Portland has really been active defensively. I think they're gonna be much better than lots of people expect. #NBA

In celebration of World Octopus Day, we wanted to revisit one of our favorite cephalopod sightings, the glass octopus β€” Vitreledonella richardi filmed during a month-long #PhoenixIslandsCoral expedition in 2021.

Yeah, another antisemitic, colonialist, authoritarian regime that threw people in jail for thought crimes was definitely the best outcome for Europe /s

There should be, but there isn't- the closest place is Plentea, on the corner of 3rd and Warriors Way :-)

Chasing the drug of pwning some loser because it's more important than building a future. I wish they'd all walk into the sea.

I hate this increased emphasis towards a winner/loser society, where everything needs to be a game someone can win something from, and everyone's trying to grift.

Rufus, having refused my attempts at a much needed pedicure. After this photo he went and kicked the crap out of an outdoor cushion

A shaft on morning sun was hitting this canna β€œKismet” just right yesterday. Bought the rhizome this year and this is the first bloom. (Also pictured: today under overcast skies). 🌱#Oakland

This little butterfly has a Bluetooth transmitter and as she travels, it pings people who have the Project Monarch app installed.

As far as I'm concerned, becoming more like the people who are taking away everyone's rights is 1) morally bankrupt and 2) illogical WRT to building a voting blok.

If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything.

Muting this thread now.

Like, you either believe that everyone has the same rights, or you don't. It's quite simple.

If a district is gerrymandered in republicans' favor than denying the humanity of trans people won't help, will it? And yes, I agree that all democrats should get on board with not sacrificing groups of people because republicans think they should.

The fake panic about "wokeness" is just that- a method to deny civil liberties to a ever widening group. There are more democrats than republicans in the country- you have to give them something to vote for, e.g. a moral center that recognizes the humanity of everyone, at the expense of no one.

I'm so sorry. I've always loved the story about Charlie mocking Eddie by zipping around him as a puppy. He was an excellent dog.

I've read that the CB pro can be inconsistent with pressure. Bambino is pretty tried and true and gives you a bit more options for control if/once you're not a beginner.
