Franzi Schimmer captured this Grizzly bear in Brooks Falls, Alaska just floating along, tippy-tapping down the river, browsing the salmon.
Prior to hibernation, up to 40% of a bear's body mass is fat, which is less dense than water (~0.9 g/cm^2), so the murder-monster is also a floaty-boaty.

This is not safe for LEOs either. The whole point of keeping these operations separate is so that people aren't afraid to report criminal activity within their communities.
Also, being undocumented is not a federal crime, so don't @ me.

Very excited to buy this book once I get out of country ass Colorado and back to the Bay (CA).
@michaelharriot.bsky.social does an amazing job with this one and I can't recommend it more. Must read (or listen)

The DOJ is monitoring what lawmakers search for in the Epstein files. Maybe they could put that same energy into monitoring, I don’t know… the people in the files.

Australia is famously a place with some of the world’s most dangerous and frightening animals.
But it is also home to one of the world’s cutest: the flying fox, also known as the giant fruit bat.

Poll taxes are unconstitutional. Any i.d. that is required to vote has to be provided by the government.
This is a way to disenfranchise the poor.

Yes it’s Valentine’s Day. But it’s also the chosen birthday of Frederick Douglass who was born in 1818 on a plantation in Talbot County, Maryland. He escaped from slavery & rose to become the most eloquent and forceful voice for the abolition of slavery & for Black voting rights in the U.S.
