I finally found some late-summer dryad's saddle (Cerioporus squamosus) that looked good enough to harvest..maybe a bit dried out, but it seemed like bugs hadn't touched it. They were everywhere in the springtime, but I kept stumbling upon ones that were too far gone. However, I tried sauteeing one of the smaller lobes, and unfortunately, this one was also already too tough, so now I'm trying making mushroom stock in the pressure cooker. I gave it a good browning first and sent it off to the races. #mushroom #mushtodon #fungi #nature #foraging

Ich denke das Hauptproblem liegt darin, dass viele Menschen frustriert sind, über Job, Wohngegend, neue Trends, Unverständnis eines gesellschaftlichen Wandels oder ähnlichem was um sie herum in ihrer Welt passiert.
Da sie Dinge nicht verstehen/ ergründen oder hinterfragen können/ wollen, suchen sie nach zu kurz gedachten einfachen Antworten hierfür.

Over the last week or so, I’ve been telling the story of how, in the space of a decade, the Bavarian car-maker Glas advanced from the almost toy-like little Goggomobil to the Maserati-like V8 models. I’ve just discovered that I’ve got another photo of the original Goggo, which shows off its design better than the pic I previously posted. Snapped at the Bremen Classic Motor Show in 2014. Another Goggo treat tomorrow.

When companies do lay-offs I think disabled employees should be the last to cut. My reasoning is the outsized impact job loss has on us as disabled people and our families. Now, I'm fine with termination for cause such as poor performance. I'm just talking about involuntary severence. Now i issue the challenge to kindly employ a little empathy before all those keyboards out there start smoking with all the judgment and vitriol. #accessibility #blind #disability

An appeals court has temporarily blocked a federal judge’s decision ordering Florida and federal officials to begin winding down operations at Alligator Alcatraz, the controversial immigration detention center in the Everglades that opened in July.
As I reported last month, in response to a lawsuit filed in June by environmental groups, US District Judge Kathleen Williams had ordered the dismantling of equipment at the detention camp, such as fencing, lighting, generators, and other infrastructure, as well as a pause on the transfer of detainees to the site. The groups had argued that the construction of the camp proceeded without an environmental review or opportunity for public comment, in violation of the National Environmental Policy Act. But the state of Florida argued that the facility was a state-run operation, and, therefore, federal environmental protection laws did not apply.
Hastily erected in late June on a remote airfield by Big Cypress National Preserve, Alligator Alcatraz has been fraught with reports of malfunctioning air conditioners, scarce food, and rampant mosquitoes. Detainees are held in large white tents, each containing multiple fenced areas with 32 beds and three toilets. State and federal officials running the center have previously stated that the camp would be for immigrants with criminal records, but as the Miami Heraldreported in July, many detainees have no prior arrests. In July, nearly 1,000 detainees were being held at Alligator Alcatraz. This week, The New York Times reported that between 120 to 125 detainees are currently at the center.
In her ruling, Williams had sided with the environmentalists. “The project was requested by the federal government; built with a promise of full federal funding; constructed in compliance with ICE standards; staffed by deputized ICE Task Force Officers acting under color of federal authority and at the direction and supervision of ICE officials,” she wrote, “and exists for the sole purpose of detaining and deporting those subject to federal immigration enforcement.” Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier promptly filed a notice indicating the state would appeal to the US Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit.
In a 2-3 decision on Thursday, the three-judge panel in Atlanta granted the defendants’ request to pause Williams’ ruling pending a future decision on the appeal. The judges found that the detention center did not violate NEPA because it was funded by the state and not the federal government. “Obtaining funding from the federal government for a state project requires completing a formal and technical application process,” the ruling states, which has not yet occurred. Alligator Alcatraz is predicted to cost $450 million a year, and the DeSantis administration has previously stated it would seek FEMA funds to cover those expenses.
“Alligator Alcatraz is in fact, like we always said, open for business.”
Florida officials celebrated the ruling on social media. “Alligator Alcatraz is in fact, like we always said, open for business,” Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said in a video posted to his X account. “We are going to continue leading the way when it comes to immigration enforcement.”
Meanwhile, Friends of the Everglades, one of the plaintiffs in the case, issued a statement saying that “the case is far from over.”
“While disappointing, we never expected ultimate success to be easy,” Eve Samples, executive director of Friends of the Everglades, said in the statement. “We’re hopeful the preliminary injunction will be affirmed when it’s reviewed on its merits during the appeal.” Talbert Cypress, chairman of the Miccosukee Tribe of Indians, which later joined the lawsuit as a plaintiffs due to the detention center’s close proximity to their communities in the Everglades, told the Miami Herald they were “disappointed in the majority’s decision to stay the injunction. We were prepared for this result and will continue to litigate this matter.”

A few days ago I described seeing thousands of European Starlings on and near a rail dock. Well, maybe there were only hundreds, not thousands, but they were very noisy so it felt like thousands. At the time, I didn’t pay much attention to the structure they were perched on, so today I went back to take a closer look and, to my dismay, all the birds had gone. There was one solitary crow cawing loudly, but otherwise the building was bird-free.
I decided to take some more pictures of the rail dock because it seems now to be disused. At least, it doesn’t look as though it has been used for some time; grass is growing on the wooden boards, and the metal towers need a coat of paint. I should add that I have no idea what this building is formally called, so I am calling it a rail dock with gantries. It may have once served the now-defunct coal industry, and it may still serve the lumber industry.
What I saw today contrasts quite considerably from the satellite image on Google Maps. There it shows a lot of lumber in floating booms waiting to be loaded on to freight cars, a couple of dozen trucks and trailers in the parking lot, and a similar number of cars parked nearby. None of those things was there today. Instead, the city has placed several (maybe thirty) lovely flower planter beds around the empty parking areas, and a city worker with water tanker truck was watering the plants as I passed by. The rail line connects to a railroad freight yard nearby where there are multiple train tracks and I wonder where they all go to. It did not look very busy when I passed by. There must be an opportunity here for tourism to nearby parks and to other cities on Vancouver Island, but currently it is not set up for passenger traffic.
Now I am wondering about the history and the fate of this structure. As its original purpose seems to be diminished or gone, perhaps it will be abandoned. I don’t know who is the owner or if the city has responsibility for it. If any reader can add insight into this, I will appreciate it.
Some things I know, some things I don’t know, and some things I just found out today. When I went for a walk today I headed south along the waterfront and quite soon saw something that captured my imagination. Someone had outlined an area of rough ground with a rectangle of feathers. It is beside a disused rail dock and there is very little foot traffic here.
I wondered who had done this and why. Perhaps an unhoused person likes to sleep here and was marking their territory. No matter the reason, it must have taken some time to create this.
Living in the gantries of the rail dock are thousands of noisy birds. I enjoyed watching them swooping down on to the beach and then taking turns to eat from the nearby blackberry bushes. My Merlin app tells me they are European Starlings.
I walked on from there over the Port Way viaduct to Esplanade where I saw a business that identified itself as a chandler, which is a title I am not familiar with so I determined that I would look it up when I got home. I thought it had something to do with candles but the shop’s signage seemed to be all about boats.
Then I passed this lovely billboard. I stopped to enjoy it when two people came out into the nearby garden and agreed with me it was very nice. They told me it was just a “placeholder” from the billboard company, but I said I didn’t care. It was still lovely.
As I headed towards the main road and the shopping centre, I came across four people who were clearly having trouble finding something on their phones’ GPS systems. One lady stopped me and asked if I knew where the chandlery was!
Well, “Yes I do! It is just around the corner,” I said as though I have known it my whole life, and I gave them directions. Serendipity is a wonderful thing.
And, according to Dictionary.com a chandler is:
a person who makes or sells candles and sometimes other items of tallow or wax, as soap.
a dealer or trader in supplies, provisions, etc., of a specialized type.a ship chandler.

✅ Haircut finally ✅ Tire replaced finally ❌ Hotel room for the week
I couldn't find our clothes in our overfilled storage unit in time and had to give up and buy a new set of work clothes, which took a bit of my budget for our hotel room. 🙄
I also tipped the stylist generously since it took so long to get rid of six months worth of hair, which took a little bit more of the budget.
I have moved an entire academic project funded by Open Research Area to Delta Chat @delta The project is called ClaimSov and is focused on analyzing discourses of "digital sovereignty" in EU, US, Russia and China.
We have started with the question which messenger to use for our project related communications. We wanted to play the game of "digital sovereignty" and I suggested Delta Chat. The team decided to give it a try. Now we are two months into the project, and all the 13 team members from three universities are sharing several group chats, actively using webxdc apps for planning our calls and seminars, editing texts, voting for various decisions, tracking things on our agenda and even gaming.
This is my first experience of using Delta Chat with my academic colleagues. I could only dream about convincing people, but that turned out so simple and I am glad we have done this!
