Family adopted a dog. Then they went back to the shelter and adopted their dog's sister, too.

Rubbing a quokka, if you catch my meaning.

POV from eagle's shoulders.

Morning glory.

Otters may be cute, but some of them are jugglers.

Aurora borealis light show.

Giving your carrot to a beaver, if you get my drift.

A genius innovation in shelving. Think of the number of dead batteries and chop sticks you can store in there!!!

Deer bounding down suburban street.

Talking toy makes for a good babysitter for puppies.

Big machines for building bridges.

Eclipse at... sunrise?

Now this is podracing!

For your morning drive, expect some slowdowns caused by fast-moving lava.

Inman:

Super Ninja Recovery.

Skynet's warming up.

Skynet Phase 2.

Bruce Wayne's early training videos.

Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the ocean again...

Then they ask if you want to see more or less. The worst thing this week is four day old weather reports from other states. It has been helpful for local events

57 It might be a bit hyperbolic to call a student sit-in a terrorist activity.

Look at the comments here. You have multiple commenters actually calling for the students to be shot and killed.

It's a very strange dynamic

Since I was one of those calling for those students to be shot and killed I’d like to respond to this jackass.

When you support savages that tied a mother and her baby together with wire and then set them on fire and watch them burn to death, or kidnap a mother and her baby’s and beat them to death because they’re a different religion or ethnicity you’ve lost any consideration for what you want to call civilized behavior.

Yaks produce milk and beef, while penguins just produce inedible meat and feces that smells like rotten fish.

Eli Lilly said Wednesday it will build three manufacturing plants in the United States to make the key raw ingredients in its medicines, a push to bring home a critical part of the pharmaceutical supply chain that largely comes from foreign sources.

The Indianapolis-based drugmaker said it will more than double its planned investments in manufacturing to $50 billion, including plants it has announced since 2020, as part of what it called the largest manufacturing investment by a pharmaceutical firm in U.S. history.

85 The Washington Post published a report today stating that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has advised the Trump administration to repeal the 2009 “endangerment finding,” which classifies greenhouse gases as a threat to public health and welfare. This finding has underpinned federal emissions regulations for over a decade. The Post suggests that such a move, if enacted, would mark a significant shift in U.S. climate policy. The story relies on unnamed sources, leaving its claims unverified but noteworthy given the potential implications.

I think she { Ariana Grande } got into an Audrey Hepburn kind of thing and took it too far.

Audrey Hepburn did not have an eating disorder.

Hepburn survived starvation during World War II, which her family has said may have contributed to her lifelong thinness. The daughter of a Dutch baroness and a British father who left the family when Hepburn was 6, she barely survived the German occupation of Holland, which began when she was 11.

"By the end of the war, she was very close to death," says Dotti. "She survived by eating nettles and tulip bulbs and drinking water to fill her stomach. She was almost 5' 6" and weighed 88 lbs. She had jaundice and edema. She suffered from anemia the rest of her life, possibly as a consequence. … She was the same age as Anne Frank and [later] said: "That was the girl who didn't make it and I did." Her voice would crack, and her eyes would fill with tears."

BREAKING: AG Pam Bondi says “some” Epstein information including “a lot of flight logs, a lot of names, a lot of information” will be released tomorrow. 👀👀

"some" means that tomorrow's release will probably be the end of it

Are they now gonna be "confirmed", like Hunters phots were confirmed... years later?
Flight logs don't mean shit. The FIB raided that island and has (did have, guarantee they weren't destroyed) video.
Texas (?) ranch had video. There is blackmail hard evidence. Where is it, and who was being blackmailed?
Anything else is trolling us.
And with this latest "great" budget, I think we're already being trolled.

185 I like this one : "Secretary of State Marco Rubio is moving to deny visas for transgender athletes in compliance with President Donald Trump’s directives.

Rubio’s State Department issued a directive on February 24 placing a “permanent fraud bar” on applicants who “misrepresent” their sex while applying for a visa to enter the U.S. to compete in sports."

186 What's more important than the Epstein files is that shutting down USAID strongly reduces the possibility that there are any more of him out there. Or at least any more taxpayer funded pervs.

The left has started to wind up some small scale garbage but it's not that impressive because their guys are actually having to pay for it now and they're all too greedy to blow a lot on obviously ineffective things.
