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.

“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 

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

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?

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 

I've been sick with a not-covid hell virus for a little over a week and last night/this morning the coughing got so bad that I was coughing up mucus with little flecks of blood in it. Technically I am doing "better" insofar as I don't have a fever anymore but coughing up blood seems like a bad trajectory? I am so tired

If you want to hear from the person who broke the story about SCOTUS using a made up case to create a ruling in favor of anti-LGBTQIA bigotry, @melissagira will be on MSNBC in about an hour.
