Your Cherokee words for today.
The top word is English followed by how it is written in the Cherokee language followed by how it is spelled in English then how to pronounce it phonetically.

For Day 4 of #25DaysOfFishmas we have an animal that I'm low-key obsessed with. This snazzily dressed little fella is Protanguilla palau, the Palauan primitive cave Eel. As you might expect, this mysterious creature was first discovered (as recently as 2012!) in coral caves east of the Palau.

Way to stand up to... *checks notes* 61-year-old recreational players. Good work, USTA. 🙃

Rudolph, the red-eared reindeer! 🦌

With ears so bright, the Redear Sunfish (Lepomis microlophus) guides us into Day 2 of #25DaysofFishmas! This member of the sunfish family found throughout the southeastern US is a warm-water loving ray of sun on a cold winter day ☀️

Just because there aren't any rules for casual, non gendered sports doesn't mean some campus Riley Gaines wannabe won't make an example of me. I don't even want to risk it, my campus is hella conservative

Post your favorite "Lord of the Rings" character. Wrong answers only.

Nah I'm GOOD I already got harassed for washing my hands in a bathroom I don't wanna become a policy

I emailed my counselor like a month ago for what 1 credit classes I could take and she suggested sports to me 💀

Thanks!

@aphrobeesiac.bsky.social Come back I just found your bluesky

Applying for summer positions in fisheries and wetland ecology for the first time.

I worked as a naturalist/arborist for 4 years and stopped when I started attending school (more part time work in horticulture)

I am very excited to put my hat back in the ring and really hope I find work in SE MI

This has happened several times before:
Aral Sea (a large inland lake)
Lake Amik, Turkey
Ulaan Lake, Mongolia
Lake Poopó, Bolivia
Lake Chad
Tulare Lake, California
etc

I genuinely think this (from: sootyempiric.blogspot.com/2025/08/woke...) is going to be lots of people's unironic take on these years. I do think Woke 2 will be a thing, and I don't think this was inevitable but rather the result of very bad strategic choices being made by the right and centrists.

Meet the carrier crab, an animal that brings its defence wherever it goes. Its back legs are specially adapted to hold anything it can wedge between itself and danger: a bit of dead coral, seaweed, a broken shell. Sometimes, though, that shield is alive – like this jellyfish! 🛡️🪼👇

I'd bring it in. The less stuff plugged in and could potentially get ripped up by wind or ice the better

LMAOOO why can't I have mewtwo's hips???

Fog of war is when a bomb makes fire that makes smoke which is kind of like fog in that it's kinda hard to see through it and kind of like war in that it's a war crime against innocent civilians

I'm always so fascinated by this but I've never seen it myself. Is this common for gar populations? Is it regional? I need to know more about their migaratory habits 😭

This is that 1500's b.c kind of ass kissing

The gods support our king for no flood has cometh!!

when Michael Phelps was dominating US swimming there was endless coverage of all his genetic advantages. His wingspan, the way his body processed lactic acid, on and on and on. Nobody, not one person, floated the idea of kicking him out of the sport for genetic advantages

Honestly, just go for it. A supervolcano would solve a lot of issues for me rn

PSA for the well-intentioned folks on here.

It's November 30, if you're in line to gale, stay in line!

it’s fun watching people see what trans folks have been warning of for years. the media has no capacity to inform about the politicization of health care
