I appreciate all of you who make the effort to include #Blind dudes like me by adding #AltText descriptions on images you post. It’s awesome that #BlueSky has these #Accessibility tools available (not all platforms do & less people use them on other platforms that do.)
Thanks for all your efforts 😎

In Magic this is basically why Gruul and Selesnya don't get along. Selesnya is all about how serene nature is when they basically just create perfectly manicured parks!
Gruul is all like, "You think a dear won't eat a bird? Have you ever been in nature?"
Gruul is all like, "You think a dear won't eat a bird? Have you ever been in nature?"
You can always tell when folks who didn't grow up in nature are getting into a mystical nature kick because they talk about forests like they're these serene, perfect, peaceful places. No friend, nature is scary and tense as fuck and you're looking at a place where things live and die BY THE MINUTE.

The SCOTUS administrative stay is a terrible thing for 42 million Americans who are uncertain if they'll have food in November.
But make sure to blame the *real* villain: Convicted Felon Donald Trump. It was his decision to appeal in the first place.
Trump could just fully fund the SNAP benefits.

That's awesome! Not something that would be feasible everywhere - not all places recieve as much sun. I can only imagine how helpful it would be to have 3 hours of free electric a day. It's nice to dream about.

Let's go with where white hair came from. The now "long dead" people of Rhir Sief the origin for this trait.
Like how we'd tone bleached hair in real life to produce this look, this comes from a purple pigment protein in the hair shaft that is perceived as white.

📚💙 The last 10 days of Oct were rough personally. I didn't read as much as I had hoped. Overall it was a good month. Highly recommend reading Endangered Eating. I want to dig into the Ark of Taste and see what foods may be super local to me.

Vast amounts of people going hungry & not having healthcare is a failure of government. Especially when we’re talking about the richest nation on earth.
Are they even negotiating to end the shutdown or are they too busy renovating White House bathrooms & having swanky parties for the rich?

What does partially funded SNAP mean for recipients? We don't know. States will need time to figure out who gets what, how much & when. Some will need more time than others dependent on their system design.

We love to encourage people to reduce the meat and dairy in their diets, but understand that it can be hard to know where to start, and unfortunately many people are put off by the perceived cost. If you want to try adding more plant-based meals to your life, are some resources to get started! 🧵

♟️🎲 Played #APlaceForAllMyBooks at a friend's house last week. The game is cute & cozy. Perfect for the introverted book lover. I'd like to play again & see if I can do better. Also different player counts. Debating if this is something to pickup for my own collection.
