Metallic-green Tanager

Small tanager found in Andean subtropical zone from Colombia to Peru. Unique seafoam green color, often appearing fairly dull. Greener than Golden-naped Tanager and lacks the spangled appearance of Beryl-spangled Tanager. Also note small black mask, black nape, and black wings with thin green edges. Buffy undertail coverts and vent only visible at some angles. Sexes alike. A fairly common member of mixed flocks from around 1,300–2,300 m, in cloud forest and edges.

Controversial retail take 

@aredridel @inquiline@union.place @tim "I made up a person with some paper and I promise they won't be a sociopath"

*flings open window* “You there, boy! What day is this?”

“To-day? Why, it's the Anthropocene Working Group's announcement of the ‘golden spike’ location, a single geological repository of evidence that best embodies the proposed epoch.”

Controversial retail take 

@maxfenton ohhh tertulia seems cool!!

Controversial retail take 

I've used them and all but honestly it is not clear to me that bookshop dot org is genuinely better on a warehouse labor conditions level than Amazon? But would be happy to be told they are actually good and fair employers or whatever

The internalized hustle culture urge to push myself to do a lot of work when I am still barely out of the woods recovering from walking pneumonia

ughhhh all I want to do is start a small press and print shop it is a bad idea!!

who called it object oriented programming and not class struggle

"Close to the metal" is a fundamentally horny phrase and I think it's OK to admit that

Brooklyn during Fourth of July weekend would be a really good setting for an intimate psychological thriller IMO

the platform wars 

weird to realize so much of what's happening right now online bottoms out in the idea that a lot of people want to hang out at the mall

uh were any of you people who signed up to #threads actually paying attention to the onboarding flow?

buttondown.email/perfectsenten this week in sentences: gaping wounds, the only infirmity, scabrous, secret passages, methamphetamine armpit

Nervously, I close the bag. “No way,” I tell myself. “It’s not like she’s gonna count the fries.” I start to sweat.

ph, chest infection vibes, something which I may not know you well enough to say 

@benlk one hypothesis: whooping cough!
