It strikes me that a great many ills can be cured by walking through the shade of mighty trees on lanes filled with birdsong. I hope these precious places will always be there to provide quiet and calm in a loud world.

Bees can fly 12 miles without getting lost.
Bees can even recognize human faces and add & subtract!
Bees are essential for many food chains.
Ideally they live for about 6 weeks in summer and 20 weeks in winter.
In its short life span a bee produces about 1/12 teaspoon of honey!
Musk, Trump + his creepy administration are like a cancerous tumor in the American organism, whose destructive effect on the system becomes more pronounced the longer it is allowed to operate.
I still find it difficult to accept Trump + America being mentioned in the same breath.
Intimidations, threats + removals continue to spread: US media, politicians, government agencies, schools, lawyers, judges, SEC, IRS, Fed etc.
Swallow the MAGA shit or suffer the consequences. Shut up or be shut up and terminated.
No more independent control.
It's called fascism.
With the moronic and corrupt Trump and his creepy administration, one gets the feeling that evolution is moving backwards.
Nowhere in the Constitution does it say that the worst government representatives should be allowed to decide the fate of the country and the world.

Don Lemon: “If Barack Obama had sued his own government, settled with himself in secret, created a billion dollar fund with no congressional oversight to pay his political allies. What if he did that? They would’ve had him in chains before sundown. The National Guard would have been called in. Impeachment articles would have been filed. Can you imagine Fox News?”

Friends, I’ve been around politics for over 50 years. I’ve never seen anything as brazenly crooked and corrupt as what Trump and his cronies did today.
They are in for themselves. Trump turned America into "Mobster Inc." - with a little help from loyal family members, friends, politicians & oligarchs.
It's all about big bucks, crime, corruption & loyalty.

Trump + Musk are totally dependent on each other.
Trump needs Musk's election fraud and Musk wants minimal taxes, large government contracts + minimal government interference.
So you have to come to some kind of arrangement, even if you think the other person is a complete idiot.

🎙️ Neue Folge #KalkundWelk -"Zwei Sitztänzer drehen den Bunsenbrenner auf" – und ja: Deutschland bekommt tatsächlich mal wieder 12 Punkte! Vermutlich versehentlich, aber wir nehmen’s natürlich trotzdem. 🇩🇪✨
Ab ca.19 Uhr bei #ARDSounds

Diesmal im gepflegten Wahnsinn:
🇺🇸 Merz tritt erneut diplomatisch auf wie ein schlecht programmierter Anrufbeantworter und verbockt das deutsch-amerikanische Verhältnis.
📺 Die letzte Show von Stephen Colbert – dank TV-Kritiker Donald Trump offenbar endgültig abgewickelt.
🐋 Trauer um Timmy.
🏛️ Schwarz-Rot plant das große Reformpaket – oder zumindest etwas, das auf einer Pressekonferenz so genannt wird.
🔥 Und wir schauen ins neue Anti-Habeck-Heizungsgesetz, das klingt wie ein satirischer Arbeitstitel, leider aber wohl ernst gemeint ist.
Dazu erzählen wir außerdem endlich die komplette Handlung von Moby-Dick nach. Obwohl wir das Buch selbstverständlich nie gelesen haben. So wie sich das gehört. #Podcast #Teaser

Death Valley National Park is experiencing its first major superbloom in a decade as of March/April 2026, driven by record winter rainfall (1.7 – 2.5+ inches) that transformed the desert landscape with vibrant carpets of yellow, pink, and purple flowers.
