I am sorry
but it is too late
to heed the warnings
of those who decades ago
said we were on track
to wind up
right where we are now,
but if you would honor
Cassandra’s kinfolk
you can start
by heeding the warnings
of those trying to alert you
to where we are heading next.

No need to debunk this.
The word ‘bunk’ is a shortened form of ‘bunkum,’ which came from Buncombe County, North Carolina (where Asheville is located).
In 1820, the congressman from Buncombe County gave an intentionally boring and long-winded speech to Congress...

Onaqui stallion Pyrite suffered in his last days. We are heartbroken that such a vibrant life was cut short so violently. If you have information about the killing, which took place during the week of Nov. 3rd in Utah, please contact the BLM tip line at (800) 722-3998.
Okay, my loves. Like Charlotte’s children I have spun my one tremulous parachute. I do not know if it will last but you know where it landed & it has the same face if you want to find me. I will still check back here from ⏱️ to ⏳. Thank you for all you have shared. I love you.

Almost 4,000 Aboriginal men and boys were incarcerated on Rottnest Island between 1838 and 1931.
About 250 Aboriginal delegates gathered this week to pay tribute to those who died in custody on the island. abc.net.au/news/2024-11-10/w…

What's your favorite bat fact?
I'll go first--
Hildegarde’s tomb bat males have a gland on their chest that produces an oily secretion for scent-marking. It leaves a dark stain on their fur, giving the impression of a beard, as shown here 🧔🏽

That's why, on December 1st, we’re bringing a bit of holiday magic to our station on the Strand with a Christmas party! 🎉
We’ll be providing food, treats, and small gifts to lift the spirits of our clients and their beloved dogs.
To make this celebration as warm and festive as possible, we’re aiming to raise £700. Every donation will help bring a smile to those who need it most.
