Never let it be said that the lessons of 1933 Germany were not learned. The Shitler's neo-nazis have learnt them extremely well as they repeat the efforts almost exactly as Hitler's nazis did.

The #BirdOfTheDay theme chosen by @alan678.bsky.social today is #EyeContact something the local Pied Currawongs (Strepera graculina) project fiercely!

Per @robcrank68.bsky.social the #BirdOfTheDay theme is #iridescent and here's a Straw-necked Ibis (Threskiornis spinicollis) at Oxley Creek Common demonstrating it.

Surely "born" is misspelled. Shouldn't it be "porn"?

True enough, although there remains in that scenario the issue of marketing believing they're subject-matter experts and usability experts when they're so often very much not at all. In essence, the key is, as it is in most aspects of life, communication.

I'd already for #BirdOfTheDay theme #walking but then remembered these all from Rio del Mar beach, #Aptos
Sanderlings (Calidris alba): We're walking, we're walking
Semi-palmated Plover (Charadrius semipalmatus)
Willet (Tringa semipalmata) on sunset gold

There's been a myriad of examples over the years. I worked at one place where a feature was changed to the point it actually broke rules (not something you should do in high tech health) because marketing had spoken to one user who wanted it that way. In other words, screw the needs of the majority.

A largish black bird with grey speckled chest, wrinkled yellow neck collar, and bare dark red neck and head with sparse black feathering and a prominent black tail walks on lawn.

@alan678.bsky.social ’s theme for #BirdOfTheDay is #walking and here's an Australian Brushturkey (Alectura lathami) doing just that at Mt Coot-tha Botanic Gardens

Hmmm, the big difference is that even when over-the-top, Williams and Carey were occasionally funny. Sandler, not so much.

On the flipside, marketing far too often tells engineering to replace a feature users actually need with some bright shiny, but utterly useless (if not actually outright detrimental) fluff!

Just to note that the Democrats are not centrists (or of the left) as defined in most of the rest of the world! They are well right of centre. Which shows just how far to the extreme right the MAGAts are.

The US gave up any Claim to Greenland in 1916 and 1941

To paraphrase one of the comments on this video: You know we’re in dangerous times when a history channel feels the need to comment on current events.

Cheers, Glynis, thank you. And they are one of those iconic birds that are a delight to see. Shame they're not here in Oz, but then again we have so many birds that the North Americans are envious of.

Great minds think alike (or is it fools seldom differ, I'm going with the former 😜) as I've also posted a female Cardinal for the BotD. And a nicely done shot of her, Todd.

A redwing (thrush) ealing a red hawthron berry in a treetop. The sky is a vivid, cloudless blue.
