Seeing one of gods most majestic and divine creatures, fight so valiantly against the destruction and rampaging of his home should do untold psychic damage to your psyche. We should be radicalized by this.
Breathing in hefty lungfuls of smoke as I get explosive diarrhea from salad, the sky turns apocalyptic orange while oil companies drill in protected lands, screwworms are eating cattle alive and the president just paid $6 million for rape. And I’m also able to bet on all of it!
Problem: Too many mosquitoes
Ecologist: We could create shelters for bats, a natural predator of the mosquito!
Engineer: Me and the boys at Lockheed Martin devised an insect murder drone, it's totally impractical and could probably maim someone but hey we killed a moth with it
Listen to the haunting silence of an ecosystem gradually dying out over half a century.
This acoustic profile captures the progressive erasure of birdsong, serving as a stark and alarming warning of catastrophic biodiversity loss. Listen closely to realize exactly what we have lost.
PabloReports: How do House Republicans make the case that you're fighting for affordability when you go back to your districts?
Nehls: Affordability? What are you talking about? I'm gonna go there tomorrow. I'm gonna get me a couple of big lobster tails. I'm gonna get me some nice rib eyes.
Reporter: Do you think the 60% of Americans living paycheck to paycheck can afford lobster tails and rib eyes and all of that?
Nehls: Maybe not. Maybe the 60% of Americans don't work as hard as I do.
Fun fact: even if you manage to ruin the data center, now you have a giant stone monolith overrun by an invasive species.
Congrats, you have ruined the environment so much more then they could.
And the comments on this post, lol.
"How can a plant ruin the environment?" You guys have no education and it shows.
There are about 18,000 species of wasps in North America. Roughly 20 of them can hurt you.
The wasps people fear are all from one family: Vespidae. They make up less than 1% of wasp species on the continent. They build the visible nests, they defend them aggressively, and they're the ones you remember from a bad encounter.
The other 99% live solitary lives and ignore humans entirely. Many can't sting at all. Many more have stingers but never use them on people because they don't have a nest to defend.
What they do instead is hunt other insects. A single mud dauber stocks her nest with paralyzed spiders, including widows and recluses. A braconid wasp lays eggs in tomato hornworms. An ichneumon wasp parasitizes wood-boring beetles that kill ash trees. A cuckoo wasp infiltrates the nests of other wasps and bees. Some species control aphids; others control caterpillars, beetle grubs, or flies.
Most agricultural pest insects in North America are controlled, in part, by parasitic wasps that almost no human ever sees. There are over 25,000 species of ichneumon wasps alone, and they keep entire orders of insects in check.
The five or so wasp species that ruin a picnic in late August are real. The 17,995 species that are running the pest control infrastructure of an entire continent get almost none.
Thomas Massie just delivered an urgent call to action:
“Americans are under attack by a German company.”
Bayer-Monsanto.
“People this week should be calling their congressmen … and saying, take the glyphosate immunity out of the Farm Bill.”
“It’s poison.”
“This administration has sided with the German company trying to get immunity from the harm that their products may cause.”
“Chellie Pingree and I … are trying to get them to strip the immunity for glyphosate that they’ve put into the Farm Bill.”
“Bayer’s product has become unprofitable because of the harm that state juries have decided has been caused to people.”
“And there’s something broader though than just glyphosate here.”
“This would set a precedent for every pesticide, every herbicide, every insecticide.”
“It would set a precedent that the EPA doesn’t exist to protect people and the environment.”
“It exists to give get-out-of-court-free cards to corporations.”

The controversial weed killer Roundup is now being deployed in private and public forests at record rates.
We go inside the secret plan that helped make it possible. https://t.co/QVRWIQDQL2
Thomas Massie just sounded the alarm:
Congress is on the verge of handing Monsanto total immunity to mass poison Americans with glyphosate.
This is existential for MAHA.
“If farmers contract a form of cancer … from this chemical, if this makes it into the Farm Bill, you won’t be able to sue.”
Instead of pushing to repeal Big Pharma’s vaccine liability shield, Trump and his cronies are trying to expand immunity for even more poison.
It’s a complete betrayal of MAHA.
And it would cause vastly more harm than all of the benefits that MAHA has done combined.

there’s bald eagles that fly around the back fields and I found out recently that if I find a feather on my property I can’t keep it because if I’m found in possession of a bald eagle feather I would face more punishment than someone that fucks kids.
