We've got the numbers: Last year we published (in partnership with the @brennancenter.org and @umd-cdce.bsky.social) survey results showing that some 21.3 million Americans could be disenfranchised by the SAVE Act, which the House''ll vote on tomorrow.

Time to send this thing back to its grave.
Millions of Americans Don’t Have Documents Proving Their Citizenship Readily Available
Requiring Americans to prove their citizenship to register to vote would exclude millions of citizens from the political process.

What is this plant?!

I found it in my collection of pots as I went to transplant some starts. I don’t recognize it and my plant ID app thinks it’s stonecrop 🤦😆

This reminds me of the crack in the wall from Doctor Who, especially the way it seems to be glowing inside.

A crack in cow bone 🐄

The rooreh is starting to flower!

Claytonia perfoliata (previously called “miner’s lettuce”) is a nutrient-dense, delicious California native that loves cold weather 🌱 One of my favorites 🥰

The narcissus are popping up all over the garden 🌱

Before blooming, it’s easy to mistake for onions. My 1st year gardening, I nearly added them to dinner! If it doesn’t smell like onion, it’s not onion! 😳😆

My favorite macro photo from today (zoomed in and out)

If you know info about the kind of mold or insects on it, I’d love to know!

Found this tiny beauty in the greenhouse 😍

#JumpingSpider

I think it’s a Habronnatus coecatus based on a cursory internet search of local jumping spiders 🧐

Pro-Newsom posts seem very similar to pro-Trump posts from a few years back.

I wonder if he hired the same firm or just gave similar instructions 🤔

💔 Alice Wong’s last words: “Don’t let the bastards grind you down.”

We can never thank Alice enough for fighting all the good fights and especially all the hard fights. We all learned so much from your brilliance, your courage, and your indefatigable leadership. We will never forget you.
