Michael Perry (griffithpark@pixelfed.social)'s status on Friday, 02-May-2025 07:39:48 JST Michael Perry

The American Acclimatization Society was founded in 1871 to introduce European animals and plants into North America.

In 1890, they released one hundred European Starlings into New York’s Central Park, part of an insane plan to bring the “Birds of Shakespeare” to the New World.

Their scheme went horribly awry. Within a decade, tens of millions of invasive starlings aggressively competed for nesting cavities, causing the collapse of some native bird populations.

Nevertheless, Starlings are gorgeously iridescent, like this one, seen shimmering in Bette Davis Picnic Area.

1. The image depicts a group of women and children sitting closely together in what appears to be an outdoor public setting, likely at some sort of event or gathering. The photograph is black-and-white, suggesting it may have been taken during the early 20th century based on clothing styles and hairstyles. There are four prominent figures: two older women seated side by side with children resting on their laps; one woman holds a baby while another child sits in her lap looking up towards someone or something out of frame. The fourth figure is partially visible to the right, sitting beside an infant who clutches onto what seems like a toy. The background reveals that they are at some sort of event as there's text indicating "Adult" and possibly other details related to ticketing for entry; however, this specific context remains unclear due to partial visibility. The expressions on their faces range from neutral to slightly concerned or attentive but overall convey the atmosphere typical of communal gatherings. This photograph captures a moment in history likely pertaining to social interaction among members within an immigrant community during that era as suggested by caption mentioning 'Migrants camp'.

A coworker says the only way to get out of the tunnel traffic in Monterey during the summer is to bike.
I was once stuck in it: 1h (0.5 miles). Never again. Looking forward to all my bike rides there this summer. (Many people don’t live locally. They have to go to San Jose or Santa Cruz, and during rush hour it can be as long as my off-peak commute back to San Francisco). There’s only one tunnel in and out of New Monterey, where the Aquarium is

1. The image is a black and white photograph showing a group of people sitting on benches in an outdoor setting at night. There are both adults and children, with most wearing casual or work-related attire such as overalls, hats, jackets, and shoes typical for the era suggested by their styles. Some individuals appear to be engaged in conversation while others look off into space or directly towards the camera. The people have a range of expressions; some seem contemplative or attentive, while others exhibit more relaxed demeanors with smiles on their faces. The lighting is low, likely from artificial sources given its nighttime setting, which casts shadows and creates contrast among the individuals in the group. In the background, there's an open space leading to what appears to be a larger area where additional people are standing or seated under other light sources not visible within this frame. A wooden post stands out prominently on one side of the image, likely part of a structure such as a fence or barrier that surrounds them. The overall atmosphere suggests a communal gathering at an event like Halloween mentioned in the provided context. The photograph is dated "13-4/25," which may refer to April 1948 (as inferred from the format typically used for photos and documents during this time). This specific image captures a moment of social interaction among individuals who might be part of a migratory or community gr [...]

1. The image is a black and white photograph depicting a group of children gathered around stacks of sandwiches at what appears to be a refreshments table during an event. The setting suggests it could be a Halloween party, as indicated by the context provided in the alt text. In the foreground, several young boys are seen reaching for or holding cups filled with a liquid substance—possibly punch—and there is also a boy examining something closely using what looks like magnifying glasses held up to his eyes. The sandwiches on offer vary from plain slices of bread topped with different fillings, and some children have their hands extended towards the stacks. Behind them stands an adult figure wearing a white shirt adorned with badges or pins—a symbol commonly associated with supervisory roles in such settings—and appears to be overseeing the activity at the refreshments table. Other adults can also be seen in the background along with more children mingling and engaging in various activities related to the event. The overall atmosphere captured by this photograph seems lively, casual, and indicative of a community gathering or celebration where food is being served as part of the festivities.

1. The image is a black and white photograph depicting an individual carrying a tray with breakfast items. The person appears to be in the middle of serving or selling food on what seems like a street, given the context clues such as newspaper vending stands visible behind him. He wears a hat, coat, trousers, and dress shoes, indicating semi-formal attire. His expression is neutral, possibly reflecting his job's demands amidst an urban environment during daytime hours. Behind him are other individuals who seem to be passersby or pedestrians engaged in various activities such as reading newspapers or walking by the newsstands. The presence of these elements indicates a bustling atmosphere that could suggest it was taken at a public place like San Francisco, California where multiple people gather and move about their daily routines. The photograph captures an everyday moment with social implications, perhaps reflecting on poverty and labor during its time period as suggested in the source link which is related to Salvation Army operations. The image conveys socio-economic issues such as homelessness or low income through representation of a person carrying breakfast food for himself possibly indicating his inability to afford more than just what's served at cheap eateries. Please note that this description is based on visual content and context clues from the source link provided in your query, which may not directly cor [...]

The obvious solution would be to stop allowing more cars.
If that ain't possible, just take a page from the European playbook and add fractional numbers at the end.
