My favorite cactus at Desert Botanical Garden in Phoenix.

It's estimated that 1 in 200,000 #saguaro cacti grow a crest formation beginning at about 60 to 80 years old.

Hike to the falls this morning. Sound up

If he flies with one, dines with one and parties with one for years, he’s probably one himself.

YouTube video by Katie Phang White House in TOTAL TAILSPIN After Trump’s BIZARRE New Pick

Trump continues his crusade of nominating incompetent sycophants to key positions that impact all Americans.

His pick for the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, E.J. Antoni, is “utterly unqualified” but kissing Trump’s derriere is the only requirement these days.

It’s amazing that Washington DC can achieve its lowest crime rate in 30 years when 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue is experiencing its highest crime rate in history.

🌍 Eurasian Blue Tit (Cyanistes caeruleus) The Eurasian Blue Tit is a small, colourful bird with a blue cap, wings, and tail, a white face with a dark eye-stripe, and a yellowish belly. They are widespread across Europe and parts of western Asia, inhabiting woodlands, parks, and gardens. Blue Tits are highly active and agile foragers, often seen clinging upside down on branches to find insects. They are non-migratory and frequently visit bird feeders, especially during winter. They typically nest in tree holes or nest boxes. 2.5 Flash (Edited) Nine subspecies are recognised.

"None Of These Books Are Obscene": Judge Strikes Down Much of Florida's Book Ban Bill In a major win for intellectual freedom, a judge rules against Florida law that led to removing hundreds of books from school libraries.

“None Of These Books Are Obscene”: Judge Strikes Down Much of Florida’s Book Ban Bill

New method of meeting people.

Trump has halted or dropped enforcement actions against 160+ corporations, including:

-42 consumer protection cases at CFPB
-20 foreign bribery cases at DOJ
-6 employment discrimination cases at EEOC
-7 crypto cases at SEC

It's a new golden age for corporate criminals.

A calm moment: a brown and white juvenile hawk perched on a dead twig above green vegetation and purple flowers ©️DTL 2025

A juvenile red-shouldered hawk who took a few wildly unsuccessful swoops at some young green herons. Then it dive-bombed some juvie great egrets, all which led to much squawking and no one getting anything to eat 🪶

So, rabbit, I’m faster than you & the turtle!

A 79 year-old felon with dementia, compromised by Russia ,is going to meet alone with a former KGB agent without translators.

What could possibly go wrong?

I gave the dog some cheese, and now she’s just following me around the house horfling hopefully. The horfling gets louder whenever I move kitchen-wards.

Olympic National Park in Washington.
Just Imagine how it would look at night.

Putin has arrived in Alaska, and there he is 100% being welcomed as an important guest. A dictator who started the biggest war since the end of World War II, who killed and tortured hundreds of thousands of people, who abducted tens of thousands of children, is still being received as a guest.

ALABAMA: “The verdict is in. The state’s tough immigration law just isn’t working out… American workers not mentally or physically fit enough to last one day…”

Now this one is funny 🤣

Dogs are all in all the time if they heard you and if they care.

This baby donkey video will not disappoint... 😊 #bluesky

Stunning! An 8-hour time-lapse to show the Earth is rotating while capturing the Milky Way.

Trump won't stop until he's reduced the credibility of every pillar of the American economy. Watch Stuart Stevens on MSNBC:

I smell food.

And the fine for illegal fly fishing!
