Happy International Rabbit Day! Come with us to hand out extra treats and love to some of our rescue bunnies. ❤️🐇❤️

People keep phrasing it as "young men are lonely so they're turning to right wing grifters for belonging and comradery" when it's much more "right wing grifters are turning young men into atrocious human beings that no one wants to be around"

Ruby is the best! [Okay, Ruby is my ❤️ favorite]

The beavers have raised HALF the money they need— from small contributors🎉 Any amount helps. Just $5 would be fine. They can have their own Nature Retreat and Beaver Ecotourism property. www.paypal.me/HolleyMuraco gofund.me/291a17c4 youtu.be/aUiHneLQ4iQ?...

Wild about otters? 🦦 Then you otter meet Sandrine! As the stranding and rehabilitation manager at Monterey Bay Aquarium, she’s responsible for all the animals in our Sea Otter Program.

The Department of Defense is delaying cleanups of forever chemicals at nearly 140 military sites – in some cases, by more than a decade. Meanwhile, the PFAS industry has spent over $70 million lobbying the Trump administration in just the first half of 2025. Always follow the money.

He is so stupid and unsophisticated and detached from reality This man has so many kids and he cannot pronounce acetaminophen That tells you that he had zero role in raising any of them

Greater anglewing katydid! 🤩Microcentrum rhombifolium male, the guy who makes that tick-tick-ticking sound in the trees at dusk in these parts (midwest USA). Splendid leaf mimic and a local native insect 💚

you otter not miss this 🦦 It’s #SeaOtterAwarenessWeek! Stop by the marine life area all week from 10:45 to 2:15 for otter-themed games and a chance to chat with zoo staff and volunteers, as well as our paw-tners from @elakhaalliance.bsky.social!

This is brilliant.

After enacting the largest SNAP cuts in history, Trump is now scrapping the federal government's annual report on hunger in America. The utter cruelty of this regime knows no bounds.

First, Trump made us pay higher coffee and beef prices to support a convicted coup-plotter in Brazil. Now, he wants American taxpayers to bail out his friend Milei in Argentina. Trump should stop raising prices for Americans and giving away our money to his corrupt buddies.

If you buy or rent a home – or want to someday - you have to hear this. New documents from whistleblowers suggest the Trump Administration is gutting your rights under the law. We need an independent investigation.

Disney didn’t just incur a $3.8 billion loss overnight. If the boycott continues, it could escalate to over $20 billion. This is how you combat fascism.

Yesterday I returned from two weeks in Iceland, but before leaving, I squeezed in a drone flight for some abstract river shots. Here, runoff from mineral-rich soil mixes with river water to make a spectrum of greens, yellows, and oranges. #timothykeeneyphotography #photography #landscapephotography

Sea Otter Awareness Week begins! Our beloved Monterey Bay Aquarium does a 🌟celebration, with facts, quizzes and so many great images and videos. Text OTTER to 54159 for daily fun. They don’t pester you for $.

Hobbit Day is tomorrow, friends. Start your viewing marathons now!

As you cancel streaming services, here is a casual reminder that only 16% of Americans read for pleasure anymore, and your local library has hundreds or thousands of books you haven't read. They would love to see you stop by and renew your library card.

Happy birthday to Fawlty Towers! 🎂🔥 #FawltyatFifty Photo taken by Brian Moody for @radiotimes.bsky.social

Ha, ha, This didn't age well.

Russia is a vision into the future of the United States under MAGA and Trump. If you are asking yourself how Putin got so far and away with so much, just look at the United States right now.

I assume Costco is still doing good numbers while Target is not. You would think more companies might notice that the president is wildly unpopular and many people want to spend what money they have on services and at businesses that don't support fascism. (Keep the pressure on, folks.)

Folks, you can't report the United States to its manager. There's no superhero coming to save us. We don't need one giant act of heroism. We need millions of small acts of solidarity. Help one person in your community for nothing in return. Then, do it again. And again. That's the revolution.

Am in the Chat queue to Cancel Disney. Wait times are long- which I find encouraging.

Thank you #CVS, for giving so many choices for Covid and Influenza vaccination appointments here. Madison at the Easthampton, MA pharmacy was wonderful. Fine stick; nice slow push😊 And you gave us coupons! Plus snacks! Glad to write that lots of patients were there getting vaccines today.

I’m often asked for temperature anomaly plots using a “pre-industrial” baseline (1850–1900). I update a full set of these graphics each month, now through August 2025: zacklabe.com/climate-chan.... Always free to use and share!

Clever, clever! Now we can all see a ghost😊 👻🦀

Friends, reductions in SNAP benefits are taking place in October. One impact will be on people’s ability to care for #pets. If you are able to help, check for #PetPantries in your area. I did a report once on seniors on fixed incomes with pets sometimes their sole companion. The need is real. ❤️

With federal protections for grizzlies under threat, grizzly bears in the Intermountain West will need more local support. In Montana, a growing cohort of residents is doing just that—helping communities in bear country coexist while making it easier for bears to traverse the landscape. 🌎

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say. This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand. All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

Geography. Don’t skip it in school.

“American History is a gumball machine of racism…. It’s inevitably going to spit out some glob of stale, hard to digest prejudice.” Ilise Carter, whose book was released today— is not wrong. Reading several volumes on séances, divination, and mediumship in British and US history.

Hell yes, 🌟beavers🌟

I strongly suspect that much of this chaotic feeling is because of social media amplifying a small irrational minority (the U.S. president and his cronies are part of that minority) of voices and creating a false narrative. Limit what you mentally consume online.

I was hoping to get images like this from Sky cam, a raven was flying over the house and this is the flight path it took. #birds

East coast USA head outside, there are big, tall pillars in Maine at the moment which could be seen from hundreds of miles south. go.theauroraguy.com/webcams

Growth-phase arc NOW VISIBLE in Maine! Pants on U.S.-Canada border states. During a substorm, the bright, tall aurora could be visible from all locations above the 45th parallel, potentially further south. Heads up! go.theauroraguy.com/webcams

The beavers are 25% of the way! This week, I used ingenuity to skip an expense—and could send $25 more to these 🦫 Maybe you can too, with found money. Every donation helps. If giving money is not possible for you, please just repost and share. And love these ecological 🌟 gofund.me/c5138e0ca

I volunteer at the local animal shelter, and so I get the weekly volunteer newsletter (yes, it is called The Pupdate) which includes all the animals that got adopted since the last Pupdate, all of which is to say that I want you all to know that a chicken named Stevie Chicks got adopted this week.

Minnesotans: Beavers are good. If they’re out of place, relocate them please. There’s a lot of expert work they can do – at very low cost to taxpayers. They are hard workers, great parents, dedicated, low-key animals who help whole ecosystems. In the right spot they are the best neighbors❤️🦫

Ronin, an APOPO Hero Rat, has located well over 100 land mines in Cambodia. The Hero Rats of APOPO are Gambian Pouched Rats, who receive excellent care. They weigh too little to detonate the explosives. youtube.com/shorts/mdiaw...

An important detail of today's shooting is that Utah is one of only two states in the country that allow campus carry. I hope that this decision is revisited.

A lil nurse shark arrived in Coral City and circled the Cam a few times today. Welcome home! #nurseshark #sharksofcoralcity #shark #babyshark #boop #circles #coral #coralhead #coralcitycamera #miami #portmiami #biscaynebay #coralcity

If you really want to honour Ukraine refugees and victims, help them get their country back from Russia. Commit troops, donate, shoot down missiles, clear the skies, and provide all weapons asked for, to defeat the Kremlin. Go all in. Stop the invasion, defeat Russia.

Good day to remind people that we wouldn't have this Supreme Court if it weren't for Mitch McConnell deciding that no Justices can be considered during an election year and then deciding that Justices can be confirmed one month before an election. McConnell's evil directly enabled Tr*mp's evil.

Make no mistake, Russia is not at war with your government or your officials, it is at war with everyone and that includes you. Your families, friends, children, parents, elders, everyone is a target for the Russian forces. This is a war you can't sit out, act like it and be prepared.
