Trump’s plan for a 25-mile wall in a remote area of Arizona would block a critical wildlife corridor on the state’s border with Mexico and imperil the survival of at least 16 threatened/endangered species, including jaguars. Local police note that illegal crossings are β€œpractically unheard-of.”

Solid ending to the week, if you can consider weeks ending on Saturday, which is actually how weeks work I think. I think God said that? πŸͺΆ

The White-tailed Eagle. πŸ¦…

The UK’s biggest bird of prey.

Once extinct here, now soaring back into our skies.

With our new film 'Return' about to launch, let’s celebrate these giants of the sky...

Born on this day in 1623, in Bruges, Pieter Janssens Elinga. Painter of clean, still rooms and sometimes still lifes. Here, three human players fixed amid intense geometry of walls, windows, floor, & light.

A screenshot of a text over a black background with the earth in the distance on the top left hand side.  The text is white and it says:
β€˜I wish more people cared about earth as much as they cared about who they believe created it.’

Myself and my mother, shortly after TACP graduation at Hurlburt Field Florida. 1995. I’m wearing BDUs and my TACP barrett. She is to my right, wearing a tan jacket, gray button up shirt, and black slacks. She is smiling and we have our arms around one another.

I never post personal content, but for any other trolls hoping to accuse me of stolen valor for disagreeing with their opinions, I’m leaving one of the few pictures I have of myself in my 20s after losing most of my possessions. This is myself and my mom after TACP graduation.

You don’t fucking deserve this, but here: 1995. Enjoy being a blocked piece of shit and have zero valor.

Mother fucker, that’s the point: what about my profile says I get my news from TikTok? You come in slinging assumptions and get butt-hurt when someone does the same. Keep enjoying those genocidal boots there tough guy.

Every war crime committed had been debunked? It must be amazing feel illuminated by garbage conservative offerings that just feed you lies 24/7 and you eat like the good little boot-licker you are. Im a grown ass man that served my country and I base my information on international consensus. Kid.

If credible international outlets are considered TikTok, then sure. I’ll keep watching outlets like DW and France 24 while you gobble down Fox News over there Chief.

Dude is a Mamdani hater and falsely accuses him of being a Hamas supporter. He comes across as an Islamophobe.

His posts support the supposition that he’s not MAGA, and not even Republican, but apparently, if you criticize Israel without blatantly condemning Hamas in the same breathβ€”you support Hamas. Regardless, it’s a really bizarre reaction to this meme IMO.

It’s grossly, and deeply ironic that this person insinuates that a meme about Christ disapproving of genocide is somehow equal to radical statements calling for Israeli genocide when Israel is carrying out actual genocide as I’m typing this reply from couch.

Hi John. I just wanted to drop by and say how much I appreciated your video on your faith. It really resonated with me as someone who has been struggling with my faith for so long. I found it brave, candid, and encouraging.

When I see images of people killed gathering food or starving kidsβ€”I should just tell Hamas;
when I see settlers murdering civiliansβ€”just tell Hamas; when I see Israelis destroying aid and assaulting truck driversβ€”just tell Hamas. Then the genocide ends? But it’s fine until then?

Why would this meme lead you to state the poster supports a terrorist organization? You literally state it as a matter of fact, when the meme isn’t even directed at Israel and their warcrimes, but at Christians who defend these war crimes with their nationalistic bastardization of the faith.
