    I don't think we knew that the California Condor existed when they made that decision

    I mean it doesn't look like he had any ill will towards the condors. It seems like he got into a bad situation, attempted to cover his ass unsuccessfully, and got fined.

    The condors were discovered in the late 1800s by both explorers/outdoorsmen and loggers coming up from San Francisco, San Diego, and El Pueblo de Nuestra Señora la Reina de los Ángeles del Río de Porciúncula, as well as loggers and explorers/outdoorsmen coming south from the ports of Portland, OR and Vancouver, WA/CA.

    Ahhh, I see.

    Bit of a shame, that. My smoke shop sells psilocybin gummies, chocolate, and candies. I think he might have done better micro dosing psilocybin, but I don't have much room to talk. I've only macrodosed on psilocybin, LSD, and 2CT-7. Apparently micro dosing can help with depression and anxiety. All I know as a person with ADD is that macrodosing hallucinogens help me to re-focus into what I need to be paying attention to when I'm lost, every decade or so.

    That we're better than 'Muricans.

    Admittedly, that's an incredibly low bar...

    Fair, but the kiwis have keas, so they beat us both

    At least our birds of prey are. Dunno about the people; they’re a bit dodge at times.

    Okay, but it's kinda unfair to compare literally anything to the country where every living thing will kill you if you look at it funny!

    They used to circle above my primary school. I wonder if they ever managed to snag one
