Being a millennial means I got raised by parents, teachers, and Sesame Street telling me to be kind, share, don't fight, money doesn't buy happiness, and don't litter because it's bad for the planet and now as an adult when I advocate for that shit I get called a woke leftist fag

For attention, like all bisexuals (& aces), obviously.

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖

Saw my first Woodcocks! Adult & 3 babies, crossing road in Lebanon Hills Regional Park. Bestie drove into center of road so no one coming in around the curve would smash into them. They decided against crossing & I hope they stay safe. It was SO COOL. I love their little walk.

I'd probably get taken out early bc I was trying to save an animal. Like Ripley with Jonesy only I'm not the ripped badass protag, just a soft-hearted dumbass.

Oh, I feel that ❤️ I lost 2 friends this week (my foster hen, Brownie, & my 19 yo cat, Maizie) & spent 3 hrs in the woods yesterday; did some Merlin app bird song recordings & foraged food. Came back feeling like a person again.

It's usually only icy if it melted a bit & refroze. Typically, when fresh & kept well frozen, it's super smooth, almost custardy, & not icy at all. The Oatly Salted Caramel & Van Leeuwen Sicilian Pistachio are my fave commercial vegan ice creams. CoolHaus is also excellent!

Me too! She's endured so much & I want her to pull through. I have so many plans for fun adventures & a nice life for her.

My little baby Brooky will be heading to the rescue on Tuesday. I've had him as my foster for 6 months & I honestly keep getting weepy about him leaving #chickens
Avatar
The only 3 consolations are: I'll see him on my 3 work shifts/wk, he'll be so happy with outdoor time during the day, & I'm bringing home my new foster, Brownie, the same day I lose him. She's a disabled Bantam hen & I'm gonna spoil her so much.

Brownie lost both legs to extensive frostbite before her rescuer saved her. She's very thin & has pretty serious infections in her stumps, but she's such a fighter. She's eating well & getting vet care to fix her up. #chickens

Thank you! It turned out pretty well & I learned things to do differently next time, & that's always good.
