peach-faced lovebirds have established a feral colony in phoenix, arizona - the result of either escapees or released birds breeding and surviving for generations. lovebirds are native to africa, but have a fairly significant feral population size in arizona. they are frequently found nesting in cactuses. some of their roots from human breeding still show, as birds with color mutations only seen in captivity can be found in the flock.

“Once in a million years a lady like her rises…”
“Stevie Nicks is more than a rock icon: She’s the high priestess of her own religion, ruling a world of prancing gypsies, gold-dust princesses and white-winged doves… On Enchanted, she still has that soulful ache in her voice, and you can hear how faithfully Nicks has followed her vision.” — Rolling Stone
“The Enchanted Works of Stevie Nicks” was released on April 28th, 1998

When you grow up as a girl...
I think every Stevie Nicks fan should read this piece and stop attributing that quote to Stevie. It was beautifully written by @oneweekoneband.
I was never afraid of aging until I hit my mid-thirties and people started aggressively mistaking me for an early twentysomething like once a week.
My favorite thing that ever happened was the time I belonged to the CD-trading website La La, and another user sent me Fefe Dobson’s first album and in the little notes section of the packaging where you could leave your thoughts on the album for the next user, they wrote “A Canadian Avril Lavigne.”
Here is a simple statement of principle that doesn’t get repeated enough: if you possess billions of dollars, in a world where many people struggle because they do not have much money, you are an immoral person. The same is true if you possess hundreds of millions of dollars, or even millions of dollars. Being extremely wealthy is impossible to justify in a world containing deprivation.
Even though there is a lot of public discussion about inequality, there seems to be far less talk about just how patently shameful it is to be rich. After all, there are plenty of people on this earth who die—or who watch their loved ones die—because they cannot afford to pay for medical care. There are elderly people who become homeless because they cannot afford rent. There are children living on streets and in cars, there are mothers who can’t afford diapers for their babies. All of this is beyond dispute. And all of it could be ameliorated if people who had lots of money simply gave those other people their money. It’s therefore deeply shameful to be rich. It’s not a morally defensible thing to be.
have you written a book and if so where can someone read it?
What?
It’s amazing how many of Mary Kate’s outfits from 2003-2006 I remember.
