Dear Anti-Zionist Jews

From Badempanada's BlueSky:

"Two tenets Jewish anti-Zionists need to uphold to be anything but a detriment:

1) Just be a normal anti-Zionist. Don't tell everyone you're Jewish constantly. It reinforces jewish exceptionalism

2) Don't screech about the fake anti-Semitism rise, and especially don't police the movement for it

Also, you should not even hesitate about completely disassociating from Zionists. Religion, culture, or community do not justify you breaking bread and praying alongside ethnonationalists and IDF veterans.

Your own sense of community is not more important than principles

You do not get to dictate to the anti-Zionist movement. You follow. If you consider yourself so special that you cannot accept being one of the crowd, then just go."

"Muslims shouldn't be expected to denounce ISIS because barely any of them support it and ISIS' victims are overwhelmingly Muslims.

Happy Pigeon Appreciation Day 🕊

(Text Source: Holidayinsights.com):

Without a doubt, many of you who read about this holiday initially think "What a dirty bird. Why do we have Pigeon Appreciation Day?" After you finish reading this article, you will likely become a fan of pigeons and celebrate this June 13 holiday. For example, we will describe to you how a single pigeon is credited with saving the lives of 194 American servicemen during World War I. That alone is a reason to celebrate pigeons in my book.

Pigeons get a bad rap, largely because there are so many of them on city streets scrounging for a free meal. But they are not dirty birds and do not spread disease as some believe. Pigeons are entertaining to watch. Just sit on a park bench and watch them in action. And while you are watching, feed them. Chances are they will remember you the next time you sit on a park bench. They remember the hand that feeds them.

Perhaps the best example of how people love pigeons is in the movie Mary Poppins (1964). In the movie, she is the nanny for two children who go on to feed the birds as Mary Poppins sings "Feed the Birds, Tuppence a Bag". Do you know what those birds were? You guessed it, pigeons.

New T Rex just dropped 😄

Happy National Cougar Day

National Cougar Day is held on June 12th each year and was first established in 2019 to promote the conservation of cougars, their importance as a keystone species, and the threats to their survival.

The cougar is the biggest of all the small cats, with subspecies across the Americas. Its Latin name is Puma concolor, and it’s known in different parts of the world as a puma, panther, and mountain lion.

Cougars are affected by trophy hunting, factory farming, commercial exploitation, and climate change. So, National Cougar Day is the perfect day to learn more about these issues and support cougar conservation efforts.

Happy International Lynx Day 😄

International Lynx Day takes place on Thursday, 11 June 2026, raising awareness of the world's four lynx species and the conservation challenges they face.

The day shines attention on these elusive wild cats, from the critically recovering Iberian lynx to the snow-adapted Canada lynx, and encourages support for the projects working to protect them.

What is International Lynx Day?:

International Lynx Day is an annual conservation observance dedicated to the lynx, a genus of medium-sized wild cats recognised by their short tails, large furred paws, and distinctive tufted ears.

The day was created to highlight the threats lynx face in the wild, including habitat loss, road collisions, and illegal hunting, and to celebrate the conservation work that has brought some populations back from the brink.

It is marked by zoos, wildlife organisations, and conservation projects across Europe and beyond.
