Space Karen’s company, Gapped Bass LLC, applied for this controversial permit and it went to public meeting this week
My vote is Elon for the upcoming Ides of March sacrifice

AT!Pollux and F!Mc as parents
You already know he’s the childish dad XD
But he’s really overprotective when he wants to and MC thinks it’s cute but Pollux kept denying it
The kind of dad that would go along with your mom scolding you but spoiling you rotten after (ofc w/o Mc’s knowing- hehe)
The type that would embarrass you in front of the school/friends
And he will enjoy every single bit of it until MC steps in (No fun-)
“come here buddy! It’s ok Papa’s got you”
Teaches C/n magic from time to time
Loves to play catch
Jealous of Arkcy because he’s C/n’s favorite uncle (go figure XD)
Always tries to one up’s C/n’s uncles and Mc is laughing the whole while
“Pollux c/n’s only a kid!”
He bought c/n a wand- keep out of reach-

Machinations
Who are you to break
my sought after tranquility.
Machinations of civilization
tainting the peace, our peace.
Breaker of silence; Helicopter
I resent you.
Destroyer of earth; Car
I resent you.
Spewer of poison; Plane
I resent you.
Disturber of mirrors; Ship
I resent you.
Tainting more than tranquility,
creatures built of greed
hell-bent on destruction.
A catastrophe for everything.
I. Resent. You.

those people who attempt to justify celebrities actions when they’re heavily polluting the environment by saying
“if you had the money you would do that too”
are so incredibly stupid
first of all that doesn’t justify the celebrities actions at ALL and also no not everyone would choose to spend that money polluting the environment and consuming excessively (so don’t just assume everyone would do those things because it 1. Makes you look dumb, and 2. Not everyone is as selfish as these celebrities)
also as celebrities with large amounts of money and followers they should be trying to cut their emissions and at least spread awareness since they have so much influence on others

Brown Rown looks forward to a day of play.
That large nose of his sure gets in the way.
A hanky danky is what he needs
to catch the kerchews he does sneeze.
Through a park and around a slide
he rides his bike with a map on his side.
Some trash is found along the way.
He picks it up throughout the day.
Brown Rown is a cute little guy who will teach your child to be mindful of the environment and pick up after themselves.

We're really gonna blame people with asthma for polluting the environment before we blame giant corporations and factories?

““The Great Pacific Garbage Patch can now be cleaned,” announced Dutch entrepreneur Boyan Slat, the wonderkid inventor who’s spent a decade inventing systems for waterborne litter collection.
Recent tests on his Ocean Cleanup rig called System 002, invented to tackle the 1.8 trillion pieces of plastic pollution, were a success, leading Slat to predict that most of the oceanic garbage patches could be removed by 2040.
Intersections of ocean currents have created the massive floating islands of plastic trash—five slow-moving whirlpools that pull litter from thousands of miles away into a single radius.
The largest one sits between California and Hawaii, and 27-year-old Slat has been designing and testing his systems out there, launching from San Francisco since 2013.
GNN has reported on his original design for the floating device, but his engineering team improved upon it. System 002, nicknamed “Jenny,” successfully netted 9,000 kilograms, or around 20,000 pounds in its first trial.
It’s carbon-neutral, able to capture microplastics as small as 1 millimeter in diameter, and was designed to pose absolutely no threat to wildlife thanks to its wide capture area, slow motion, alerts, and camera monitors that allow operators to spy any overly-curious marine life...
Slat estimates ten Jennies could clean half the garbage patch in five years, and if 10 Jennies were deployed to the five major ocean gyres, then 90% of all floating plastic could be removed by 2040.” -via Good News Network, 10/19/21
