Any team that doesn’t use this product is choosing to give their opponent the advantage
Jet lag is a choice. The @49ers chose wisely. Congrats to their excellent Player Health & Performance Team. We loved working with you to optimize every part of the trip. They aced it! You can too. Join the 50k+ athletes, biz, & leisure travelers who choose Flykitt, not jet lag.

This is not a brown bear, it is a cinnamon black bear. Brown bears, like the one on California’s flag, have been extinct in CA for about a century.
A brown bear in California decided to cool off in a backyard pool.

Im a deer hunter (and a coyote hunter) and I disagree - the coyote population will take care of itself - deer are the thing that needs to be controlled. A forest tract with “too many” coyotes looks great, but one with too many deer is doomed
It’s amazing how a 40lb coyote can take down a 120lb deer. So sad to see but the prime example of why predator control needs to stay in check. Yes, these animals deserve a place in the ecosystem but their numbers must be controlled.

If this ever happens to you get out of the water immediately. The penguin saw something you don’t.

Looking at London and seeing multiple simultaneous aviation emergencies. All the planes in red are squawking 7700 (general emergency). Anyone know what’s going on?

I did this at the Long Beach Aquarium once… started a chain reaction that led to betting on improvised stingray races at the petting zoo.

@RamboVanHalen can you do a walkthrough explanation of the best of these? I’d love to see it.

In E2 (Horse Lords) (Links below) we 'step back' and explore the most incredible and horrifying story of conquest you’ve never heard of: the Indo-European conquest of Europe, and trace (most) of the Viking Ancestor's path from the Pontic-Caspian Steppe to Scandinavia, and learn how this brutal conquest laid the foundation for both Western Civilization and the Norse belief systems (spotify) open.spotify.com/episode/3HQ… (Apple Podcasts) podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…)

President @nayibbukele, I’m finishing my PhD research on tropical wildlife. My girlfriend and I are planning a vacation to Central America this spring. We’ve looked at the typical destinations, but I feel driven to visit El Salvador to experience and celebrate the recent achievements made by the Salvadoran people and to support them with my tourist dollars. I’ve visited and done research in other Central American countries, but never in your country. If we make the trip, what should we see, where should we go, and how can we best support the people of El Salvador? Thank you, and congratulations on your Victory.

Very important thread
What do I mean when I say that we are engaged in "high dimensional competition" with the ÇÇP? Allow me explain with the aid of renowned physicist Carl Sagan. 1/

And yet I have this part of me that knows that those are the people that broke this place, or at least cracked it so that it broke later along the same lines… so I’m ripped up when I recognize the same spiritual process occurring in myself, family, friends etc.

@martyrmade I’m relistening to your People’s Temple series and I’ve been feeling this weird conflict regarding this same feeling in myself wrt the quotes from P. Berman on the n. left awakening through the 60s to believe the whole western capitalist world was “the beast”. 1/2

That moment when you realize federal enforcement agencies, the New York Times, the ADL, and the street freaks tearing down statues are all the same beast viewed from different angles.

As a fan of pre-contact history, I’ve always had trouble figuring out what’s going on in Aztec glyphs; check this sweet new guide to codex iconography. Also check @DBolelli for the conquest narrative and @martyrmade for interpretation of the culture. pudding.cool/2022/06/aztec-g…

This specific variant is almost a wives-tale in some areas I’ve worked as a herpetologist. Snake suckles from sleeping mother using tail as pacifier. Told not as lore but as real recent incident w/ specified local species (always to friend of friend). Heard in northern Mexico.

@HardcoreHistory the physics of ancient battle. Just wow.

Mandatory face coverings for everyone in hospital environments. Bandanas or whatever. Nobody should be sitting in a waiting room coughing without their face covered. Simple step could seriously reduce airborn transmission for HCW.
