🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️

Snapshots of a busy weekend: lobster boat travel, candlelight coziness, beaching in the chill, planting strawberries and fruit trees, cold dog is cold like her mama after getting soaked by rain. The rhubarb flowering is beautiful. ☺️

Back to our happy place☺️ Walked the beach yesterday and counted about 8 baby seal cadavers as well as one eagle. Not sure why so many on this one beach, possibly just washed up in storms. Despite rain, the sun made appearances enough to make being outside enjoyable. Lots of peepers chirping, too.

Happy fluff nugget on his tower now that it's in what he feels is an optimal location. Daphne mezereum making me so happy with it's beauty and fragrance every year.

Happy little tomato babies! Amish Paste tomato variety. Three 'greenhouse' containers working their magic on hibiscus seeds and Yellow Wonder alpine strawberry seeds. The strawberry seeds were a gift included in a seed order from Garden Faery Botanicals.
May: I'll start squash and watermelon 😁

Guild plant suggestions. I'm planning 6 more fruit trees this year so I am looking for more plant ideas.

Bare soil is lost soil. Keep the soil covered with mulch to protect microbes, retain moisture, and prevent erosion 🌾

Mulch = Nature’s blanket. Cover your soil, feed the earth, and grow abundance! 🌱🌎 #Permaculture #RegenerativeAgriculture #SoilHealth

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at McMaster University have discovered a NEW peptide antibiotic that targets a broad range of disease-causing bacteria INCLUDING those RESISTANT to existing antibiotics. This discovery marks the first potential new class of antibiotics in NEARLY 30 YEARS. 🧪🧵⬇️

Silenced
They shaved their heads
They dehumanized them
They humiliated them
They condemned them
It happened 80 years ago
It happened last week
The tears of the unhumans
Silenced in the night

Check out the Pig War that took place in the Pacific Northwest for American and the Pacific Southwest for Canada/GB. It involved a pig, a vegetable garden and eventually British warships and much of the American armed forces in the west. Because the U.S. is prone to war.
After nearly 50 years, Canada and Denmark resolved the Hans Island dispute in June 2022, splitting the island between Greenland and Canada's Nunavut. This agreement ended the "Whisky War" and showcased a peaceful approach to border disputes.
