not having your life jacket zipped and clipped before approaching the boat on the birding tour is like the faux pas of all faux pas. the capitan is laughing at you. the guide is laughing at you. the laughing gulls are [red dot appears on my head]

jesus christ. a driver hit and ran a cyclist outside my apartment this morning. I heard honks, then screams. fuck cars and fuck drivers. esp fuck the impatient drivers honking to turn down the street in the exact way that the driver hit the cyclist 30 minutes ago cause one lane is blocked by EMTs.

dude I'm so excited for all the posts tomorrow complaining about the cycling race. babe if you walked or biked you could cross the race line and wouldn't be trapped. you trapped yourself by trying to drive during this very well warned about annual event!

it bugs me when other birders come to a site wanting clear directions to a rare bird from the non-birding site staff. terrain navigation is an enriching part of the experience! it's not cheating or anything if you have directions, but don't expect non-birders to give you the gps coordinates lol

bumper stickers are all fun and games in our weird little town until I google your oddly specific one and find your X account and think about rejoining the app to @ you since you didn't put your cart away in the aldi parking lot and have broken the social contract

Wikipedia screenshot: 
The Baltimore oriole (Icterus galbula) is a small icterid blackbird common in eastern Norht America as a migratory breeding bird. It received its name from the city of Baltimore, which is where all the orioles live. If you see them in a different place they are just on vacation. [2]

I made it up, it's not real
