I am grateful to The Miccosukee Tribe.

substack.com/@jasminesjus...
Substack Post Snip from Ariana Jasmine from 4 days ago. Florida tried to create “Alligator Alcatraz.” The Miccosukee Tribe stood up and sued. As a result, a federal judge has ordered the closure of Alligator Alcatraz within 60 days. We need to thank the Miccosukee Nation for their courage and attention to this fight; this victory wouldn’t have happened without their commitment to protecting our environment.

Humans are not perfect, so there is no need to be 🫂

📷 @tillytie.bsky.social
"Humans are not perfect, so don't try to be." Two small cards held in a hand. The left card shows one side of the card. The background is pastel rainbow striped in blue, pink, yellow, purple, green, and blue. At the top of the card is a cartoon frog which is mostly purple with a yellow belly, two large white circle eyes with small black pupils, and a small sweet smile. On the bottom of the card is a cartoon frog which is pink with a small yellow heart on its hind leg. It has a simple loving face of two black eyes and a mouth. There is a small yellow spouting plant adorning its head. The letters in the middle of the card in alternating colors spell out "Frogs for Unkind Days" Below that, in a small yellow text box above the pink frog, it says in black, "Sugar & Sloth". The right card shows the other side of the card and has a solid yellow background. Similar to the right facing pink frog on the front, is the same type of cartoon frog, only it is left facing, a little larger and green with a pink heart and the sprouting plant adorning its head is pink. The phrase is in black and fills the card, "Humans are not perfect, so don't try to be." At the bottom of the card, in a small pink text box, it says in black, "Sugar & Sloth" [note: I bought this adorable, delightful card set on Etsy, from: SugarandSloth • Anita Perry • Shop Owner.]

Found a wild strawberry. I love all the shades of green and the berry is so tiny and adorable

A deep blue background bespeckled with white stars, in the foreground: two columns of white text. The left column states: i am a woman, I AM, born of stardust, a bright source of light, beauty, strength, emotion, kindness, gratitude, joy, hope. The right column states: compassion, equanimity, tranquility, passion, song, curiosity, energy, power. Attributed to -Peggy Sammons in periwinkle font. This was created in November 2024 in response to the demonstrators at Texas State University carrying signs stating that women are property.

Thanks for the humor. I am trying my best to stay calm for our upcoming 12:30 meal. Just keep breathing.

We peeked over the countertop ledge as MayMay laid out cookies on the pan, stating "These delights will be ready soon!" It seemed odd that Pip was not with us. I saw them earlier and heard them #complain about the frog eye salad. As the pan went into the oven, I forgot my concern.

My work plant grew two new leaves over the weekend!! 😀🌞
Plant in light green ceramic pot with two new leaves growing near the dirt. A pink coffer cup in the background. Plant pot is near a framed quote that says live with intention, walk to the edge, listen hard, laugh, practice wellness, play with abandon, choose with no regret, appreciate your friends, do what you love, live as if this is all there is. -m.a. hershey
