The Tasselled Wobbegong is a master of disguise that can eat a fish almost as big as itself in one gulp. It's classified as a shark, but when it lays on the sea floor it looks like a harmless rug if you manage to see it. But with powerful jaws and sharp teeth they are no fish to mess with.

Good people doing good things.
A mission success! We brought 55 cats/kittens & 1 dog from our pickup point in Troy AL (animals from FL) & flew to Norwood MA & Caldwell NJ where rescue groups had cars lined up w folks to whisk them away to new homes. Happy holidays for these little sweethearts! #PilotstotheRescue

Is it drug abuse?
Or is it nervous energy one would experience remembering you’re a Black Jew who made a death pact with literal Nazis?
I think it’s both.

“Being surrounded by masked, unidentified men was terrifying. I have seen many incidents online of people impersonating law enforcement, and in that moment, I panicked.”

Powerful, and any gay or lesbian person who celebrates anti-trans policies should read the part about using the anti-trans hysteria to limit gay and lesbian rights.
IRW — a Pulitzer-winning nonprofit newsroom at American — and @thebarbedwire.com traced the history of anti-trans legislation. Houston conservatives realized homophobia didn’t fly anymore, weaponized girls’ safety, and parroted segregationist language. It worked.

Trump announces plans to “evaluate” the entire childhood vaccine schedule.

This was always the plan when RFK Jr. took power.

It’s clear from the video this woman had just come to the park to play with her child. She said as much and was upset that there were masked men with guns in the park.

Border Patrol chief Greg Bovino calls the woman an “activist” and Andy Ngo says the woman was using her child as a “human shield.”

ICE fired a munition at Rep. Adelita Grijalva as she demanded answers during a raid in her own community. No warning. No accountability. Just armored agents treating Tucson like a war zone. If they’ll fire at a Congresswoman on camera, imagine what they do to everyone else. Sick MFers.
