The turkey vulture has spun with itโ€™s back to the sun and itโ€™s expansive wings outstretched as if it is a solar panel absorbing the sunโ€™s rays.

A four panel comic. In panel 1, a little grey songbird is perched on a branch overlooking a golden field with some dogwoods and bare trees. It says "Hi! Just a small songbird over here." In panel 2, we zoom in on the songbird who says "A harmless songbird. Nothing to worry about." In panel 3, more zoom, and the bird says "No murder is about to happen. Not even a little murder!" In panel 4 we have fully zoomed in on the Northern Shrike. Its eye glows a little red and it says "Well, maybe a little".

when youโ€™re in grade school you learn about the war of 1812 as a kind of curiosity but iโ€™ve read a few books this year where it has come up and to me, it seems like the first episode of โ€œamerica fucks around and finds out with an ill-conceived warโ€

Climate Change:

It's real.

It's us.

It's serious - and already dangerous.

But there are solutions.

The science is clear: the faster we cut emissions, the less suffering we will cause, and the better off we'll all be.

About alt text for new Blueskyers:

In settings turn on "require alt text" under "accessibility." Then, whenever you post a photo, just add a short description of the photo. For people with low vision or who are blind, alt text is read by their screen reader, so they know what the image is. ๐Ÿคฉ
