@GottaLaff I'm shocked! (Mmm, not really. Trump needs something for the weekend news cycle other than the Puerto Rico fuck-up!)
@RattusInsanus I had a chance to look at some birds last week through a high-end Swarovski spotting scope. It was a religious experience! I'll never own one, but I can covet the hell out of one!
@RattusInsanus Vortex makes surprisingly good optics.
@RattusInsanus I dabble in photography, mostly nature stuff. Birds, critters, flowers, landscapes, etc. Sometimes I just go out with my eyes and a pair of binoculars and look at stuff. That can be liberating after too much screen time.
@gr1fter There's potential for that!
BTW, your thumbnail pic reminded me of a particular bird...an Oystercatcher.

@RattusInsanus Cool shot. H-birds are fast little devils. Shutter speed is critical.
@_wen_ Welcome, Liz!
@steve_stunning Looks like he's going to responsible for a whole buttload of us minions.
Not bad...quality looks a lot better than the mushy mess that Facebook makes of photos.
Let's see how this picture-posting thingamabob works. https://octodon.social/media/PpF6CabvZJe-6G_EwOA
@steve_stunning We'll just hold it against him!
@ilaklad @Stonekettle Me too!
@calyanare You are not alone.
@JohnFM @Stonekettle I use coffee to keep my plumbing open, also! 😜
Throwing this out for comments. I'm reading it as Trump violates the US Constitution when he criticises protesting athletes.
"If there is any fixed star in our constitutional constellation, it is that no official, high or petty, can prescribe what shall be orthodox in politics, nationalism, religion, or other matters of opinion or force citizens to confess by word or act their faith therein."
- Supreme Court Justice Robert Jackson, West Virginia State Board of Education v. Barnette. 1943
@Stonekettle @pzmyers As an occasionally loyal follower of both Jim and Dr. Myers, it's a pleasure to be here!
