Did you know that when bees grow old…they spend their last night resting gently on a flower beneath the stars. If they see another sunrise, they’ll gather one last bit of pollen…So when you see a little bee resting on a flower at dusk…pause & thank her. She’s more precious than gold. ~ GardeningSoul
A photo of an orange flower, in which two bees are facing and nestling together. “Did you know that when bees grow old, they don’t always make it back to the hive. Instead, they spend their last night resting gently on a flower beneath the stars. If they see another sunrise, they’ll gather one last bit of pollen as a final gift to their colony before quietly slipping away. So when you see a little bee resting on a flower at duck… pause and thank her. She’s more precious than gold.”

One quick note on the regime’s change of tactics on ICE enforcement. They seem to be backing down from some of the most violent tactics afaict. Yes they’re still doing evil shit but what this means is that we successfully prevented them from normalizing violent immigration raids. I think.

Save the vote act my ass! 1 in 10 Americans—about 21 MILLION people—can’t just “pull out papers” to prove citizenship on demand. They’re still citizens. And 3–4 million don’t have those documents at all. So ask yourself: is this about “security”… or quietly blocking voters? Suppress the vote act!
