A small yellow sunflower in full bloom.

A heavy branching yellow sunflower with small brown centers and large yellow flower petal leaves.

This sunflower is a gift from the birds. I really like this one. It’s a keeper. I love when seed saving starts and the anticipation of next year begins. 🌿🌱🌻

Omg. This is horrific

I read Handmaid’s Tale. It doesn’t go well for middle-age progressive women like me

He fucking SHARED THIS? Out in the open??? (I first typed SHARTED THIS and yep, that tracks.) Someone needs a damn good ass-whooping & quick.

I thought he told us not too long ago to not listen/follow his advice?

Where are the hard-working Americans who screamed, “They’re stealing our jobs”?

You’re getting your wish. Immigrant workers aren’t showing up, and farm owners are hiring.

Exactly

We’re getting from Laguna Beach. Oceanside is close by but still a drive. Laguna is nice but too costly. No parking. Terrible access to shops. We haven’t been to the Pageant of the Masters for 2 yrs now as it’s near impossible to get parking and too many ppl.

So where are the homeless supposed to go?

My one other flower plant that hasn’t died

We have the sea breeze. Still, I’ve had to turn A/C on around 1pm ish. In low 90s here in S. Orange County

Off to church. One thing I love about hats is less maintenance on hair. Plus, this urban outfitter’s straw hat is one of my favorites.

Sunflower growing!

The farmers here are cultivating more and more of these large sunflower-fields in the last years. No matter how bad your day was, it will definitely be better when you look at these big suns. Hope it works for you, too. Send you some!

Bumble bee on a yellow sunflower. The sunflower is past its prime in the center and the same golden yellow as the bumble bee. I’m like the paparazzi out here.

And it’s not Christian behavior to care less about other’s pain and suffering if it doesn’t affect you personally. Nothing Christian about that

Also today heard yet another white person brush off my ICE fears. Told me, “You’ll be ok.” Uh, I know history and know the pattern. No one is safe especially those right now who fit the profile

Let la migra take me, will you?” The fear was real. I never thought 30 yrs later ICE would actually be bold to kidnap ppl in broad daylight and not care. Angered me then and then infuriates me now.

Speaking as a former bilingual teacher from South Whittier school district. In 1994, Ca had an English Only proposition on the ballet. My student’s parents shared how la migra waited in bushes for parents and ambushed them. My then first graders asked, “You won’t 1/2

This week school starts. With ICE raids ramped up, please be safe. Already ICE detained a mother in Chula Vista when she dropped off her kids. Left kids in car. How traumatic for all who witnessed and for those poor kids

Ignorance is how we got here. Sigh.

Been warning about this, but been brushed off as being a drama queen.

“Attacks on ICE agents are up 1,000%” Tony Gonzales (TX-R)

Bullsh*t

HOW do we know there is any increase (of any %) when their “data” is not presented with a “baseline” of assaults?

ICE began 2003
ICE is safer than Policing
If ICE assaults are☝️
What qualifies as “assault”?
🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️

Yes, the big one right now. Isn’t it outside of L.A?

I keep sharing photos on IG because it’s fast and easy and I can share more than 4 at a time. Here’s a garden dump for you, my Bluesky people.

First, today’s (goth) sunflowers:
