Wildlife gardening: stealth mode!
Sometimes it’s counterproductive to mention wildlife gardening not everyone is ready for it but we can do it anyway. Sneaking native plants, leave Wild bits at the back, a pile of sticks behind the shed, a Belfast sink in the bed. 🌱🦋🌎

Fudali: The survivors have been wronged by administration after administration, Justice Department after Justice Department, for decades and decades. This is nothing new for them. They were exploited by Epstein, and then they were exploited by the politicians who surrounded themselves with Epstein.

More highlights from 2025. The old forefinger came in handy a few times this year, usually as a scale. Micro botany on the beach at Sinah Common, Hayling Island, Hampshire with Little-Robin Geranium purpureum ssp. forsteri and Sand Cat's-tail Phleum arenarium. @bsbibotany.bsky.social

But he’s about to kick 2 million Texans off their healthcare right before Christmas.

I believe that every American should have a constitutional right to have sane and sober government representation. We should have the right to challenge via a petition, the President's competency. We should have the right to ACTUAL representation, not someone who is in it for themselves.

He never disclosed that he’d visited Epstein in that column and did a lot of hand waving to insist that he and his fellow elites had nothing, nothing at all to do with him.

Warnock: He's got a lot of nerve saying that I'm using faith to divide people. This is a man who literally had protesters gassed and beaten down so he could hold up a bible in front of a church.
