Honestly, it’s irresponsible to treat Trump supporters in any way that suggests their actions and views are excusable. The ones you know, shame in both public and private. Shun them. Large-scale social enforcement works. Bigots’ going unrebuked is why we’re in this mess.
The deluge of desperate, whining pleas from so many Trump supporters circulating right now to not “bully” them, to extend them respect as though they didn’t just vote to strip it alongside actual, tangible rights away from masses of people, essentially to coddle their consciences and pretend their vote wasn’t a vote for injustice itself—this is evidence that enforcing accountability via social means WORKS, and plenty of these assholes are indeed afraid of it.
Could you specify what rights that Trump has threatened?
Yeah, sure.
“Sealioning is the name given to a specific, pervasive form of aggressive cluelessness, that masquerades as a sincere desire to understand.
A Sealion is a person who, when confronted with a fact that they don’t care to acknowledge, say, the persistence of systemic racism in America, will ask endlessly for ‘proof’ and insist that it is the other person’s job to stop everything they are doing and address the issue to their satisfaction.
Sealions are just ‘asking nicely’ but they are asking questions that have been asked and answered fully many times, and are unwilling to so much as open a tab to look up the answer, nor will they recognize the validity of your sources, your experience or expertise.”
Kryptopterus vitreolus, known in the aquarium trade traditionally as the glass catfish and also as the ghost catfish or phantom catfish, is a small species of Asian glass catfish.
It is endemic to Thailand, where found in rivers south of the Isthmus of Kra that drain into the Gulf of Thailand and river basins in the Cardamom Mountains.
Okay first off I want to express how much I freaking love marimo okay like if they had the ability to do even the tiniest thing on their own they would be my favorite thing in the world. I love them.
On that note, there is nothing that makes me as sad as a marimo dying.
Marimo are kind of the pet rock or even bonsai tree of the hobby. They’re a bit expensive, but I’ll tell you what, the one you have is quite likely to be older than you! They grow VERY VERY slowly, and are known to live for hundreds of years! Having one die to me is much like felling a sequoia redwood.
They’re also called cladophora, and get “Marimo” from the Japanese, which is where most are from. They’re actually not a moss, but an adorable little algae that has been rolled up by minimal currents so that no matter which way it’s laying, it gets an even amount of light. This means they like to have a little current, but do just fine if you swirl them in a jar (where they can happily live) every few days.
They prefer colder water, so I don’t recommend keeping them in a betta or tropical tank. If that’s what you would like to do, go ahead as I believe they’re safe with any fish (except maybe goldfish and other heavy herbivores but don’t quote me on that)- just make sure you take them out once a week or so and give them a chill in the fridge!
A lot of sources say they like low light, but I’ve had them thrive in vibrant windowsills or higher light tanks. Just keep an eye on it- the brighter green the happier it is.
Others say they love an occasional seltzer bath, but I’ve never attempted one.
In short:
Love and cherish the innocent things
Give them cool water (or occasionally refrigerate them)
Low-ish light
Any container with clean, dechlorinated water (with weekly water changes)
Friend to all, especially shrimp and axolotl
I hope this was what you’re looking for!
Have a wonderful day!!!
