I love when bonded bunnies snuggle together ! My bunnies all had loving mates who have passed away and now they refuse to bond to anyone else so sadly I have 2 bachelors and 1 bachelorette and wish I could find them love again . They are all rescues and we have tried dating but no luck 😢

Universal masking, which we tried for two hot seconds in America before people started throwing tantrums & posting up with their guns, is about the same kind of understanding ourselves as a collective we would actually need to counter fascism. You care about the community so you set a group norm.

Leak the Epstein files. If they refuse to swear in the respected 218th Vote Arizona Adelita Grijalva, then release the files and just leak them. Make a mistake...
Ooopsie!!!

AP: “Though 🇺🇸 only spends around 1% of its budget on foreign aid, Trump declared USAID — once the world’s leading donor of humanitarian assistance — a waste of💰and dissolved it.”

A nationwide backlash to AI data centers is brewing.

And for good reason: while AI enriches Big Tech CEOs and props up the stock market, data centers are sucking up communities’ water and power.

When the AI bubble bursts, the rest of us will be stuck holding the bag. Be warned.

As a historian, I can certify that we are in the bad times. But bad times eventually end.
In the meantime:
• Figure out a small way to help someone
• Figure out a small way to fight back
• Figure out a small place to find joy
• Figure out a small way to grow and thrive

And do it often.

REFUSE to let this government tell American citizens that resisting fascism is terrorism.

This is AMERICA. And you live here.

RESIST.

Desert Cottontail (Sylvilagus audubonii) are crepuscular, meaning that they are most active around dawn and dusk. One exception to this is that they rarely come out in high winds because the wind makes it more difficult to hear predators. #Wildlife #science #photography #nature

🔥 @aoc.bsky.social says Republicans have been successful with a clear message of division, which helps Trump, Musk and the Billionaires keep us divided as they “get away with highway robbery” — and to counter that Dems need to be equally clear in their message of solidarity.

Understand.

This country is on track to make sure Black people can never vote or be represented again. It’s happening.

Voting Rights is the root of EVERYTHING. Voting rights are about to END.

I know there’s a lot going on. But without Voting Rights… this country ENDS.
