imagine complaining about a form of mass travel that connects the world when you have done nothing, taken ZERO action, -- i KNOW that to be the case because no nation in the world has passed a single law, not ONE, to stop billionaire oligarchs from traveling on private jets / shut down "general aviation" (private planes)
the climate was heated by the few & it will not be repaired by tearing down & making powerless peasants out of people on the ground

i don't know what hummingbird they are illustrating but i think this was brought home in hummingbirds when a VERY widespread & (we thought) well-known hummingbird, the white-necked jacobin, was discovered that if you did the DNA test, around 10-20% of the birds in "male" plumage were "females" (capable of laying eggs)

Happy Birthday, my rescue cockatiel Boobear is now 30!!!!! he was banded in July 1996 and outlived his original owner but he has found a loving home with deep companionship with my rescue lovebird Nyota who was found in Biloxi Bay after Hurricane Isaac in 2012
Photo taken a few minutes ago...

for your #WindowFriday, have a 20 year old post-Katrina Biloxi shot taken by one of the original or maybe the original Olympus Uzi -- the C2100UZ (not sure if there were any earlier ones in the sequence)

there's a buttload of hungry caracaras out here
let me be on your side of the glass
(OK, there's a story -- this well-grown Great Thrush nestling is growing up right against the window glass of the Tambo Condor restaurant, presumably the parents like having humans nearby to ward off any baby-eating predators in the area)

pink flower was a big draw... hummingbirds have good eyesight & i think they noticed that one of the resort staff was hitting this photogenic flower from time to time with a syringe of sugar water because birbs came from all over
for this image of the white-booted rackettail clutching on to drink deep, i tried some split toning to give a more filmy feel...

unless stopped, they will take it all because they don't live here & they don't think our little lives of any value so why should we be allowed to live
i mean, i see the places they're attacking, mississippi for instance
and the places they've traditionally poisoned like louisiana where i live
none of the people making billions off oil or AI or any of it live here

he wasn't writing contemporary fiction, he was writing science fiction
i was just thinking about how i do it
science fiction has a longer view but contemporary fiction is meant to speak to the people of its time
altho it's notable that Stephen King name checks all kinds of people & places, if the fic becomes "classic," the later readers not catching the reference doesn't matter-- it becomes color or flavor, maybe?

the poor are targeted because if the cops seize a few thousand dollars, the cost of the specialized maritime/civil forfeiture lawyer is more than the money
an example: a poor man lost his home in Hurricane Hugo in 1989, FEMA gave him $8K to rebuild (in other words, he was very poor, the home was a shack in So. Carolina)
cops seized the cash & even tho FEMA couldn't get it back...
do that for a few decades, it starts to add up
