Speaking out against the greed and corruption was always about opening everyone's eyes to all the things our government has proven themselves capable of.

It’s official: In the USA The Gulf of Mexico is now the “Gulf of America,” and Denali, the Alaska Native name for North America’s tallest peak, has been reverted to Mount McKinley. But we refuse to accept this change—Denali will always be Denali to us. #IStandWithDenali

For something different. Alaska mushrooms! When I moved to AK over 15 years ago one of the first things I became fascinated with were the mushroom. I'm not an expert at naming them (I'm learning), but I have expert skills in laying on my belly to photograph them. Pro tip, wear rain gear.

As the transgender community continues to fight for civil rights in the U.S., one of the most common arguments against progress is that transgender people are a recent phenomenon. But it’s a fight that’s been happening here for decades and around the world for centuries. ⤵️

Mount Denali was named for the Koyukon people who are native to Alaska and have referred to the mountain with this name for centuries. Indigenous land should be protected, not further whitewashed.

It’s important to be clear that TikTok could have stayed up through the inauguration. Joe Biden said he’d not enforce the law. They made a choice to shut down and display a pro-Trump message. They weren’t forced to.

This map should be included in every history book... History is not there for you to like or dislike. It is there for you to learn from it. And if it offends you, even better. Because then you are less likely to repeat it. It’s not yours for you to erase or destroy. ❤️

In winter through early spring, you can sometimes find unspoiled, still-bright groundcherries sitting in the latticed remnants of their husks, like hearts suspended in paper ribcages
A photo of groundcherries (Alkekengi) in a garden in winter. The round, orange, cherry tomato-like fruits are suspended in the center of pendulous, vaguely heart-shaped husks made of networks of dried beige veins. The husks have a delicate, skeletal, lattice-like structure, reminiscent of laser-cut papercraft.

Coprinopsis lagopus or Harefoot mushroom - These mushrooms are evanescent, lasting only a few hours before dying; the autodigestive process is enhanced in humid environments. #fungifriends #mushrooms

So many things happening on such a small stick. My backyard lichen stick collection grows… #HotStickSaturday #Lichen #LichenSubscribe #Macro #Nature #Photography #Noticing #Hiking
A branch with three sections, covered with 6 or more types of lichen. Some lichens are bright yellow, some are different shades of light green, some have antler like growths, some have little circle-shaped discs.

Taken by me, May 2024A family of vibrant orange enoki grow off the side of a log, their caps are covered in liquid like over-full glasses of water, their gills are illuminated under a bright winter sky. Taken by me, December 2025A piece of decayed tree bark covered in tiny white Collared Parachute mushrooms with wavy threadlike stems, the bark is held between thumb and forefinger in front of a vibrant green forest background.

A stunning panoramic view of Shafer Canyon Road at Canyonlands National Park. The canyon features steep, reddish-brown rock walls and a rugged, arid landscape. The roads snake through the canyon, creating a dramatic and scenic route. The sky above is partly cloudy, adding depth to the scene. This image stands out because of its striking natural beauty and the intricate roadways that highlight the canyon's topography.

Continuing to explore bits of #Portland I just haven't gotten around to, I finally got to Rocky Butte. I was expecting more than some stonework on top of a hill (trails? What trails?) but it was an opportunity to examine urban communities of #mosses and #lichens growing on the rocks. #urbannature
A soft cushiony round velvet ball of moss grows on a stone, surrounded by wilder, rangier mosses with spiky leaflets.Slender green lichens shaped like golf tees grow out of a mass of deep green moss on a stone.Bright greenish yellow lichens create a scattered crust on a mixed gray stone wall.A big round flat blueish-white lichen grows on a rock, surrounded by crusts of smaller yellow lichens.
