It may very well take 7 nations to fix just 1 😤. Wouldn't it be easier to think bigger, cooperate and fix One BIG Mess? Peace, serve it for dinner- together the way meals used to be. 🤔💚

My friends, Are we done bickering yet?.. My Blue friends: when the blue is gone, there's no 'night sky' to Dream. My Red friends: without the red foundation of strength & blood our country is already 'built' on, What do we have?? ..a s(p)oiled white flag. 🤔😏😤💚🫶

Here are some nice mushrooms
Hundreds of blue and yellow turkey tail mushrooms grow on the top and sides of a fallen log. They form dense rosettes on top and cascading shelves down each side

It's late, just now catching up. Apologies if we're posting too much. With everything that's going on, it's hard to avoid. It's not possible to keep up on all the mail we get, so please be patient. We're putting out fires as fast as we can. Photo credit John McColgan

🤔.. Sooo, since the paperwork wasn't done for our national bird, would it be deported if caught? Canada has bald eagles.. 😏just saying. We bought wolves from Canada, when we had perfectly good ones in Alaska to introduce to Idaho's Frank Church land. Hmm, where does it stop- ..fertilized eggs?

The Cowboys are closing in on a deal for former Bears HC Matt Eberflus to be their new defensive coordinator, sources say. The favorite all along, Eberflus joins Brian Schottenheimer’s staff and returns to Dallas — where he was LBs coach from 2011-2017.

Maybe if we would'a smoked a little more medical peace pipe and gotten along so long ago, rather than slaughter each other- we wouldn't ALL be stuck with trump.. 🤔 Just saying 😏☮️ Peace.. it's what should'a been for dinner (we're STILL choking on greed). 😤💚

SD government will be better off without KN, trump can have her. Even though THE PEOPLE VOTED it in- they're trying to repeal medical Marijuana right now. This state needs ALL new politicians (no matter the party). Where's the state reboot , ctl alt delete! 😤🤔😏 ☮️

I have to live here in SD. The land of surprise is at work, Still- Eventhough it was voted in BY THE PEOPLE, she's leading a charge to repeal medical Marijuana. After the whirlwind election, the other rats go to work on chewing at what healthy flesh is left. ..I hope she moves to the capital

@0ffkilter.bsky.social there is an artist here in town that does the same style as you (I think). She doesn't think they're art. I told her to pick her 10 best pieces. I opened a salon and plan on showing her art before I put in retail. What you guys do with color and balance is amazing!! 🥰

Take the time to see another person's 'struggle' today. It's not having or giving the solution that fixes it , but rather the compassion that heals it. Spoiler Alert: it's healing for both involved and creates a collateral 'damage' of it's own. I think we used to call it , what was it?.. Peace. 🫶

It's not that I'm obsessed with doing hair, my profession, any more. It's that beauty has crept into my life, and art become more important. Today I am the best stylist and artist I can be.. Painting smiles on the faces of depressed souls by nothing more than showing someone 'their' beautiful.

The best art I do has pieces of my life's memories lost in it. I find that when I revisit the art, even painful parts become beautiful with time. To me, your 'sprinkles ' mean you're not only an artist, you amplify Peace. My day starts with a 2-donut pack. Today I'm getting the one with sprinkles.🫶
