am watching on #PBS a #BBC documentary of the making of Sir David Attenborough’s LIFE ON EARTH. he just turned 100 and i just reckoned, I AM OLD ENOUGH to remember a time his older brother Richard was the more famous of the two.
for the babies: Sir Richard Attenborough was the old milliardaire of (the original) Jurassic Park.

@blogdiva And you'll get Sir Richard's full talent on display in classic Noir 'Brighton Rock', a brilliant film with a psycho protagonist that has little to envy the Tommy Udo of Richard Widmark in 'Kiss of Death'.

am loving seeing Sir David read from his yellowed #LifeOnEarth travel diary. it’s like his captain's log and he reads it as such.

so they were the first team to ever record a full pride of lions hunting?!?!? it’s not only because it happened over a few days, but it was because the lionesses were using their Land Rover as cover from the wildebeest they eventually attacked.
lionesses getting shit done with human tech.

@blogdiva
Kind of ironic that Sir David made a few programmes about dinosaurs while Sir Richard made a fictional film about them? -

the 1970s were so full of scientific hope in popular culture. we had Jaques Cousteau, David Attenborough, Carl Sagan, Diane Fosse, Jane Goddall. it feels like it was a loooong time ago.

My family always watched Mutual of Omaha's "Wild Kingdom" because we only had a CBS and an NBC channel.
My favorite animal was the kinkajou. Because it's fun to say.

today is #MothersDay. i remember when THING1 kicked me hard enough for me to reckon, OMG A HUMAN IS INSIDE ME.
to this day, i admit i became a mother because i see motherhood as my own “Mutual of Omaha, Wild Kingdom”. my babies were my portal to living in my own human zoo (shoutout to Desmond Morris).
yeah. am a dork.
the thing is, the more i learned to see us as apes, the more i understood how powerful empathy is, especially in motherhood.
gorillas made me a better mom.

I think I rode the momentum from Cosmos all the way into college.
I have trouble imagining what would be the equivalent inspiration to study the natural world now. -
