Citizens! *Puts on steel toed boots* I urge you to remain calm at this moment! *loads rubber bullets into launcher* violence is not the answer! *Hangs night stick from belt* We grieve with your community! *Pulls reflective visor down on helmet* Peace is what this moment calls for *climbs into tank* The great MLK Jr said and I quote: I love police, and they are our friends! *diesel engine roars* So obey, comply, and remember we are in this together! *Tear gas launcher slowly points towards crowd*
The waiting game and when you release the shutter: eventually, the lake and I were in sync and this is the result.
Then I walked to work. I had been standing on the breakwall for the better part of an hour.

On this International Holocaust Remembrance Day, one thing we can all do in memory of the millions of victims is ensure our governments treat refugees compassionately. It was that failure by the world in the 1930s that led to many of the deaths. #HolocaustRememberanceDay

Soooo, it βappearsβ that βthe largest egg producer in the US,β has seen their profit margin soar, showing a massive increase since last year. Avian flu seems to have played an insignificant role. Inflation seems to have played a zero role. Greed seems to be the bottom line. Just another example of what folks with money are willing to do to the little guy to increase their profits. Geez, maybe we should reward these big egg producers with some hefty tax cuts. π€¬ https://mindly.social/@annie/109755900547807890

"Brutally killing people and then telling the public to only respond peacefully is one of the most wildly absurd things that's normalized as police kill more and more yearly. When they say "peace" they mean respect and accept the state's monopoly on violence." - William C Anderson

Nature is full of surprises. Meet Costasiella kuroshimae, an adorable species of sea slug known as βleaf sheep.β
At no more than 8mm, these tiny ocean critters graze on algae & keep chloroplasts in their bodies for up to 10 days. They supplement their diet through photosynthesis to create energy, which is why theyβre sometimes referred to as βsolar-powered sea slugs.β https://www.bbc.com/travel/article/20210324-the-odd-sea-creature-powered-by-the-sun #nature #science
@DidiQ German here. Completely true. Learning about history based on facts and understanding how something like that could happen was part of our basic education. I live in the US now and when my kids were old enough, we made sure to visit a concentration camp so they can learn and see what happened. It was certainly a somber visit to experience what humans have done to other humans who were different from them.
I should try to avoid lurking and do my #introduction for a fresh start.
