My dad, Russ Bennett, flew F86 Sabres in France and CF101 Voodoos in northern New Brunswick at the height of the Cold War. He later served with the Coast Guard, flying DC3s that patrolled the 200-mile limit and looked for oil spills. Thanks to him and to all who have served on this Remembrance Day.
Today is the anniversary of the Edmund Fitzgerald sinking. Every November 10th, the otherwise dark Split Rock Lighthouse is lit in remembrance, and a bell is run for each of the sailors lost.
The question everywhere but esp on university campuses should be how to remove administrators who immediately folded to the Trump admin on diversity initiatives, gutting of ethnic & gender studies, transphobia, & canceling of research into climate change, racial inequalities, sexuality etc

My local cinema got new seats & now my feet don’t touch the floor, so I was uncomfortable for the entire movie. I’m the average height for women in Canada. Made me think, as I often do, of this infuriating book. If you haven’t read it, you should. #booksky carolinecriadoperez.com/book/invisib...

Graham Use ALT@grahamm.bsky.social · 12mo ago“Everyone else does” If when making ethical decisions you rely upon majority approval rather using your moral reasoning then ethics is superfluous to your requirements & you’re obsequious conformists. Your cowardly obedience & wish to ‘fit in’ is our misery, pain & death. We are #OneBillionScreams

Pigs are highly intelligent, social animals - yet many mother pigs endure the severe confinement and stress of gestation and farrowing crates. They deserve compassion, not confinement. 🌱🐷 #pigs #mothers #animalliberation

If humans were to kill each other at the same rate we kill animals, we'd be extinct in 17 days.

Here it is, my annual reminder: don't spray spring dandelions with roundup. One flower can be visited by 100+ bees in a day, and your chemicals will kill all of them. 🌻
Ducks playing hide and seek and laughing about it. Original post
Please remember that dandelions are not truly weeds. They are the bees first meal in the spring. Grow and protect the dandelions, save the bees and you save the world. ✌🏻🥰
