The President does not have the authority to commit acts of war without authorization from Congress, but his administration is attacking boats in the Caribbean and military installations in Venezuela. 🧵

Happy Halloween🖤 #13DaysOfHalloween Day 13 is the Pacific blackdragon, one of the blackest (no joke, called ultrablack) animals, determined by whether they reflect <0.5% of the light hitting it. They live a couple hundred to ~2000 yards deep and have a bioluminescent lure they use to attract prey 🧪

The Pacific blackdragon, found in the deep sea, is one of the species of black fish that absorb almost all of the light that hits their surfaces, according to a study by Smithsonian and Duke University scientists. This fish uses a bioluminescent lure to attract potential prey while its black skin and transparent, anti-reflective teeth help it stay undetected in the darkness of the ocean.

Canada is helping. We are smaller but our hydro linemen from Quebec are already helping restore power and $7 million (not enough) is going towards humanitarian aid.

Personally, I think Trump was part of that ring. "Hey Jeff, I got some fresh new 'models' for you." I mean, his grandfather had a brothel in BC and later in the Yukon in the late 1800s-early 1900s. Just my opinion. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Makes sense. Apple doesn't fall far from the tree. His uncle Louis r*ped little boys at the Kincora boys home in Belfast, Ireland. 😡 Makes sense as to why he was assassinated.

I can guarantee that someone has that info, if only to use it as a bargaining chip, if you will. Maxwell probably backed up everything to protect herself.

The US is not getting the same coverage because the media is afraid of or in cahoots with Trump and his regime.

Don't believe what your eyes and ears are telling you. 🙄 There was this book I read, pretty sure it said something along those lines...🤔
Oh right, George Orwell, 1984. One of the books that are being banned from US schools now. 😒

Mhm, and I noticed many of the don't tread on me crowd are now masking up as ICE agents. Funny how those masks don't bother them but they did during COVID.

Should be working on other things but just had to share this wild study. Biologists studying flatworms observed that they could reverse body axis polarity during regeneration - i.e. which end of the worm became the head and which became the butt wasn't necessarily set in stone. WHAT.
