🐦✨ Un petit joyau des forêts de montagne de Bornéo.

L’Eurylaime de Whitehead semble presque irréel avec son vert éclatant, ses touches sombres et sa silhouette trapue perchée dans la canopée.
Discret, rare à observer, il a ce talent très agaçant des beaux oiseaux : se faire désirer au moment précis où l’on voudrait une photo parfaite.

Experts flag trafficking after monkey endemic to Borneo is found in Thailand https://news.mongabay.com/short-article/2026/04/experts-flag-trafficking-after-monkey-endemic-to-borneo-is-found-in-thailand/

i keep seeing #lithium recommended, and then subsequently unrecommended — as hype trains go, as a valuable #nutrition supplement for all kinds of things. one of those of benefits that interests to me in particular is as a supposed aid for #depression 🤷

#Bario salt is one of those things that gets brought up a lot for its lithium content… and perhaps other trace minerals when really looking at this[1], it’s just salt.

that said, in spite of its other boring composition it does have a very unique “metallic” flavour. it cooks well with sours foods and it’s main purpose in my kitchen.

what is less boring however is that we have no idea where it comes from[1] since it’s “harvested” from the #Borneo highlands. salt deposits usually don’t last too well in our insane tropical rainy climate :D

and hey, the packaging is hella cool.

Kinabalu! ⛰️ 'Warm-Up' Act for Nepal 🧗‍♀️ (and a marriage test)

Forget romantic getaways; our idea of couple's therapy involves gasping for air above 4,000 meters on the summit of Mount Kinabalu, all to see if our marriage can survive a few days of shared suffering.
