Shit I hadn’t even considered that. Glad I know now

My mom still uses hers. It’s great.

This is how I dance. Is it bad or good?

Newsmax should have to admit their truth to their audience too

The judge had to Point out that the studies Hegseth used as evidence against transgender soldiers actually showed proof they they are good for the military

I don’t think he will. I think he’s lying to himself to avoid the feeling of shame and he needs that protection. He can’t let himself ever admit what he did.

Hey that’s how immunizations work!

Dude is just pump and dumping the whole fucking economy

That was so rad. I love the fleshy pad on the chest and the weird mouth placenta balloon

Pink Muhli grass? 🎶 I’m gonna keep on dancing at the pink muhli grass

Some of you may die, but that is a sacrifice I am willing to make

I’m ready!

For literature I find 100 years of Solitude to be without equal. An absolute joy to read.

For nonfiction I have learned so much from 1491. It was recommended to me by a friend though I have never heard of it elsewhere. The premise is that basically everything we think about Native Americans before Columbus arrived is wrong. I could go on but here is one tidbit: we tend to think of Native Americans as peoples without government. Now of course there are so many different groups of peoples all over the Americas and across so many eras it’s foolish to even think of them as being this way or that way because who and when are you referring to? But there were many types of government. In fact the Incas were total bureaucrats! Anyway I’m doing a poor job selling it i know but it’s a great read.

For self-help try How to Win Friends and Influence People. I know the title sounds like it’s a guide to manipulation but it’s really not. It’s 100 years old but still holds up so well. Times change, but people don’t, you know what I mean? People 100 years later still appreciate it when you remember their name and look them in the eye and make time to listen.

Well I have hope. It might be unlikely but that doesn’t make it impossible. And if it ever happens that one is officially captured or whatever I want you to remember me.

Sister you might want to sit down for this surprising info: Bigfoot isn’t real. The thylacine is. And extinct animals are rediscovered regularly. Like the Galapagos tortoise that was officially extinct for 113 years and the Voeltzkows Chameleon was extinct for 107. The University of Queensland considers it “highly probable” that the thylacine was still alive at least until the 90s based on video and photograph evidence, which again- Bigfoot isn’t real. The thylacine is. So it’s apples and oranges to try and make that comparison between them. Even the ivory billed woodpecker has just last year been likely photographed again. Like am I crazy here? Thylacine isn’t a cryptid. It just hasn’t been seen in a long time. Have you heard of the coelacanth? We only knew about it from fossil evidence until a fisherman found one living!

Heres a list of other animals once thought to be extinct

Good news! There have been sightings and paw prints found. She’s out there!

Woops. Not Apple. Warner music group

It’s not. Apple owns it

What’s KD, precious?
