Basic bee facts every day at 3pm.
# 46.
Relatively hardy, and able to vibrate their bodies to create heat, bumblebees are able to forage in cooler temperatures than honey bees. They can begin foraging earlier in the day and continue later into the evening.

I've seen people scolding online that we turned Betty White into a vulgar old lady because we thought it was funny to see old people sexualized.
Yeah, anyone who says that didn't watch Betty, back in the day. That's always who she's been - and I salute her for it. Dirty-minded old ladies of the world - UNITE!

Trump has brought in the "Me first, last, only" group to become the stars of the GQP. They'd rather burn everything to the ground than concede on any point.
Itβs LGBT. The vast majority of LGB are with the T.
The people who want to isolate and persecute trans people are either on the hard conservative right or are travelling that way and have zero problem being friends and allies of the hard right. Theyβll happily sacrifice womenβs and LGBT rights so long as they get to attack trans people.
@ScottSoCal @TonyStark are you telling me Republicans are cancelling Dr Seuss? That sounds like something to get really worked up about!
@ScottSoCal @GreenFire @TonyStark @BenCisco @SkipFleming @stopgopfox And this is sort of the point of a heel like Trump: Moving the goal-posts. A chump like Trump makes baby-Bush look like a real statesman to those who don't look any deeper than the top layer of pond scum.
National Indian Foundation (Funai) repeals bolsonaro government's law that released logging on indigenous lands
Measure allowed exploitation even by non-indigenous people and was criticized by environmental entities. Indigenous Peoples Minister Sonia Guajajara said she will not allow "further setbacks."
Efforts are also being made to discourage young people from working in this sector.

I've heard the argument that T isn't really part of LGB, and I don't really agree with that, but I'm not going to tell someone else who must be part of their community. But in the mind of the enemies of LGB and T people we're the same. The weapons they use against us are the same. The targets they paint on us are the same. And we're stronger together. Whether someone believes we're one community or not, it's in all our best interests to stand together, now, and push back.

This sweet little pup, named Lola, is a real survivor.
Found rolled over on her back in the middle of the road late at night, matted and dirty, neglected and abandoned, my dad took her in a few years ago, has given her a ton of love and support, and has taken care of her many medical needs - including a recent surgery to remove a very large tumor.
He's 92 yrs old and she now sits with him every day.
@TonyStark I came with the "Great Migration" and I need this space to not be hostile. A lot of us feel like we are still healing from the awfulness. Had my first rude reaction to a thread I was on, first thought was to shred the guy, so easy to do, but I was calm and inclusive and the guy favorited my response.! Almost starting crying. Whether it's trying to engage, or blocking it's worth the effort here.

I wish I was able to see it.
@georgetakei is great.
I was blown away by #GeorgeTakeiβs powerful new musical #Allegiance.
It deals with the terrible treatment of Japanese Americans in the aftermath of Pearl Harbour, inspired by Takeiβs childhood.
These uncomfortable stories are often airbrushed from history. Georgeβs passion for correcting the record shines through. The show packs a hefty emotional punch and is brilliantly realised by a superb cast, incl. #TellyLeung and George himself.
Probably the best new musical Iβve seen in ages.
