Kudos to Bernie for an advanced vocabulary that includes the word “Niggardly”. Too bad for critics that the word only sounds racist…

“In the United States, there have been several controversies involving the word niggardly, an adjective meaning ‘stingy’ or ‘miserly’, because of its phonetic similarity to the racial slur nigger. Etymologically, the two words are unrelated.”

My question is this: Who designs these enclosures that allow tourists to “cross over a barrier” designed to protect them from dangerous, wild animals?
I mean…that seems like an egregious lack of concern for public safety to me. Sure, they’ll blame this woman for her own stupidity…as they should. I mean, she’s an idiot who is lucky to be alive. But if she could easily get into an area where she was vulnerable to mauling, it probably could’ve been designed better.

Wait…so you’re saying the we humans turned gulls into the sky rats that they are?
Say it ain’t so, Joe.
#ButSeriously We humans are really a scourge on our amazing planet. Parasites. And someday, like all parasites, we will either consume our host…and kill our home world, or…more likely, be wiped out by a planet that knows how to take care of herself.
Will we figure it out and learn to be better managers of our own waste? Or are we doomed to remain #HumanTicks on an #AngryPlanet? Tik-tok. Tik-tok.#TikTok

Getting rid of cash may seem like a good idea, but it’s highly discriminatory and one of the biggest threats to
our civil rights and freedom.
