Happy birthday, Jen. That cake came out looking beautiful and I hope you enjoy it.

This is really just embarrassing and gross.

Screenshot of a graph showing groundwater recharge costs are anywhere from $90-$1100 per acre foot. Reservoir expansion not even new reservoirs are anywhere from $2700-$1700 per acre foot. And saltwater desalinization is anywhere from $1900 to over $3000 per acre foot.

This data is several years old, but here’s a cost comparison from Stanford.

Did you know that the bees that need saving are NOT honeybees?

Honeybees are the dairy cows of bees. People brought them over from Europe to make us honey.

The problem with honeybees, esp in resource-limited ecosystems (like hey! cities!) is that they compete with our native bees for food.

I very much look forward to using this one in my classroom as a teaching tool!

Congratulations Emily! It must have been great to teach them all about beavers and how essential they are to healthy environments!
And the to have it made into a movie! Amazing!!!

Look at her smile. ❤️

Like culture posts on this app simply don’t get the engagement and I think it’s because people feel it’s frivolous and actually it’s the thing we are fighting for, the freedom to make culture and cultural works

After a historic 5-day stretch of storms, the Tahoe basin has lost 2-3 feet of snow in the past week. Warm weather, with rain at times, melted away much of the snow. Snow depth in Tahoe City was nearly 4 feet on Feb. 20, but is just 9 inches today, Feb. 28. #CAwx

Good scissors are a thing of beauty and necessity.

I think this every time I see photos of bombings.

The idea of a legislative body representing the population having the ability to check the ultimate power of a country’s leader sounds really neat. Someone should write that down.

The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive

Iran Says 40 School Children Killed in Strikes Iran said that at least 40 elementary school children were killed as the result of an attack in Minab, in Iran’s southern province of Hormozgan, according to state broadcaster IRIB, which said 48 more...

Other figures say 40. Posting for clarity but whether it’s 85, 40, literally any number big or small, a dead child is a dead child. They didn’t do anything. We are not the good guys here.

85 girls who would’ve had their own lives and futures. 85 girls who had dreams of their own. 85 families who will never see their daughters alive again.

US-Israeli strike on girls' school kills at least 85 students, Iran's judiciary says At least 85 students have been killed in US-Israeli strikes that hit an Iranian girls' school in Hormozgan province, Iran's judiciary said on Saturday. Washington has not commented on the reported str...

We killed 85 schoolgirls. We are not the good guys.

free note to everyone: you can just say we shouldn’t be bombing Iran rather than pretending this would be fine if Trump explained himself better

I will never get used to the disdain our country holds for brown and Black children.

From Palestine to Iran to Sudan, we normalize the destruction of schools and hospitals and daycares. We reduce children to death tolls and their futures to rubble with no consequence or second thought.
