I adore my jays. I switched feeding strategies in my backyard to a trough-style feeder to make extra room for the little birds and prevent the Jays from bullying everyone else out.
One cool thing I've noticed is the Jays acting like a (very loud) lookout alarm for all the other species. The Jays scream, and everyone runs away and hides. I've seen it when the hawk comes poking around, and once when a cat found its way onto my deck.
Hell yeah, little Jay, get it!
They're such ugly little vultures under all that floof, I love it
Oh, we have lots of those! There are some drugs that we use to treat high blood pressure work by causing vasodilation.
What's really interesting about this new drug is:
"...iloprost is not only a vasodilator but also reduces oxidative stress, suggesting this dual mechanism of action could help explain its impressive potential as a frostbite treatment."
It not only dilates blood vessels, it also directly treats reperfusion injury, which is really neat.
So mean!!
I've never seen this in real life, but I have seen like half a dozen sparrows chasing around a hawk that was stalking one of their nests. It was interesting to see the cooperation. "Not today, Satan!"
I don't know where OP is, but here in Massachusetts, we have no sales tax on groceries:

Are you suggesting a privatized National Weather Service and toll bridges would be better? If so, I have a nice bear-ridden town in New Hampshire you might like to move to.
Regulations are exactly how you deal with negative externalities.The EPA makes corporations pay for reducing pollution and cleanup. Why do you think corporations target EPA so much? Because EPA costs them money. Never hear any corporations whining about that free taxpayer-funded geological data coming out of USGS
You know, I should buy a spare. Thanks for the idea
Literally why I'm still sitting here on my Pixel 5.
In the past, manufacturers seem to "innovate" every few years and reinvent the small form factor phone. I'm waiting, hoping we see that trend breaking again soon.
I like clean water, good weather forecasts, and I want to fix the bridges.
See, I read that scene as being equivocal because I'm not familiar with the comics, so I (still) don't know what the darkhold is beyond "evil macguffin." The scene opens with her so tranquil, appearing to make peace with herself and searching for her lost children. I thought they were leaving the door open that she might have a chance of accomplishing that.
So it would've been nice to have like 5 minutes in MoM to just show what happened between that and fully evil demon Wanda. I dunno, just felt shortchanged to me
Creepy freakazoid under cute floofy camouflage? Yep, that checks out
