I don't think I've seen this variety of succulent flowering before. It looks like an overturned Ferroseed or the plant version of the Omnidroid from The Incredibles.
covid-adjacent, trying to figure out current rules
I went out for a walk this afternoon and saw a lot more people than usual and a lot fewer of them wearing masks (until I got closer to the business-zoned streets), and with the recent change in CDC recommendations, I’ve been trying to find the current status of outdoor requirements in all the local cities, county, and state…and I’m not finding a clear answer.
Getting my second shot tomorrow, figure I’ll keep masking for the next 2 weeks anyway
Apparently if I go out walking to birdwatch or to get somewhere, I still need to keep my distance *and* wear a mask along the way, but if I go out walking to exercise, I only need to keep my distance. ???
Realized I’m stressing out over the vaccine appointment tomorrow because part of me is convinced Something Will Go Wrong before I can get to it.
And partly wondering if it’ll knock me out worse than the first dose did. (Serious fatigue for about 24 hours starting later that afternoon.)
Still, better and shorter than even a “mild” case of the actual virus, though!

@Cambridgeport90 @queenslight16 Android, yeah. I’m actually doing most of my uploads on my desktop these days, though I do visit it on my phone (though the website as a PWA). Actually being *able* to use Pixelfed on my desktop along with my phone is a plus over Instagram, too.

@Cambridgeport90 @queenslight16 Thanks! And yes, Pixelfed does support both captions and image descriptions, though the description field is a lot shorter.

Crows and Ravens
This crow started swooping toward a hawk almost as soon as it perched on top of an electrical transmission tower. It tried a bunch of times to scare it off, but the hawk ignored it.
Red-tailed Hawk
This hawk glided across the sky, then alighted on top of an electrical transmission tower. Almost immediately, a crow started trying to scare it off, swooping toward it repeatedly. The hawk remained unfazed and just stayed put while I walked around to the other side of the tower.
