Curious to know what's the conservative response to the military meeting at Quantico yesterday. I'm seeing a few positive comments, and a few anonymous negative ones, but in general, there's very little information out there.

She Won. They Didn't Just Change the Machines. They Rewired the Election. How Leonard Leo's 2021 sale of an electronics firm enabled tech giants to subvert the 2024 election.

This is why drumpf said we'd never have to vote for him again. Project 2025 told us they had some special surprises in store for us.

Former Biden State Department spokesman Matthew Miller now admits Israel has β€œwithout a doubt” committed war crimes, and Israel’s soldiers are not being held accountable.

WE THE PEOPLE are letting our feelings be known. This is only the beginning of our grassroots movement. We know we have a lot yet to do to turn this debacle around. Together, we CAN!

We expressed our dissent at how the current administration is willfully damaging our countryside, our people's lives, our revered institutions, our Constitution, our economy, our freedoms. (And that’s just the domestic issues!) #SaveOurDemocracy

Not one capitol building was broken into yesterday. Not one police officer was attacked.
The people who participated in the Hands Off rallies across our country yesterday gathered peacefully and with a BIG voice. #SaveOurDemocracy

"Wilderness is a word of many meanings. From a place to be feared to a place to be revered,
wilderness evokes images of wild animals, jagged mountains, vast prairies or deserts. For
some, wilderness offers physical challenges, solitude or a respite from a complex,
technological society."

I'm losing track. How many conflict of interest does this bandit now have?

It grows all over east TN. All our trees aren't healthy. I'm going to try some on some old Redbud trees that have a lot of dead branches.

Does anybody here in southeast USA know if Usnea only grows on dead or dying trees? How about old trees with some dying areas? Also, have you found they seem to have a tree species preference? I'm trying to introduce it to our wooded areas here on our property. I'm not finding a lot of information.

I think the reason drumph moved the inaugural address inside the Capitol Rotunda is because it's small and can easily be filled. His need for a big crowd, THE BIGGEST EVER, will not be an issue there. No photos of empty seats βœ…οΈ

I used to be big time into aquaria... I only have one tank now - just plants. Thinking about getting back into this hobby.

The Golden Hour- looking out over Castle Valley, Utah this past April. We stayed in this town, that's near Moab, for a month.

Found these Lion's Mane fungi growing on a log stump at a friend's house a few days ago. How difficult is it to collect a wee bit of this and try to transplant it into my yard, I wonder? We have lots of oak trees here, so can likely find some logs.
