Not much of a look as I was carrying a baby instead of binoculars, but I just had what must have been a Peregrine Falcon flyby near the Round Rock water tower at dusk.

Aquarium Homies Thread
Whatever little shitty one it came with. It's got some filter media and the water filter itself, but probably not the highest quality.

Back again. My dear wife ended up getting my son a 3-gallon tank with a beta before I had the opportunity to fishless cycle. For the last month, it has looked like this... Ive been adding stability a couple times per week (which I did daily for the first week after setup), and have been doing about 35% water changes weekly. I keep an eye on feedings, so I don't think uneaten pellets is a huge problem. I'm guessing some sort of algae or bacterial bloom due to lack of doing the proper cycling. Any advice on clearing the water up?

Birding
I'm not great in that department, but #1 is always native plants, especially those that attract soft-bodied insects like caterpillars. A bird bath with moving water can be helpful and a big draw. As far as feeders, I imagine the Audubon web page would have some information. Wild Birds Unlimited is a great for feeders and food, as well as information. I think their website may also be helpful for tips on getting started.

That's what I will be referring to him as on these boards going forward. If he meets expectations, its Jesus Terry. If not, he will be Jesus, Terry....

It's fun to watch "alpha" shitheads get fucked up. Hopefully Paul is having his meals through a straw for the foreseeable future.

Christmas 2025
Just doing nuclear family today/tomorrow before meeting up with most of my family on Saturday. The oldest is now 3 1/2, so this is the first Christmas that he has really understood the concept, so tomorrow should be very exciting.

JD Vance Fucked 5 couches as a hillbilly, then went on to kill the pope
I wonder who would be more likely to deny Vance's kids jobs, those who support Ro Khanna or Nick Fuentes? We may never know. This administration is littered with people who embody the worst traits of humanity. Trump- Narcissistic Miller- Evil Vance- Power-hungry Bessent- Greedy Patel- Stupid Noem- Vain Rubio- Cowardly Bondi- Cunty Obviously there are more and plenty of overlap, but they are all so irredeemably awful.

Jeffrey Epstein needs his own thread
God, I hope so. Even if our country is unfucked, I can't imagine a world where these people actually realize their comeuppance.

Epstein and Maxwell
Dude, nobody gives a shit if Clinton goes down because the Epstein Files expose him. But if he is the only one deemed worthy of not being redacted? Even you can find a couple brain cells to rub together and realize that is bullshit.

I did another Mini-Big Day in Round Rock Wednesday, from about 8-3. Not the greatest timing weather-wise, but I was able to manage 75 species. Highlights included a Great Horned Owl roosting in the daylight at my neighborhood park, a quick glimpse of a Sora in the reeds at Old Settlers Park and a suprise pair of Barn Swallows hunting insects over the pond, quite rare in winter. Lowlights were the complete absence of uncommon wintering birds, as well as scarcity of "common" wintering birds. This is the 2nd year in a row these birds have been way down. I'm blaming climate change.

Surly Dad Thread
Our eldest did not have a great first encounter 2 years ago. He's chill with Santa now, but even today if he spots the HEB Buddy, he lets out a bloodcurdling scream of sheer terror. This is nearly as frightening to anyone who might be sharing the self-checkout line at the time.

Looks like I only forgot one scholarship player, outside of what the recent signing class has. Cunningham. Not a particularly inspiring group.- Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Helobious Is Getting Those Wrists Ready For Heavy Work
What other scholarshib LBs are on the roster currently, besides Smith? Barnes, the Georgia freshman... I'm sure there are others but can't think of them off the top of my head. Obviously a big portal need at this point.- Trump’s America
It is really depressing that people don't give a shit about foreign policy, outside of an unpopular war. For the amount of good so many of these programs do, we should be happy to send the relatively minimal amount of money their way. But since we can't be bothered to give a shit about our own citizens, I guess it shouldn't be surprising that brown people on the other side of the world garner no sympathy. Fucking disgusting. - Winter Weather 2025 - Arctic Blasts or Sweaty Ass?
