38 of the 43.

"38 of 43 experts cut last month from boards that review science and research in NIH laboratories are female, Black or Hispanic.

"The scientists typically serve five-year terms and were not given a reason for their dismissal..."

Finding peace where we can.

#rainbow #ocean #clouds #peacefulplaces
Wet beach at low tide with a peaceful ocean is lapping on the beach. Some sea birds are scouting the wet beach. Blue sky with low white clouds above the ocean. A small bit of rainbow is extending from the cloud bank to the ocean.

Mood today. (Digital art my spouse created for me)
#digitalart #art #arachnid #spider #resist
Digital art piece with a close up of a brown and black striped jumping spider staring at you, light green background, and words with a patterned red font. The words say, “I will break all 8 of my feet off in your ass…”. With the artist’s signature of ‘Fuson’.

Wishing you a beautiful day.

There are trees and shrubs reflecting sunlight in the foreground. They form a framework. In the background are misty hills covered in trees and beautiful clouds against a light blue sky.

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado.

11,000 people showed up.

Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

That is both messed up and disgraceful! You can’t just delete history!

Arlington National Cemetery has removed information about prominent Black, Hispanic, and female service members, as well as topics such as the Civil War, from its website.

One of the most interesting fungus growths I have ever found.

#fungifriends #mushrooms #fungus #nature
Green fungus with a woody stalk growing out of the forest floor. Leaves, sticks, and thick forest detritus all around.

Shining spiral slowly attaining their goal.
Top view of a small red and black snail with a reddish orange, yellow, and black shell. It’s making it’s way on aged tarmac with some evergreen and moss detritus laying on the ground.

Never stop looking up.

#ocean #birdsky #clouds #sunset #coast
Puddles of water on a rocky coast in Oregon in the foreground. Ocean waves are breaking on the rocks in small sprays. Ocean waves in the background. The sun’s rays are shining around drifting clouds in the sky. A passing sea bird is silhouetted against the clouds.
