Millions of acres of Latin American forest have been cleared for coffee plantations, and some of the birds at your feeder are paying the price.

Most of the warblers, orioles, tanagers, and thrushes you enjoy each summer spend the winter in Latin America's coffee country. Traditional coffee grows beneath a canopy of native trees, and those shade farms can support bird communities.

But much of the industry shifted toward high-yield "sun coffee," which often means clearing trees and growing coffee in the open. The result is dramatically poorer habitat for migratory birds.

So read the bag. The Smithsonian's "Bird Friendly" seal is the gold standard, and "shade-grown" coffee is usually a better choice than conventional sun coffee.

If you want birds at your feeder all summer, they need a forest when winter comes.

I finally understand what Machiavelli meant when he said, “Never play fair in a game where others cheat.” It doesn’t mean become evil. It means stop being naive. Stop bringing honesty to people who study manipulation, stop giving access to people who weaponize closeness, and stop expecting clean hands from people who already showed you they’ll throw dirt. Sometimes wisdom is not revenge. Sometimes wisdom is learning the rules of the room before the room uses your goodness against you.

“A man should hear a little music, read a little poetry, and see a fine picture every day of his life, in order that worldly cares may not obliterate the sense of the beautiful which God has implanted in the human soul.”

No, no puedes trabajar de 9 a 5 y caminar 10,000 pasos al día, leer 2 libros a la semana, cocinar todas las noches, limpiar a diario, mantener amistades, cuidar de tu familia, cuidarte a ti mismo, dormir 8 horas, cultivar hobbies y ser completamente productivo en el trabajo todos los días.

Eso no es motivación, es una tontería irreal.
Libérate de eso.

@FlounderJuice @Thebiglade So very sorry. Infertility is so difficult and cancer is so unfair. I had two 20 week miscarriages and never have put my head around it. My daughter & SIL just stopped trying after 10 years. Devastating for all. I wish you and your wife the very best.
