is the anniversary of the publication, in 1859, of perhaps the most seminal and influential book in the history of biology, "On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection," by Charles Darwin. Here are his thoughts on trees.

I don’t like to talk about neurodivergent sense experience in terms of hyper and hypo sensitivity. Because there is no “correct” or just-right Goldilocks standpoint from which to judge. Neurodivergent people are not “incorrectly” experiencing the world. To say “more so” or “less so” misses this.

On Monday I’m teaching a class on Vietnam in the Diem era including the Buddhist crisis. Googled the self-immolation of Thic Quang Duc only to find that one of the top image hits is Walmart selling cheap prints of the moment of his death.

If you have a prescription and you want to comparison shop, check out Amazon pharmacy. I have found them to be cheaper filling most of my prescriptions WITHOUT running it through my insurance company. Surprise.

Another old animation: effect of fossil preservation probability on our perception of extinction patterns (the Signor-Lipps effect). 2/3 of species disappear in an instantaneous mass extinction at the pink horizon, but as preservation probability declines the event *appears* more & more protracted.
