When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

Today a number of veterans, one being 80 years old, were arrested at the Capitol building in DC for peacefully protesting against the unconstitutional unlawful assembly of the orange felon’s dictator march. I stand with these heroes who stand against fascism.

An absolute stunner of an Archaeopteryx fossil preserves SO MUCH soft tissue, including scales on its toe pads and a group of flight feathers never seen before in Archaeopteryx. Known as tertials, they lie between the elbow and the body, and play a key role in powered flight for modern birds 🧪

It isn't that America lacks courage. It's that we’ve become so cut off from one another that many of us feel alone, which makes us feel afraid.
But when we are surrounded by courageous people, all of us become more courageous.
Courage is contagious.

Pest control is an ignorance-based industry. They create a mythology of fake bug threats, then sell you fake cures.

Gabapentin and metformin are on here and I know those are common, plus a few generics, so check your bottles to see if Glenmark was the manufacturer and if so contact your pharmacy to see if your lot is subject to recall
FDA inspectors found serious problems at a Glenmark factory in India that manufactured the recalled drugs. Another medication made there has been tied to deaths of U.S. patients.

I think we need to take more inspiration from evolution. Evolution isn't about making perfection, it's about whatever is "good enough."
Let's not strive for perfection, 'good enough' is a perfectly acceptable goal in life.

“Species concepts are human classification systems, and everybody can disagree and everyone can be right.” What is this ‘alternative truth’ BS. lol. Making a few edits to a gray wolf’s genes so it superficially resembles a different species very vaguely doesn’t make it a dire wolf.

Yeah, a lot of plants can cause stomach upset but lilies will kill your cat VERY VERY DEAD. Even the tiniest bit.
It's time to start reminding people: LILIES ARE DEADLY FOR CATS. The leaves, the petals, the stem, even drinking a bit of vase water or licking a few grains of pollen from their fur can cause fatal kidney failure. ⚠️ www.fda.gov/animal-veter...

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.

There’s been some alarming news about honeybees so here’s some important context. If you want to help bees, help native bees - bumbles in particular.
Instead of honey bee hives, plant native plants. Contact your local native plant society or garden shop and every where you can, plant native.

Honey bees are domesticated animals introduced from Europe — and aren't endangered, unlike many of North America's over 3600 species of native bees. Honey bees crowd out native bees from food & spread diseases to them. Instead of adding another hive, plant native flowers!
