Happy All Saints Day! They really do mean *all* saints. I like these somewhat crowded portraits, from 15th century France.

Brainy crows can hold grudges for years, and some people who face their ire may be victims of mistaken identity.

when they are called upon to say the great Yes

Trophy hunters slaughtered 4 (quota is 3) Yellowstone National Park wolves yesterday. One had a radio collar.
These wolves are worth so much more alive but @GovGianforte, @MontanaFWP and the Commission are not smart enough to realize their value.

Do you think somebody possibly has video of Trump mocking the handicapped, demeaning US prisoners of war, boasting about sexually assaulting women, praising Vladimir Putin, or urging a violent attack on the US Capitol? That would be huge.

The food self-sufficiency people think of themselves as these rugged individualists, when they're more like Marie Antoinette with her ornamental farm at Versailles. A pastoral fantasy only possible because modern economies shelter you from the brutality of subsistence farming

I know that it was an asteroid that hit Earth way back then, but this is still very creative

So sad and entirely preventable.

Anyone who claims to be an American MAGA and whines on Twitter about the Moldovan election is a Russian troll farm account.

No actual American MAGA even knows where or what Moldova is.

Some more Tsuchinshan-ATLAS photos, this time over Canary Springs. If you miss it this time around don't worry, it will be back again in 80,000 years!

[Yellowstone National Park @YellowstoneNPS]

Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS is still visible in the night sky, but not for long! It’s not too late to grab a glimpse of the brightest comet for a decade. 📸: NPS/Christopher Atkinson 🙏🏽

For the first time in 114 years, biologists from the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife have observed a fall-run Chinook salmon returning to spawn in the Klamath Basin in Oregon, after dam removal.

If only the Biden Administration listened to this man, millions of Americans and European lives could be saved.

Historic speech.

I’ve had this for ten years.

Nothing changes.

[Cory Doctorow NO LONGER ON TWIT TER @doctorow]

Billionaires are *pretty confident* that they can't be taxed - not just that they *shouldn't* be taxed, but rather, that it is *technically impossible* to tax the ultra-rich. They're not shy about explaining why, either - and neither is their army of lickspittles.

The eternal research question: is this terribly written or am I too stupid to understand the argument?

Margaret Thatcher would have been 99 today. But thankfully she died in 2013
