If geckos have taught me anything, it’s that the Virgin Mary reproduced via parthenogenesis and Jesus should be a female clone of Mary

What does the moon want? Up there tugging at our oceans, making werewolves. Always hiding its back from us. Go away!

Somewhere in this photo is a car pretending to be an arctic fox along Hwy 93 this morning.
Good news: there were no injuries along Hwy 93.
Not so good news: deputies saw around 50 vehicles off the road (and they helped quite a few of them get unstuck).

Visibility is low, roads are icy, and traction is not your friend today.
Please give yourself extra time, slow way down, leave lots of room between you and the next car, and drive with patience and caution.
Better to arrive a little late than end up parked as part of the winter scenery. #cowx

A small thing: maybe a sound effect for sunrises/moonrises & sunsets/moonsets? Off the top of my head it could sound like when a sword is drawn or sheathed?

Today was a very good cloud day. Lovely puffy ones just after sunrise. And layered, excited ones this afternoon. I caught a downpour in one of the photos towards the end out to the southwest. We only got a few drops of rain here. #AZwx

lol #NoKingsDay is a DIRECT result of people not hiring a qualified Black woman and I think there's an IMPORTANT lesson to learn from that.

I don’t have kids, I don’t want kids, I don’t particularly enjoy being around kids. But let me be very clear and as unambiguous as possible: I STILL WANT MY TAXES AND SPARE GOING TO FEED KIDS, YES, 100%, YES.
Let me go on the record: as much money I have, whatever I can spare, I will ALWAYS want the extra to go to feed children

This is 'Rakotzbrücke Devil’s Bridge', commissioned in 1860 in the German village of Kromlau in Gablenz on the estate of Friedrich Herrmann Rötschke, now a public park.
Its purpose is ornamental: to form a perfect circle with its own reflection when light & wind permit.
