Yesterday’s outfit for work and the jumpsuit I was *going* to wear for a casual vaxxed Halloween get-together, but then a sinus migraine kicked me in the head. I ended up sleeping. 😰🤕😴 #ootd #fafafafafashionbeepbeep #EverydayFashion #CatAndJack #hereforthecandy #EverydayIsHalloween #glitter #ComicShopGirl #casualpunk #PunkRockGirl #over50style #agingdisgracefully #MyStyle https://www.instagram.com/p/CVtayosF3Lx/?utm_medium=tumblr
“A who’s who of extinction surrounds Iain Bishop at England’s Tring Zoological Museum. He holds the one species still living - an endangered aye-aye from Madagascar.”
National Geographic Magazines, June 1989, “What Caused Earth’s Great Dyings?”
“Wolves of Samhain - More beer!”
The pack has discovered the wonders of beer, and are determined to have more! They’ve watched other humans dunking their heads into this small pond and when they retrieve a red thing, they get another beer! But already a bit tipsy they aren’t quite managing it and are more just having fun ;)
This is where I stopped with the series back in the day. I had planned that the police would show up to the party, and the very drunk werewolves would steal their car, terrorize the neighborhood in their stolen vehicle, and end up in a field on top of the upside down police car, howling at the moon.
Not sure why I never finished it, but perhaps someday I will have the time to ;)
A swiss diver, captured these pictures of one of the six anacondas he saw on his 10 day trip to Mato Grosso in Brazil. This one was about 26-feet long.
“At the first moment it’s scary because you don’t know the animal and everybody says it’s dangerous. ‘But after a while you understand that nothing happens if you respect the snake. ‘I have never been so close to a snake like this before. But I think a small poisonous snake is more scary than a big one. At least you can see the anacondas clearly and know what they’re doing.” - Franco Banfi
(& your life isn’t actually that much more democratic when you can vote for 10 parties but none of them actually want to get rid of bosses and landlords and somehow the landlords-and-bosses-support-party always wins.)
Y'all have a pirate party already they just need to learn to be more militant about it 😍
“You know, Tucker, this is why I quit my job last summer,” Youngkin said. “I actually could not recognize my home state of Virginia.” He had, he explained, left the corporate world to take up the sword for the Republican culture war.
Actually, according to Bloomberg News, he “flamed out” as co-CEO of the Carlyle Group, with a “checkered record”, losing billions on “bad bets”, and “retired after a power struggle”. […]
But his brandishing of critical race theory, nonexistent in the schools’ curriculum, has been apparently insufficiently frightening to finish the job. Perhaps not enough people know what the theory is at all. He needed one more push, searched for one more issue and produced one more ad.
So, Youngkin seized upon a novel racial symbol, in fact a novel. The danger, he claimed, comes from Beloved by Toni Morrison – the Pulitzer prize-winning novel by the Nobel prize-winning author, about the psychological toll and loss of slavery, especially its sexual abuse, and considered one of the most important American literary works. […]
“When my son showed me his reading material, my heart sunk,” Laura Murphy, identified as “Fairfax County Mother”, said in the Youngkin ad. “It was some of the most explicit reading material you can imagine.” She claimed that her son had nightmares from reading the assignment in his advanced placement literature class. “It was disgusting and gross,” her son, Blake, said. “It was hard for me to handle. I gave up on it.” As it happens, in 2016 Murphy had lobbied a Republican-majority general assembly to pass a bill enabling students to exempt themselves from class if they felt the material was sexually explicit. Governor McAuliffe vetoed what became known as “the Beloved bill”.
“This Mom knows – she lived through it. It’s a powerful story,” tweeted Youngkin. Ms Murphy, the “Mom”, is in fact a longtime rightwing Republican activist. Her husband, Daniel Murphy, is a lawyer-lobbyist in Washington and a large contributor to Republican candidates and organizations. Their delicate son, Blake Murphy, who complained of “night terrors”, was a Trump White House aide and is now associate general counsel for the National Republican Congressional Committee, which sends out fundraising emails reading: “Alert. You’re a traitor. You abandoned Trump …”
This blog is mostly so I can vent my feelings and share my interests. Other than that, I am nothing special.
If you don't like Left Wing political thought and philosophy, all things related to horror, the supernatural, the grotesque, guns or the strange, then get the fuck out. I just warned you.
