The goal in CPTSD recovery is not to handle each trigger or reaction as they occur. It's to get back on track realistically building a life we value-- & use our evolving skillset to manage whatever stands in the way of that.

Sustainable recovery is proactive, not reactive.

Good night everyone

I cannot overstate the transformative power of the Hubble in its effect on my life, my spirituality, my healing from an abusive childhood; everything. It showed me Reality. I love it so much.

This Griffon Vulture flew right overhead at the Barranc Del Cint Alcoi about an hour from Pinoso. This one is ringed but cannot make out the detail. Absolutely massive birds and so impressive to watch soar on the thermals. #birds #birdphotography #birdsseenin2025 #vulture

Hope today’s treating you gently or at least not asking more than you’ve got to give. Some days aren’t for fixing or pushing forward. Just noticing what’s still with you. If you’re tired, rest. If you’re restless, walk. Thanks for being here. You make the quiet less lonely.

A colorful nebula. The image’s top-left is filled with layers of fluffy pink and greenish clouds. Long strands of green clouds stretch out from here; a faint layer of translucent blue dust combines with them to create a three-dimensional scene. A sparse network of dark dust clouds in the foreground adds reddish-black patches atop the nebula. Blue-white and orange stars, from our galaxy and beyond, are spread throughout the clouds.

The anti-tax rich people love it. Progressive income taxes have been replaced by regressive tariffs - basically a sales tax where the poor pay a higher % of their income

“I love making women upset” is a really underestimated motivation of modern conservatism

I mean tbh they were also already always coddling white men.

The wildest thing about this era is watching so many institutions say out loud yeah, we’re done committing ourselves to excellence, we’re going to specialize in the coddling of mediocre white men

It is natural to know despair in dark times, to feel dread and uncertainty. But do not immerse yourself in doom. Seek out joy and light, wherever you can find it, to keep despair from being the only feeling you have space for.

Your future self is going to thank you for not giving up.

Juvenile Heermann's gull (very dark all over) in flight, flying over very very shallow water. Flying to the right maybe two feet off the ground. It's shadow is to the right. Just below the shadow is a reflection on the sheen of water.

Got this really cool, ghostly picture by accident the other day in Dillon Beach, CA. It is a Heermann's gull with both it's shadow and reflection.

You may have noticed that I did not upload pika photos from my last trip to Rainier.

I want to assure you, my dedicated public, that this was not because I didn't take pika photos.

I remain committed to documenting North America's roundest boi.
