Bird's Foot Violet

Viola pedata

Named after its leaves which resemble a bird's foot... This gorgeous violet is native to a large portion of eastern North America and thrives in sandy areas, rocky slopes, and other sunny, very well-drained habitats that are undisturbed. Three different color varieties can be found in the wild; bicolor (pictured above), lilac, and white. I have found both the bicolor and solid lilac varieties in abundance within glades and some prairies here in Missouri. Additionally, this species hosts fritillary butterfly larvae and provides nectar to many other butterflies and bees.

you almost can’t make this shit up.

the police drive their SUV into a gay couples place of business and then proceeds to arrest one of them for refusing to show identification. allegedly they were swerving to avoid a dog which totally exists

what kind of shit is this.

Yall remember how Texas had that "report an abortion" form that they had to take down after a week?

Well, Missouri has one, only it's for reporting transgender concerns.

Comrades. Friends. Romans. Countrymen. You know what to do.

KC continues to make me proud.

Simplified explaination: the city gov has refused to comply with any gender affirming care ban, like the one the MO state government is on track to pass.

I will not be surprised if Jeff City tries to nullify or overturn this. Or simply penalize the metro in other ways.

But even if that happens... even if they succeed... the simple fact that this passed by a near-unanimous vote sends a clear message.

It sends a message to non-cis residents that the city is on their side.

And it sends a message to the rest of the nation that resistance is still alive in red states.

At 12 I was still reading The Babysitter’s Club books and thought I was mature because I got tired of Barbie dolls.

Sex was kind of an idea. I knew fine well babies weren’t made by a bird flying in and giving you a baby. I was aware of things.

But it still utterly unthinkable to me that anyone thinks a 12 year girl could get married and do *that* and be psychologically fine.

Why is this man not on a watch list?

Fire Pink

Silene virginica

A perennial catchfly native to central and eastern North America. The bright, fiery red flowers attract ruby-throated hummingbirds to pollinate them, and sticky sepals and stems on the plant act as a trap for small insects trying to climb up it, hence the name "catchfly" for plants in this genus. It prefers somewhat dry soils and part-sun, so it can be found on rocky slopes in open woodlands, savannas, and other similar habitats.

I found this fire pink growing in open, rocky woods near blackjack oaks and other drought-tolerant species.

bro i am losing my fucking mind i live in a clown state what the fuck is this shit

The Missouri Republican Civil War continues to escalate as a member of the Freedom Caucus faction has filed a proposed rule change to allow Senators to challenge an “offending senator to a duel.”

...

"SENATE RESOLUTION NO. _ Notice of Proposed Rule Change Notice is hereby given by the Senator from the 2nd District of the one day notice required by the rule of intent to put a motion to adopt the following rule change: BE IT RESOLVED by the Senate of the One Hundred and Second General Assembly, Second Regular Session, that the Senate Rules be amended to read as follows: "Rule 103. If a senator's honor is impugned by another senator to the point that it is beyond repair and in order for the offended senator to gain satisfaction, such senator may rectify the perceived insult to the senator's honor by challenging the offending senator to a duel. The trusted representative, known as the second, of the offended senator shall send a written challenge to the offending senator. The two senators shall agree to the terms of the duel, including choice of weapons, which will be witnessed and enforced by their respective seconds. The duel shall take place in the well of the senate at the hour of high noon on the date agreed to by the parties to the duel."
