"Grief is praise, because it is the natural way love honors what it misses." --Martin Prechtel.

Peace.

An abstracted landscape suggesting hills, forests, big skies and a house on the top of the hill. The quote continues: …” stagger us with the realization that no one ever really knows what it is like to be somebody else, that between one consciousness and another there always gapes an abyss black as the inside of a skull, and though we may try to reach each other with love and reason, they twine but a tenuous footbridge across it. The best we can do is hold on to the ropes and hope that they will not fray before we reach the rim of understanding, the outer edge of the other, which is all we can ever touch — and still it is enough, this sliver of salvation from the loneliness of being ourselves, this outstretched hand across the icy blue.” This right here? This Bluesky? This “tenuous footbridge”? I am grateful for it. All the tiny filaments of connection, the reaching across cyberspace to say “I see you”.

Miss those carefree days
Lounging in tall grass
Watching cloud animals
Weaving daisy chains
Puffing dandelion wishes
Childhood innocence

Oh, okay. Pam Bondi just fired the Epstein and Maxwell prosecutor, Maureen Comey.

That'll kill the conspiracy theories.

He already got what he wanted?

Love the Birdwoman...💙

Yay! Where are you in Maine? I am Midcoast-ish...

Forever

Love!

Def reptilian...LOL

If the Epstein client list doesn't exist, then neither do my student loans.

It's a good time to remember TACO donated $25,000 to Bondi's 2013 campaign for Floridas' AG. In return, her office dropped charges against tRump University.
During her tenure as Florida AG, information about Epstein's sex trafficking became widely available, yet her office chose not to pursue it.

Trump, Bondi, Patel, Bongino, Vance, etc, etc all lied to their followers about the Epstein list/conspiracy, and now that they’ve been caught in that lie, they’re all like “uh…Epstein? Why are you still asking about this guy Epstein? CNN sucks.”

They all deserve all the shit they’re getting.

Lithuanian blood here, my mother was very Pagan in the way she lived.

Just bought the book!!! 🧙‍♀️😊

what a shame this man epstein killed himself right before it turned out there was absolutely no evidence against him

Her hair's a little wild
Feathered beautifully
Topped with pink highlights...
How far her admirers come
To enjoy her sweetness

Los Angeles residents were outraged after dozens of federal agents marched through MacArthur Park, in one of the city’s most immigrant-heavy neighborhoods. Homeland Security officials said it was an immigration enforcement operation, though it was unclear if anyone had been arrested. trib.al/JYW5IsU
