NOAA Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary.Check out http://sanctuaries.noaa.gov/science/nautilus16/ to learn more about the expedition and how you can watch the dives live online!

Hello tiny octo!

Found this on Facebook! BOOST!
Tell Etsy that #ThisIsNotNative
Search “Native American” on Etsy and you will find 134,468 product results. Unless these items are made by Native people, it is illegal to label or tag products as “Native American.” This is a violation of the Indian Arts and Crafts Act and needs to be reported.
Every day, non-Native online shop owners upload and falsely label their products as Native American to garner more sales. These unethical businesses line their own pockets while taking away valuable opportunities from actual Native artists and small businesses.
Please help, and report violations to the Indian Arts and Crafts Board.
Our ancestors told that a black poisonous snake would kill everyone here.
WE NEED TO STOP THIS!
Our genocide is being finished off and our cries our getting drowned out by the Olympics
The Dakota Access Pipeline has been approved and all our drinking water is going to get poisoned.
It started with a 2,000 mile run from Standing Rock to the White House.This has been nothing but a demonstration that is deeply rooted in peace and prayer. Yes people are angry. People are frustrated. People are tired. People are willing to put their lives on the line and get arrested for the protection of water and lives when this pipeline breaks.
Women, children, and elders are standing on the front lines. Songs and prayers have been shared continuously throughout the days. We have seen officers break down from emotions and remove themselves. That is the strength and power being lived out on the protest line.
Pine Ridge, Cheyenne Eagle Butte, Lower Brule, Crow Creek, spirit Lake supposed to be there. Many SWO, but no camp for them yet. Poncas from OK. 500 +. People from Oregon, Cali, Montana, saying they are on their way.
STANDING ROCK NEEDS A GOOD LAWYER, to counter sue on behalf of all protesters, all tribes, all native ppl, for everything just as frivolous, emotional distress, ptsd, pain & suffering. All protestors are getting sued by pipeline company!
HELP STOP THE COVERING UP OF OUR GENOCIDE!!!

Dad keeps sharing random facts about bees
- To treat common mites, beekeepers coat their bees in powdered sugar. This kills the mites but doesn’t hurt the bees, and they will clean it off anyway. It does, however, make them look like tiny bee ghosts until they groom themselves.
- Skunks are natural predators of bees. They will grab a mouthful of bees and suck the juices out before spitting out the bees’ carcasses. To keep the skunks from doing this, beekeepers will build their hives high enough that the skunks have to reach their front paws up to get to the hives. This way, their bellies are exposed and the bees are able to fight back and sting them. Either way, bees die.
- Bees are curious, and they may follow you around for a while just to see what you’re doing. Most bees will trail you for a yard or two, but one breed will stalk you for up to half a mile.
*** bees are curious** that is adorable omg
90% of the time I just wanna go home.
how do you explain to someone that you don’t want to die but existing is just a little too hard for you right now
also guys i think it’s time to start spelling ‘small’ right again,, it’s been long enough
see the thing is, at this point, smol isn’t even a “mispelling” of small anymore; it has its own connotations. while small is a regular adjective, smol acts more like a diminutive marker, which English has been lacking
in essence, a smol dog will always be a small dog, but not all small dogs are smol.
THIS IS WHAT I’VE BEEN SAYING
Small = size indication, smol = precious and small
I just want to point out that similar things have happened before. “Cute” is originally a variation on “acute”, and now people don’t even think of them as related.
