Reclaiming water in the American West, and reclaiming democracy wherever necessary.
This post was so poorly timed I considered deleting it altogether. I decided to delete the original & post with a disclaimer: at the rate of violence, I fear we don’t have the luxury of waiting for an appropriate time to demand accountability.

My heart is with victims, their loved ones & witnesses

Let’s be clear this is bad news for ALL girls. Not only the trans girls who won’t be able to play competitive sports, but girls assigned female at birth who are more masculine presenting. It basically means anyone can challenge a girl to “prove” she’s a girl. Think about what that would entail.

This week already feels exhausting. Let’s try a #timelinecleanse

Feel free to share a nature photo. I spent a lot of time in the woods yesterday. I paused on a wooden bridge to watch & listen to the water gently glide over & around rocks.

May your day contain this level of ease & peace. 💙

Too funny! For some reason when I read that sentence I remembered the first time I saw a photo of a pink fairy armadillo (yes, the name is fabulous and it is weirdly cute) - how I thought if I worked in wildlife rehab I would gladly trim this tiny treasure’s talon-like toenails. 😂😍💅✂️

Judging by the aftermath of his unintentional visit to the landscaping store, this should go swimmingly.

Merry Christmas 🎄

If you grew up celebrating Christmas & this time of year is tough for you, hang in there. We’re almost through it 💙

Wishing peace, joy, & love to all as I quietly ground myself in nature 🏜️

I’m feeling a little judged with this whole “freak folk” thing. Like, either it’s rude or I’m oblivious to the name of the genre I listen to most.

Where have I seen that look before? Oh that’s right!

🎶 Fly me to the moon! Let me play among the stars and let me see what spring is like on Jupiter & Mars….. you are all I long for, all I worship & adore. In other words: please be true! In other words: I love you! 🎶 - Frank Sinatra

🎶 Imagine me and you. I do; I think about you day and night. It’s only right to think about the [democratic socialist] you love and hold [him] tight. So happy together! I can’t see my loving nobody but you for all my life! When you’re with me baby, the skies will be [DNC] blue for all my life! 🎶🎵

I couldn’t wait for #AltTacoTunesday to share this link to Jesse Welles performing his song “Join ICE” on Colbert especially after spotting this ICE add on LinkedIn yesterday.

Signing bonuses, & that big, huh? Just last week we couldn’t pay SNAP benefits. 🤔

Check it out if you’re in range!A friend in Southern Vermont just sent me this super cool photo (buildings cropped out by me).

P.S. Do you see the smiley face? 😊

Are you emotionally exhausted and feeling punchy? How about a caption call?

(Also— sincerely hoping the person who collapsed is okay. Because, you know… any decent person would be concerned…which is why the lack of compassion seen in the photo seems ripe for a caption call.)

What the actual fuck is this? He starts the interview saying, “men and women are really different” like an irrefutable biological fact rather than a trend resulting from social & cultural expectations, & differing access to experiences based on those norms. Cis heteronormative BS. F him & the NYT.

That would stress me out, too. If you go to the gear symbol on the app, there should be an option to enable or disable notifications.

Weekend check-in

How are you holding up & managing your stress? I camped in the desert for a few days. Hiked til my body aches were louder than the aches in my mind & heart, savored sunsets & sunrises (photo), & watched the meteor shower & stars from my hammock

Sending good energy & hope☀️🥾🌅☄️✨

It didn’t take much rummaging through this trash to realize the contents ought to be shredded before tossing. I believe no one is above taking out or shredding trash, so I’ll do my part.

Coping with the stress and uncertainty while on furlough is tough, and for some folks it’s helpful to begin the day with a consistent routine.

I start my day with some light housekeeping, such as taking out the trash. 🚮 ✅

Sharing some nature vibes. I’ve been overwhelmed & depressed, & knew a change of scenery would help me get out of my head so I’m doing a road trip in the Pacific Northwest.

Even watching birds or taking a short walk to a neighborhood park can be restorative. What are you doing for self care?
