@tmigratorius.bsky.social can you identify this as a species of goldenrod/ Solidago? I couldn’t find it in any of my field guides. I (unfortunately) live in the southeast. The leaves are pretty chewed up, but it seems that they’re simple alternate.

8 years since I happened upon a species of hypericum. Today, several sightings of Hypericum tetrapetalum. In my magical and hereditary healing tradition, Hypericum is known as scacciadiavoli (in other areas of Italy Artemisia Vulgaris has the same folk name). It banishes + protects. Good omen.

“Y’allternative” seems redundant because folks should know by now how goth & punk Appalachians are. What’s more goth than wailing hymns like “Oh, Death” and having your Papaw buried in your backyard? What’s more punk than foraging in the hill and forming unions with your buddies against Big Coal?

When I was young, the "Think globally, act locally" bumper sticker was quite popular. I think about it still. How we can make a positive impact in our local communities, or even virtual communities, that might have a ripple effect and make the world a better place.
