no sport on a dead planet! and in the meantime, climate change is making sports worse! i’m old enough to remember when multiple professional sports teams cancelled matches due to forest fire smoke in the northeastern US (last month)

I was asked if I was prepared for a “No” result; I said we already live in “No”. We’ve been told “No” for 200+ years. The High Court told Yorta-Yorta “No” in 2002; I was there. I’d sooner try “Yes” or even, “Of Course”.

Mathematical proof: wombats are perfect. ❤️ From their noses to their rumps, wombats perfectly fit the golden ratio. A wombat's bum is extremely hard and is their biggest weapon. They can use their bum to block their burrow and potentially to crush predators! #WombatWednesday
