Dive into a tale of secret diplomacy, frontier survival, and the fierce battle for the Bitterroot Valley. It’s history you won’t want to skip!

"At the time, the attack was the deadliest mass shooting in US history and the most violent terrorist attack on US soil since 9/11. The attack deeply wounded Orlando’s LGBTQ+ community, as the majority of those killed were young gay and Hispanic men, and the case was investigated by the FBI as both terrorism and a hate crime."

And if it seems like a lot. IT IS! But we have to take it one step at a time. We have no other choice! We can support each other through it. And come out on top together. I believe that this age is becoming the best one yet. The most options EVER for vegan and sustainable living are available. (12/13)

We need to STOP funding the biggest industries. BIG TECH. BIG PHARMA. BIG OIL. and BIG MEAT AND DAIRY.

Go vegan! Buy USED computers ONLY. And call your local representative. Ask them to stop supporting Big Pharma and if you're going above and beyond follow a website or social media page with actionable petitions. Boycott! Opt for the electric option, ALWAYS. (11/13)

The SYSTEM is corrupt and needs a huge overhaul. We do this by working TOGETHER. BOYCOTTING these big companies! And literally just choosing where we spend our money so we can avoid literal Nazi trash like Elon Musk becoming a literal trillionaire. (10/13)

Sit down and watch TV, make babies, and buy more $7,000 strollers while you stuff their face with the processed sludge meant to break down their tiny little body only so the problem the system actually caused can be "fixed" by a doctor making $500,000-$1,000,000 a year. And of course by fixed that means plugging up the hole with a blue capsule that actually causes chronic health issues they can again fix later.. (The USA healthcare system patented "flow"). (9/13)
