#OnOneLeg is today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme; a bird balancing on one leg. A black-crowned night heron. #birds #photography #birdsofbluesky

Precisely so...

Yes. If U “break the rules in extreme ways” or perform criminal acts, U can be banned from public places. Otherwise, it’s not trespassing. I figured that was understood w/my comment. Being a Black kid who’s great at soccer is not a crime at a public park (or anywhere). Hence, NOT “trespassing.”

Folks, if you hate authoritarianism, you should be feeling good this morning. In Serbia, a student-led movement just ousted a longtime strongman, peacefully. And we Americans should be paying attention, because we have a chance in November to send a similar message. (link below)

Jefferson collected dinosaur fossils himself and funded fossil research by western explorers. He was fascinated by evidence of prehistoric life, though notions of 'dinosaurs' were still very hazy.

Given the Gjones's avatar - and who they want to platform... I also didn't notice any white women. What's their fucking point? Like when they talk about founders being Christian. Did you read what Jefferson had to say?

However, the point is very clear that the use of Noble Status and Clergy to control people was a root cause of war, violence and suffering in their time.

I love this quote, but the exact verbiage came later. I agree with the sentiment 100%.

Notably a lot of them were humanist, be them religious, deist or secular. Contrary to popular belief the majority did not practice organized religion, even the ones that were Christian.

Exactly. Even the religious ones held a strong belief that mixing religion and government ruins both.

After centuries of religious war and slaughter, most 18th century folk were disgusted by the Church and the religiously extreme (like puritans—who came to America because everyone in Europe hated them). The LAST thing the founders of the United States wanted was an overtly "Christian" government.

The "Macaroni" fashion pictured was popularized by rebellious young men of the 18th century, challenging the drab dress code of their puritan parents. Much later than Columbus.

Fingers crossed!🤞

WTH is that??

2. 🌍 With the Amazon, our planet’s lungs, hanging in the balance, protecting its forests and Indigenous communities is not merely Brazil’s responsibility; it’s a global imperative. The fight for democracy and the fight for our planet are inseparable. 🌎✊🌳

Add Hungary to the list please! I know it wasn’t today, but it was this year. Serbia Brazil and Hungary all show that the people have the power. The Rich and Powerful do not when we stand together!

They say things come in threes. Brazil rejects the right. Serbia rejects the right. Come on USA let's kick the far right out on their ass. 🤞🏾✊🏾🇺🇸

what a night

I do feel for the Cheesecake Factory folks. It does suck to be compared to the president's decorations.

I have never been in a Cheesecake Factory, so any reference is new to me. Thanks for the pic. Now I understand.

Locally owned are also usually better food with less preservatives in it, more from scratch cooking.

Well done

🖤

I’m in the DAR. Just saw this. Benny is really really stupid.

Representative Ilhan Omar 2 Days Ago.......

Maybe those other kids should just get good? The majority of kids on the other team are 2 years older than him. But according to those kids parents it's unfair for your kid to get their ass kicked by a 3 year old?

Whoever called the cops needs to be named and shamed. Absolute pieces of shit.

I am so sick of these racists with power

When he will play at the professional level the anchors will say that as a baby kid he was so good white peoples called the cops on him : in the meantime this trauma will eat a piece of his soul like the first racist experience does to everyone

EXACTLY. The officer references "the league" and the "league office." Someone who works for the league this kid's team plays in called them.
