WA State farm workers are hard at work deleafing apple trees and doing summer pruning. Deleafing is the targeted removal of select leaves—to allow maximum sunshine to reach the apples. This boosts fruit sugar content and improves skin color. #WeFeedYou

The interior hallway (engawa) of Genkō-an Temple, a historic Soto Zen Buddhist temple located in northern Kyoto, Japan.

the quiet, meditative atmosphere within the inner corridor and engawa (traditional wooden veranda) of Genkō-an Temple (源光庵), a historic Sōtō Zen Buddhist sanctuary nestled in the scenic hills of Kita-ku in northern Kyoto. Famous for its architectural framing of nature, the temple interior is presented here through an exquisite interplay of deep shadows, natural textures, and a luminous, jade-green light reflecting off polished surfaces.

The composition utilizes a strong linear perspective that guides the viewer's eye down a wide, covered hallway towards a sunlit opening at the far end. The polished wooden floorboards of the interior dominate the foreground, their surfaces meticulously maintained to a high, glass-like sheen. This glossy finish creates an ethereal mirror effect, catching the vibrant green light from the courtyard and casting deep, emerald reflections along the corridor floor.

To the left, the temple structure opens up completely via massive sliding wooden doors, effortlessly connecting the interior space with the outdoor elements—a hallmark of classical Zen design. Parallel to the main hallway runs a slatted outer wooden deck, which sits directly beneath deep, protective roof eaves designed to shade the interior from harsh weather. Beyond this threshold lies a glimpse of the temple's legendary rock and moss garden, showcasing manicured, rounded azalea bushes (tsutsuji), mossy banks, a small stone lantern (tōrō), and a dense canopy of fresh early-summer maple trees.

The right side of the frame features a series of traditional, paneled wall partitions and sliding doors (fusuma), their lower sections decorated with vertical wooden slats that provide a rigid, graphic pattern. At the far end of the corridor, a single open doorway frames a perfectly composed view of a sun-drenched bamboo grove and trees outside, acting like a natural landscape painting suspended in the darkness.

On this day in 1908, Jane Bolin was born. Bolin, America’s first black woman judge, said this about women’s rights in 1958: “Those gains we have made were never graciously and generously granted. We have to fight every inch of the way — in the face of sometimes insufferable humiliations.” #WeTheMen

Borders are fake. No human being is illegal on stolen land. Being a citizen or resident of the US isn't a prize or a lifetime achievement award. If you can't live with people different from you, you're just a bigot. And, if we don't want so many refugees, we should stop fucking up their countries.

Dr. Leila Denmark co-developed the pertussis (whooping cough) vaccine in 1932. She was the world's oldest practicing pediatrician until she retired at age 103 (practicing for 73 years). She died a supercentenarian #OTD in 2012 at the age of 114 years and 60 days. #WomenInSTEM

A black-and-white photo shows Dr. Leila Denmark (center), an elderly woman with glasses, seated and smiling while looking at a baby who is laughing and facing her. Another younger woman is also seated to the right, laughing and placing her hand near the baby's midsection. The scene suggests a warm, inter-generational interaction, possibly in a clinical or home setting. Dr. Denmark was a pioneering pediatrician, known as the world's oldest practicing pediatrician upon her retirement at age 103.
