There are no dogs here unfortunately. I do try to yank them by the short hairs just in case, but we had almost an inch of rain here so far this year, & they have gone absolutely wild! 😬💚

The moment before our lips touch

Some grow 3-6' tall virtually overnight, dry out & become tumbleweeds full of thorns. Those I try to eliminate. I'm losing the battle on grasses & foxtails.😬⚡️💚

One of the handymen has goats. We'd have to rig up some kind of portable fencing for them, but it's that or a weed eater for the grasses I'm terribly allergic to (dangling participle notwithstanding). The invasivebgrass is definitely winning. 😹💚

It's only 61°F and fairly cloudy right now.❄️🥶 @scottculkin.bsky.social sent his rain clouds ENE to my high desert.🤣🤪

invasive mustard weed with delicate and wispy yellow flowers and salad like greens - but do not eat them - a seakelpie blurry pix

Weed definitely?

another weed with reddish stalks and green leaves and tiny spear-like stems that become tiny purple flowers but we used to pull the spears and let them dry out to make barbie doll size swords or closed parasols depending on the sister involved - a seakelpie blurry pix

another sage green weed with pink buds and white flower surrounded by assorted invasive grasses and other weeds - a seakelpie blurry pix

a clump of green weeds or wildflowers with yellow flowers and orange center among invasive grasses and other weeds - a seakelpie blurry pix

A matter of perspective - weed or wildflower?

Black eagle ray with white spots gliding thru the water over a coral reef and sandy ocean bottom.

Young and small Spotted Eagle Ray that I tagged along with yesterday. About 2.5 feet across.

The Trump admin tried to use emergency rulemaking to erase the Board of Immigration Appeals, requiring that basically all appeals (which cost $1,000 to file!) be summarily dismissed without any review.

Thanks to our @immcouncil.org legal team and others, the rule is now BLOCKED!

Attention: False video of Aaron Parnas generated by AI, being circulated, that Iran has taken over 100 of our troops hostage.

Not true. He has asked us to spread the news.

This is the real FAKE NEWS. No troops no hostages.

Other businesses win but the consumer gets a kick in the pants. Nothing more "Trump Regime" than that.

@AzPetrich Why do Republicans say AOC is "just a bartender" when she has a masters degree in economics, but they don't say Markwayne Mullin is just a plumber? HINT: racism and misogyny

On this page, MAGA regularly mocks @aoc.bsky.social as “just a bartender,” yet no one asks what makes Markwayne Mullin a national security expert. No military service. No intelligence background. No related education or law enforcement training.

An osprey.

Our beloved OB Pier is just for the birds now. Including a local osprey! 😍

Such is the nature of dogma, sadly.

Separating a religion from its dogma is also impossible, as both are one and the same.

Murky days make for good fishing if you’re a predator like this double crested cormorant #doublecrestedcormorant #cormorant #murky #seabirdsofcoralcity #coralcitycamera

Tidying the nest.

My lil grandkitty is keeping me grounded while I grieve the bittersweet empty nest coming soon. My old kitty passed last year, but knowing my stepdaughter has this lil snugglebutt for her early adult life launch gives me joy.
