Making everyone’s children a lot less safe with all his bat-shit crazy bullshit. It’s refreshing to see an effective confrontation on the facts. His lies are off the charts; 77 doses WTH. Goddamn this country is going to hit rock bottom fast.

A few more from the 6.5 mile trek yesterday. The aromatics of late summer here was divine. Stretches of ferns, grasses, wildflowers, and blueberry bushes. Looped at the cave where a raven was calling nearby and spotted a baby spruce that caught my heart. 💚 Treasure. Mapping today’s hike now…🥾

Like meditation except that it’s very much a tuned in and way up loud kind of experience. 🎧🧘♀️ Lowers blood pressure, reminds you to breathe, restores the soul, so many health benefits for the heart. 💗

Just a reminder that the pizzagate pedophile conspiracy theory was not so much of an accusation but actually an upfront confession with many clogged arteries of projection. Has someone drawn up the cartoon yet or pitched it for South Park? 😂

Underlying this kind of Democratic messaging is an assumption that we care about narrow self-interest. It's a withered sense of human nature resulting in withered messaging. Lots who Dems can reach care about justice, human rights, truth, the rule of law, the protection of nature...

I think, since I was five years old, and someone first explained to me the story of Jesus, and what was done to him, that I’ve never fully trusted another person unless I could sense that they also walked with the pain of knowing what our species is capable of inflicting upon each other, and on that

Still sitting out and drinking my coffee and a female ruby-throated hummingbird comes within inches of my head, like she’s looking for a drink and hovers around me for several seconds. Those tiny powerhouse wings are like a purring engine. I have literally never been so close to one. Pretty bird. 💗
Amy (@anymaygarden.bsky.social)
Sitting out on my front porch and bird just gently flew up to my porch and rested a moment on my leg as a perch. I had just enough time to register surprise 😮 and it flew to the shrub next to me. It came back to flutter gently near my face before leaving again. I think we were both surprised. 💗

🤣 I once got into an argument with someone like this after I replied to Mark Ruffalo back when I used Twitter and they immediately went all “this is why women should’t vote” on me. If their strategy is to increase the birthrate so they don’t wind up the minority race, they didn’t think it through.

If you voted thinking let’s just try the drop tower experience, I’m genuinely concerned. What happened to you? Do you have supportive people in your life but are they misogynist racist eugenicists? Also, please don’t use the I voted for morality and religious values card, because nope.

would it be the constant tilt-a-wheel cyclone of terrible that we’re in right now? Is this the amusement park ride some people thought they were voting for? Or is it an escape room experience that (surprise) morphs into a human trafficking, felony imports and embezzlement of taxpayers enterprise.

Besides the humanitarian and emotional toll this poses, just wait until these workers realize the risk they themselves face regarding their own personal health. Tuberculosis and other contagion are primed for this exact scenario.
