American Badger (Wild Safari North American Wildlife by Safari Ltd.)
The American badger (Taxidea taxus) is said to be North America’s only species of badger, but the truth is that badgers are a polyphyletic group, united not by a single common ancestor but by appearance. In the case of the American badger, it is the only member of its sub-family, Taxidiinae. According to a 2018 paper, the American badger is the most basal species of Mustelidae, splitting off […]

Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park 2023
Almost exactly a year ago my wife and I took our second trip to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. We’d last visited 12 years earlier in October, and so had missed the opportunity to see puffins. I’d meant to make a series travelogue posts about my trip, but I got busy with programming, work, video games, and playing D&D with the kids so I fell uncharacteristically behind on tagging and editing my photos. I finally got around to editing the photos from the trip. First up, a selection of photos taken by my wife.
Now some of the better photos I took during the puffin and light house boat tour. Even with the image stabilization built into my 120-400mm lens, it was very hard to compensate for the rocking of the boat. Additionally, we didn’t get that close the puffins and they are pretty tiny birds. So those aren’t my best photo shots and the cropping has exaggerated any “noise” in the digital image. The same goes for the photos of the seals. I think my American Bald Eagle shots came out pretty good, even though they were often the furthest away.
One of the highlights of the trip for most of us was the hike around Jordan Pond. We had a lot of fun with the relatively mild hike (other than a rock scramble or two) and a great lunch afterwards at the Jordan Pond House.
I also had a fun hike with just the wife in a bit of a drizzle. Mostly because, without trying, we ended up capturing images of a bird that looks related to the Cardinals we have here in Maryland.
Finally, a few photos from a short hike we did on our last day in Bar Harbor.

#History #ForeignPolicy #AmericanAidReview: “Les Origines du plan Marshall”
https://www.german-foreign-policy.com/en/news/detail/9378
#AnnieLacroixRiz analyses the “Myth of the #US American Aid” to #Europe following the #SecondWorldWar and the path to the imposition of #US hegemony.
[...]
#LacroixRiz’s analysis, as meticulous as always, sheds light on the years 1941 to 1946 – the period, in which the #UnitedStates imposed its “rise to global hegemony.” The French General #PaulAndréDoyen, head of the #French delegation to the #GermanArmisticeCommission since September 6, 1940, had already predicted the #GermanReich’s demise back in July 1941: the #UnitedStates, the actual victor of the #FirstWorldWar, would emerge from the Second even more powerful, while the European countries, which once could still have been its rival, would be seriously weakened. The world “would have to bow to the will of the #UnitedStates over the coming decades.” Doyen was right.
During the period mentioned above, the #UnitedStates laid the necessary groundwork – not only militarily, but above all economically. Important milestones, such as the #LandLeaseAct, which regulated – beginning in 1941 – the delivery of strategic combat material to allied countries, officially on a leasing basis; then the results of #BrettonWoods in July 1944, which ensured the dominance of the US-dollar; and ultimately, particularly for #France, the #BlumByrnesAgreements of May 1946, compelling access for #US cultural products, particularly films, to the French cultural market. All these milestones decisively contributed to paving the way for #US-American products and capital into #Europe. The #MarshallPlan was merely the final cherry on the cake. It further increased sales of #US products to #WestEuropean countries, binding them even more closely to the #USA, ultimately securing #US hegemony.

CW: Long thread/21
But that's small potatoes. *Millions* are being spent, *right now*, lobbying against CCCA - $5m from the #AmericanBankersAssociation, $2m from #CreditUnionNationalAssociation, another $400k from Mastercard.
For these rentiers, corrupting our government with millions is a *stellar* bargain if it lets them continue to collect rent *every time we spend money*.
