bat fact: liking bats or any other wildlife is inherently political if we don't want these amazing animals to go extinct we have to force our governments into taking care of our planet

This year alone has been a time and so I put it all into one little sticker hah 💦

@mattsheffield 17. Voters who knew the facts voted for Harris. Voters who believed lies voted for Trump. That is the new fault line in American politics.

A little story if you dont mind. I once owned a business. One day myself and a white employee were going to a client's home in a city called Livonia (Mi). We were driving down a main street going west. A police car was going east. The cop looked over at us as we passed. I told my white employee that we're about to get pulled over. Sure enough, the cop whipped a u-turn, hit his lights, and pulled up behind us. My employee was a little shaken and asked, what did you do, Mr. Ross? I said, nothing. The cop asks for the usual. I asked him, "Why did you stop me?" He said your brake lights are out. My employee blurted out, "That’s Bull $h*t Mr. Ross!!! How did he see your brake light while he was driving towards us?" The officer saw my fire department badge when I gave him my driver's license and didn't pursue his ruse any further and let me go. He was fishing. Hoping to find a black guy driving dirty. When the cop pulled away, we checked my brake lights, and they were fine. I told my employee, "You've just witnessed, "Driving While Black." It's a real thing.

There’s a teenager in the ICU in BC with bird flu. As news spreads- I’m seeing increasing number of people ask “what health conditions did he have? Was he overweight?” Can we PLEASE not do this again? A 16 year old is fighting for his life. Stop looking for fault /1 🧵

The latest US literacy stats have just dropped and they are every bit as grim as you might imagine. "Approximately 50% of Americans read so poorly that they are unable to perform simple tasks such as reading prescription drug labels"

The Anatomy of a Borb. By fluffing up their feathers, they trap tiny pockets of air close to their bodies, which acts as insulation. Helping them regulate their temperature and making them very round.

@RyanRaeHarbuck A Rubik's cube? My younger brother carried one everywhere for a large portion of his school years.

Quick! I need a random inanimate object that a kid might have in their backpack. Something totally unexpected and speaks to adventure, without speaking to adventure.... and it's not a snorkel...😅🤷‍♀️🙏

@Kchaulk4 @ronsterd89 Chili is an EXCELLENT idea. Add beans, tomatoes, bell peppers, and onions, and the beef will stretch pretty far.

@ronsterd89 Chili, sloppy joes,

What can I make with 1 lb of ground beef to feed 6 people besides spaghetti?

@LexiBury That's one more sweater than I've ever knitted! I think it looks fabulous on you! Well done 🥰

I finished knitting my first sweater! The sleeves are too long and I made a million mistakes, but I'm still pretty delighted about it🧶

@MsShade @hootalex Agreed!

The same things that stop covid stop flu dead in its tracks. Bird flu too. You know. Masks. Testing. Isolating when sick. Good hand hygiene. The simple stuff. We don't need to have a pandemic, you know.

To all conference attendees everywhere, please never decline a mic. The loudness of a voice is not the only thing that makes it intelligible and so some of us cannot hear you regardless of how well you project. This is my 11th year of tweeting this plea. #POD24

@RealSpikeCohen Next they're going to recall the peanut butter because "peanuts" were left out of the ingredient list. 🤣

80,000 pounds of Costco butter was just recalled, because the label doesn't say that it contains milk. It's butter. News articles are telling people how they can return, or safely dispose of, the butter. It's butter.

@davidsupercat Bless you for making sure Jim stays safe during his outdoor adventures. 🥰

Some of you have voiced some concerns about Jim going outside. Let me reassure you, for those that don’t know, my garden is completely surrounded by a cat proof fence. It was professionally installed and works perfectly. He was only out for a short time 😸.

@Nuraar Pfffft, your coworker needs to up their game. 35 wpm is slooow. I can hit 75 or 80 wpm without breaking a sweat. Sometimes 90 if I'm really in the zone.

Do y'all know your typing speed? My boss is old me that 40 wpm is hard to get. I was confused and asked to do an official test and I got 75wpm with a 95% accuracy. She got about 65 and my coworker got 35... I always thought 70 was average.

@rattlesnakeguy I spy a spicy noodle.

A Cave Creek homeowner was watering her garden when she noticed an odd-looking rock. What was she actually looking at? Answer in the next post.

@rattlesnakeguy I'm so glad they didn't kill the snake in retaliation for biting the dog. I hope the dog survived too. 🙏

A dog was bitten at a dog park, and the dog owner brought the rattlesnake to the emergency vet. The vet then called our hotline, and CJ went out to return the snake to a suitable situation back within its estimated home range.
