Banding owls really is a spiritual experience. The woods are dark and quiet save for the rhythmic “toot, toot, toot” of the audio lure. They seem vacant. Suddenly, a tiny nocturnal spirit drops in to bless you with its brief presence. Then it’s off, likely never to be seen again.

A group of high school students is leading the charge for a tenant protection ordinance. They did the hard work. Durham NC friends, time to show up!

not all women want to have looks be so important

it is sad seeing a woman make it a thing about another woman

narratives of women doing their work w/o references to looks would be refreshing + new in human existence

Olde Stuffe @annalsofwarren.bsky.social · 15h

thank you

my exact reaction

and to have the looks thing coming from a woman about a woman is added suckiness

1

Olde Stuffe @annalsofwarren.bsky.social · 15h

thank goodness she has looks

it is so important

women are so much more effective when they're "attractive"

women everywhere thanking you for keeping appearance front + center

because American doesn't have enough rare earths

if we did, we'd likely not be talking about Argentina, or even China as much as we do

Racism is the reason the Voting Rights Act was made into law in the first place!

When were White people ever denied voting rights in America prior to VRA or discriminated against at all?🤔

I'll wait. 🔥☕️

The Voting Rights Act Is a Lesson in Overcoming Setbacks

While the Voting Rights Act was undoubtedly a singular achievement, it represented the culmination of a long struggle.

268 days and this is what's on my mind:
400k deported
205k arrested/booked by ICE
deadliest six-month period for immigration detention since 2018 has occurred this year
at least 22 (that we know of) dead by ICE this year
all the women suffering/dying while pregnant
epstein files won't end all that

doubt it

WTI and North Sea BRENT oil below $65 per barrel
means demand is not up but supply is

it's the rare earths

i manage assets

Olde Stuffe @annalsofwarren.bsky.social · 16h

rare earths

oil can't get over ~$65/per barrel for BRENT and WTI

it's rare earths in competition with/to lessen dependency on China

Olde Stuffe @annalsofwarren.bsky.social · 16h

less about oil, more about rare earths

Argentina has some

Olde Stuffe @annalsofwarren.bsky.social · 16h

yes, it is also about rare earth elements

Argentina--named for silver--is loaded w/ rare earths, tho not enough to put a dent in the China supply

we are competing with China through Argentina, hence why the nation and leader are the current GOP darlings

well, let's get out our costumes + go play rave + see if that doesn't just quell the fascism overtaking us

i know what it has always taken to end these things

so does Lincoln + the Ford plant strikers in 1937 + Malcolm
