Love them terriers! Escaping from Planet X. Love books (once a librarian), art, travel, Japan. Also needlework. Declutterring (in my dreams). Cooking. Quilting.

I’m delighted to share my first feature for @magiccanoe.bsky.social, on how the tribe-led fight to upgrade salmon culverts throughout Washington state has led to a bounty of other benefits, including better wildlife crossings and flood-resistant infrastructure. 🧪 🌲

Trypophobia alert 🫣

This is an Acorn Woodpecker (Melanerpes formicivorus) from Central America & Western United States, filling his acorn larder

If Trypophobia is new to you, it is an aversion to the sight of repetitive patterns or clusters of small holes or bumps

Absolutely inundated w content. Love @womensartbluesky.bsky.social and @openculture.bsky.social but they post so darn much that impact is lost. The human brain is not completely tech ready, no matter what they say.

If you shop at a Wegmans, they're running their Check Out Hunger campaign thru Nov. 29. Just add 1, 3 or 5 to your bill- 100% of $ collected goes to a local food bank (and yes, they post where and lots of the partner food banks have the program listed).

It's great timing a SUCH an easy way to give.

Donating to NPR to support my local WABE radio station is one of the easiest decisions I make every year. The added value public radio brings to communities cannot be overstated. Transparent independent reporting is so vital especially in the current climate.

I would truly love this post more if it did not completely INUNDATE my timeline every single day. It’s too much and not enough time to appreciate and savor the work of women artists.

A rural Austrian village of 8,000 people gets 31 trains per day, while Columbus, Ohio, with a population of 913,000, receives none.

We don't need a perfect rail system, but we deserve better than this.

It can often be difficult to tell Sheep (right) and Goats (left) apart, but to the trained eye there's an obvious difference:

While both commit Crimes, only Goats are aware that their actions are wrong, and are thus capable of Sin.

My fellow white people, I feel the need to point something out.

Senator Cory Booker and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries are kicking ass and taking names on the Capitol steps today.

ONCE AGAIN, we waited for Black people to take the lead.

WE NEED TO STEP UP.
Congressional Republicans are preparing to gut Medicaid and essential services to give the ultra-wealthy a tax cut.

Talking with Leader Hakeem Jeffries on the Capitol steps this morning about how we make our voices heard in this moral moment.

Soubhiye, from Lebanese Arabic, is the enjoyment of a quiet moment of peace before everyone else is awake.

Gökotta is a Swedish term for waking up early to enjoy the birdsong.

For the rest of us, there is hurkle-durkling, from Scots: lingering in bed long after it’s time to get up.
