Late Stage Capitalism in the USA (---)
CNN Money posted this article:
"Almost half of US families can't afford basics like rent and food"
In the article they go on to clarify:
"The economy may be chugging along, but many Americans are still struggling to afford a basic middle class life."
> basics like rent and food
> basic middle class life
Guess what, folks! "Middle Class" now apparently means "not homeless and able to feed yourself!"
(destroy capitalism)

wildlife rehab: baby bird feeding (training edition)
I got to hand-feed a couple of juncos and robin fledglings, I learned about crops, and I skipped the paperwork and t-shirt session at the end because done that, got one. :D all the raccoons and bear cubs have been released, btw, and the bobkittens are scheduled for release Friday! right now they've got a couple of short-tailed weasels which I will probably never get to glimpse. XD
