"An Indigenous opera singer is bringing back his community's traditions and songs...

The classically-trained tenor used wax cylinder recordings of his ancestors singing in the early 1900s, which had been locked away in the national archive for decades.

Wolastoqiyik Lintuwakonawa — translated as "Songs of the River People" — is sung entirely in Wolastoqey, a language fewer than 100 people speak."

A friend of a friend in California can't find a doctor who will prescribe her ADHD medications. She doesn't have a doctor or primary care practitioner *at all*, and needs a doctor who is willing to take new patients without a referral.

Can you help recommend someone? She'd prefer LA/San Diego area, but is willing to drive to San Francisco/Bay Area if necessary.

Let me know and I'll pass on the contact info.

And please boost! 🙏

"...but like many superheroes, the Blanket Octopus gets a really rough deal in the romance arena. when a male locates a female, he swims up, rips one of his arms off, hands it to her, wanders off, and dies. TA-DA. that’s it for the Blanket Octopus romance arc.

it’s both the world’s worst and least romantic handshake."

Remember my earlier toot about "wtf, nature"?

I was browsing a Peertube instance earlier and stumbled upon a copy of The Internet's Own Boy, a documentary about Aaron Swartz.

I haven't seen it before so I decided to give it a watch.

By the end of it I was in tears, I don't think I've seen anything in a while that made me cry like that.

Also, I had no idea he co-authored the RSS 1.0 specification, wow.

Good morning, Tootie-buddies.

This morning we are getting a load of gravel delivered to freshen up the driveway, so expect to hear me whining sometime soon about how I'm getting too old for this 💩

If you know someone looking to buy a home in the Ukiah, California area with solar, double-paned windows, fish ponds, and a garden that's the source of some of the food photos and most of the flower photos I share with you, please let them know

I just came across the acronym POTATO for Person Over Thirty Acting Twenty One, and I'm more like Person Over Thirty Anxious Tired Overwhelmed.
