The red-flowering currant I planted almost three years ago is blooming for the first time! I’m chuffed. #nativeplantgardening #PNW
A native shrub featuring long brown woody stems sports bright green, multi-lobed leaves around several clusters of pink flowers that are just about to open. The largest cluster has two flowers that are open and look like eyes above a long face or beard. It says “Hi.”

Fuck ethics and inclusion; go die for the oligarchs, kid.
Screenshot of a news brief from the 1440 e-newsletter reads: Separately, Scouting America—formerly Boy Scouts of America—agreed to end diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives to maintain support from the Department of Defense. A military service badge will replace one focused on DEI and ethical leadership. Kids must also use their sex assigned at birth to apply to programs.

The sentence about the new military service badge is highlighted in yellow.

So, one of my coworkers told me she’d never seen any of Jack Nicholson’s films and had no idea what he looked like, and now I need to check myself into an old folks home.

Indeed. #thegospelofdavidlynch
A still image of David Lynch from a video recorded toward the end of his life with captions reading: What a great time to be alive if you love the theatre if the absurd.

David is wearing a black button-down, long-sleeved shirt and dark sunglasses and is sitting at a desk with a large apartment intercom-style telephone on the wall and a black coffee cup in front of him.

Brewing up a cauldron of Hoppin John to ring in the New Year (along with braised cabbage and corned beef). Are there any particular foods you eat for good luck on January 1?

In my backyard. #mushrooms #pnw #pnwgardening #whimsy
A clump of a dozen or more small grey mushroom grow from a patch of green moss on an old tree. Crispy brown big leaf maple leaves and western red cedar fronds are in the foreground. An ivory mushroom with black gills and a pearlescent, slightly warped cap is surrounded by brown and golden maple leaves and western red cedar fronds. A cluster of six mottled brown and white mushrooms of varying heights surrounded by small twigs, grey pebbles, red ornamental maple leaves and golden Western red cedar fronds. A folksy woodcut image of a bearded garden gnome wearing a pointed hat and a carrying a single large mushroom in his arms stands above text in an “Old English”-style type that says, “I must remain whimsical to survive the horrors.”

A series of still images from the 1982 movie “Blade Runner” show the famous exchange between Roy Batty (Rutger Hauer) and Tick Deckhard (Harrison Ford) just before Roy dies. The words “Time to die” are over one of the images of Roy in bright yellow.

We had a gully washer of a rain storm for Summer Solstice this year. It made me so happy. ❤️ I wish I could share with you how amazing our backyard smells right now. One of my favorite smells on this earth is a forest in the rain after a dry spell.

My dad with his dad. Mobile, Alabama 1948 Happy Father’s Day
A black and white photo taken in 1948 shows a young handsome man in his 20s with short , wavy dark hair and wearing light-colored slacks and a short-sleeves button-down shirt standing in front of a flowering bush or small tree of some sort and a wooden fence. He holds a one-year-old baby boy up on his left shoulder with one hand on the baby’s chest and the other on his leg. The baby wears a onesy romper and white baby shoes and socks. He’s laughing with his mouth open.

I’m kind of obsessed with my garden. 1. My sole surviving Goatsbeard is fixing to bloom this year! 2. My huge Rhododendron is always the last to bloom in my neighborhood. The giant allium smell great. 3. Fringecup, Pacific waterleaf, and a sword fern at the base of a Big Leaf Maple tree.
Close up of the small lime-green photo-blooms of a Goatsbeard plant with a blurred background. Two white giant allium flower heads are in the foreground, one with a bumblebee on it, a 10+-foot tall purple Rhododendron in full bloom is in the middle ground, and the front porch of a pale yellow two-story house with light grey and white trim is in the background. A sword fern, a clump of Pacific waterleaf plants, and two Fringecup plants with multiple flower spikes sit at the base of a very old gnarled tree trunk that has patches of moss on it. Light brown leaf litter covers the ground.

Fun Fact: In 1954, Woody Guthrie and his wife, Anneke van Kirk, lived in an apartment building owned by Donald’s father, Fred Trump. Woody wrote a song called “Old Man Trump.” It starts: I suppose Old Man Trump knows Just how much Racial hate He stirred up In that bloodpot of human hearts

These signs have started appearing on utility poles in my city recently. There is a lot of discussion locally about what they might mean. I think it is a “We will not go quietly into that good night”-type pro-trans call to arms, and I dig it. What do you think? 🏳️‍⚧️ #transgenderpride

Our property is in deep shade so spring always arrives a bit late. I was super excited to see my Cascade Oregon Grape (Mahonia nervosa) blooming for the first time since we moved in, though! And the trilliums have just started lifting their lovely heads from the duff. #nativegardens #pnwgardening

A photo taken in 1986 shows the author as a 14-year-old girl with short-cropped brown hair with random longer wispy strands of bleached blonde hair sticking out looking directly at the camera. She is wearing round “John Lennon”-style sunglasses and a black pinstriped men’s blazer over a plain white t-shirt with a vintage “Question Authority” button that she got from her mother in the lapel.

Freezing all federal grant funding is hugely impactful to nearly everything in our lives. Many people will lose their jobs if this drags on for more than a week or so. Even more people will lose essential services. Especially people living in these states 👇🏼
