“I’m not gay, but…”

Huh.

SUNRISE TO SUNSET AT GRAND CANYON - ARIZONA

National Park Week - April 20-28, 2013

There is no better place to accidentally find yourself during the National Park Service’s free week than the second most visited park, Grand Canyon.

With nearly 5 million visitors a year, Grand Canyon is as good for its people watching as it is for the view itself.  You can go a long time without hearing a single word of English, but easily make out that everyone has the same mix of marvel and disbelief as they walk up the trail to Mather Point and catch their first glimpse of the South Rim.

The dark pines of the Kaibob National Forest conceal the Grand Canyon of the Colorado till the rim is reached. There, spread out for seemingly endless miles, is an ocean of color. From misty blue depths rise gigantic islands of crimson sandstone. Their undulating bands of red and purple grow softer in color and outline towards the horizon, where a single firm stroke seems to separate the rosy depths from the sky above. Its immensity is awful; the boldness of its contours overwhelming; its immobility terrifying.

—Arizona, The Grand Canyon State: A State Guide (WPA, 1940)

Guide Note: National Park Week occurs each spring.

Something has to give.

Do you mean to say that it’s decaying simply because it’s becoming more accepting of those that aren’t traditional?

Well, for starters, political correctness,…

Fun fact: 31% of bee colonies died last year! The highest it’s been in years!

no see lesbians are not more accepted than gay men they’re more sexualized please do not get those 2 things confused

I really don’t think either is “more accepted” than the other. That’s such a broad descriptor…I feel like each “group” is less accepted among different “types” of people, if that makes sense. (eg anecdotally speaking guys tend to be more hostile to gay men and girls tend to be more hostile to gay women).

And, I think both gay men and gay women are sexualized. You cannot pretend to have been on tumblr and not seen the sexualization of both.

A solitary bee drinks the tears from a yellow-spotted river turtle in Yasuní national park, Ecuador. The endangered yellow-spotted river turtle cannot easily brush them away while the solitary bee needs the sodium. The unusual interaction, believed to be the first time seen between these two animals, was captured by Dr Oliver Dangles | image by Olivier Dangles
