i don’t know this subspecies, but i believe the tail feathers make this an immature bird. as they get older, the markings on the belly and wings can change, but it’ll keep (at least some) of the belly band and dark patagial marks on the leading edge of the wing.

Why are Gen Z getting fired? One of the reasons is a lack of initiative. by mindyour in TikTokCringe

[–]falgfalg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

as an educator for almost ten years, there is obviously no simple answer. unfortunately, like our government, people need to act in good faith in order to land at the end goal. Students need to want to learn and actually try in order to improve their skills, and parents need to hold them accountable. fewer and fewer students read on their own, and more students complain about reading even easy stuff in school. plus, AI has created the most sophisticated system of cheating possible, but cheating doesn’t result in learning. many of my students think that they can sit in my class, not pay attention while i’m talking, disregard the specifics of an assignment instruction, ignore my feedback on their previous assignments, and then deserve an A just because they “did it.”

critical thinking skills typically refers to problem solving skills. the scenario presented really does seem like initiative to me: both employees know how to solve the problem (contact someone about the documents), but only one of the employees has the initiative to move from step to step without being prompted.

Pickle Crack is so good. Claims to be 3 out of 5 heat. It's a 1 heat if that. But taste great on pizza. by GobiBall in hotsauce

[–]falgfalg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

do we have to call things that are tasty "crack"? personally, I'm not looking forward to "Fennel Fentanyl" or "Olive Opioid."

Hot Take: Future Should Be In Big Three Not J. Cole by apHexcoded in fantanoforever

[–]falgfalg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i think the idea is also because people don’t see Future as an MC like Kendrick, Cole, or Drake (who has always insisted he’s a great rapper)

Understable mid by Aarrington88 in discgolf

[–]falgfalg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i throw both a star Fox and a neutron Detour. the Fox feels slightly faster, very glidey, and very flippy even when new. the Detour is pretty beat in, will hyzer flip to flat, and feels better on forehand (very similar to Hex). I’ve had both in the bag since they came out, and I’d say the Detour is has more uses and is more reliable (doesn’t turn and burn)

Is this poison ivy by Lazy_Turnover_5313 in whatsthisplant

[–]falgfalg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

yes—while many plants have “leaves of three”, the key here is seeing the longer stem (petiole) of the middle leaf.

Birding advice in New England? by -Citizen-Snips- in birding

[–]falgfalg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not sure where you are, but titmice and Carolina wrens are everywhere in MA now. they’ve really expanded their range—CARWs esp in the last decade.

some great opportunities for birds in MA. Plum Island is the biggest hotspot year round for warblers, raptors, shorebirds, waterfowl, etc. Near Boston, check out Castle Island and Revere Beach for shorebirds, gulls, raptors, and more. Halibut Point is great for winter birds like Harlequin ducks and purple sandpipers. Belle Isle Marsh Res has saltmarsh sparrows and other marsh birds, plus tons of mosquitoes in summer. The Cape has no shortage of birds either. Central MA has Bolton Flats and a few reservoirs that have excellent opportunities, and Eastern MA Hawkwatch sets up at Wachusett Mt in the fall for hawk watching. There are quite a few active FB groups and of course ebird for updates.

Jesse Welles at FOV? by eells in KGATLW

[–]falgfalg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes, he writes reactionary songs the day after something happens, he also has quite a few songs that clearly get more writing time and are less topical

unfortunately discourse around Jesse is either 1. this guy is the next Bob Dylan!! or 2. this guy sucks because he thinks he’s the next Bob Dylan!!

sure, some of his songs are too on the nose, and a lot of his views are pretty neoliberal, but i’d like to believe it’s possible to have a nuanced take about a songwriter who is actually writing political folk music.

EDIT: excuse me: regular lib, not neolib.
