Oh My Goodness, One Of Dian Fosseys First Close Up Observations With Gorillas Happened When She Was Trying

oh my goodness, one of dian fossey’s first close up observations with gorillas happened when she was trying to climb a tree to see them better, but so badly that by the time she’d gotten up the entire group had come out of hiding to look at her: “Nearly all members of the group had totally exposed themselves, forgetting about hiding coyly behind foliage screens because it was obvious to them that the observer had been distracted by tree-climbing problems, an activity they could understand.”

my personal argument for open borders is really simple it just boils down to "i believe restricting human movement and barring certain people from certain places on this earth is a human rights violation"

In the last precious few hours I can post this

Really want to buy a higher-quality face mask (I’ve been using a cloth one with the disposable filters, which wasn’t an issue when most people were masking, but now that no one is I’d like something more comparable to KN95 quality to keep me safe as an immunocompromised person who can’t avoid going out) soooo anybody want a papercraft piece? Complete by end of August? 🥺👉👈
