what what (European starling butt)
I've heard the Shakespeare's birds thing is overstated, but honestly it is *so* the kind of thing the Victorians/Edwardians would do

“Introduced” Dialogue Prompts
“You mean I have to remember another name?”
“Welcome to hell.”
“I’d probably leave while I still had the chance.”
“...how much did he pay you-”
“If you think I'm insane, just wait until you meet the rest of us.”
“Huh, maybe you aren't as bad as the last.” “That's . . . very reassuring.”

Scientific Name: Scabiosa atropurpurea, syn. Sixalix atropurpurea Common Name(s): Sweet scabious, pincushion flower, mourningbride Family: Caprifoliaceae (honeysuckle) Life Cycle: Annual, perennial Leaf Retention: Deciduous if perennial Habit: Forb USDA L48 Native Status: Introduced Location: Plano, Texas Season(s): Spring
On iNaturalist, there are 12 species listed under the genus Sixalix and another 50 or so under Scabiosa, but it’s not at all clear to me why they’ve been separated. Plants of the World Online (POWO), which iNaturalist uses as its taxon authority, regards Sixalix as a synonym for Scabiosa, and a search for Sixalix in the U.S. government’s Integrated Taxonomic Information System (ITIS) yields no results (i.e., it doesn’t even exist in ITIS). It seems to me that all the Sixalix species should be moved under Scabiosa, but what do I know.
The USDA PLANTS database shows this plant as a perennial, but from what I’ve been able to gather, that’s only under the most favorable growing conditions. Even then, it’s a short-lived perennial (perhaps 3 years or so), and it’s an annual otherwise.

hbomberguy’s latest video on plagiarism has made me completely rethink literature and writing. I have never once so much as considered intentionally plagiarizing anyone or anything, but I think there’s something more that has come out of this: the names of the people who created the works Somerton (and others) ripped off.
Plagiarism isn’t only bad because it is lazy and disrespectful, it’s bad because it buries the truth. If you can’t find a source, the conversation is over. Somerton’s sources are fairly easy to find by simply searching his plagiarized lines, but that isn’t true in most cases. Most of the time, the line from statement to source is a lot less clear.
Today, I was writing a report on English Ivy, which is an invasive species here in the US. I wanted to know when it was introduced and I at last found a source claiming it was introduced to the Americas “as early as 1727” on a .net website that seems quite reputable (it has multiple major universities credited in its home page), but there is no citation for where this date came from. I dug deeper and found a pamphlet created by a city government in Virginia that made the same claim, only to discover the first source linked in their bibliography. Another website (a botanical garden’s page) gave the same date with the same source hyperlinked. Of course, I have classes to attend and things to do and probably not enough time to follow the lines back to where this 1727 date came from, but if I had not just watched this video, I wouldn’t have given that date a second thought.
Of course, it doesn’t matter in the long run exactly what year hedera helix was introduced to the Americas, but it makes you wonder how many facts have been so vaguely attributed that it becomes completely impossible to figure out where they originated (and further, whether or not they’re true at all).
