Hello Fediverse! This is my #introduction .
I am an educator of indeterminate age from the high, cold, beautiful #mountains of North Park in Northern #Colorado - fifth gen #ranching family on stolen #Ute and #Arapahoe land.

I am a #gay man, #bibliophile and #proletariat fighter in a dying community that has been consumed by #ultrarich for their #Western fantasies.

I post about #cats , progressive politics, #nature and western US issues like #water.

I love #gaming , #reading, #maps , #anime , and animals.

I lived in #Prague for six years, and Mexico City #cdmx for three.

It is an isolated existence up here, being who I am, and I’m hoping to find a larger #community .

Thousands of palestinians seen in this horrifying video fighting to get some bread for their families.

Gaza is facing an imminent and acute #famine because of the Israeli attack against them.

The few food trucks allowed into #Gaza by Israel are like drops of water in an ocean.

With over a million people in the south and some 700 000 people in the north with no access to #food, #water or #medicine, the #catastrophe of Israel barbaric bombing of the besieged cities is turning into a man made catastrophe like we have not seen before.

The military & oil industry are financing the hoax about man made climate change, because they get water for fracking by Climate Control!

The climate hoax is a DISTRACTION story from Geophysical Warfare by #CLIMATE #CONTROL!

Death at #TaylorSwift concert: it wasn't just the heat.
It was the heat on top of the profit making.

"According to concert-goers, screens covered vents in the usually airy stadium, seemingly to prevent people outside from getting a peek of the show.
The grass pitch was covered with metal sheeting which had heated up in the sun.

The audience were banned from bringing in their own food and #water; 300ml cups inside the venue were expensive and hard to get a hold of."

One office chair in better condition than the one I picked up a few years ago.

Two bikes Apollo brand, one good for refitting, one for spares.

One complete fish tank (without fish)

Spring brings out many things, and one of these is water. Melting snow from warming days finds its way into the rivers, and in a short amount of time, what is usually a bubbling stream turns into a rushing, raging river -- so powerful that it moves even boulders. Awesome.

" In other words, the elimination of Hamas from #Gaza is the fig leaf for clearing Gaza of all #Palestinians permanently. It would be impossible to resume #water supplies or operate a #hospital with no #electricity.

It’s been obvious this is the plan. The #Israelis are now making it official. So why are officials and pundits mincing words? "

and in smashing good #freshwater news

"Engineers designed a solar #desalination system that passively turns seawater into drinking water. It circulates water in swirling eddies which drives water to evaporate and leave salt behind. The resulting water vapor can be condensed and collected while the leftover salt circulates out of the device.

A small suitcase-sized system could produce up to 6 litres of #drinking #water per hour and last several years."
