Games Workshop pricing is truly something.

Sporty crow likes a trendy downward feather flurffle unbothered by posh pretensions of total coiffness. No, this hip crowster of today lets it all hang out with a chic blase attitude that tells the world "I'm free and I know it." With just a dash of fir tree pine-cone pinache. Oh yeah.

Every season there's the moody crow waddling down the runway, clutching a plank of wood like a corvid lumberjack. Burly, surly, off to bed early, this crow can bench press your mother and swallow large rats whole without even a second thought. That look around the eyes--that's the knowing look of a crow that knows who they are. Oh la la, that's sexy.

Goth crow doth hideth the head and frequent Dark Star Magick on the corner of Burnside and 8th, before ambling down to Grendel's Coffee House for a Bauhaus Special Blend. This is a feathery, leathery crow whose bashful side has a dark allure. Favorite author? Crowley, of course.

Crows about town dress up in their slick, tailored tuxes, black tie, cummerbund, and tails, of course. Maybe there's a little saucy Je ne sais quoi to their penchant for mimicking chimney sweeps and playing ring around the rosy, but these two cheeky champs couldn't be more serious about their fashion sense. Swank is back, baby.

Neighborhood crows strutting their stuff. More in the alt text on their lifestyles and fashion sense.

Going to win the discourse by going to a restaurant, and getting food from another restaurant deliverood to me.

Well I think they’re the Most Sandpiper #birds

I didn't think it was, but thank you bowling ball

Honestly believe that these ultra specific laws brought in to satisfy some public campaign, complicating the legal code further, are a major part of Britain's issues

The Traitors UK

David Olusoga OBE is a British-Nigerian historian, writer, broadcaster, BAFTA winning film-maker and Professor of Public History at the University of Manchester

The Traitors US

Rob Rausch is an American snake wrangler and television personality who has appeared on Love Island USA

Tried to watch Untamed, a show about a crime in Yosemite NP, filmed in British Columbia. At one point it has a Harris's hawk in it, native to neither of those places. Literally unwatchable

Awful lot of people seem to think that they're talking about Mexican chorizo, in a match between England and Spain...

Some absolutely insane replies to this, 11/10 stuff no notes.

whole lot of tension on social media comes from the fact, imo, that the Very Online are either 1) people who love The World and other people so much that IRL isn't enough and they must socialise on the computer as well 2) people who hate The World and other people IRL and only want the computer

The US just needs Tesco Metro tbh. Like half of US online discourse seems downstream of them somehow not inventing Walmart But The Size Of A Corner Shop, And Everywhere

As promised, bears!

that said the US is badly in need of the Tesco Meal Deal for office workers.

Black bear cub chewing on a branch after climbing a tree

Look at it chomp!

As promised, bears!

I’ve gone out wanting to see some northern pacific rattlesnakes and I’ve only seen a mountain lion and 5 bears instead. How disappointing…

Did have two bear encounters today, including one with a mother and two cubs that were right in front of me on the trail. I have pictures of those (only taken once at a safe distance) though

Didn’t get a picture of it but a Mountain Lion ran across the road in front of our car in Yosemite. Honestly never thought I’d end up seeing one

Coyote walking through undergrowth. Alert

The face of someone who knows they sometimes wake me up at night with their incessant howling

Never seen so many Cooper’s Hawks in one place. At least 6 all hanging out around the same tree. Photos of some. #birds

The Black necked Stilts here hang around with American Avocets, and when they’re together you can clearly see how wrong you are and actually the latter are the best

Help, I’m stuck in a Looney Tunes cartoon! #birds

Dissertation Defense scheduled for next month! PhD almost done now!

Jurassic park toy. Cyborg looking man on motorbike that is supposedly Dennis Nedry is firing a gun at a raptor.

My favourite part of Jurassic Park was when Dennis Nedry gets turned into Robocop to get his revenge on the dinosaurs
