Katzenklo, Katzenklo!
Mein Garten ist ein Katzenklo!
Das macht auch die Vögel froh.
Und die Katze sowieso.

I work from home but am expected to go into the office for a retreat tomorrow.

I hate retreats. Please help me come up with an excuse to miss work tomorrow.

No it doesn't make sense for me to buy a bunch of new sheet music and then immediately put it all on the bookshelf without playing any of it but in my defense I'm VERY irresponsible with my money

What kind of bird is that? It eats out of the robin feeder but seems a bit too fluffy for a robin ;) The resident robin is also slightly confused.

The first spring flowers in the garden have it rough since every critter seems to enjoy a bite. Still happy to see the first color.

Inspired by a recent cross-disciplinary meeting, here's an attempt to explain a geology word using the most common 1000 words checked by text editor inspired by xkcd:
https://splasho.com/upgoer5/#

Peridotite
A rock which comes from a deep place of our world and looks green because it is formed of pieces that are also green. This rock is heavy and makes up a large part of the deep rock world.

Figure caption excluded from that rule.

I really liked the debut Halo Effect album but I’m really not sure on the new single 🤔 #Metal #HeavyMetal #NewMusic

A relatively recent comment asks if astrobiology is serious science.
https://www.nature.com/articles/s41550-023-02165-9

Unfortunately the main text is hiding behind a paywall so not accessible to everyone but the short summary is: yes it is.
As somebody working in an astrobiology research group, I am more intrigued why this still seems to be a question that needs to be addressed.

What do you think?

This is Roger and he shows up at my door to the garden several times a day to get suet pellets. He also has a habit of stacking the pellets in his beak during nesting season. We're friends for a few years now. He gets food in return for brightening my day.
