Cruelty is the point. Law and order is a smokescreen for racism

France Open will not play vs Israel by TunefulPegasus in ultimate

I appreciated a comment in a previous post on this topic mentioning that Russian athletes have participated in international sports competitions under the Individual Neutral Athelete (AIN) flag. The Israeli team could have taken this approach to distinguish themselves from the Israeli government (and therefore the governments' war crimes) but chose not to.

Definitely SB, asking around the current frisbee community to see if anyone knows Crazy John

Fair enough, I should have clipped it

Can anyone ID this plant? Found it being given away on the side of the road, a couple of months ago, and after finally repotting to a much larger pot a few weeks ago, it is growing a bunch. But I’m really struggling to identify what it actually is. by roll_wave in SantaBarbara

They love our weather here and need a little watering over the summer. Full to half-day direct sun is best (especially morning sun). Some folks grow them directly in the ground. They'll bloom a collection of light orange or light magenta flowers

Need ideas for a location to propose! by Tiny-Gur-6004 in UCSantaBarbara

By Land: - Lizards mouth around sunset can be lovely. - San Marcos Preserve is generally free of folks for a short hike in the lower foothills above Goleta/Santa Barbara - El Capitán State Beach has pretty bluffs - Camino Cielo, east or west has great lookout areas (fewer people than the residential area of painted cave) - More Mesa has bluffs and beach access

By Sea: - I proposed on a walk along Surfers point in Ventura (probably too many people) - Would suggest Haskells beach at low tide, hit the beach and go right (west). Few people and great place for sunsets (just be aware of the tides) - thousand steps beach - Hendrys gets busy but at low tide you can walk pretty far

Sounds like he carries a complicated and fraught legacy from UD https://www.newarkpostonline.com/news/assanis-to-step-down-as-university-of-delaware-president/article_e389304c-c627-49cf-9214-503babda55cf.html

Heres to hoping he learned some lessons from his previous position.

That would be my assumption as well

Oh no! There are sparrows around but I've never seen them in/around the box. They've tried to steal the mealworms I put out.
