Ive never experienced so many health services try to scam me out of money as I have living in Texas. I have to call for EVERY charge because they ALWAYS overcharge me. This is exhausting.

Hey definitely call your senators about this. Like seriously.
BREAKING: The House passed the so-called SAVE America Act which threatens to upend our freedom to vote.
The bill could disenfranchise millions of eligible voters by requiring documents like passports or birth certificates to register to vote and forcing voter roll purges. The Senate must reject it.

Best case scenario for scientists named in the files is they threw away their morals for the possibility of funding. And we should absolutely shame tf out of them for it. Science becomes villainous without our morals and ethics. Never give them up.
At least 30 scientists, including famous paleontologist Jack Horner and theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking, have been named in the Epstein files so far. Once again proving that shitty men think with the wrong head no matter how smart they are.

Epstein files reveal deeper ties to scientists than previously known
Latest batch of documents show researchers consulting the financier and sex offender on publications, visas and more.

Mondays are better with an octopus squid 🦑💫
The octopus squid (Octopoteuthis deletron) is unusual among squids. Most squids have eight arms and two long tentacles, making a total of 10 appendages. As young Octopoteuthis mature, their two feeding tentacles are reabsorbed into their bodies.

Every single month my partner tries to convince me to draw birds for my sticker club instead of cephs.
“I just think your style would work perfectly for a Strike. And I’m sure your audience would love birds.”
Manipulation at its finest. He just wants more bird stickers.
