Well, the wee garden is under way for the year. Some raised beds are tilled and fertilized with composted cow poo, and covered, awaiting plants. 🪴 Others got the same treatment, but are now holding lettuce, spinach, kale, shallots, and dill. The season of growing has officially begun! Yay!

In case you were wondering, this is what women astronauts look like. People who studied & trained to bring information back from space for the benefit of humanity. Heroines like Christa McAuliffe. Not some spoiled oligarch’s glorified 13 minute bachelorette billed as a, “huge moment for women.”🙄

I think JD “I wear jeans when I ski” Vance and Commander Fred Waterford from Handmaid’s Tale are the same dude.
I have never once seen them in the same place at the same time.
Discuss amongst yourselves.

Just a fair warning that if you roll up to me and say, “Deus Vult,” in any context, it’s going to earn you a punch in the junk.
I’m a bit salty about this between the House passing the SAVE Act (with the help of 4 Democrats) today, and Christofascist White Nationalist lunatics like this:

Majorie Taylor Greene has all the hallmarks of that girl in school who would do or say anything to be popular. She keeps voting for the pain and suffering of others, thinking it will never touch her because she is “special & protected.” 🪡🧵

Now is that time of early spring where I want to dig in the dirt and plan my garden, make all the art and upcycled clothing, and simultaneously traipse off to a magical woodland circus to be a wild thing.

I want to read books created by real people, not AI horseshit.
HarperCollins offered their authors a deal: $2,500 for the right to use their books to train AI. This is gross on so many levels, not the least of which is offering an obscenely tiny amount of money to train something TO REPLACE YOU.

Doing some herb work this late afternoon into the gloaming with wee green friends that I grew with my own hands.
It’s very satisfying and peaceful to love the land and my home in this way.
And my hands smell *delicious*.

All I want to do is make art, wear snuggly sweaters, & drink tea under fuzzy blankets with my cat. Maybe take a walk in the woods in the sun, or see friends who also want to make art & read books. My nervous system is already done with this BS, and it’s not even January.
