Seed saving for Los Angeles fire victims on giant cookie trays right now. Here are breadseed poppies. If you have ANY seed you’d like to contribute, 📌and return next week - I’ll post the shipping address (not mine), distributing to both Altadena and Palisades. Coming up on the 1-year anniversary. 🌱

@jstpwalsh.bsky.social went to White Sands New Mexico & I got this plant-dyed cap embroidered with Protogygia Whitesandsensis - only discovered 2009 & exists no other place on earth. Most Protogygia live in habitats with sandy soils. ALL moths are critical pollinators, very few eat your sweaters. 🌱

Quick pop in to feed the bees!
I’m making the door smaller/easier to defend because honey bees will steal from one another if starving… and ALL pollinators in S. California starve August to January, because too little is blooming + climate warming = insects no longer getting a winter rest. 🌱

It’s time we get smarter about climate warming futures in cities surrounded by wild, dry vegetation, and I have some ideas. 🌱
During the Palisades fire, hydrants lost pressure and ran dry. A nearby reservoir was empty for repairs. After a review, state officials found that even if the reservoir had been full, the water system still would have been quickly overwhelmed and lost pressure. www.latimes.com/environment/...
Even a full reservoir wouldn't have ensured water in Palisades fire, California officials say

Finally, Dems do does something right. THANK you. @vetsaboutface.bsky.social is a resource to the enlisted for those that honor their constitution and won’t support the GOP Dictatorship’s ask for lawless inhumane terror on citizens.
When you have a lawless criminal and 5-time draft-dodging coward as commander-in-chief, it’s fair to remind our military not to obey UNLAWFUL orders.

We need to wake people up & call them out. Label this what it IS:
Trump’s/the GOP Dictatorship Terror Campaign.
NOT Ice, the Dictatorship’s ICE.
NOT “fascist, oligarch, autocracy, kleptocracy” (2-3 of the US and egg voters cannot define).
Volunteer. Donate. Print my FREE protest art. DO something

authors you have the chance to do the funniest thing right now
AI advocates have warned that if every author in the class action filed a claim, it would "financially ruin" the entire industry.
Authors celebrate “historic” settlement coming soon in Anthropic class action
Advocates fear such settlements will “financially ruin” the AI industry.

💦 Bees can’t fly if wet or too cold.
Without forager bees bringing in food (nectar AND pollen), there won’t be any to feed the eggs. So if the hive doesn’t have enough food stored, eggs will be eaten as a substitute as a source of protein young bees need for… (see comments) 🌱

This outburst is GREAT - what EVERYONE missed? It is typical for severe dementia. He is fraying. That they still let him speak is bonkers.

Los Angeles is getting two more days of rain and the skies are filled with beautiful puffy white cumulus nimbus… it’s going to be a spectacular sunset. Don’t forget to get outside for awe and wonder, reset. The real pink moment drama comes after the sun is completely down (most leave too early). 🌅 🌱

Feeding bees in the rain, because they don’t feed honey to eggs/babies they need nectar/nectar substitute. I was sad to find starving bees trying to sneak in hives flying in the rain to do so - soggy and not let in at doors, risking drowning. Pollinators are starved August-January in California.🌱

Darn, we may have to dig up the dahlias that normally bloom thru to January. Most years I can leave them and they’ll make it because we get so little rain, but if this is a prediction for cool and more rain to come, their tuber “root” they grow from will turn to mush like a potato. :( 🌱
La Nina is here and the global cool-down is well underway (global mean sea surface temps are lowest since March 2023).
Remember it's not the individual ups & downs that matter, it's the steady warming trend, which will continue until we reach zero carbon emissions.

So Megyn Kelly would not like her 5 or 8-year-old daughter sex trafficked and sold for sex to 30-60+ year old men, but her 15 year old, that would “be different, just barely illegal.”
Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

Rain awnings on ✅ Eery hive has honey + what they need to feed babies to grow if they can’t leave the house for 3+ days of rain (NOT honey!):
Nectar or nectar sub + pollen
✅✅✅They have all 3!
Ready for rain in all. 💪 Coundn’t have done it without Mariah!🤩I’m beat from lifting 50Lb hive boxes, 🌱

Rain tonight Los Angeles and it’s likely too early to cast poppy seeds (if we warm again they’re prone to powdery mildew), but Lupine and milkweed are ideal go toss on parkways and freeway sides! 🌱 Bring on the rain!

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Pink moment in Santa Monica @ Michelin ⭐️ Citrin + 2🌟🌟 Melisse by Chef Josiah. Attempting to raise next season’s new queen bees NOW assuming none will be available (again), until June - climate warming beekeeping is difficult. Don’t let any tell you only native bees are at risk. 🌱 More in comments.
