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.

I always think about this…. It’s hard enough to get people to properly vote. The argument there’s even one person out there driving around to different voting places to illegally vote…. Is fairly out there. To argue there are thousands? Come on now.
Not sure who needs to hear this but the voter fraud rate is a mere 0.000003%. Anyone telling you otherwise is making shit up so they can take away your right to vote.

One final bad bunny thought…. For generations people have gone to operas and other theatre where no English was spoken… but this is what they claim is a bridge too far?

Powerful stuff here.
"We know enough." Gut punch.
1. Start the thread from the beginning and then listen.
2. Get a transcript of this man's speech to read at city/county council meetings if detention camps are coming to your area.
We all know enough.

Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

Words matter. I hate when news organizations use negative or positive words in the headlines to set your expectations.

I think everyone will be able to make their own judgement of this movie in a month and a half when it hits prime if you choose to. Not saying that reviewers are wrong but random joe reviewer have it at a 99 on rotten tomatoes. 🍅 yes I know they probably have an agenda.

‘Melania’ Review: Brett Ratner’s First Lady Documentary Is a Cheeseball Infomercial of Staggering Inertia
There's no drama to Brett Ratner's cheeseball First Lady documentary, which should have been called "Day of the Living Tradwife."

Don't be surprised to see a scattered snow shower today. The real story for the rest of the week is the cold settling in and the snow already on the ground. #weather #kdka #pittsburgh #paw#snow

Pittsburgh will easily hit 8 inches of snow today, and probably hit 12 inches of snow. Looking at climatology, we hit 8" of snow in a day once every 4.5 years. 12 inches once every 15 years. Only once in history has PIT recorded more than 18 inches (March 1993) in a single day.

Snow total for Pittsburgh now up to 2.7” as of 5:14 a.m. We are around a quarter of the way through this event.
