it’s so racist that the “black holidays” are eliminated but Columbus Day remains.
Free-entry days at Yosemite and other national parks will see major changes next year, as the Trump administration removes free entry on MLK Day and Juneteenth — and adds Trump’s birthday instead.

You are ABSOLUTELY NOT going to regret listening to this bird:
A male rock ptarmigan (Lagopus muta) in winter plumage.
Ptarmigan is from Gaelic 'tarmachan' meaning "croaker". The p- was added when people mistakenly assumed it was a Greek word.
A bird forever warning people: "A werewolf!" (just in case of werewolves).
