Wonder why the White House would have a Parkinson's expert visiting over the last year. Very suspicious stuff

This is the number one reason why I stopped even trying to date men. It’s exhausting and I’d rather be alone in my peace.

I’ve switched to Kagi and I’m happy with it. I was skeptical because it’s paid, about five bucks a month, but there are no ads and no sponsored links, just relevant results. It’s worth the cost for me.

There are other search engines. Try Ecosia, Start Page or Kagi, to name a few.

Bring out your pollinators! Got any flowers around? Who's visiting them, besides you? Please share your bees, wasps, flies, hummingbirds, beetles and anybody who's pollinating!

Here's a hoverfly on Pickerel Weed in my little pond.

The first thing I do is step outdoors and express gratitude for whatever good things are happening at the moment and then set my intentions for the day. I say this out loud to the universe at large. It sets a good tone for the day. And I have to take my dog outside then anyway 🐕

We gotta take a second to gas up Stormy Daniels, a sex worker who put her career and life on the line by going public about this to try and save us all from Trump's presidency while being shamed and harassed. It's been a long time coming, Stormy, and I hope you're having a GREAT FUCKING DAY.

Seeing a lot of "this story is depressing not inspiring!" And yeah. Here's an actually inspiring story you may not know about: school lunch (and breakfast!) in Massachusetts is free for all students starting in 23-24 thanks to Democrats using money from the voter-passed millionaire's tax to fund it

Bringing back my diagram that started when I was teaching chordates zoology and then evolved into a standalone poster because it was so popular. This is why some turtles can't breathe when their head is retracted. 🐢🦎

Any #permaculture folk out here? I have this old locust tree stump that I’d like to use as a base for a hügelkultur bed. I’ve been cutting and dropping the numerous sprouts that keep popping up. Thinking to add a layer of soil, then wood chips. Wondering what plants would do well in this situation🌿🌱
