@vfocus_photography w/ @amandatrivizas   These Parrots Have Accents Our British friends use the c-word like it’s a charming greeting. Little different here in the states, where dropping a c-bomb means war. These yellow-naped parrots are the same. Well, maybe not the exact same. We don’t know if they’re out there squawking obscenities that mean different things depending on the accent.  But they definitely have accents.   This Device Measures Your Metabolism in a Single Breath [Partner]  Struggling to reach your health goals?

And we were like informants, splitting worlds between our fellow delinquents and the suits who run the world. When you grow up, you realize two things. Age is not an indicator of knowing things. And the more someone postures like they know a lot of things, the more unreliable they are as a narrator.  Unraveling family secrets is complicated.   Behind the Scenes at the Hamptons Polo Club It’s like any summer tailgate. Except instead of burgers, brats, and beer outside a football stadium, it’s oysters, clams, and empanadas outside rolling green polo fields. Oh. And instead of the Blue Angels flying by, it’s a private jet about to land at Easthampton airport.  We think we’d like this kind of sporting event.
