Some especially helpful resources: 

Actionable information for homeowners: homes.rewiringamerica.org/save
Nonprofits saving money: re-volv.org/projects/com...
General info about the tax credit phaseouts: rmi.org/state-online...

FYI many federal clean energy tax credits – covering things like heat pumps, EVs, rooftop solar, and home batteries – are quietly expiring or changing, thanks to the recent “One Big Beautiful Bill Act.” But most people have no idea that there’s a rapidly-closing window of opportunity.

Crazy rich asians (although there are halfies)

Hey #gardensky folks. Need some ideas for indoor houseplants that thrive in direct sunlight (in front of southern facinf windows), looks great and are low maintenance in cooler area,TIA! 🌱 #houseplants

Seeing our scientists and researchers continue to innovate, discover, and provide hope for the future. Also, seeing our providers continue to care for people, heal, and provide a path forward. Witnessing how big people’s hearts are despite what we’re seeing from this administration <3

‘Self-termination is most likely’: the history and future of societal collapse An epic analysis of 5,000 years of civilisation argues that a global collapse is coming unless inequality is vanquished

For thousands of years, we have been parasitised, exploited and destroyed by elites. Our survival depends on overthrowing them.

We have robins that keep flying into windows. Experimented with taping aluminum foil strips around window and covering places on balcony where it perched with foil. It worked for now…

Beautiful irises!

Super helpful distinctions - thank you this has helped to solve the mystery!

Thank you - this is spot on!

Blueskyers - help me ID this huge hornet in my garden that got trapped in my home. Is it a giant hornet, asian hornet, cicada killer or something else? Friend or foe? #hornets #insects #gardening

It’s to prevent the ants from crawling up the plant and harvesting the aphids. They don’t like cinnamon 😊

Part sun - hostas are doing well!

I try to keep the ants away as they’ll keep the aphids around as pets to keep them sucking the sap out of the plants. Make a circle around your plant base w/cinnamon. Aside from spraying I have to manually pick them off to be more effective. Good luck!

White leaf hostas

White feather hostas emerged. Fellow gardeners trying these out - this is the second year and the first time they emerged all white vs w/green stripes
