#StephaniesVision new calendar is ready: 2026 might be a rough year – make it better with pretty photos! #StephaniesCalendar is full of gorgeous full-color photos from several US National Parks plus a few images from France 🇫🇷.

Check them out at stephaniesvision.etsy.com #ShopSmall #smallbusiness
Cover of a 2026 calendar titled Stephanie's Vision. The main image shows Hadlock Falls in Acadia National Park, Maine, surrounded by a forest with vibrant autumn foliage. On the right side are two smaller photos: the top one shows a field of sunflowers under a partly cloudy sky, labeled "Sunflowers in Raleigh, N.C."; the bottom one features a downy woodpecker perched on tree branches, labeled "Downy woodpecker." The text "2026 Calendar" appears at the top. Collage titled "Three Cats and a Bird." On the left is a large photo of a Tufted Titmouse perched on a snow-covered branch, labeled "Backyard birds: Tufted titmouse." On the right are three calendar pages featuring Stephanie’s Cats. The top page for April shows a tabby cat lying down; the middle page shows a tuxedo cat sitting on furniture; and the bottom page shows a tuxedo cat in front of bookshelves. Promotional graphic titled "Calming Nature Photos" featuring two nature photographs. The first photo, labeled "Fort Worth Botanic Garden," shows a tranquil garden scene with a pond surrounded by lush greenery, including trees and various plants. The second photo, labeled "Back cover: Swallowtail Butterfly," displays an Eastern swallowtail butterfly perched on a bright pink Zinnia, set against a background of green leaves. In the top right corner of the butterfly photo is a small portrait of Stephanie, surrounded by sunflowers. Her name and website URL (https://go.unc.edu/swb) appear in the bottom right corner of the same photo. Promotional image for a calendar priced at $35. The main focus is an open calendar featuring a scenic photograph of Pine Knoll Shores, North Carolina. The photo shows a sunset over the ocean with grassy dunes in the foreground and a sky filled with wispy clouds and vibrant sunset colors. To the right, part of another calendar page is visible, showing a monthly grid and a small inset photo of a juvenile blue heron. The text "1 Calendar: $35" appears at the top on a light blue background.

Important read about NC politics.

Gene Nichol: “Newby,” he said, “has become the chief justice who destroyed the North Carolina Supreme Court as an impartial institution.”

#GratitudePhotos #DukeGardens #BloomScrolling #FlowersOfBlueSky #StephaniesVision
A detailed view of a Chrysanthemum flower with long, thin, curling petals radiating outward from the center. The petals are bright yellow with orange-red tips, and the center of the flower is a mix of deep red and orange hues. The intricate, spiraling shapes of the petals give the bloom a dynamic, fiery appearance. A close-up of a cluster of tubular, bright red-orange flowers with yellow tips, known as the Firecracker or Hummingbird Plant. The flowers grow in dense bunches on fuzzy, gray-green stems and leaves. The background is softly blurred, showing more foliage in muted grey-green tones, creating a vibrant contrast with the vivid red blossoms. A vertical shot of tall, slender stems of Russian Sage with clusters of small, delicate purple flowers. The stems are covered in silvery-green leaves, and the flowers appear airy and light, creating a sense of movement. The background includes more foliage and a gray stone path, softly out of focus, highlighting the vivid purple blossoms in the foreground. A cluster of vibrant chrysanthemum flowers "Apple Valley" with petals that are white at the center and streaked with bright pink toward the edges. Each bloom has a round, lime-green center. The flowers are densely packed, creating a lush display in the foreground. Behind them, the background shows soft-focus yellow foliage.

A close-up photograph of a bright orange spider lily flower with long, curling petals and thin, dangling stamens, creating a dramatic, spiky appearance. The flower is centered against a dark, blurred background of green leaves and soil, making its vivid color stand out. At the top of the image, bold yellow text reads “Happy Halloween!” In the bottom left corner, the watermark “Stephanie’s Vision” is visible.

I did #CancelSpotify. Huge loss for me because I love my music, but I want to be part of #DontStreamFascism

#Indivisible has great instructions for how to cancel (hint: use the website, not app) and info. on how to move your playlists somewhere else.

Also: Pay artists what you owe them, Spotify.
indivisible.org Indivisible ❌👑 @indivisible.org · 12d
Do you use Spotify Premium? Cancel your subscription until Spotify stops running ICE ads. There are other streaming options that don’t profit from exploiting artists while recruiting for ICE: indivisible.org/cancel-spoti... #CancelSpotify
(between images of the Spotify logo that have been crossed out) DON’T STREAM FASCISM Spotify is treating ICE recruitment like just another ad. But when you turn family separation into a marketing pitch, you're not a platform — you're spreading propaganda. • Cancel your Spotify Premium subscription until Spotify removes all ICE ads • Demand Spotify immediately terminate all ICE and DHS advertising contracts. • Urge artists and podcasters to speak out.

Spotify is running recruitment ads for ICE, the federal agency behind mass deportation and surveillance of immigrant communities.
AND pay artists what you owe them. Hard but long overdue to #CancelSpotify

As more foreign-born players are attracted to women’s college basketball because of rev share, the Trump Administration is clamping down on international student visas.

Talked to a handful of coaches — and the ACC’s Jim Phillips — about the hurdles.

If you needed confirmation that the NCGOP will do anything for Trump’s approval, here it is. They just agreed to gerrymander our maps.

Join us on Tuesday, Oct. 21 to send them a clear message: we're watching and we’re not backing down.

A few of my favorite signs from #nokings in Boston today.
A person holds a sign reading "The Harbor thirsts for tea" with a drawing of a person on a boat throwing a box into the water. The box is labeled "ICE TEA." The drawing also includes a black vehicle labeled ICE plunging toward the water. A person wearing a frog costume sits on a curb holding a sign that says "GIVE ME RIBBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH" A sign reading "FREE BALLS! For members of Congress who have lost theirs!" and the sign has many colorful small pompoms attached to it. A person holding a sign that says "Trump cheats at golf (and everything)" walking next to another person holding a sign that says "Alexa change the president"

NYPD NEWS @NYPDnews X.com The majority of the No Kings protests have dispersed at this time and all traffic closures have been lifted. We had more than 100,000 people across all five boroughs peacefully exercising their first amendment rights and the NYPD made zero protest-related arrests. 3:27 PM • 10/18/25 • 50K Views
