This is the Groove-billed Ani (Crotophaga sulcirostris), and it's just straight up a dinosaur.

Like, I know *all* birds are technically avian dinosaurs, but my first thought looking at this guy is: dinosaur.

From the WTF with Marc Maron Podcast interview Episode 1431, May 1, 2023. In discussion of depression. Thoughts on this: only light is something (energy), darkness is nothing; the absence of light is all it is. Don't give it power; seek (and hold out for) THE LIGHT.

"The de minimis exception has allowed for packages valued under $800 to come in to the U.S. duty-free." This will end.

"Starting at 12:01 a.m. on May 2, carriers will either have to pay a 120% rate on the package or a $100 package fee. On June 1, that fee will jump from $100 to $200." USA TODAY

Federal workers fear Muskโ€™s โ€˜efficiencyโ€™ agency is using AI to spy on them: โ€˜They are omnipresentโ€™ The billionaireโ€™s Doge may be secretly recording meetings in at least two agencies, according to emails from senior officials

Musk routinely denigrates federal employees, and is turning the public sector into a toxic workplace. But you can't criticize him: Musk is using AI "to scan through agency communications to find any anti-Musk, anti-Doge, or anti-Trump statements.โ€

Scary things that you may have recently read headlines about that it turned out you didnโ€™t have to worry about include: microplastics in your brain, black plastic spatulas, intermittent fasting, and plant based meat alternatives.

Also, no, you do not eat a credit cardโ€™s worth of plastic a month.

Weโ€™ve got a friend in Wisconsin who said she wasnโ€™t worried about potential cuts to Medicaid because she and her 3 kids donโ€™t need it - theyโ€™re on BadgerCare. She was stunned when I told her they were all on Medicaid.

Protecting people from shame by renaming MA has definite downsides.
