So what I’m hearing is that this moron didn’t learn his lesson about fucking around with vehicles after he got hurt just a few months ago.

This is very flimsy so take it for what it’s worth, but I have a really bad feeling that bird flu is about to become a much bigger deal, at least in the bird population if it doesn’t make the jump to humans

It’s winter here, I live in an area where most of the birds migrate south for the winter. Some species don’t migrate, some individuals don’t, and some birds even migrate to here, so there’s usually some birds around here for the winter.

This year I’ve seen more.

And when I’m out walking my dog at night, they’re on the ground, not up in trees or in bushes where you’d expect to see birds, or even hiding out in the undergrowth of wooded areas they’re out in the open on the grass, sidewalk, middle of the road, etc. in the middle of the night.

I see one almost every night, sometimes a few of them. And I have a bad feeling that these birds are sick and too weak to do much besides flutter away to a different patch of grass when I get close.

I’ve been in this house for about 5 years, been taking my dog for walks almost every night since then, rain or shine, summer or winter. This isn’t something I’ve seen until this year. And I’ve seen it in a handful of places outside of my neighborhood as well.

It may be me being paranoid, it may be something other than bird flu, but it’s not exactly giving me the warm-fuzzies.

I’m kind of wondering if the plan here isn’t to goad trump into retaliating by blurting out where our own missiles are pointed at.

They threw some obvious ones out there like the Pentagon (duh of course they have missiles pointed there)

And then padded out the list with some defunct sites to make the list longer because someone like Trump is going to want to one-up them by listing at least that many of our targets. Russia probably doesn’t actually have missiles aimed at most of those places, but this way they don’t actually have to give up any of their actual targets.

And trump will probably take the bait to beef up missile defences around those defunct sites, wasting money, time, manpower, and resources that could be better used anywhere else.

It’s been quite a while since I used it but I remember kind of liking the smell.

There was a tiny undertone of some sort of funky rotten garlicky smell, but predominantly I thought it was more spicy and piney smelling

That’s a map of the magnetic “dip” pole not the geomagnetic pole. They are slightly different things.

I’m a bit out of my depth, so I’m not gonna try to explain the distinction because I don’t really understand it very well myself, it’s just a fun fact I picked up somewhere.

But AFAIK, the geomagnetic pole is still supposed to be somewhere around Canada/Greenland

Also, not for nothing, but those are two different map projections so with how things get distorted around the poles in the OPs map,it’s a little hard to directly compare them. Remember that with cylindrical projections the whole top edge of the map basically represents a single point (the geographic north Pole) so things are often a lot closer together than they may look on the map. Just from eyeballing the two maps as an amateur who uses maps more than the average person but doesn’t exactly study them, I wasn’t 100% confident that the dip pole wasn’t in one of those higher spots of the puffin’s range (it’s not, I confirmed on a couple other maps, but it’s closer than you might think just from casually looking at these two maps.)

I believe the geomagnetic pole falls somewhere in that region
