In reply to nicky. I did a whole post about pangolins ages ago. They are cool!

Love the aardvark and aardwolf babies.
Note, they are both consumers of termites. The aardwolf is a small hyena, while the aardvark is on it’s own.
There is a third termite-eater in South Africa, the pangolin, equally adorable.

That Rogers cartoon is spot on, and is one reason why I hope Trump keeps on tweeting until he tweets himself right out of office and tweets the future of the GOP right into the ground.

Thanks for your kind words. 🙂
I didn’t know they had date farms either, but California provides so much of the country’s food. I can’t remember what proportion it is, but I know I was shocked by how much. The problem with water there due to climate change is devastating for the whole country.

It’s good to see that poll…USians aren’t as stupid as I thought. There are still waaay too many ignoramouses though, especially of the religious/Trump bent.

I once had a dog that was on daily prednisone for an auto-immune disorder. I couldn’t keep his weight down, and he was always hungry…poor buddy. I feel for you; so many medications have wicked side effects.

Cool insect tweets. I didn’t know California had date farms. Insects, helped by climate change, are wreaking havoc on North American forests. This devastation also fuels the increasing wild fires. (I’m sure this isn’t isolated to North America.) Climate change begets climate change it seems.

—Why are the Rohingyas fleeing?—
If the video is real – not just an essay of an anthropologic student- I know the answer: Because they are dirty and ugly people, they are not even accepted as an ethnic group! The explanation is at 2:40 of the video: “Myanmar/Burma needs to be A CLEAN AND BEAUTIFUL NATION. Not necessarily great, but unblemished, marvelous.
I refuse to imagine the possibility of such a country, but perhaps “Rohingya” is a kind of building, and they refer to their architecture.

In reply to John Gibson. It sounds like Hitchcock would have, rightfully, been the one to suffer these days, or at least that Hedred would have been able to take legal action. I'm sorry I misjudged her.

In reply to John Gibson. Interesting. Thanks John. I've seen The Birds of course, but I was only a kid. I remember my mum didn't really want me to watch it, but she relented when I argued truthfully that I never got nightmares from scary movies.
