Listening to this podcast about First Amendment Auditors, I wonder if there were Marxist-Leninism Auditors harassing coalface public servants in the pre-collapse or post-collapse USSR. This behaviour seems like the US equivalent.

"Because to me the Starbucks logo says toilet as much as it says coffee."

Their stores do have a consistent background smell of baby vomit for some reason, but the coffee itself isn't bad enough that I'd associate it with toilet.

“The kiwi, a… flightless bird from New Zealand, is disappearing, largely because of invasive species brought to the country’s islands by humans. So New Zealand has set a goal of exterminating rats, possums and other invasive animals that threaten the country’s biodiversity…”

"Beep, beep" is #onomatopoeia representing a noise, generally of a pair of identical tones (#beeps) following one after the other, often generated by a #machine or device such as a #carHorn. It is commonly associated with the #RoadRunner (commonly interpreted as "meep meep") in #LooneyTunes cartoons featuring the speedy-yet-#flightlessBird and his constant pursuer, #WileECoyote. #BeepBeep is the name of a 1952 #WarnerBros cartoon in the #MerrieMelodies series.

A weka and her curious chick forage side by side at Lake Mahinapua - West Coast, NZ

These flightless birds are full of personality—and part of what makes New Zealand’s native wildlife so special.

A weka and her chick walk closely side by side across damp green grass. The adult weka has brown, speckled plumage and a long beak, while the fluffy chick is slightly darker and still downy, mimicking its parent's movements.
