If Donald Trump Jr. doesn’t have to go to jail for colluding with the Russians, can we at least send him back to Africa until he eats every last piece of the leopard and elephant he killed to get his rocks off?

Oh, just go with the penguins!
Marty’s photo of the day #2243: Most mornings I have no idea what I’m going to post until I start opening the photo files on my hard drive. Sometimes I find a photo that inspires me. Sometimes I find a photo that I had completely forgotten I even took. Sometimes I see a previously rejected […]
An octopus in hand . . .
Marty’s photo of the day #2242: In this photo Deb is holding one of the octopuses we spent time with in the Sea of Cortez. When underwater, octopuses look more substantial than they do above water, where their lack of bones becomes more evident.
If . . . (part 10)
If you like Trump’s idea of teaming up with Putin to form an “impenetrable Cyber Security unit,” you’ll love his idea for a new restaurant franchise: Donald, Donner, & Dahmer’s.
Stop calling Trump a bird brain!
Marty’s photo of the day #2241: “Now that Donald Trump has tweeted, ‘Putin & I discussed forming an impenetrable Cyber Security unit so that election hacking, & many other negative things, will be guarded,’ can we all now agree that calling the man a ‘bird brain’ is a horrible insult to creatures like myself? Now […]
Tidepools
Marty’s photo of the day #2240: I love tide pools and sometimes spend hours exploring them. This photo is from a tide pool along the Oregon coast.
What happened when Trump met Putin?
The media made a big deal about Donald Trump’s meeting with Vladimir Putin lasting for 2 hours and 16 minutes, despite being scheduled for only 35 minutes. We may never know what happened behind closed doors. That’s bad. Conversely, no one can prove me wrong, when I guess what happened: Trump: “My handlers say I […]
The Belén District of Iquitos, Peru,
Marty’s photo of the day #2239: I stood on the roof of a house, in the Belén District of Iquitos, Peru, to take this photo. This is the poor section of town, as it is on the Amazon River floodplain. Just to the left is the Amazon River.
Galah
Marty’s photo of the day #2238: I photographed this galah (also known as a rose-breasted cockatoo) in Queensland, Australia.
The Cult of Republicanism
A cult is a group of people that shuts out conflicting information and rejects facts in favor of an alternative reality. It’s time to call today’s Republican Party what it is: a cult. The Republican Party hasn’t always been a cult, but you can trace its conversion to one to the late 1980s and the […]

If you get more upset about cops being unfairly criticized for the actions of a few than you do about black men being unfairly shot by cops for the actions of a few, you really need to reboot your humanity.
Photo-shy impalas
Marty’s photo of the day #2236: I saw tons of impala in Zimbabwe, but never did get a good photo of them. It was as if they knew the limitations of my lens and then backed off 20 feet from there. This photo was about as good as it got.

If you think open carrying a gun on city streets makes you a big man, you really need to look down more often.

Why did the elephant cross the road?
Marty’s photo of the day #2235: Why did the elephant cross the road? (Photographed on the island of Borneo).
If . . . (part 6)
If Donald Trump thinks he can stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody and not lose any voters, did the cops tell him which black man to shoot?
If . . . (part 5)
If you enjoyed Donald Trump’s fake video of himself beating up a CNN reporter, imagine how much CNN is going to enjoy the real video of Trump perp-walking into Leavenworth Federal Penitentiary.
Leaving Iquitos
Marty’s photo of the day #2234: I took this photo as Deb and I departed Iquitos, Peru to commence a 70 mile-long journey down the Amazon River to a research station. Iquitos has a population of 300,000 people, and there are no roads in or out of the city. The only way to get to […]

If you believe Donald Trump is sane enough to be president of the United States, you must also believe Dr. Hannibal Lecter is sane enough to be your liver transplant surgeon.
