Crisis @crisis-uk.bsky.social · 3h
974 people died while homeless in England and Wales in 2025. Behind this number is 974 people whose lives were tragically cut short because of homelessness. This is inexcusable in 2026. And it doesn’t have to be this way. By working together, we can end homelessness for good.

Melissa Blue. What a lovely name for a butterfly (Plebejus melissa) #invertebrates

In a world of crowded highways, look for the places they forgot to pave. There, the air shifts & the earth remembers your name... #peace #photography #nature #ThickTrunkThursday #wellbeing #mentalhealth
A well manicured trail, bordered by a rustic wooden fence, winds it way through a brightly lit forest. Foreground, a gigantic old growth tree grows precariously at an angle that slightly overhangs the trail, its gnarly root base dug deeply into the soil. The trees bordering the trail enjoy the midday sun beneath a blue, blue sky...yesterday mornings walk🎉

It's just straight-up racism, and nobody is batting an eye.
Andrew Scheer:

Carney wants to bring back Trudeau-era levels of immigration. 

This is the Conservative response 👇

Quoting Michelle Rempel Garner:

Mark Carney said he will increase immigration. 

That's crazy.

Immigration needs to go down. WAY down.

The fisherman in this boat is 95 years old. We've known each other off and on for years, and reconnected a few weeks ago when he came out of the fog in front of me while I was kayaking along the cliffs. Bob is full of wisdom, stories, and strong opinions and is a strong voice for lake Winnipeg. 1/2
A lone fisherman in a red jacket stands at the bow of 20-ish foot yawl with a large, black outboard motor. He's working his net in the dim blue light of pre-dawn as a small squadron of white pelicans wait behind the boat for scraps.

Walking around in the bush with my head down again this morning. I’m absolutely in love with the gills on this mushroom. I think it might be a type of oysterling. 🍄🌿
Looking at the underside of a frilly oyster mushroom. The different lobes overlap, each other kind of like a nudibranch, it’s tan gills form, beautiful, ripping patterns.
