I'm ready to be hurt again!

Found this backpacking spot nestled in a crevice near the top of Bald Mountain in Colorado. I thought the built-in chimney that wraps up around the corner was especially impressive.

>Ayres and her co-authors documented this "stabilize-and-ram" behavior in a paper published Thursday.
 
"Seeing a large animal burst into fragments looks shocking," says study co-author Erick Higuera, a marine biologist at Conexiones Terramar.
 
But "it isn't 'crazy' or 'cruel,'" he says, but rather "highly specialized biology."
 
"We think this may help younger orcas feed more easily — or it could also just be for fun," Ayres says. "Orcas are known for playing with their food."

Edit: Jesus, sorry for not being chronically online and for just seeing this video for the first time today. Sorry someone pissed in all y'alls cornflakes this morning.

Glassdoor has been useless for a long while now IMO, but now that it’s part of Indeed any semblance of being a transparent source of feedback for workplace culture is gone.

The only thing worse than having a job is not having a job, and it’s damn near impossible to sus out all the red flags when you’re desperate to land any job that you can, even when you have 7 rounds of interviews to do it. Glassdoor used to be a great supplemental tool to gauge what kind of shitstorm you could be walking into. It keeps getting tougher out there. American work culture sucks.

It's a lot

We stumbled upon this bull moose about 2 miles up Miners Creek Road. He passed by within arm's reach of the window.

I paddled out to the exposed island off the east shore of Sentinel Island. I found an anchor just below the waterline. I pulled the chain and was able to drag a sunken buoy out of the water. I was ill equipped to transport it back in my kayak this trip, but I left it near a sandy landing spot next to a big boulder for the next one. I did take back a selection of busted boat propellers and other trash.

Mowing the grass with a spring shower backdrop

Two different perspectives from today's bike ride. There's an exposed stretch of road I've never seen before that extends into Lake Dillon. It's unsettling to see the lake this low.

I purchased a used 2002 Jeep Wrangler TJ. The previous owner included this contraption with the vehicle. I bought it from a dealer, and they had no idea what it was either.

I've tried to figure out how it would fit into the rear end. There are bolt holes that seem to line up, but I don't have the hardware for it.

I've also tried describing it to AI, but that was going nowhere.

Anyways, I'm hoping someone here might be able to help. Thanks in advance.
