[Cockroach Jan Party @cockroaches____]

The greatest trick in modern politics wasn’t making people choose sides.
It was convincing exhausted, overworked, underpaid people that their enemy is the person next door instead of the problems right in front of them.
Keep us arguing over pronouns, personalities, and culture-war headlines while groceries rise, debt grows, wars continue, and trust collapses.
The joke was never on the left or the right.
The joke was on all of us.

7 June 1892: Creole shoemaker Homer Plessy purposefully purchased a whites-only #train ticket in New Orleans in an act of civil disobedience. Following his arrest, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled against Plessy, in Plessy v. Ferguson, in a devastating 7–1 decision, a horrific ruling that legalized racial segregation for over half a century. #History #OTD #ad https://t.co/yzhulvfgZK

Most baby birds people "rescue" didn't need rescuing. Before you scoop one up, figure out which kind you're looking at.

A nestling is a true baby: little or no feathers, skin showing, eyes maybe still shut, and it can't stand, hop, or grip. This one fell too early and does need help. Look up for the nest and gently put it back. The old line about parents rejecting a chick that smells like humans is a myth, since birds barely smell at all. If the nest is gone, call a licensed wildlife rehabber. Photographed left.

A fledgling is older: fully feathered, stubby tail, hopping and flapping around on the ground, able to grip your finger. This is normal. It left the nest on purpose, and its parents are nearby, still feeding it, watching you watch it. Leave it be. Photographed right.

The only time you move a fledgling is out of immediate danger, a road or a cat, and only as far as the nearest bush.

For most baby birds, the kindest thing you can do is nothing.

🕯 Russia has killed 707 children since the start of the full-scale war, and another 2,548 have been injured, President Zelenskyy stated.

The youngest child killed was just two days old — born and killed in a maternity hospital.

Ukrainian Ombudsman Dmytro Lubinets noted that another 2,318 children are considered missing. According to him, these figures may be significantly higher, as the Ukrainian side still does not know “the full truth” about what has happened in the temporarily occupied territories.

#SundaySanity When it comes to Ai and all social media platforms, there should be an option to “Turn Off” any and all Ai content from reaching your feed.

Protect the sacred! Donald Trump is trying to auction off nearly 700,000 acres of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to oil and gas drilling right now.

Whether it’s Chaco Canyon, Oak Flat, or the Arctic—we stand with Tribal Nations and our communities in the fight to protect sacred and public lands. These lands are not for sale! ✊
