I always love seeing and trying to capture hummingbird moths every summer. Didn't see as many as normal this year but I thought this one was beautiful. #BlueSkyArtShow #Small #BlueSkyPhotography #BlueSkyPhotographer #NatureLovers

Although very early stages, this oral therapy has shown not only slowing of disease, but improvements in the neuromuscular degeneration. That’s pretty astounding. Fingers crossed.

Lumpsuckers are lumpy, ball-shaped marine fish with a suction disc on their underside, which allows them to cling to rocks and seaweed. They are clumsy swimmers and rely on this suction disc, which is a modified pelvic fin, to stay in place in rough waters.

Germany’s Chancellor Friedrich Merz says Berlin has been working with Kyiv for months on long range missile projects and the Ukrainian army will be equipped with them. No details on numbers or timelines, keeping Russia unsure of Ukraine’s real capabilities. Merz adds support will continue.

As a baby, Mzinga struggled to grasp the whole bottle drinking business. Today, she’s a total pro! We rescued Mzinga three years ago, when she was just a month old. It was a real fight to save her life. Today, Mzinga is known as a mini matriarch and a friend to everyone - even the resident rhinos!

If TX is ruled illegal and CA is okay, I will absolutely LOSE IT. Would be one of the funniest things to happen in a while.
In soccer, this would be an own goal.
Even funnier: if the gerrymander goes through and the Democrats win most of the new districts anyway b/c ICE lost the hispanic vote.

The moment when 30 million American's received healthcare (2010) The moment when insurance companies had to start covering preexisting conditions, young adults could stay on their family's policy and I could trust that the small print couldn't screw me if I needed serious medical assistance. 🇺🇸

Using immobilized Russian assets is the most clear-cut way to sustain Ukraine's defense. It is also the way to show Russia that time is not on their side. Supporting Ukraine is a bargain compared to the cost of Russia's victory.
