As [Charity Adams]Earley’s son, Stanley, said, “My mother was always enormously proud of the Six Triple Eight. This [6888th] monument is a statement of the responsibility, determination, and honor, and it is a gift from the recent past addressed to the future.”
Kansas Senator @JerryMoran said, “When we unveil this monument, what we are really saying is this: Thank you for your service. We respect you and we love you.” https://t.co/mscrgeszvh

New York City’s homeless shelters are running out of space. The city is facing a level of homelessness not seen since the Great Depression in the 1930s — and an influx of asylum seekers is only putting more pressure on the system
Hey fireworks time is coming.
It’s a crazy bad time for the animals in your neighbourhood.
Like REALLY bad.
Many dogs will be cowering in fear for hours from sounds they don’t understand - but it’s more than that.
Dogs HEAR better than humans. They hear all the frequencies of a firework that human ears miss. That high pitched whistle of fireworks could be shattering to a dog.
Dogs can smell the fireworks easily - and that smell will linger long after the explosion fades - ramping anxiety for hours.
Many dog owners flee neighbours that have fireworks shooting off or have to give their dog drugs to calm them down.
Some dogs have actually died of fright. Not from being so scared but from being in such terror they flee their normally safe environment and become lost or hit on highways.
Many dog owners report terrible injuries like ACL tears and ripped nails as dogs move around a home in absolute terror.
60% of dog show a marked fear of fireworks (RSPCA data).
This is a majority of all dogs.
Dogs are the best.
They are literally one of the best things on this planet.
If you love dog accounts, if you like photos and videos of them and say LOOK AT THIS DOG and and show your photo to someone, if they make you smile, if you love petting them, if they bring you joy - skip the fireworks.
Thank you.
