under-appreciated aspect of Pacific Northwest culture is that wherever you live, you will have The Mountain. It varies place by place but you will always have that One to which you are deeply personally and metaphysically attached. Always one β€” like Portland had two so they had to blow one up

Big Tech has lived by, β€œMove Fast and Break Things.” So they destroyed everything quickly and now we are here.

No more.

Indigenous practices have always shown us that the way is to Move Slow and Repair Things. Plant, grow, replenish, reparations, regenerate.

President Trump just shut off funding for law enforcement, farmers, schools, veterans, and health care.

We are working diligently to reverse this, but we are preparing for every outcome to help Minnesotans weather this storm.

Minnesota needs answers. We’ll see Trump in court.

So good to see you here. So far BlueSky seems more verbal than visual. Hope I'm wrong, but I'm grateful you will be bringing your beautiful art (and nature photos?).

Stay strong. For us, this is more than just a job-it’s a calling. Together, we will stand to protect our parks, environment, and wildlife. Four years… we remain hopeful that the attack on our public lands will be less brutal this time.
