Hello Bluesky!
It's been refreshing seeing all the scientists, nature lovers, peace makers out there.
I thought I'd share some of my work cultivating and sharing nature's beauty as a greenhouse grower and flower farmer.

Jordy Meiselas: ICE didn't just lower the age requirement—they removed the age requirement. Now, at any age—you can go and join. They've riled up their base and have given them one lane to occupy: take out your anger, become an ICE agent, and chase down migrants. They are preying on people's hate.

Think about what the GOP is revealing with their attempt to suddenly change the Congressional maps: they know their agenda is so unpopular that they're going to lose unless something changes.
Of course, what they should be changing is their policies, not the maps.
