The day went from clearing blue skies back to gray again, all in the course of a run — but no rain. 😊

Hope you're having a good day.

DeSantis, the über Florida man — what a joke. Unfortunately the punchline is that the people of Florida will pay for his nonsense —

"DeSantis signs bill scrubbing ‘climate change’ from Florida law"

No idea what sort of birds these are — sorry about the dogs. We heard this cacophony while out walking this evening. I thought they might be Eastern Screech Owls, but now not so sure.

Video shot on the edge of the woods this evening — deep shadows and a bit of darkening sky. No idea what birds are making noise. There are also a couple of dogs barking in the distance.

@birds
Birdsongs at the end of the day, birdsongs to begin.

Have a good day.

Video showing a clump of honeysuckle with yellow and white flower in the foreground, much low, leafy vegetation, a few relatively straight woody tree trunks and gray sky at a clearing in the woods. Gentle birdsongs fill the woods.

. This redbud is deep in the woods at what must have been a homestead once. It is at the edge of a clearing.

Have a good day.

Beautiful, cool, sunny Friday morning. There were even patches of frost on the ground in a few isolated spots.

Have a good day.

Techno-optimism.
Techno-fantabulism.
Techno-fantasy — you get the drift.
"To us, insisting that there’s a technological fix for every problem in the world seems not just optimistic, but also rather convenient if you happen to be among the richest people on Earth and in a position to profit from the technology industry."

This upbeat story is about human persistence and tenacity more than it is about technology — but the technology is pretty amazing too. And it's from 1977. That's more than 46 years ago.

Interesting discussion of monopoly practices in the sport card (e.g., baseball cards) business—
"After deciding to move into the sports trading card market, Fanatics used exclusive trademark licenses to secure the sole rights to produce MLB, NFL and NBA cards...

While some people may see baseball cards as mere child’s play, the U.S. sports card industry is estimated to be a US$12 billion market. Since...COVID-19... there’s been a surge in interest."

Crazy to me that TFG (a.k.a. he who will not be named here) and others at top of the Republican Party have convinced so many working class followers that they are the low tax party. They're not — unless you're either wealthy or a corporation: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/trump-era-tax-cuts-set-160750197.html

It really is "smoke and mirrors." It always was. Goes back to David Stockman's "trickle down economics" — and earlier!

@RunRichRun Cattle feed from other animal species may transfer other diseases. Scrapie from sheep & goats -> BSE in beef cattle.

The sun rising on a great day — do your part to make it so.

Photo: The sun just after sunrise, as seen from across a field. The trees at the edge of the field are all sillhouettes. At the horizon where the sun is, the sky is bright gold.
Photo: Looking toward the sunrise, as seen from across a field. The trees around the field are all sillhouettes. At the horizon the sky is gold and pink. The sune is barely visible between the trunks of a few thinly leafed trees.
