Trump: Gutting National Parks—And Hiding the Evidence
National parks hit 331M visits, but Trump officials don’t want you to know. A leaked memo bans the Park Service from promoting the numbers—while firing rangers, closing visitor centers, and cutting safety.

Walmart called the police on a cis-woman using the women's bathroom.
Even after proving she's a woman, "one deputy continued to question her appearance, insisting she 'looked like a man.'"

“I was not here…” yeah he just said that. Can he stop being an embarrassment for one meeting? How disrespectful and idiotic to not even pay the slightest bit of attention or prepare in the slightest.

I grew up in south Florida. And while i desperately miss the beach, a sight like this never gets old to me. No matter how many years I have lived in the foothills of the Appalachian mountains I will always be in awe of their beauty.

This is absolutely the motivation I needed this morning!
Good Morning ☕ and Happy Monday ❄️
This is a reminder that you're powerful beyond measure and capable of pretty much anything you're willing to work for
Work hard but remember to enjoy the journey
And don't count the days, instead make the days count
