When the last tree is cut, the last fish is caught,
and the last river is polluted;
when to breathe the air is sickening,
you will realize, too late,
that wealth is not in bank
accounts and that you can't eat money.

According to the Republican Party, America doesn't have money for school lunches, vaccine research, NOAA, FEMA, or DHHS, but we've got the money for a Parade for a Fool.
60 Minutes found no criminal record for 75% of the Venezuelan migrants the U.S. sent to a mega-prison in El Salvador. https://cbsn.ws/4lC4Vp5
True ✅
One man just wiped out $10 trillion in wealth, is destroying centuries-old legal protections, and seems determined to unravel humanity’s greatest public health achievement. In 3 months.
I don’t know how we get out of this. But if we do, one person can never have that kind of power again.
SAVE THE PENGUINS.
STOP TRUMP’S TARIFFS.

Memories of my time in Ireland.
Hiking Knockma Hill, I came upon this gorgeous ancient tree with a tiny fairy door. Naturally, as one does, I left a small gift of berries in the crook of the trunk. 🧚♀️✨🇮🇪

Hoping you are hanging in there, & finding moments for rest & self care amidst the madness. Sometimes that means snuggling back under the covers like Zelda, or like me, today, it means wiping my tears, taking a deep breath & stepping out to soak up some sunshine to do the things that must be done. 🫶
We had Russia on the ropes.
They were crippled by sanctions.
They had made minimal headway into Ukraine.
Putin had to survive a military uprising within his own ranks.
He was down to pleading for conscripts from North Korea.
Then he played his ace in the hole.
Donald Motherfucking Trump.

Saw this coming.🤬
Ahhhhhhh!! There it is! I knew there was a grift somewhere in this stupid idea.
Today, Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde boldly called out Donald Trump for his hatred and bigotry at the National Cathedral Prayer Service. Now, the GOP is attacking her for speaking truth to power.
REPOST if you stand with Bishop Budde against Trump!
Today, honor a King, not a Felon. #mlkday2025

Well, well, well…I’ve been waiting for the the 🍊menace to slip up & spill the beans & I think so many of us have known that something wasn’t adding up with the election results. He just couldn’t keep himself from gloating tonight about how he & Musk were able to pull this off and rig the system.
"[Elon] knows those computers better than anybody. Those vote counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide.
IS THAT A FUCKING CONFESSION???

A confession?
Good to see you here too. Sorry it’s been like that for you. I’m not a fan of the vibe here, but I’m in wait & see mode. Though I’m such a Taurus, if I even get a whiff of something off or just don’t like how someone responds to not just me but to a mutual, I happily block immediately w/no regrets.
Of midnight blue
and Mother Moon
and stars scattered
‘cross the sky
Of Earth below
tucked deep in snow
fresh fallen, cold and white

What in the utter eff…the Gulf of ‘Murica. Of course. The 🍊imbecile would dream this up in his drug addled mind & you just know the MAGA cult/Christian nationalists are slurping this idiotic 💩 up. The absurdity & the way I just laughed & laughed, I think I alarmed my cat who bolted out of the room.
Instead of manifest destiny, maybe try manifesting decent healthcare.
Darling Zelda stopping by to wish you all a happy Caturday!
