This is no time to go high. If GOP states redraw maps, then Democratic states should redraw maps. Give the same energy. They will never play fair or by the rules. Ever.

OK #bluesky, you need to harness AI to 1) block posts with *images* of muted words and 2) allow me to mute accounts of people who regularly post pics of themselves, or you're going to lose me. Trump's the worst but influencers are a close second.

TIL baby porcupines are called porcupettes 🩷 and are born with fur--so even porcupines have a (very brief) cuddly phase! 🤗https://www.nationalzoo.si.edu/object/nzp_NZP-20191108_003RP

We've been saving this little pup for when we thought you all might really need a gold star. And, given the current circumstances, here she is. 13/10
a tiny white dog stands on a tile floor and looks up at you. they’re wearing a big plush yellow star around their teensy noggin, like the world’s most congratulatory lion mane. we really needed to see her today.

I just learned the ginger plant's botanical name is Zingiber officinale. I'm going to officially start using "zingiber" as an noun meaning "a zesty person or animal." Olive is a zingiber.

This is Dunkin. He will not take a bath without his bear ear headband. Partly because it keeps his face dry, and partly because it helps him feel brave. 12/10
a golden retriever puppy stands inside a bathtub with his front paws propped up on the side. he's wearing a brown bear ear headband with two small sunflowers on the right ear. there's a smidge of concern in his face, but mostly he seems ready to get this over with.

Here we have just a little guy, toasty and content as he reflects on his day. 13/10 would try my best not to disturb him
little fluffy white dog in a yellow jacket sits on the hardwood floor of a pub of sorts. nobody is around him. he’s staring at a roaring fire, and the light reflects off his face and ears.
