Voting in cities is crazy. Like hours long wait times, you have to be very determined to vote. In person voting is much easier in less densely populated areas. Cities tend to be more liberal.
telling colleagues that he was "very glad [he] wrote the note" and that Epstein "...was obsessed with girls (like every other unmarried billionaire in Manhattan; in fact, like every other heterosex[ual] male), and if I hadn't said what I did in that letter ten-odd years ago, he would certainly have called me & asked for a lot more aesthetic detail. (This is how men behave.)
I'm so sorry, that really sucks. Was it generic shipping or did you have it certified mail? It sounds like you really need to get to the embassy, they should be able to help.
Have you tried calling the last place it was at? And it never hurts to let your fear, panic, sadness show. You need an inside person to try to track it down
The white chickens are usually for meat, like a cornish cross, and they are typically caged. The one in the video looks to be free range and definitely not a cornish cross.
No they can actually fly, it's just most birds are encouraged not to by their enclosure. So they simply don't have the muscles to get much air. If you were to take the time to build up those muscles they would be able to fly.
No, they can actually fly. Chickens bred and kept for meat have trouble flying, but that is because they are too heavy for that very reason. Or they were kept in an enclosure that they could not exercise their wings. They don't have the muscles to get off the ground. Parrots kept in a too small cage without being let out have the same problem. They could fly if they were allowed to build up those muscles.
They are ground birds so they spend most of their time on the ground, similar to turkeys and grouse. Domesticated chickens fly a bit less because of breeding for more meat. However, to say they can't fly is just not true. A better choice would have been; a kiwi, steamer ducks, cassowary, kakapo, weka, takahe, or an emu.
Ok, I'm just going to add this here for everyone. Free range + not being a fast growing freak of nature breed = birds that perfer the ground but can absolutely fly.
Chickens flying
The same reasons dogs work for us. They are domesticated animals, selective breeding for thousands of years. Then training, teach them when they are young to do complex tasks. They then enjoy the tasks because it makes us happy. Think of sled dogs, or seeing eye dogs. Not exactly a natural thing for them, but once they are trained they really enjoy it.
That tongue!
