Casual reminder that this is the same city where just a few weeks ago a police officer threatened to “put a fucking cap in your fucking head” to a woman whose four year old had allegedly taken a doll from a dollar store without telling her parents. And then the department defended the officer and all the other officers present lied in their reports (there’s video footage which shows their reports to be bald-faced lies) to protect the officers who were violent. So yeah, no fucking kidding the cops were making people uncomfortable.
The best about this is she clearly planned this but actually seeing it made her crack up so hard she could barely get the timing right for the second bit.
I’m both pro herbal medicine and pro vaccination because you can treat burns with aloe vera juice and sore throats with lavender infused honey but you can’t rid a country of polio with plants.

Don’t forget kids, jewelweed is a natural counteragent to poison ivy rashes but it won’t do shit against whooping cough
Mint for nausea, valerian and chamomile for sleep, antibiotics for fucking infections.
Pause for a moment. Take a deep breath. 70% of the air you just took into your lungs came from a healthy ocean. Sharks play a unique and irreplaceable role in keeping our Oceans healthy. Despite this fact, 100+ MILLION sharks are slaughtered every single year.

Think about that for a moment. We are literally witnessing the imminent extinction of all shark species. Now I ask this, what happens to the Oceans when every last shark is gone?

It’s OUR responsibility as consumers to see this come to an end. If you see shark meat or byproducts being sold, speak up! Ask the manager to consider discontinuing the item. Write to companies that are using squalane/squalene in their lotions, sunscreens, cosmetics, etc. Some of them have switched to the plant sourced version, but others have not. Urge them to make the switch! Send emails, snail mail, start a petition, write to your government officials, stand up, and speak out against the decimation of our Oceans.

We’re connected to our Oceans in more ways than most people acknowledge. We rely on them for our survival. If we break that link, there’s no coming back.
