Look to the eastern horizon at dusk on Jan. 2 to watch the "Wolf Moon" rise shortly before sunset local time. It will appear particularly large while close to the horizon thanks to a phenomenon called the "moon illusion", a visual effect that makes low-hanging moons seem oversized.

Per the article:

Tyson, the meatpacking giant that employs about 3,200 workers in the town, will leave all of them without jobs when the facility closes on Jan. 20.

Per Wikipedia:

As of the 2020 census, the population of Lexington, Nebraska was 10,348.

So about 30% of them are without jobs. That's a HUUUUUGE blow to their economy.

Per this article:

While expanding access to Asia, Brazil also made significant inroads into the U.S. market. In May alone, it shipped 175 million pounds of beef to the U.S., five times the volume of May 2024.

Urban birds' beak shape rapidly changed during COVID-19 lockdowns, suggesting human-driven transformations in c/science@lemmy.world
[–] RegularJoe@lemmy.world 46 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

They observed that birds that hatched during the pandemic, when the campuses became empty and there was less food waste to feed on, had beaks with higher bill length and slimmer structure, similar to the wildland birds. However, after the COVID-19 restrictions were lifted and people started trickling back to campus and food waste became ample. Birds born during this period reflected this shift, exhibiting shorter, thicker beaks typical of urban juncos.
