Don’t get sucked into the whataboutism. There doesn’t need to be competition between public health advances - each are important & critical in making people live long + healthy lives. Anyone in public health will tell you this. Alas, the folks doing damage only know how to rage bait for self-gain.

On rare occasion there’s an accurate headline about rapid climate warming
and it’s always jarring as hell
and a reminder how much we’re being lied to on a daily basis.

Got Tower of Power on. Let's go.
October 2004—I was 17, jazzed to see an eruption of Mount St. Helens in my lifetime.
The earthquakes, the eruptions through Crater Glacier, and the subsequent growth of the whaleback dome and spine.
We were spoiled from 2004 to 2008, weren't we? Harmless dome fun.

Resembling saber-toothed fuzzy potatoes, these adorable rodents use their long incisors to gnaw through soil, digging elaborate tunnels. Damaraland mole rats spend nearly their entire lives underground, communicating using squeaks and growls. Meet our mole rat colony at Kids' Zone!

Awful sore at #kyanite for beating dioptase a while back, so probably stumping for #hematite this round.
