One of Twitter’s top lawyers who played a key role in the platform’s decision to ban Donald Trump and its actively playing down the Hunter Biden laptop scandal has been called out for her political bias by Elon Musk. Vijaya Gadde, 47, originally moved to the States as a child from India with her family. She claims she experienced racist abuse as an Indian child growing up in Texas and that her father had to get permission from the Ku Klux Klan to work as a door-to-door insurance salesman.

Charcoal has been made for centuries and used for many things such as art, medicine, and makeup, but it was most important for blacksmiths as it was used for fuel to smelt metals. It is produced by heating wood with little to no oxygen in order to remove all the water. It is created whenever combustion is incomplete. Additionally, charcoal was a part of a mixture for black powder. Charcoal has a very high surface area, so it’s very useful as a filter or an absorbent for water filtration. It’s easy to see the possible useful applications in a survival…
A summer spent by the banks of the river lazily relaxing in the summer sun, soaking up the heat, the humidity, and the vitamin D. The memories of easy days aren’t complete without an old-fashioned cane pole for fishing with and a prize fish to bring home for dinner. Cane poles have been around for a couple hundred years. A man fishing on the Neches River, 1930s. A cane pole, some worms …isn’t it amazing how, when you reduce life to its basic elements, it doesn’t take much to make us happy? pic.twitter.com/LCh3wHqUJ8 — Traces of Texas (@TracesofTexas) September 27,…

In most states snares and traps are illegal unless in a survival situation. This will be a short brief overview with plenty of resources linked to for further research. Snaring is especially useful for catching animals for…
NOTE: This is satire, not a statement of fact. Treat it as such. Things took an awkward turn in the White House on Thursday, when members of the White House Committee on Stopping Drug Use, an organization that hasn’t really been paid much attention, released a new ad about the dangers of drug use. While relatively tolerable to both Democrats and Republicans, given its focus on the need to have understanding when dealing with drug users and their addictions while also highlighting the dangers of drug addiction and the ravages of the cartels, the advertisement drove the White House crazy,…
NOTE: This is satire, not a statement of fact. Treat it as such. It’s been a long, worrisome day at the White House. Why? Because Slow Joe went missing and no one has been able to find him despite hours of searching. An anonymous insider, leaking details about the situation to us, had this to say: “So here’s what happened: we were having a fine morning, trying to deal with whatever Joe said incorrectly yesterday while managing what Psaki was going to say about the crises abroad, the inflation crisis, and the general disaster zone at the border. “That was…
NOTE: This is satire, not fact. Treat it as such. It was a rough day for Slow Joe Biden and his team at the White House. Why? Because when trying to give a speech on American vitality and weathering the storm of world events, Biden dozed off. The camera kept rolling and he was utterly humiliated. Biden, speaking about how America can make it through the current crisis, said: “It’s no big deal, Jack. It’s no big deal. This is America! If you gotta pay some more for some blueberries so we can do the thing over there with the…
NOTE: This is satire, not a statement of fact. Treat it as such. Elon Musk, after having spent $44 billion dollars to buy Twitter, decided to do the best thing possible and just delete it for good, making the last post on the platform “the dumpster fire has been extinguished” and then logging off and deleting the service. The move was widely applauded by everyone except for the ~10,000 grifters who were only popular because they did a good job stealing other people’s ideas and posting them on Twitter to much acclaim from bots they bought to make it look…
It’s been a long time since the Rosebud Sioux nation in South Dakota, US, started gathering buffalo on the Wolakota Buffalo Range. Two years to be exact, and now the herd is upwards of 750 animals and the tribe hopes this will help to grow to 1,200 by 2023.

These tribes currently manage around 55 herds across 19 states, as indicated…
Here we go again, America. Radical social justice activists have been successful in advancing social engineering in segments of our society that would comply with their unattainable pursuit of a societal Utopia. Gone from the college campus, late night talk shows, and recent movies is humor based on the differences between communities, etc. NASCAR, The National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing, is the most recent organization to bend its collective knees to the “woke”, antiracist mob. They have just ordered driver Denny Hamlin to attend sensitivity training after he posted a video on Twitter. In a now-deleted tweet, Hamlin…
Cops had come to a standstill in a search to find a missing grandmother but finally located the body of the missing woman and were able to charge two suspects with her murder thanks to the help of a quackingly clever duck. The Buncombe County Sherriff’s Office had been attempting to find 90-year-old Nellie Sullivan since December 2020, immediately declaring the circumstances around the case as “suspicious” and expecting foul play – pardon the pun! “Since the beginning of this investigation we have sought to locate Ms. Sullivan’s remains, afford her the respect she deserved and restore dignity to the…

Due to a most generous donation, one California Police Department will be paying it forward for the whole year to come. As part of the Oceanside Police Department’s Random Acts of Kindness Project, every month officers center around an alternate way to assist strangers in their local community.
