@chicagobulls NBA teams have kept players on their rosters who have beat a woman, been arrested over drugs or DUI, been accused of rape and who’ve been in public sexual deviancy dramas. But they drew the line today and waived Jaden Ivey for voicing a Christian view opposing LGBTQ Pride events.
@chicagobulls So if players disagree with Pride Month it’s “conduct detrimental to the team” & they get fired?
How is this not Christian discrimination?
@libsoftiktok@VCUHealth This is not grounds for firing. This is grounds for arrest for attempted murder. Succinylcholine is a paralytic used only in emergency settings because immediately after injecting, patients are paralyzed and must be intubated . Without intubation, they die.
‼️ Wow, this is awesome
Freezing water with a few drops of food coloring into colorful ice bricks and building an igloo?
Peak winter DIY. Unforgettable for the kids. Bravo parents 👏🏻
California's Central Valley produces 80% of the world's almonds. Each almond requires 3.2 gallons of actual irrigation water to grow. Not rainfall. Actual tap water pumped from aquifers.
One gallon of almond milk requires 162 gallons of irrigation water. Compare that to dairy milk at 8 gallons of tap water per gallon, with the rest being rainfall that falls on pasture anyway.
But here's where it gets properly grim. Almonds bloom for exactly three weeks in February. During those three weeks, California needs every pollinating bee in North America transported to the Central Valley or the crop fails entirely.
Commercial beekeepers truck in 31 billion honeybees. That's two-thirds of America's entire managed bee population, all concentrated in one valley for three weeks. The bees are packed into trucks, driven across the country, dumped into almond groves drenched in pesticides, worked to exhaustion, then packed up and shipped to the next crop.
The mortality rate is catastrophic. Beekeepers report losing 30 to 50% of their hives annually. That's billions of bees dead. Not from natural causes. From being used as disposable pollination machines for your almond milk.
The pesticides don't help. Almond groves are sprayed with neonicotinoids which scramble bee navigation systems, fungicides which weaken their immune systems, and herbicides which eliminate the wildflowers they'd normally forage on between almond blooms.
Meanwhile the aquifer depletion is permanent. The Central Valley has sunk 28 feet in some areas from groundwater extraction. That water took 10,000 years to accumulate. It's being drained in decades for almond milk.
Your vegan latte killed more bees and used more water than a year's worth of dairy milk. But it's got "plant-based" on the label so you're definitely saving the planet.
@mikeklis9news dome teams just turn the game into arena football... bland with sticky gloves for easy one hand completions. Outside is what football is. The game will die inside
Spotted organizing tonight’s protests in Minneapolis: the literal Communist Party.
Here’s the pin they’re handing out to match the flags they’re waving. @realDailyWire
