@andreas_heitmann @Huntn00 The biggest problem we have right now is proactive complacency. Most Americans are still getting by and are anxious about what resistance would cost them

Fear of what MAGAts are capable of also feeds the inertia, but for as long as most Americans can keep on keeping on, opposition will have limited traction and those in power will just keep digging out underneath, getting closer and closer to the surface. When it falls in, it may well be just too late.

@maskedscheduler I am without doubt that she has at least one actual person to satisfy her emotional needs.

@Flipboard What does "impartial" mean, though? If they treat Republicans as the same as Democrats, how can you call that "impartial" when 90% of the toxic glurge in the country comes from Republicans?

@godpod The media *wanted* this shit. They kept Felon-ONE front&center for four long years. They love him because he moves copy for them, and saying how "bad" it is is just them cheering him on.

Waters of Dawn

This image was captured about three years ago at a small, secluded pond on the outskirts of Albany, Georgia, hidden away between hotels. The original scene featured two birds: this immature white ibis (Eudocimus albus) and a great egret. However, in my mind's eye, I envisioned the ibis and the water isolated, just as they appear here.

Good morning. ☮️✌️🪻

4 April 2025

Yesterday, we spent time working in the backyard. I repaired a hinge on the back gate and mowed the lawn for the first time this year. I also trimmed around the fence until the battery on my trimmer died—I had forgotten to recharge it after its last use. In that moment, I couldn’t help but think, 'What a wonderful feature: built-in breaks! 😂' It turned out to be the perfect excuse to call it a day. Meanwhile, my wife was busy in the raised garden, planting something new. I noticed several little seed packets in the kitchen, hinting at her plans. This is the first time in years that something other than weeds will grow in the garden. I can't help but wonder what’s gotten into us—where did this burst of energy come from? Must be biorhythms at work.

“Minnesota lost a legend yesterday in wildlife photographer Jim Brandenburg. Gwen and I are sending our love to his family.

Here’s his photo ‘Chased by the Light’ taken in Ely.” - Minnesota Governor Tim Walz

The guy on the left is supposedly dead.

I begin to have my doubts.

Finch Above

This is a male house finch (Haemorhous mexicanus), you can tell by his rosy plumage around his head and chest.

You know, the photographs that I post here are not quite a vivid as the same photographs that I post at my pixel's gallery, because here, I reduce the size of the photos and usually make a slight reduction in the quality of the photos to make them easier to load.

Take a look:

@SearingTruth @spaceghoti You need to put that “truth” back on the grill. It is not adequately seared yet.

@Melissabeartrix You mean, like when you fix a dog?

Because, that might help.

Though, the world would probably complain a lot.
