The billions of dollars we send to a foreign military to drop bombs on somebody else should have been spent to build schools, housing, and to provide healthcare HERE.

#Denmark built so much wind that some blustery hours the turbines out-produce what the whole country is using. When that happens, the extra power doesn’t sit idle. It moves through Denmark’s links into the wider European network and heads to neighbors like Germany, Norway, Sweden. #ActOnClimate

Just in time for the 2026-2027 vaccines, a new review shows that COVID19 vaccination significantly reduces the risk of severe illness and hospitalization across all age groups, including kids. Pregnant women were also protected, as were their babies. Don’t forget to schedule your vaccination!

1 Apr 2025.  A solitary jaunt to visit Fairy Falls located in Te Wao Nui o Tiriwa (The Great Forest of Tiriwa) | the Waitākere Ranges. The surrounding native forest is deeply quiet, dense, and wise. It’s seen much and observes humanity with a sceptical eye. I don’t blame them. Taken at a close, upward angle, the photo shows various tree-dwelling native mosses and ferns of different shapes on a tree trunk. The growth displays shades of green, rust, and sage which are so pleasing to the eye. The tall, thick tree trunk is mottled grey with hints of darker slate tones. The green leaves and tree limbs in the background are muted and blurred. 

Known as epiphytes (or "epiphyte tapestry" or "hanging moss gardens"), this unique set-up of moss isn’t along for a free ride. They are valuable allies as they trap and hold moisture for the benefit of the forest environment, and little insects can set up house. 

As the Earth continues to heat up, and the world literally burns, I worry for our fragile forest (among so many worries, to be honest).

We don't have to wonder if Trump was a human trafficker - because right now, the United States is conducting his policy of shipping people, as slaves with no rights, to corrupt regimes. He IS committing human trafficking. "When someone shows you who they are, believe them."

Imagine trying to scare me “Sharia Law” while I live under a GOP supermajority trying to reinstate an abortion ban, while writing bills to put the 10 Commandments in public schools and ban books and free speech. I have nothing to fear, except the Christian nationalists in front of me.

Throwback to the time I found one of my cats practicing mindfulness in my garden.
My late cat Ralph looking super chilled out, during his Buddhism phase, at a point where, by his own admission, his sideburns had reached their unimpeachable apex.

The greatest question is no longer how far humanity can go. The real question is whether humanity can become advanced enough to understand what it must stop destroying.A civilization that can reach the stars,but cannot protect the world beneath its feet, is still far more primitive than it believes.
