WTF. What is this world we live in? I'm out. Done.

Pigeons get called sky rats.

But birds like these once carried messages through gunfire when every radio failed.

And the part most people miss is this.

For thousands of years humans relied on pigeons to move information faster than any technology available at the time. Their homing instinct is so precise that a trained bird released hundreds of miles away can still navigate straight back to its loft.

That simple biological skill made them invaluable in war.

During World War I and World War II, armies deployed hundreds of thousands of pigeons. When telephone wires were cut and radio signals failed, commanders often had only one reliable way to send a message through chaos.

In 1918 a Pigeon named Cher Ami carried a desperate note from trapped American troops in the Argonne Forest. The bird was shot through the chest and lost part of a leg during the flight but still delivered the message, helping stop friendly artillery fire and saving nearly two hundred soldiers.

Today their descendants wander city sidewalks, pecking quietly for crumbs.

Most people see a nuisance.

History once saw a lifeline with wings.

@elonmusk has a tinier penis than @realDonaldTrump. Evidence shows.

@atrupar GOD. DAMN. IT.

And the ending, just wow. I won't spoil it if you haven't seen it yet, but just.. wow. Some other notables were involved at the end. And I've been a true crime buff since I was just a weirdo kid at the public library.

If you also finished it, tell me what you felt about it?

Also, after finally finishing the Gein series, I don't know how to feel about how it was embellished. There was a lot of mystery and unknown around that case, on account of the shoddy police work and a lack of technology or forensic protocol at that time in small town Wisconsin.

It took me about at least an episode and a half of "The #EdGein Story" to realize that Ed was being played by dog-dang Jax Teller from Sons of Anarchy. That may be the first time his native accent hasn't kept slipping up in a role? (He did an amazing job, btw.)

This hits me in such a way that I cannot put into words. I've never seen something I've struggled with for decades explained more perfectly. #CPTSD

Today is May Day, a day of protests planned across the entire US nation, speaking out against what Trump is doing to innocent, hardworking immigrants and his abuse of government power. Look up your closest protest location and time, and be there if you can. #MayDay

I love how all of us Floridians are terrified of the Huntsman and Goliath spiders in Australia... yet we don't bat an eyelash at dinosaur reptiles like those alligators hanging out in our backyard.

@realDonaldTrump has the most micro of micropenises. Never met a dude with such micro dick energy.

This bit from @eddieizzard's 1999 'Dress to Kill' special came to front of mind after learning about Trump's recent military ban. https://t.co/IzHjShvC3J

@BigRedCeltTT Awwwww. What a doggo. Lucky you.

@MitusMoses @joe_jo4 @Acyn Easily disproven by a simple Google search. "After graduating from college, Sanders returned to New York City, where he worked various jobs, including Head Start teacher, psychiatric aide, and carpenter." Sanders has held more positions and worked harder than Trump ever has.

Elon Musk has been in regular contact with Putin since late 2022.

At one point, Putin asked him to avoid activating his Starlink satellite internet service over Taiwan as a favor to Chinese leader Xi Jinping. Big @WSJ scoop: https://t.co/NUgcDtkzkR

So glad that I got my vote in for Harris and Walz. Not only are they very strong candidates with actual plans (not just concepts of plans)... but they're dang good with them burns.

[Acyn @Acyn]

Walz: Look, I won't waste all of the time. I will talk about his running mate. His running mate, Elon Musk. Elon is on that stage jumping around skipping like a dipshit.
