Wishing everyone peaceful and happy holidays! Thank you so much for following along for what has been an incredible year (I'll reflect more on 2024 in another post). For now, here are 4 new winter images from Scotland's Ancient Caledonian Forest. Enjoy 😀

A little science with your Monday evening repast?

Ghost leaves!

Post oak (Quercus stellata) dead leaves were lying on the concrete driveway. It rained, then we had a couple of days of heavy fog. The rain & fog leached the quercitannic acid out of the leaves, bleaching the concrete under them. #science

18 pale leaf patterns on dark gray stained concrete.

Kim Kyung-Hoon took this photo of a press conference by the CEOs of Nissan, Honda and Mitsubishi, and accidentally created the perfect album cover.
Three Japanese men in business suits standing against a stark white background. They each have a distinctive pose: the one on the left is walking with hands by his side, the one in the middle is turned to the one on the left and is pointing at him with a single outstretched hand, and the one on the right is turned away from them both, gesturing at something out of shot with both hands.

So while I was out gathering the Christmas dinner, my husband messed around with some leftover gingerbread dough.
Photo of various cat shaped gingerbread cookies on a piece of baking parchment. They have been decorated with white icing in random patterns. Three with the initials of our past cats. One has been decorated to look like a cat x-Ray, the cat having eaten a fish…of course it has.

‘Tis the season to remember that all of Santa’s reindeer are female.

You see, males drop their antlers after the Autumn mating season, so since the world’s most celebrated reindeer are always depicted with spectacular antlers, we must assume that Ol’ Saint Nick’s entire intrepid team - including Rudolph - are female. #science #Christmas

Latest comic: How to get in the holiday spirit

I don't actually recommend slipping into unconsciousness for the next twelve years! Personally, I'm reading and trying to get around to that pie.

MAN LOOKING AT NEW YEARS EVE PARTIERS CELEBRATING 2025 - ARE THEY ACTUALLY EXCITED OR JUST COVERING UP THEIR PAIN WITH ALCOHOL? CURL UP WITH A CUP OF HOT COCOA AND A GOOD BOOK. WOMAN READING MAN'S SEARCH FOR MEANING By Viktor Frankl BAKE SOMETHING ELABORATE AND INDULGE YOUR INNER TRADWIFE. WOMAN BAKING PIE - I USED TO DO THIS FOR FUN, BUT NOW I'M FULFILLING MY SACRED WOMANLY DUTIES, I GUESS? DRINK A BUNCH OF EGGNOG AND TAKE A NICE NAP UNTIL 2036.

I love this quote by Frankl. “Freedom, however, is not the last word. Freedom is only part of the story and half of the truth. Freedom is but the negative aspect of the whole phenomenon whose positive aspect is responsibleness. In fact, freedom is in danger of degenerating into mere arbitrariness unless it is lived in terms of responsibleness. That is why I recommend that the Statue of Liberty on the East Coast be supplemented by a Statue of Responsibility on the West Coast.”

Spotify, shit as it is, is just one of many streaming music providers. There are no switching costs, and you can choose between a ton of providers. That's why Spotify doesn't need to be regulated under the DMA.

I swear to god people are allergic to basic facts and reality these days.

Streaming music market share pure chart. Spotify only has 37% among tons of other large and small providers.

@hiker This is very frustrating. Tidal is not on the chart. Therefore Tidal is under "Other". To be grouped under "Other", something must have less market share than the smallest item on the chart, which is Yandex.
