Celebrating summer, Portland style! #bike #portland #cycling #parade #neighborhood

This is a Pom-pom crab. No, really 😄 🦀 (Also Boxer crab or Cheerleader crab) The pink structures are actually living sea anemones that the crab holds in its claws for defense and to help mop up food particles. If one anemone is lost, the crab clones another by tearing it in half to regenerate.

It's astonishing how punchable all their faces are.

White-crested Helmet-shrikes of sub-Saharan Africa, highly gregarious birds live in close-knit, cooperative flocks of up to 16 individuals. They forage insects, build nests, and defend their territory together as a cohesive social unit. Male and female are identical. Famous for "Sunflower eyes"

Our remaining forests in the Amazon and the Congo Basin are the ultimate defense line against climate change. Allowing their destruction isn't just local negligence,it’s global ecocide. We must demand environmental sustainability now.

Sperm whales are the largest toothed predators on Earth and gather in rare mass congregations of hundreds. Scientists still don't fully understand why.

Philly rising! 🇺🇸💙 All Americans from every state should do the same! #Happy250BirthdayUSA

Morning. ☕️

THE SUPREME COURT IS KU KLUX KLAN KOURT !

Please vote some younger, tougher leftists into Congress. These long term corporate dems ain't cutting it.

Today of all days, let's remember that immigrants make America great.

The rest of the world can have electric vehicles. The US cannot because little boys need to hear vroom-vroom noises.

The colourful Crested Barbet Native to the sub-Saharan Africa. they hunt exclusively for insects on the ground. Male and females look similar female is slightly duller. They build their nests in natural tree cavities.

An evacuation has been ordered for all events at National Mall as a major storms gather near Washington DC ahead of the orange felon’s July 4th KKK hate speech. Good, I love this for him.

In case you haven't seen this today.

-Jay Kuo "When the government gets this kind of adverse ruling out of the Fifth Circuit, you know they’re in trouble. Panel was 2-1, with a Bush and Obama appointee in the majority, Trump appointee in the minority"

BREAKING: an anti-Trump march is currently underway in Washington DC — few mainstream outlets will cover it. It’s our duty to keep it going! Let’s go!

I envision a very sad ending to this. Months after he dies or leaves office, whichever comes first, the experts are going to tally up the government's coffers and find we've been bankrupted by Trump and his administration, just like another one of Trump's casinos.

DOE grants went to plants repeatedly cited for air, water violations after Trump rollback "Will make climate change happen faster and will make it worse over the long term." Jun 23, 2026 The Cool Down: apple.news/AHi3SgBM5SE6... 😡all these polluters lined cheeto's pockets, so they can just kill us

. Interesting Makes me think of how Israel is behaving these days Do I need to explain why? Think about it Albo is also like Vance, to a certain extent. Not cruel like JD, but he’s also forgotten or ignoring his own past with his current policies .

It’s sad that Trump is spending today attacking Senator Jon Ossoff on social media. Every holiday over the past few years has been filled with angry, divisive, and inflammatory posts instead of messages meant to bring Americans together. We miss having a leader who showed dignity, class, and grace!

Mexican man dies in ICE custody in Laredo, at least the 20th fatality this yr He’s at least the 5th person to die in TX ICE detention this yr. The TX Tribune: apple.news/AXm5CJljgQwa... 😔it's a concentration camp, just like all of the so called detention facilities, we have sunk to no humanity

Under a normal administration, he’d be given a letter of reprimand and keep his career, but I imagine they’ll throw the book at this brave man. I hope he appeals any discharge under the next administration.

Denmark’s so‑called “pig election” ended with a third term for prime minister Mette Frederiksen and a government programme that explicitly includes improving the lives of pigs. 🐖 https://veganfta.com/articles/2026/06/30/danish-government-could-curb-pig-factory-farming-after-pig-election-victory/

Lake Superior, located on the us -Canada border , is so massive that it creates ocean-like waves during winter storms .

Conservatives rage over re-funding of Planned Parenthood

We demand nothing less than equal justice under the law. Nothing has stopped us from fighting for that vision in the over 100 years since our organization’s founding, and nothing ever will.

Disturbingly accurate. We must start to right course America by voting the Republicans out of office.

This is telling 👇🏼 #FlipCongress #VoteThemAllOut #Pinks

Nothing says MAGA quite like seeing the cowardly masked Nazi group Patriot Front marching in the streets of Washington DC on July 4th with their racist confederate flags in honor of the orange felon. How far this country has fallen in 250 years because of fascists.

Feminine and masculine energy are not fixed by bodies or stereotypes. They are sacred movements of consciousness. Yin receives, Yang acts, and when both are guided by Spirit, the soul becomes balanced, loving, responsible, and whole.

America:

On this July 4 — the 250th anniversary of the start of this country — many people believe that celebrating America means waving the flag or standing for the national anthem or shouting, “America First.” That’s not what real patriotism is. Let me explain.

Chemicals, bugs, bones, pig snouts, metal, rodent parts, plastic, and PIG ASSHOLES have been found in hot dogs. This 4th of July, don’t shove someone else’s dead body down your throat; eat a vegan hot dog instead!

Don’t complain about the heat as you’re eating a hotdog! PLANT BASED IS PLANET BASED

You don't need to explain why you love worms and microbes and compost. Just come hang out with like-minded growers! 🌱

I have four shallow bowls and dishes in the yard. In shady spots. Add rocks and a stick to help bugs and small critters in case they fall in.

Patriotism should be strong enough to face history in full, not just the parts that flatter us. #America250 #July4th #Patriotism #TellTheTruth #IndigenousHistory
