Actual sign in Florida requesting you not give manatees water and raising a lot of questions that it does not answer
hey friends! this just swam across my dash and I wanted to let you all know why you SHOULD NOT give manatees water from your hoses at your docks! See, manatees in the US of A are salt water critters and if they ingest too much fresh water (AKA from the hose as pictured above) it will cause them to get sick and die. Also, it makes them form habits that they will recieve fresh water from these docks, and therefor they’re more likely to be hit by boats in the marina (they cannot hear the frequency that boats produce, therefor they never even see them coming). So for all of you wondering why this is: now you know! Please help keep this gentle giants safe and happy and abide by signs are rules when in areas where manatees roam!

What baffled me was simply why in the world anybody ever saw an animal in the water and thought “I bet this would like some water” enough times to become a problem
Why do the manatees want fresh water in the first place, and how did they figure out they could get it from ppl?
*droning* “Hail Sulis, queen of the harvest, blessed is thy holy light, we ask you to accept this goat as a sign of our reverence to your power and benevolence” “Do remember that the spring fete is coming up and we will be drawing lots for the sacrifice on the next full moon, additionally there will be a cream tea to benefit the stone circle maintenance fund this coming Wednesday, and we must remember to thank Mrs. Springfield for providing several of her excellent cakes”
Why Christopher Lee did not make this speech in the Wicker Man is beyond me
i require this movie immediately
The original wicker man is rather like that

The fact that Gloria Steinem ADMITTED to informing to the CIA on the actions of her black radical comrades and is still considered to be a relevant and respectable feminist figure just goes to show the reactionary character of liberal feminism. 💩💩💩
CIA agents are tight-lipped, but Steinem spoke openly about her relationship to “The Agency” in the 1950s and ‘60s after a magazine revealed her employment by a CIA front organization, the Independent Research Service.
While popularly pilloried because of her paymaster, Steinem defended the CIA relationship, saying: “In my experience The Agency was completely different from its image; it was liberal, nonviolent and honorable.”
i mean….. she told on all communists she met. that was kind of the thing to do in the 50s/60s. we were in a goddamned war with them.
if youre going to criticize her, then do it well. this is just propaganda.
we were not in a goddamn war with american citizens. jesus fuck. and no that was not the “thing to do” at the time. kirk douglas managed to not do it, someone who is ostensibly a progressive thinker as an entire vocation should be able to also
Feminism is incompatible with capitalism as an ideology.
@gruochmacbeth and anyone who agrees with this sentiment: what you’re advocating is McCarthyism. Literal McCarthyism.
My point is that OP claimed she was targeting black people, when she was targeting communists. Who we were in a war with. as much as I dislike communism, I’m not defending her or what she did, bc it was a part of McCarthyism.
bruh, every single prominent Black Feminist/Womanist from Angela Davis to bell hooks to Audre Lorde to Alice Walker was/is a communist(or gen. anti-cap.), the Black Panther Party was filled with communists. MLK as an anti-capitalist (not quite commie as ‘‘Communism’s Challenge to Christianity’’(1952) points out but I digress in “Where Do We Go from Here: Chaos or Community?” he decried America’s ‘‘morbid fear of Communism,’’ arguing that it prevented people from embracing a ‘‘revolutionary spirit and … declaring eternal opposition to poverty, racism, and militarism’’ (page,190)). you may think that’s a big coincidence but when once upon a time capitalism considered you ‘property’ and today continues to exploit your labour and funnel your pple into industrialised prisons and sanction violence against you, you may hate capitalism too.
Gloria narked on the very Black Women who she today claims inspired her feminism. if you don’t think that’s fucked….well that is some shit.
The BPP was an explicitly anti capitalist (mostly Maoist, but with some other far left types like Ashanti Alston who’s an anarchist) organization and used a lot of imagery inspired by radical portions of the labor movement so yeaaah narcing on commies was narcing on black radicals most of the time https://www.marxists.org/history/usa/workers/black-panthers/
