In #Okinawa, coastal fishermen now farm #coral, restoring #reefs like planting trees in a forest. With #ocean temperatures rising, half the world’s coral reefs have already vanished. These farmers are fighting back, one fragment at a time.

Here are some nice mushrooms
A cluster of five vibrant Orange Mock Oyster mushrooms grow from the side of a bare log, their orange gills radiating outward under fuzzy tops. All photos by me

The GOP, controlled by billionaires and corp elite, are defunding critical public services by 2 TRILLION DOLLARS… to extend tax breaks for billionaires and corporations. 🤬

No, you’re not overreacting.

American planes are crashing almost every day and the Secretary of Transportation is visiting the Daytona 500 and tweeting at Pete Buttigieg.

It's always been the case that "buying" an ebook from amazon was only actually a loan they could rescind at any point, but lately Amazon have gone harder on this, and it is 100% so that they can wipe banned books from your libraries without your consent.

Buy direct from authors. Get your files.

hey for anyone who might want to actually own their kindle books instead of renting them, or who might be thinking of switching to kobo etc and will want to convert them to epubs, you now only have one week before amazon kills your ability to download its ebooks www.theverge.com/news/612898/...
Amazon’s killing a feature that let you download and backup Kindle books
It’s bad if you like to keep ebook backup copies.

from “Parable of the Talents” by Octavia Butler
From EARTHSEED: THE BOOKS OF THE LIVING Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought. To be led by a coward is to be controlled by all that the coward fears. To be led by a fool is to be led by the opportunists who control the fool. To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen. To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies. To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery.

Mycenaceae, I love finding fungi off the ground. It means I don’t have to get dirty or be mistaken for a dead body lying on the ground (this has happened many times) and I can get a nice clean view of them.

This Sparrowhawk seems to be to be staring at you with an unsettling intensity...

You have, uh, submitted your #BigGardenBirdwatch results right?...Right? 👀

Quick, over here: https://buff.ly/4gXUE3y
A piercing stare from a Sparrowhawk fills the frame, its striking orange eyes locked onto the viewer with an unsettling intensity. Its dark, furrowed brow and sharp beak add to the sense of menace, as if it has been silently watching...and it is not pleased with your delay. This is no longer a request. Submit your results...

Monday mood: This Heron standing very still, hoping no one asks it to do anything today.

#MondayMotivation
A Grey Heron stands perfectly still, its long neck stretched tall and beak pointed forward, eyes wide and unblinking. Its sleek grey feathers and sharp stare give off an air of quiet determination...or perhaps silent desperation? With an expression that screams, "If I don’t move, maybe no one will ask me to do anything," it perfectly captures that classic Monday mood.
