Gjddhkv i was just standing up from my final p*ss of the evening and i saw my tampon string and i was like ahhhhh thats why i cried about martha the last passenger pigeon at work today

quoms:

RECORDĀ has obtained what appears to be a preliminary draft of the [executive] order, under which the White House would require rewriting the Guiding Principles for Federal Architecture, issued in 1962, to ensure that ā€œthe classical architectural style shall be the preferred and default styleā€ for new and upgraded federal buildings. Entitled ā€œMaking Federal Buildings Beautiful Again,ā€ the draft order argues that the founding fathers embraced the classical models of ā€œdemocratic Athensā€ and ā€œrepublican Romeā€ for the capital’s early buildings because the style symbolized the new nation’s ā€œself-governing idealsā€ (never mind, of course, that it was the prevailing style of the day).

The draft decries the quality of architecture under the General Service Administration’sĀ (GSA) Design Excellence Program for its failure to re-integrate ā€œour national values into Federal buildingsā€ which too often have been ā€œinfluenced by Brutalism and Deconstructivism.ā€ The draft document specifically cites theĀ U.S. Federal BuildingĀ in San FranciscoĀ (2007, by Morphosis), theĀ U.S. CourthouseĀ in Austin, Texas (2012, by Mack Scogin Merrill Elam Architects), and the Wilkie D. Ferguson, Jr. U.S. Courthouse in Miami (2007, by Arquitectonica) for having ā€œlittle aesthetic appeal.ā€ […]

The original Guiding Principles, written by the late Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan, mandated that Federal architecture ā€œmust provide visual testimony to the dignity, enterprise, vigor, and stability of the American government.ā€ The draft document uses the same words—dignity, enterprise, vigor and stability—while declaring that Brutalist and Deconstructivist styles ā€œfail to satisfy these requirements and shall not be used.ā€

The red and white giant flying squirrel (Petaurista alborufus) is a species of rodent in the squirrel family native to China and Taiwan. They spend their days sleeping in a tree hollow, emerging at night to forage in the trees. Their diet consists primarily of nuts and fruits, but also includes leafy vegetation, insects and their larvae. Like other species of flying squirrel, they can move between trees by gliding as far as 1300 feet.
