About 8 years ago I planted two witch hazels var “Diane”, a hybrid with red blooms in February. One of them had some shoots up out of the middle branches, and they’re blooming yellow, in November? Is this native rootstock sending up growth? I’m baffled.

If the person you are shoving into a van has any inkling that you are an officer of the law, you are doing it wrong. You should look like someone who is going to Home Depot because you forgot something (what you forgot was an arrest warrant for your next stop).

There’s a dress code to help you make that determination.

I’m for the U.S. Army having lots of tanks.
I’m against having them in the streets of Washington, D.C.

In preparation for next week’s parade/demonstration, tanks are being moved into Washington, DC today. Unprecedented.

Just had a happy hour with a bunch of eminently brilliant feds and most of the conversation was about potential escape plans.

The weird things that happen to myself and others are my favorite part of being at sea for a long time on research cruises. I have so many stories.
I've spent more than two years of my life at sea on research vessels, each time for about a month. You can see people slowly going insane over that month of isolation from civilization, even though they're still around ~30 other people. Bunker life's going to make billionaires even more sociopathic.

For #Invertefest here is my completed pollinator garden work which I made for my show about the future of pollination for Manufactured Ecosystems. Using collaged linocut prints I built up this little garden with multiple native wildflowers, bees, moths, butterflies, beetles and a log, 🧵

But seriously… been thinking about folks I know whose parents fled oppressive regimes and emigrated to the US. How would I know when that line was crossed for me and my loved ones? Would I stay and resist, or leave?
Everytime I open Bluesky I start asking myself if now is the time to leave the country.
