Covid is not a bioweapon. It was not created by Jews or anyone else. It does not target certain races. Jews and Chinese were hit hard by Covid and are not more immune. RFK Jr. was recorded spreading such false and antisemitic tropes.
This cormorant let me know exactly what he thought of my presence at Grafton Lakes State Park today.

Here's a simple workaround to avoid Twitter's new rate limits:

Get the fuck off Twitter.

Just a small reminder... cuz that's it.

Well, Ediacaran girls are hip
I really dig their sessile forms
And the Cambrian girls took the world by storm
In those ancient seas so warm

The girls of the late Permian really know how to hold on tight
And the Devonian girls with those tails and fins
Filled the sea with scales alright

But, I wish they all could be Carboniferous (Girls)
I wish they all could be Carboniferous
I wish they all could be Carboniferous girls

In WW 2, millions of women, called "Rosies," supported the forces. Often overlooked are "Black Rosies," 600,000 Black women who joined various industries. Racism, sexism, & other obstacles hindered them. Despite these adversities, they made significant contributions to the war effort. Given the challenges, these remarkable women are some of the most significant figures of the 20th century. They have earned their place in history.

TODAY’S FROZEN MOMENT - 90 Years Ago Today - June 11th, 1933 - Anglo-Irish activist Charlotte Despard riles the crowd at an anti-Fascist rally in Trafalgar Square.
Fascinating character Charlotte was. A pacifist, socialist, novelist and famed suffragette, she led countless initiatives and protests on behalf of the poor, women’s equality, against war, and for several political causes.
She was frequently arrested, but was fearless and tireless, and her speeches, like this one here, riveted the crowds… Feisty girl…

Before being judgemental, who among us hasn't received free luxury travel on private planes and yachts and gifts from right-wing billionaires hoping to influence national Supreme Court decisions?

Every big old oak tree is like an entire forest in a single tree. Even in the middle of the Bronx, far from any parks I found 7 species of ants, one pseudo scorpion, two species of isopod, a squirrel's nest, several birds, five different kinds of spiders, three kinds of mushroom, lichens, moss and more... this in a 2mx2m dirt hole in the sidewalk where the great old tree has been growing for some 50 years or so.

All trees add diversity but oaks are the kings.
