We have a native hybrid penstemon that does the same thing — blue to purple rose blooms depending on the bloom cycle. It’s a great #pollinator #plant needs little care & people will stop and ask you what that plant is. Best part is the name, definitely a party Margarita BOP Penstemon.

Purple to pink tube shaped colored flowers with yellow buds emerging from stalks of small bright green lance shaped leaves

You don’t need more bags. REALLY! With that said, how cool is that rainbow IKEA bag that takes up half of my boot?

Happy Caturday from mittens who will be adjusting her nap according to what level the sunbeam hits on the cat scratcher.

A tiger and white tabby cat with green eyes rests on the level of the scratching post that gets the most sun.

A great cat in the kitchen sink with a not so happy look being hosed with the sprayer because he refuses to clean himself.

The catch is that some cities are probably going to try and get rid of public transit rather than build houses, and we’ll need to hold them accountable

In my area they claim that every new affordable housing project will add 3 cars per unit thus taking the developers to court bc affordable housing will increase wildfire evacuation problems. If these fuckers would put as much energy into evacuation plans it wouldn’t be an issue.

We are preparing but with the closure of Party City we may have to get creative. Power to the lady in my neighborhood that’s been protesting mainly by herself dressed as a pirate (sorry no pirate pic.)

No kings protest with a lady dressed in green as the Statue of Liberty.

We are mostly seniors. We sing & dance and carry signs. This infuriates the little boys that have spent thousands wrapping their big trucks. (We know who they are w/o that shit.) They drive by & yell expletives & sometimes spray us w questionable liquids. Who’s the terrorist here?

A raised truck trolling protesters wrapped with MAGA, TRUMP, the American flag and the preamble to the Constitution. Laughed trump and American flags on the tailgate. He was also filming on his phone while driving. I don’t think that that’s legal.

Their logic is so convoluted. We don’t pay the undocumented for going to the ER. That money goes to pay doctors, nurses and the for profit hospitals that they seem to be promoting.

DaniSue @danisue.bsky.social · 1d

And who gets paid for that? We’re not giving money to them for going to the ER. We’re paying our doctors and nurses and those for profit hospitals.
