"Felling Trees" by @samanthaterrell.bsky.social is a lovely, authentic weaving of hard lessons into reflective verse. Personal, observant, she pays attention to life's contradictions and mysteries with an unflinching honesty and empathy. @lowhangingfruiter.bsky.social @lowhanginfruit.bsky.social

Sorry but #politics not #poetry for a sec; Can everyone please get off @sanders.senate.gov 's back with the sanctimonious BS? (This is why we have a Trump in office in the 1st place) If you actually listen to the interview, Bernie says what he has always said, we need a path to citizenship.
