Another classic post-Homan day where around school dismissal time we get a flurry of ICE vehicles all across our neighborhoods. Today one vehicle led an observer to their own home and pointed at it. This is a sick game to them, but we won’t be intimidated and we won’t stop until DHS is abolished.

People ask me "why kelp is important". There's not enough space for all the reasons here but big reasons are that kelp can grow faster than any other any species fixing CO2, providing shelter and food. Urchins eat kelp plus they're "messy" eaters so they feed other species nearby.

Jasmine Crockett: “Most of us already know who Trump is — we already know there are no bounds to how low he’s willing to go. We know that he has no moral compass. We know that he is a disgrace — when will Republicans in Congress condemn his behavior — your silence is complicity & it is very loud”

A young rockfish rests on a rocky pinnacle off of Coal Oil Pt. along with a few urchins, and lots of encrusting algae and inverts.

The pink rock is coralline algae, a kind of seaweed that secretes calcium carbonate. It's been said that coralline algae is the glue holding coral reefs together.
