Weird, beautiful & unusual<p>Yellow-footed tortoise (Chelonoidis denticulatus) also known as Brazilian Giant Tortoise is found in the Amazon Basin of South America. They have distinctive yellow-orange scales on their front legs. Males use head movements to distinguish themselves from females during mating. They are the 6th largest tortoise species on Earth. Unlike most tortoises who are herbivores, yellow-footed tortoise is omnivore. <br>Picture: Casey Klebba, Wikipedia <br><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/weird" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>weird</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/strange" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>strange</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/reptiles" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>reptiles</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/animals" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>animals</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nature</span></a></p>

astroPug<p>CNN amuses and confuses me.</p><p>They’re having a misinformation report coming out on Sunday that covers January 6th and what they call a “Luigi Mangione fan club”</p><p>Based on the interview with the reporter, he has made a few questionable assumptions:</p><p>1. Luigi support comes from the left exclusively<br>2. The sympathy for Luigi is equal to support for January 6 insurrection, and hypocritical. </p><p>I don’t think those are correct assumptions, frankly. </p><p>We have predicted for some time that if we don’t stop health insurance from bankrupting Americans when they’re most vulnerable, we will see vigilantism. </p><p>I think the desperation of the sick and poor supersedes the delusion of people who think our system of voting is bullshit just because they lost.</p><p>I cannot agree with the implied equal sign that reporter put between these two groups.</p><p> I think they’ve been told to do journalism in a certain way that is almost more abstractly mathematical than fact based. Kind of more “let’s cut that baby in half, cuz that’s fair.”</p><p> According to that school of journalism, It’s always balanced, it’s always half, and if it isn’t, then we shall make it so. </p><p>What a world. </p><p><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/CNN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CNN</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Strange" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Strange</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/HealthInsurance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HealthInsurance</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/UsPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UsPol</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Journalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Journalism</span></a></p>

Weird, beautiful & unusual<p>Bronze-winged Jacana (Metopidius indicus) is a wader, found across South and Southeast Asia. Like other jacanas it forages on lilies and other floating aquatic vegetation. They are solitary, male jacanas care for their young by themselves, while females mate with multiple partners. Calls are a wheezy piping sound. Males maintain territories, with one male in the harem chosen to incubate the eggs and take care of the young. When threatened, young chicks may be carried to safety by the male under his wings. <br>pic: Ebird<br><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/strange" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>strange</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/beautiful" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>beautiful</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/birds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>birds</span></a></p>

Weird, beautiful & unusual<p>The grey crowned crane (Balearica regulorum), also known as the African crowned crane, golden crested crane, along with others is a bird in the crane family. It is found in nearly all of Africa, especially in eastern and southern Africa. They are the only crane species known to roost in trees, a behavior that sets them apart from other crane species. During the breeding season, they engage in a spectacular mating dance that involves jumping, bowing, and making low, booming calls while inflating their red gular sacs. Their chicks are precocial, meaning they can run and forage for food shortly after hatching. <br>Pic: Indianapolis Zoo <br><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/weird" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>weird</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/beautiful" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>beautiful</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/strange" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>strange</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/birds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>birds</span></a></p>
Weird, beautiful & unusual<p>Flabellinopsis iodinea, the Spanish shawl, is a species of aeolid nudibranch, a very colorful sea slug. Native to the west coast of North America and further south. It feeds on specific hydroids, acquiring its bright colors from carotenoid pigments in its prey. The orange color of the cerata may serve as both camouflage while feeding and a warning to predators that they are distasteful. While primarily a crawler, the Spanish shawl can also swim by flexing its body and pushing off from the substrate. They have both female and male reproductive organs but can't self-fertilize. The red rhinophores are sensory structures used for detecting the presence of possible mates and prey. <br>Pic: dpom/ Inaturalist<br><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/weird" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>weird</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/sea" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sea</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/animals" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>animals</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/strange" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>strange</span></a></p>
