“Conservation means development as much as it does protection. I recognize the right and duty of this generation to develop and use the natural resources of our land; but I do not recognize the right to waste them, or to rob, by wasteful use, the generations that come after us.” - Theodore Roosevelt
If a politician’s scandals are within the last 1-5 years please stop saying they have skeletons in their closet. Those skeletons are having cocktails in the living room. They’re on the front lawn with a different hat & accessories on every holiday.
Here’s a fun reality check~~think of a date you remember as wonderful w nothing too crazy going on & do an internet search for the date & front page. Here’s Sept 13, 1987: Pope assails economic plight of Blacks in US, contras foothold in Nicaragua, pollution oceanic warning, crisis in elder care…
Live your life like a six year old running around with your friends on your birthday pausing the nerf gun battle only briefly to refuel with two giant pixie sticks full of sugar. Happy Birthday to my 23 yo who always reminds me to enjoy life.
Every time I buy something on Craigslist I’m certain I going to be murdered or told to put the lotion in the basket and every time they turn out to be the nicest person and they help carry stuff to my car and everything. PS I got the legit vintage record player 😱
I love the 1960s Dansette record player but it can’t have any smart features bc I want to use it at work.
Specifically The Man & You need to calm down. My friend asked me what my favorite genre was and I said is mild feminine rage a genre?
She must not have seen this house —My son saw it on a bike ride near Pensacola
I showed my 26yo hair stylist this picture today to trim my bangs & now he knows all about the original Charlie’s Angels—how Michael Eisner hated the idea, how novel it was to have a crime show with an all woman cast but how Farrah Fawcett had to leave by 7 to cook her husband Lee Majors dinner 😬🫠
It’s been around forever so you may have already read it but I enjoyed Benjamin Franklin An American Life by Walter Isaacson
Also not beer but these come in a can so they’re great for get togethers and super yummy. Red white & berry tastes like a bomb pop and orange cream tastes like a push-up.
This is probably about right—on the opposite side of the map from LDS. I always felt like a warmly welcomed misfit toy. I did try some progressive churches after I left but they were missing the things I loved about the Mormon church so ultimately that wasn’t a good fit either.
I got to see da baby today 😱 💖🐘💖 as soon as Bozie came in Linh Mai hid under Auntie Swarna 🥰
My Mom’s laugh still sounds so real to me even though it’s just a memory that I haven’t heard in 2 years. I came across this text where it’s just me telling her I’m home every week after driving to visit her, little touchstones that mean so much. I make my kids do it too even tho we share locations💖
Manatee Monday! Manatees live in salt water but can only drink fresh water so they have to visit fresh water sources frequently—it’s tempting but illegal to feed or hydrate them bc it disrupts their natural behaviors & schedules & endangers them by making them too comfortable around humans & boats.
I’m curious if most Americans understand the terrain of the Strait of Hormuz. An interesting bit is that it’s ~25 miles across at its narrowest but traffic is limited to a 2 x 100 mile channel. Which is tactically both a small & enormous commercial transit waterway to manage during a conflict.
Without saying your age, post your favorite film that released the year you turned 18 (Interesting P.S. more than 1500 movies were released that year 😱 and last year less than 600)
The only part of tax day that doesn’t suck! Krispy Kreme BOGO 😍 🍩 Not only are tax pros exhausted but all day hearing people be upset “I owe how much” and “who designed this” it’s so depressing 😭
Ice Cut up & squeeze a lime & throw in the slices Lime or orange Alani (like Celsius) Quarter cup of Chobani coconut creamer It foams a little when you add the creamer.
Happy Manatee Monday! POV: You're a manatee and you've touched every human today because you know you're a federally protected menace and can't be arrested! 😂😍😂
The other day as I looked at my iced coffee I thought I have NO business using a glass teddy bear (esp when it’s a cheap amazon knockoff of the Starbucks bear) and today the entirely expected happened when it was completely full of course
