Someone a few years older than me in high school won it, a friend of a friend, from where I live also won a REALLY BIG one on the Euromillions lottery. If I ever win, the super car makers, the yacht builders, cocaine dealers and high class escorts will see increases in their bank balances🙏🏻.
Finally, a baby pigeon, is called a squab.
I'll simply take your word for the pigeon thing. Good to know, but why name something which doesn't exist? Obv kidding, but I can't actually think of a time I've seen any, and I've seen a ton of pigeons, seemingly spontaneously generated in cities. Rats with wings, I say!
The lottery thing is good to know, I've asked before at "parties" and such and never gotten anyone with any degrees of separation that were believable. I also find it odd there aren't more stories of all these overnight billionaires doing wild things with their newfound wealth. Not that I've gone looking, but seems they'd be common enough if these people actually existed!
If I won it there's a service the lottery providers use where you can remain completely anon. There'd be no pictures of my holding a cheque with many zero's on it, fuck that!
Privacy is important. More important than ever in that instance. If we are to learn from my examples, the odds of you getting shot or shooting someone else goes up at least tenfold after winning the lottery.
Living well, is living in secret, they say
Sure, you and many others. But some, like me if I won, surely would run around town slapping people with 10k bricks of cash for fun, no?
Maybe it’s that you don’t spend enough time in trees?
Same here with crows and doves though. I see them all day every day, in large numbers, but never seen a fledgling of either. Probably just cause they stay in the nest till they look normal.
It's pretty much this. They stay in their nests till they're fully fledged, they're still small and pretty shit at flying though, so they just fall to the ground and are eaten by rats, or those that can fly, get eaten by larger bird eating birds.
I figured as much. Sigh
Too reasonable! I prefer to keep the mystery alive
I've always dreamed of picking up a baby crow, and I've told basically everyone I know to call me if they ever see one but it's never happened 🥲
Crows stay in the nest until they are full sized, and they stay with their parents doing duties like taking care of their siblings until they "get married"
They usually move in pairs (because they are in love), so if you see a larger number of crows its either a family with teenagers or a group of unmarried youths (singleton friends)
(sorry to butt in, I saw crows mentioned and jumped)
It's cool, no need to apologise🙏🏻. It was YODL who started it with his pigeon chat. We are free to discuss all birds on this thread, apart from bald eagles. They're banned!
Be nice, they are already bald
We baldies gotta stick together
You can do a double act doing impressions of billiard balls or something
I don't mind them but nostr:nprofile1qqsd9pqnwyshrse7z975h5ynptq9ktz3kv8txqs7lr20zgelqtys52cpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsz9nhwden5te0dehhxarjv4kxjar9wvhx7un89uq3zamnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3wwa5kuef0yqwdjn and nostr:nprofile1qqsrh09t0c7jkpa92qnjqm27ryup8uq5q6yzm2ks2sfr3xjskea6jtspz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhszythwden5te0dehhxarj9ekxzmny9uq3zamnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3wwa5kuef0h9tj5t were teasing me with the bald eagle emoji earlier on. We have a friendly game of #Wordle on here. I'm from The UK and they're both American. They both won today's round and celebrated with their "National bird", which wasn't even a thing till Trumpet made it so, a few months ago🤷🏻♂️.
You guys got me into wordle too 😌 it's addictive 💁♀️
You need to join our club then🥳.
Do you type the squares one by one or is there a cheeky way of getting it to post directly? 🙄
We have a club?!
If so, it should have a name!
Our tri-wizard tournament has expanded somewhat!
"Friendly"
Why is the opposite of “friendly” not “enemyly”?
Unfunny answer, but friend is germanic English and enemy is Latin French in origin (in-amicus= in(not)- ami(friend) = enemy (not friend)
This is the level of intellectual probity required. I mean, it'll all go over YODL's head, he struggles with Marvel comics, but I understand🙏🏻.
Fermez-la, Monsieur, s'il te plaît 🎩🥂
Echter, je zou nooit financieel herstel vinden na het spelen van poker met hem.
That's because his speciality is mathematics, not lexicography.
Specialty is a bit much. More than passing interest, would be fair. I could dazzle dazzle you sometime with some pretty cool new things on the surreal numbers sometime. But I can't promise it'll interest you 😔
Ties back into philosophy if you can count religions like Kaballah, where everything that is can be explained with 0-9
I have to go to the farmers market, but wanna follow up on this later
Please do, there will be at least 3 dis-interested brains waiting to read your ramblings😜.
There is some very interesting reading, regarding zero.

My papa is from the UK, I'll side with you ☕
