I never change, I simply become more myself.

My mom says something very much like this often.

I’m not sure how to tumblr anymore. Hi.

Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passion, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.

The SPLC has released a wonderful guide to speaking up about bigotry.

The responses are direct, gentle, and very good. It has sections for family, friends, coworkers, and self.

Please read it, please spread the link, please keep this link around as reference. Everyone needs to see this. It is very important that we arm ourselves that we may be better able to address the casual hateful speech many of us are likely to encounter.

One of the most effective tools at our disposal is protecting the area around us, and making sure that things like this said within earshot of us will not go unchallenged.

Do what you can, but also stay safe.

The crux of the matter is whether total war in its present form is justifiable, even when it serves a just purpose. Does it not have material and spiritual evil as its consequences which far exceed whatever good might result? When will our moralists give us an answer to this question?

WHAT ARE BIRDS

Hello yes! A Science Birb, here to explain the science!

Birb have VERY LARGE EYE in skull. Very good for seeing! But not space for muscle, birb cannot move eye. For mammal to make steady image, keep focus on single thing, always moving eye! Tiny movements, sometimes not even know. But birb cannot make tiny movements! So, birb must move whole head. And that is why the birb can keep steady the head when the body is amovering!

Thank you for listening to a science

Obituaries My Mother Wrote for Me While I Was Living in San Francisco in My Twenties

It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Bess Kalb. The cause of death was botulism from a homemade strawberry-rhubarb jam that was prepared by one of her housemates.

In Daily Shouts, read more remembrances.
