@jredlund@social.linux.pizzaMorning Jams Continue
As near as I can tell, I did the first of these morning jams on January 27, 2025. If I search on "jam" in my project folder I get 230 tracks, of which I would say about 200 or so are morning jams. They started out as just guitar, then over time I starting adding a drum groove, then a bass part, then synth.

Soon Han, 80, was out for a morning walk on Friday when two Dogo Argentinos attacked her near the intersection of Vinton Street and Mesa Road in Baldy Mesa.
Sheriff’s deputies arrived after 11 a.m. and found Han unresponsive along the roadway. She had suffered major injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene
@PwnieFan@infosec.exchangeGood morning! Here is a bee waking up and stretching. This week I learned that this is the season you see a lot of bees sleeping on flowers. Many of them are male bees who are not welcome back in the hive. They live short lives where hopefully they get to mate before the end of the season. A shame they're reduced to only being breeders. This is actually a post about feminism.

@paulbusch@mstdn.caGood Morning #Canada
Conservationists who focus on restoration of wetlands are increasingly "Leaving It To Beaver." Beavers are considered the ultimate Keystone Species because they area they re-engineer offer benefits to many other species, and an entire ecosystem can collapse if a Beaver is removed. A Beaver dam doesn't just hold and conserve water. Beavers increase the population of frogs, fish, insects, birds, and small mammals and extend the range of larger mammals like moose, deer, and bears. The quantity and variety of vegetation are increased. Water is filtered and saturates the land, refilling artesian wells. It's unbelievable that we almost lost this amazing creature because of a hat fashion trend.

When I'm on the interwebs looking for material to post every morning, I occasionally come across an interesting bit of history that isn't taught in school. Today, courtesy of @…, we get the tale of two French aristocrats who are embezzling from the colony of Quebec that they were sworn to oversee and protect. The wife of one of the men is having an affair with the other, apparently with permission. After narrowly escaping death by British cannonball, the trio fled to France after Quebec City fell to Britain. There, they faced scandal and were blamed for the loss of France's colonies, facing prison and banishment. French aristocracy knew how to have a good time.

Capitalism certainly doesn't waste an opportunity, and as entrepreneurs were trying to make Beavers extinct, they made use of every part, including the Beaver's secretions. Castoreum is a yellowish exudate from the castor sacs of mature Beavers used in combination with urine to scent mark their territory. Butt for centuries Beaver Castor Oil was used to flavour food, make perfumes more interesting, and cure every ailment known to the human race. Rumors persist about its use in many products, but it's rarely used today. I will not make a tasteless, smelly Beaver joke this morning.... you're welcome.
