My brother is a Forest Ranger and works with Smokejumpers. He was actually flown in last year to help in the huge fires of the Pacific Northwest. He has said on many occasion those men and women are some of the most selfless and caring individuals you will ever find who know they are doing an extremely dangerous job…

What no note in Old Norse that translates to “We have been trying to contact you on your Horse’s extended warranty.” I am heartbroken.

If its making him extra bucks and he is not bothering me or IDing me on camera....have at it.

Stupid White GOP’er in Florida behaves exactly how you expect him too...

I don’t know enough about the book to know if any parts (not the mob in the forest) was inspired by real events, but smokejumping is one of the most dangerous professions and becoming more prevalent with the increased drought in the west. A friend of my family’s, a Forest Service smokejumper named Tom Hart died last…

Kinja is being a piece of shit again today, so for people in the greys who earnestly think Instagram-beekeeping fluff is going to lead to scads of ignorant people rushing out to acquire a hive and end up hurting bees: haha, no. Check out the cost of starting up as a beekeeper. Bees alone will cost you a couple hundred…

Just wait until your millenial plumber starts shooting a tiktok while snaking your pipes.

I defy anyone to explain what the modern day GOP has actually done for anyone other than cause hardship and suffering for people who aren’t rich, straight, white CEOs and the companies they run.  

Even if every single accusation was true, I still don’t find that a big deal? This is her full-time job, she wants to make money off of social media, she’s going to make it pretty?? This is like having a problem with the fact that artists only show a few glimpses of their art process on Instagram or Tiktok. No one is…

As a native Texan, the only people who can claim to be a “Proud” Texan are some kind of piece of shit or another. There ain’t nothing going on here to be proud of right now.

Counterpoint: If someone goes above moving hives of bees based only on what they saw on a few social media videos, we should not be particularly concerned for their welfare.

If I had to guess, I’d say because the sneakerhead sub-culture is a billion dollar industry...the rarer, the better and if these get pulled before reaching production, they’re likely to become just that, possibly making them a collector item holy grail.

I do not get the ire for Erika Thompson. In my experience, almost every beekeeper has a different level of what they’re comfortable with, and some of them go into a hive with very little protection. As for the Trump-supporter claim, I’ve never seen/heard anything corroborating that, and her account shows her donating…

I’d have some concern that her fans might decide to try it themselves, dress and act as she does, and get injured/dead (many people are allergic but may not know it).

It’s like someone calling out a plumber because he is ‘too sexy’ when snaking a toilet clog.

Especially after they axed the VP whose son was reselling product he shouldn’t have been able to get his hands on. Someone in product security is going to have to answer a lot of hard questions.

I like those bee videos. It doesn’t inspire me to handle swarms of insects barehanded.

500 a pop?  You can literally feel him tapping his foot maniacally and refreshing the app to let a few words fall out of his gob for some moron.

(meanwhile, on the low, he’s secretly thinking “go on...”)
