Great story! Learning to identify butterflies is in reach. Counts by thousands of people make up the best long term data 🦋 And there are practical means to forestall rapid butterfly decline. Thank you @margaretrenkl

@ Margaretrenkl@NYT
You are not alone
Why is there so little to remind us of the way Native nations were displaced via Tennessee routes?

Thousands of people from five Native nations were forced to leave their ancestral lands on foot, and many of them walked through our communities.

@margaretrenkl.bsky.social 's latest opinion piece has been very helpful for me today in dealing with people who choose misinformation over facts. #truth #margaretrenkl #fightfordemocracy
One thing we can do when it seems we have no way to fight the lies hammering down on us: Tell the truth. In as many contexts as we can, to as many people as we can, for as long as we have breath, we can tell the truth. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/03/o...

@margaretrenkl is the only opinion writer I still read at the @nytimes.

What is the cardinals’ and black birds’ message on a cold new year day? We must work together.

Seeing those cardinals watching over each other, I wondered: What can I, too, do to be watchful? To take care?

STASILAND is so good (not least of which because I happen to live in what was once East Berlin). I’m currently reading THE REST IS MEMORY by Lily Tuck after [email protected] recommended it in a recent column. It’s so well done.

I would recommend finding several people here who bring you two this joy and look to whom they follow. Start following some of these people and go from there.
The people that I, personally, would recommend most are:
@MargaretRenkl
@MarkHarris
@KevinDDaly
and
@JSmithCameron

Harris must win if we have any hope of truly facing climate catastrophe.

@MargaretRenkl pulls no punches here.

Twisters was sponsored by RAM trucks and features wind turbines being destroyed by natural disasters.

Really not sure there was ever any chance of them mentioning climate change

@margaretrenkl writes of #winter: “Late in the day, before my husband gets home, I sit with my book and my dog, and I treasure the quiet. The earth is resting, and I am in need of rest, too. In winter, I feel at home in the silences of the world.”
