Aw, I understand. Hopefully, it clears up soon. Hugs
Got a funny from yesterday to share.
Yesterday while the ducklings and I were outside, our Black Australorp hen came over to see them and one of the ducklings kept nipping at her. She just stood there staring at me as if to say "Why are you allowing this puff ball to bite me?"

This happened when my hen was raising ducklings, they nibbled all the chicken´s feet and the chickens were like should I hate this?
I finally got a basket for my bike so now I don't have to overwork my arms when I buy my week's lunches from the store. My arms & hands are usually mostly numb and red from having to carry the bags so this basket make it easier. Plus, I can start riding my bike to the store again. Walmart actually delivered it so quick after I ordered it online. I ordered it earlier in the day and it just arrived at the door.
In case anyone is wondering, I usually walk 1.2 mile to the store and 1.2 mile back home.
Selling the duck eggs is going great for me! Been making some amazing profit from my regular customer.
Very soon I'll be getting a pride flag for my room so I'm really excited for that!

How did the Rainbow Flag become a symbol of LGBTQ pride?

June has long been recognized as LGBTQ Pride Month, in honor of the Stonewall riots, which took place in New York City in June 1969. During Pride Month, it is not uncommon to see the rainbow flag being proudly displayed as a symbol for the LGBTQ rights movement. But how did that flag become a symbol of LGBTQ pride?
It goes back to 1978, when the artist Gilbert Baker, an openly gay man and a drag queen, designed the first rainbow flag. Baker later revealed that he was urged by Harvey Milk, one of the first openly gay elected officials in the U.S., to create a symbol of pride for the gay community. Baker decided to make that symbol a flag because he saw flags as the most powerful symbol of pride. As he later said in an interview, “Our job as gay people was to come out, to be visible, to live in the truth, as I say, to get out of the lie. A flag really fit that mission, because that’s a way of proclaiming your visibility or saying, ‘This is who I am!’” Baker saw the rainbow as a natural flag from the sky, so he adopted eight colors for the stripes, each color with its own meaning (hot pink for sex, red for life, orange for healing, yellow for sunlight, green for nature, turquoise for art, indigo for harmony, and violet for spirit).
The first versions of the rainbow flag were flown on June 25, 1978, for the San Francisco Gay Freedom Day parade. Baker and a team of volunteers had made them by hand, and now he wanted to mass-produce the flag for consumption by all. However, because of production issues, the pink and turquoise stripes were removed and indigo was replaced by basic blue, which resulted in the contemporary six-striped flag (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet). Today this is the most common variant of the rainbow flag, with the red stripe on top, as in a natural rainbow. The various colors came to reflect both the immense diversity and the unity of the LGBTQ community.
