The tiger was doing what tigers do. It’s in his nature to attack, which is why the zoo should have had a tranq gun at the ready at all times. The tiger doesn’t deserve to die, and euthanasia isn’t the right call. The man who jumped inside the enclosure shouldn’t have died either.

This morning’s Texas sunrise From last night’s sunset to this morning’s sunrise. The world will get noisy fast on a Monday, but the light keeps showing up anyway. Here’s a breath of fresh air to start the week.
Tonight’s Texas sunset Why do I share photos online? In a world swimming with buzzwords, deeply flawed leaders, and a resulting despair, I feel like we could all use a little beauty and hope. For me, it’s not just about the art—although art is a lofty goal. I share them in hopes of giving one single person a breath of fresh air. If even one person feels their burden lightened by an image, I’ve reached my goal. If one of my photos ever gives you a little inspiration, please take a second to pass it along to someone who needs it today. Love y’all. - Lance

We took a road trip to Colorado and after staying at the historic and haunted St. James Hotel in Cimarron, New Mexico, Great Sand Dunes National Park & Preserve was our first stop in Colorado. Read more here: travels.bluecouchstudios.com…

Great Sand Dunes National Park & Treasure Falls We took a road trip to Colorado and Great Sand Dunes National Park & Preserve was our first stop in Colorado. The dune field covers over 30 square miles, with dunes reaching up to 750 feet (the tallest in North America). @carrieeorton

I don’t know what’s ahead regarding the allegations that led to the arrests of Seth & Heather Day. They have the right in this country to be heard by a jury and tried in court. But I know this: There’s one fiercely brave girl who defied the odds, broke the family code, marched her bruised body forward and TOLD. God bless that child, heal that child, restore that child and raise that child into one astonishingly mighty woman of faith.

The moment the situation became dishonest is the moment $1200 ceased to be enough for my help
My flight was overbooked by three seats. The gate agent offered $1,200 in travel credit to anyone willing to take the next flight. I volunteered immediately. I wasn’t in a rush. I figured $1,200 was $1,200. They put me on a flight four hours later. I grabbed food and waited. Then I checked the airline app. My original flight was still showing three seats available. I thought that was strange. I asked the gate agent.

While the Callaway ad was horrific, we have been blessed with the good fortune of asshats saving us some work and outing themselves right here on Al Gore’s internet.🙌🏻

This guy has been parked at the 1200 block of Tulane Street in the Heights for two days now. Looks like he’s impersonating the police? Isn’t that illegal? To be fair, he did wave at me when I walked out to my car. Lol. @houstonpolice

There’s no evidence that this bears any truth. None. BUT if it did, she should still have been killed, right?
Why is no one talking about the “Minnesota mom” not having custody of all her kids? Renee Goods lesbian partner likes putting cigarettes out on her kids arms! Does that sound like a great mom?

I am a law abiding citizen. I think rules and order are 100% necessary for a successful life. I live structure and definition. However, I will never, under any circumstances, obey an order if anyone screams at me “get the f*** out of the car!” Not doing it. I will defy.
