Straight up bizarre to see Ted Cruz finally correct about something.

This morning I checked the expiration on my Passport, because I may have the opportunity for international travel very soon. Conundrum: it expires May 2028. Do I let it expire and re-apply 2029, or do I renew and have to have that ugly fucking mug on it for the following 10 yrs

Suggest fracking and data centers and nuclear energy facilities be built next to golf courses and resorts and see how fast the narrative changes. Double dare

Seem to have found myself on a 'list' Just so it's clear: I swear if I have to fly home just to lie myself in front of a bulldozer like Arthur Dent to protect Yosemite, I am not only going to be pissed, I am going to sharpen my nails first & leave marks when they drag me kicking & screaming away.

I manifested 602's return to Brooks Falls by talking about him this morning. Please give me some space to revel in this small joy #FBW @explore.org #Katmai #BrooksFalls

Seriously, if I have to fly back home and lie in front of a bulldozer like Arthur Dent to protect Yosemite.... I am not only going to be super pissed, I am going to also leave some marks.

Mr. Aloha used to sit outside Pukalani Foodland or Costco in his outrageous, bright floral, head-to-toe outfits & cheerfully greet passersby. Some days, there will be some older gentleman sitting in "his spot" and I smile a little inside remembering him Gone 5 yrs now RIP, sir.

This post (and thread) got me thinking: Who would be the perfect medley ensemble for a quick re-enactment? I've got Jack Black for Eddie... Who else would get the honor of a tribute for the rest of the cast🤔

Today at 7 pm polls close for Hawai'i primary midterms. As of yesterday 21% of *registered voters* have turned out. This is unacceptable and an egregious failure to exercise the privilege to participate. In the words of @infinitescream.bsky.social AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!

So cool ❤️

Feeling real hard for Spokane rn Whatever you do, don't let them just bulldoze the whole place. We are rebuilding faster than average for that one act alone. And put together a comprehensive re-survey plan STAT

Osage and Hiawatha roads off of Indian trail in Spokane. This neighborhood used to be full of beautiful trees and native vegetation, gorgeous older homes with stunning architecture, including mid century modern houses with stunning views out towards riverside state park. All of it gone 😢

This rescue orchid did triple spikes this spring*and* cloned from the root ball and I have been waiting for the last of the blooms to fall for a good repotting and separation... and damn if it isn't putting up another spike! Silly old orchid, stay there then.

Puppy Court is now in session!

Memory: #HailQueen "Apparently, she had tear-gas fired at her from way back there (no naked women were harmed) while she calmly, nudely, performed some yoga and some meditation. Since the 'riot police' had no idea what to do with this spectacle, they retreated." #Queenof2020

These lillies were harvested seeds from a now deceased friend's garden growing in my mother's yard, photo taken yesterday. The stakes around the plants are 6 ft tall. They are amazing and I love to see them fluorish. Their présence is significant 👇 www.floraqueen.com/blogs/floral...

My teacher friend ordered these for her 1st grade classroom, which starts a week from tomorrow. The whole room will be in green/blue with jellyfish decor. Just loving all of it. Someday she will hear from a former student how they fell in 😍 with jellyfish or oceans or whatever. #loveteachers
