The poor murdered-for-xrist tree is shit, but the unravelling revealed a sawhet owl, hiding and terrified in the branches. Thankfully it seemed to be fine, and they brought it to a rehab center, where it checked out OK. And they will release it back into the wild. So, there’s that.

And we wonder why they’re jerks to us….

They aren’t the jerks.
Speaking of unspeakable jerks, last evening I watched a zoom presentation on reconstructing past climate by using tree-ring data from ancient bristlecone pine trees. The fellow giving the talk mentioned that in 1964, a researcher—one Donald Rusk Currey—cut down what then had turned out to be the oldest known bristlecone pine. At least 4,862 years old at its death. A record oldness for a living-now-dead non-clonal organism. Prometheus.
It was a good thing the viewers’ faces were not visible, because that made me cry.

We used to buy cut trees and there was almost always a side that was less than perfect, so that side was turned to the corner and hidden from view.
This tree’s gonna need a lot of corners.

It’s from New York? I thought maybe California sent it. Although, I guess New York has it reasons, too.

This might be a good year to put up the national Festivus pole and have a national airing of grievances and feats of strength. Somehow Festivus seems more fitting for 2020. Perhaps for the near future, too, until we’ve secured our democracy from those fighting to make us a single-party pseudo-democratic minority-rule authoritarian regime.
Huzzah!

I’m sure Melanomia would be glad to teach the littul chillruns how to “pole-dance, for fun & profit.” And get some some exercise, besides, as well.
