A new #birddivination wrote itself in me. They keep astonishing, these strange visitations. This one might be my favorite of all. The original 100 and the story behind them are at almanacofbirds.org. This one is available as a solo print and card at bit.ly/warbler-time

How do I focus on laundry when the world’s on fire?
Maybe that’s exactly what we doβ€”brush teeth, sip tea, weed the garden.
Steady ourselves with small rituals.
Root in the real.
Remember what matters.
And when the time comes, rise ready to fight for the world we believe in.

Recently escaped for some solitude in nature. It is the only thing that ever seems to fully restore my soul. Sunrises are my favorite.

I love when I go camping in places and hear them at night. One of my favorite sounds.

LIFE HACK: Answer your phone "Hello you're on the air" and 99% of the time people will just hang up.

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1,000 a month. A year later, nearly half of participants said they had housing. Participants in Denver's basic-income program reported having more-secure housing, though results were similar in the trial and control groups.

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1k/month. A year later, nearly half had housing.

They also had fewer ER visits, nights spent in a hospital, and jail stays.

The report estimates that this reduction in public service use SAVED the city $589k.

I post about politics, climate, feminism, but also poetry and beauty because we have to remember what we're for, as well as what we're against.

Ten Years On, Algal Blooms Continue to Plague Lake Erie Despite millions of dollars spent on cleanup efforts, growing number of factory farms in Ohio stymies progress.

Story and photos I did for Earth Island Journal in Sept. The scary part? We still had a lingering bloom in Lake Erie into November this year.

It says you can’t be messaged but I just want to say I cried like a baby watching Butterfly in the Sky, (while on an airplaneπŸ˜‚) realizing my love of storytelling and why I do what I do was a direct result of growing up with Reading Rainbow. πŸ˜πŸ’œ

I followed so many #scientists and #journalists today! That was my favorite part of the social media site I X-ited. Woohoo!

When Qualified Women Resist the Leader Label Women who demonstrate leadership behaviors and traits are less likely than men to identify as leaders.

Told a friend I can’t decide at what point I start sharing more of my opinion or if I’m more influential using my voice selectively. (Example: I’m outspoken about environment but limit political opinions due to freelancing.) He sent me this article. Thoughts?
