Republicans are not pro-life. They just don't want to kill kids until they become a moving target.

To peel back the layers then, here we go:

Glover, a shirtless black man, is dressed from the waist down as a Confederate Civil War reenactor. Onscreen, what he reenacts are various recent racially motivated shootings, all while moving as if partially possessed by the ghost of T.D. Rice, creator of the minstrel show Jim Crow character, in turn based on the dancing of a physically handicapped stable hand.

Then, there's the cakewalk.

Cruz is amazingly idiotic. Based on his educational background he should not be so stupid. Therefore, he must be selfishly catering to the ignorant masses. https://mastodon.social/@realTuckFrumper/110407590165889647

Good afternoon, Mastodon & Happy Sunday Funday, everyone

Deer deliver in the strangest of places! If you find a fawn in your yard, leave it alone, do not touch, move or feed it. They have no scent and predators cannot find them unless humans interfere. Mom leaves during the day for 2 primary reasons: to feed, and to keep her scent away. Mom will return, but not until dusk and not if humans are around. If you discover the gift of a fawn enjoy the experience, and let the Mom do what comes naturally. Please share, thank you. #wildlife

Developing new shots for the current strain would be complicated, because most flu vaccines are grown in chicken eggs, "a slow process fraught with production issues," according to Dr. Gregory Poland, founder and director of the Mayo Clinic’s Vaccine Research Group.

@georgetakei You know another great way to ally? Use alt text on your images so those of us who can’t see them can be clued in to what you’re talking about. It’s really disheartening to see a prominent figure who I admire and who regularly promotes inclusion not get in on the alt text bandwagon here. It helps so many, not just blind people like me and it’s not that difficult once you get in the habit, at least that’s what I’ve seen a lot of people saying around here. Think about it, please. And thanks to all of you already using alt text. It makes a big difference.
