Stopped to see the #camels yesterday. They always look extra beautiful against the backdrop of #fallfoliage. This gorgeous lady decided to steal the show.
Single-hump camel standing beside a pile of hay and looking at me/the camera. In the background, a wooden fence and farm silo can be seen with a mountain dotted with fall autumnal colors in the distance. The sky is robin egg blue with large fluffy white clouds. Camel much closer now! She's fully facing the camera as she is approaching. The background is less visible here. In this picture, you can see the left side of the camel's face, except for her mouth and nose, with her big expressive brown eye looking directly into the camera. Her curved neck leads into the graceful arch of her shoulders, followed by her hump. She is so close to me/the camera that you can just barely see some trees and sky in the distance.

My wonderful 12 year old made this awesome bunny mask from a cat mask base. She made the tail out of yarn, made the ears, and painted the thing.

Bunny mask made from a cat mask base, cardboard, yarn, and paint. The bunny is white with pink inside its ears. There is a black and orange outline around the mask and a purple skull in the middle of its forehead. In front of the mask is a white bunny tail made of yarn.

The #Taskmaster knows what's up.
Two panel meme from Taskmaster, a British panel shows. Top panel: Jason Montzoukas says, "I'm not trying to get points now. I'm just on my secondary mission, which is always ongoing: Destroy, dismantle, engulf in flames." Bottom panel: Greg Davies (The Taskmaster) says, "It's very much an American foreign policy, isn't it?"

T TERRAPIN We exist to Spread Flower to the People-to ALL people, regardless of who they love or how they identify. Love is love. Love is love. Love is love. We're So Proud to Roll with You! From the beginning, we've embraced the LGBTQIA+ community--not to check a box or follow a trend, but because we believe in keeping an inclusive, creative, loving, and beautiful spirit going in everything we do. We're proud to continue sponsoring Pride festivals, donating to LGBTQIA+ organizations, and showing up for our community all year long. Supporting those around us isn't new for us-it's in our roots. Way back in the "Wild West" days of legalization in Colorado Terrapin took a stand for what we believed was right. When the Boulder City Attorney's office tried to stop us from sponsoring a local Pridefest, we challenged it and won. That moment (covered by. Westword) helped pave the way for Terrapin--and other cannabis companies-to support nonprofits that make a real impact in our communities. Today, our support goes beyond dedicating part of our $75,000 in annual nonprofit spending to Pridefests and LGBTQIA+ advocacy. It's about walking the walk. And we'll keep walking it for our LGBTQIA+ friends, family, employees, and neighbors. We grow a lot of plants in our gardens, but exclusion isn't one of them. Love is love

pervocracy Fun statistical fact: Cows are about 300 times more likely to kill you than coyotes Minor sidenote to statistical fact: If it was common for people to keep several hundred coyotes on their property and routinely chase them into a corral and handle them, this statistic would be different. ajaegerpilot #thats why presentation of data matters #to prevent misinformation Source: pervocracy

Day 1 pictures!

When driving through HEMPfield Township in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, I saw a sign that I thought said, "Reeky Durbin Hempfield Township Supervisor". I giggled too much and then realized it said Becky.
A picture of the clouds decending upon the Allegheny Mountains behind a farm in central Pennsylvania. A political sign that says Becky Durbin Hempfield Township Supervisor beside a sign for Doug Weimer Hempfield Supervisor. My sister Mary driving. She is a white woman with short dark hair, glasses, and 4 ear piercings. She is wearing a gray flat cap, a yellow sweater, and blue jeans. In her lap is a calico cat named Samwise Kitty. Sammy cat in her blue box with her back turned to us. She was mad she couldn't get down by my sister's feet. Lol

@willybongka.bsky.social is adding anyone who disagrees with him about anything, including anatomy, to a few lists. Shitlibs, Nazis, and genocide apologizes / deniers are the lists. I am none of these things, and lists like that are just hurting attempts at organizing ourselves.

Oop. I was wrong, but right. Lol
Vitamin K Drug class Vitamin K is a family of structurally similar, fat-soluble vitamers found in foods and marketed as dietary supplements. The human body requires vitamin K for post-synthesis modification of certain proteins that are required for blood coagulation and for controlling binding of calcium in bones and other tissues Source: Wikipedia No, Vitamin K and potassium are not the same thing. While they both have the letter "K" associated with them (potassium's chemical symbol is K), they are distinct substances. Vitamin K is a fat-soluble vitamin essential for blood clotting and bone health, while potassium is a mineral and electrolyte crucial for nerve and muscle function, fluid balance, and blood pressure regulation. WebMD says they are not the same, and potassium is a mineral, not a vitamin, while EatingWell points out. "Special K" is a common slang term for the drug ketamine. Here's a breakdown: 1. What it is: • Ketamine is a dissociative anesthetic, KETAMINE. (Trade Names: Ketalar, Ketaset, Ketajet, Ketavet, Vetamine, Vetaket, and Ketamine Hydrochloride Injection; Street Names: Special K, K, Kit Kat, Cat Valium, Super Acid, Special La Coke, Purple, Jet, and Vitamin K) Introduction: Ketamine is a dissociative

I know, but I keep trying to get him to see it. It's past time to give up on him. Here is the conversation that just occurred. He's a history teacher as well.
Picture of Trump in Pope attire that was posted by Trump and The White House. Message to cousin, "This is beyond wrong. Still feeling positive?" Response from cousin, "Yes. Very positive!!! BTW this pic is in reference to a joke that was made earlier in the week when talking to reporters. You can watch the video And clearly see that it was joke. Yet the unhinged media ran with it, and SO like he always does, he enjoys messing with people who suffer Trump Derangement Syndrome by posting this photo apparently it's working. TDS is a real thing. https://www.google.com/ gasearch? q=Trump%20asked%20earlier%2 0 in%20 the%20 week%20about% 20being%20Pope&source=sh/x/ gs/ m2/5#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:8407 5db5,vid:8A1o_m6Panl,st:0 ○ Trump asked earlier in the week about being Pope - Google Search Message My response was, "I saw the video. I am aware of everything that has been happening. Watching history repeat itself in modern times is disheartening. Seeing Catholics defend this man's disrespect for the Pope breaks my heart even more." Cousin: "Like I said. TDS is a real thing. " Me: "History teachers ignoring history is another problem."

Got to spend part of my afternoon with my sister at the local weekly peace vigil/protest. Some like-minded folk gathered by the post office with some signs. "Honk for Peace" "Honk for Justice"
There was a mostly positive response from passersby, the negatives were just childish and ill-informed.
Six members of a small group that gathers weekly for a peace vigil/protest. This weekly gathering has been ongoing since the Vietnam War. The number of people varies from week to week. Visible signs say: "There Is No Justification For Genocide", "If You're Really Worried About Criminals, Look at the White House".
