Honestly? Enjoy the meltdown, but stay locked in. That Big Ugly Bill is still on the table, and it needs to go. Call your senators and light up the phones. (202) 224-3121

Speaking of Bananas. Some of our subantarctic fur seals also exhibit the banana pose like the image below.

Because when life gives you no bananas, became a banana! (*and don’t tariff other people bananas)
The only good thing in the world today is that I learned about "banana pose" which is just something seals do when they feel safe and content. Just happy seal things.

On #DollyDay, we're returning a little bit of the love that Dolly Parton has poured out during her lifetime.

As an employer, she has championed fair labor practices. Did you know Dollywood is consistently named a top place to work and its management theme is “lead with love"?

You can’t KPI your way out of a crisis.
🎯
Finland Didn't End Homelessness With Magic. They Just Didn't Treat It Like a Business Plan. You can still run a café. Start a band. Sell socks online. Capitalism still works in Finland. But they decided that housing people didn't need to turn a profit. Because sometimes, the moral thing is the practical thing. And no one thrives when their neighbour is sleeping in a tent by the river. You can't KPI your way out of a crisis. Sometimes, you just have to give a damn.

NGC 5335, 200 million light-years away, in the direction of the constellation Virgo, is a barred-spiral galaxy w/ flocculent arms. Relative to other galaxies, the central, barred region is particularly prominent. In the background are thousands of other galaxies.
