A quotation from Elizabeth Cady Stanton

I have no sympathy with the old idea that children owe such immense gratitude to their parents that they can never fulfill their obligations to them. I think the obligation is all on the other side.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815-1902) American social activist, abolitionist, woman's suffragist
Journal (1880-11-12)

@EZLorenzImagery Beautiful #footage of an #Anna's #hummingbird #Calypte #anna #mother feeding her #young. It is well visible that she uses her position at the edge of her nest also to #warm her #offspring. Due to their relation between body mass and body surface, there is not much #warmth #energy persisting, when these birds don't move. Thus C. Anna needs to move a lot to produce warmth. And it can move very fast: Relative to their #bodysize, it is considered one of the fastest vertebrates.
A new study by #unibern shows: The nutritional conditions of a #nematode mother influence the growth of her #offspring. If she receives less food, she equips her offspring with fewer #ribosomes, causing them to grow more slowly at first. https://mediarelations.unibe.ch/media_releases/2026/media_releases_2026/growth_nematodes/index_eng.html

You Can't Make This Stuff Up ...
The Offspring Vs Toto - mashup by Hardgrüv

What do you call a feeling that's like nostalgia but for a time you don't miss, and in fact hated?

I love the music of my youth, The #Offspring and #SkunkAnanzi and #GreenDay and #TheVerve and... You get it.

Which may sound odd from the guy who loves #powerwolf and #brothersofmetal.

Well it's because I'm happy. But I was miserable when that music was current. I was closeted, depressed and deeply unhappy. I was filled with impotent rage. That music let me express all that in healthy ways. It was an outlet that undoubtedly saved my life several times.

I dont have nostalgia for that time. I hated it. But I still love the music that helped me survive it.
