Last full day in Cape May, and the dolphins did not disappoint. Plus, we saw a few other species on the beach we did not expect.

More wildlife and beach photos from Cape May, New Jersey, including dolphins and oystercatchers.

Shown here is a foster tern, a shorebird that glides at high altitudes, then dives quickly into the water to catch fish.

Thank you @pbump ... If there was ever a time for a little media humility, this is it. This is unprecedented. Just report the facts -- real facts, not speculation. Do the job they taught you in journalism school.

Photo-shoot yesterday, a news conference with the President’s Council on Sports, Fitness and Nutrition. Second Gentleman Douglas Emhoff gave opening remarks.

Panel members focused on youth fitness and mental health. Short answer: it ain't good.

I’m emerging from my social media hiatus to share recent comments from Ken Burns. I’ve chatted with him a few times over the years, always to my benefit. He’s very worried about American democracy — I think with good reason.

Here’s a video excerpt from his speech at Brandeis:

A transcript of his speech:

Finally, a Washington Post column on his talk:

We updated our essay on revitalizing classified ads in local publications with a software specification in development called flohmarkt that offers an open-source backbone for want ads, as well as a mechanism for running classifieds from neighboring publications.

Thanks @killick @smallcircles for ideas and tip

@technewslit@journa.host avatar

Is there any or development underway for classified advertising?

I've proposed reviving as a revenue source for , particularly as online commerce becomes difficult for small business and riskier for customers. See the white paper on TechNewsLit.com: https://technewslit.com/explores/explores20240511.html

The Fediverse seems a good fit for as an open-source backbone and ability to federate into regional networks.

Ideas welcome.

About a month ago, I photo'd a pileated woodpecker for the first time, in Banneker Park a few miles from our home. Today, I saw one of those critters in our backyard. This is the male of the species, noted by the red stripe near the beak.
