just $200 to hit the halfway mark! that’s amazing! thank you to everyone who has shared & contributed — can we get to 50% tonight and help alexis’ awesome mom with her meds, groceries, escrow, etc? 🥰🥰🥰
More details in the slides but the gist is that her monthly expenses went up by 35%, leaving her all of $250 for utilities, food, car maintenance, and every single other thing.

On top of this, she owes $2700 in escrow due to rising taxes and insurance costs.

Ask: $4500

After checking into this room, I'm gonna get into my rust-colored Pinto and head to Shakey's Pizza, blasting the Doobie Brothers on my 8 track stereo, feathered hair blowing in the wind with the smoke from my Newports trailing behind.

smh, no wonder today’s young raptors can’t afford to buy a home
I've seen posts on different social media sites today about how younger Red-shouldered Hawks are wasting money eating avocado toast ... (🥑 part is correct not the 🍞🔥 or 💰)

Thought this blog post about the paper "Frugivory in Raptors" might be useful.

Meet the Raptors That Eat Avocados (and Other Fruit)
We think of raptors as exclusive carnivores, but at least 29 species also consume fruit. Including avocados.

The historical accuracy debate is complicated and probably beyond the scope of social media.

In theory, creatives should be able to use history as a jumping off point for their art. In practice, wrongheaded artistic decisions immediately contaminate public perception and sometimes cause harm.

Am I going to be the only one to suggest that firing a public school teacher for speaking out on a matter of public concern raises profound First Amendment issues, and we should pause before cheering on such actions when that power can be weaponized against progressive teachers in red places? 1/3
This “beloved” Chicago teacher, James Heidorn, believes he was pushed out of his job due to a two-word post on his Facebook account.

Oddly enough, the heavily Hispanic district didn’t appreciate him posting “GO ICE”.

We've joked for years about how posting isn't activism but now that the government is a gang of social media-obsessed fascists it actually is
Posting about ICE on Instagram is now enough to get you an “administrative subpoena.” 👀

One of my fondest memories is of my grandma yelling “Get out of here!” at the SEVEN baby squirrels racing around in one of her backyard trees, then a moment later opening the front door to throw a bunch of peanuts out for them.
Neighbor: You've gotta have squirrels, too -- what do YOU do about all these squirrels?

Me, thinking: Don't say feed them. Don't say feed them. Don't say feed them.

Neighbor: ...

Me: Squirrels?
