What a different world we could have.

Monday morning ✨️

Beachcombing theme from yesterday: chonky pottery

My strategy at Costco: donate one of the things sold in sets, to the food bank/ local food drives (bc let's be real, I don't need two jugs of syrup at a time). It's still less expensive!

At least this lil guy looks happy on this Monday...

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942.

I know. I was there in those camps.

As a botany undergrad, I studied mycology. Fungi were thought of as non-green plants in the kingdom Plantae. Now, thanks to modern genetics, we know that fungi are more like very slow animals, in the clade Opisthokonta. A mushroom is closer to your dog than to a tree.

You know how Beyonce or T Swift will surprise drop a new track and the internet will lose its collective shit and every social media post will be about that track for a few days? These executive orders are like that, but from hell.

A fun beachcombing find!

A tweet from Monty Hall says: "This is why these DEI conversations are funny to me. The Black guy had to achieve countless high-ranking military positions, earn the Silver Star, and be a four-star General to be considered for Secretary of Defense. Meanwhile, the other guy just had to be in the Army…SMDH." Below is an embedded tweet with two images: on the left, a Black man in a decorated military uniform, and on the right, a white man in a casual outfit with an American flag shirt and loose tie. The caption reads: "We went from Black excellence and class to just straight up trash."

DEI exists to help right the historic wrong of unqualified white dudes always getting the gig.

The only Fox News you should be listening to.

"If they pounced to the north-east, they killed on 73% of their attacks; if they jumped in the opposite direction,,,, 60%. In all other directions, only 18% of their pounces were successful".

NOW: More than 98% of #Costco shareholders have just rejected an anti-DEI measure

The attempt to force Costco to audit their #DEI work was by an anti-inclusion lobby group:

"The proponent's broader agenda is not reducing risk for the Company but abolition of diversity initiatives." - Costco Board

I loved capturing the reflection of the trees in this little tidepool. The sound of the waves is so soothing, too!!
