did you hear? they're saying if you open your eyes to it, love is everywhere to be found. its everywhere its everywhere its everywhere
When you're a kid you just take trees for granted. Then when you get to be an adult you realize that a fully mature tree cannot be created in an amount of time that fits in a convenient landscaping timeframe for love nor money nor all the powers of science. Then you realize that people are very very very cavalier about chopping them down
You know what I know I'm usually pretty silent but I need you all to understand the horrible impact SpaceX and Starship has had on South Texas.
Yes, fuck those ugly ass cyber trucks but FUCK that Space Center.
Starship genuine danger to the people who live here. It's to the point many of the people here when they heard the explosion joked that it was probably another one of Elon's rockets.
This is a horrifying pattern we are becoming numb to, we hear about a planned test launch and brace ourselves for more debris.
Several of Musk's attempts at rockets, especially after the deregulation, have resulted in catastrophic explosions. Want the list? Here are a few!!
December 9th, 2020- Starship serial No. 8, or SN8. Exploded upon landing.
February 2, 2021- Starship SN9. Exploded upon landing.
March 3rd. 2021- Starship SN10. Landed in one piece. Fire at the skirt caused an explosion.
April 20, 2023- Starship. Exploded once more. Debris scattered in Port Isabell.
March 6, 2025- Flight 8. Spun out of control and exploded in a mass of fireballs. Planes had to be grounded due to the mass explosion and the debris are stills scattered in the ocean.
And now we have the most recent and the worse one yet.
June 18-19, 2025- Starship 36 during a GROUND test caused a mass explosion, the looming mushroom cloud causing locals in Cameron to believed they had been bombed.
The loser describes this it as a "rapid unscheduled disassembly" instead of what they are: fiery failures locals have to deal with as a result.
Pretty much everyone locally knows Elon Musk and his negative impact on our home, people who have had the unfortunate curse to have worked with him and the center call it Cultish, 8 members of his staff who spoke out against his behavior and sexual harassment were all fired.
Its a well known fact he hates the people here, and he goes out of his way to find employees who are not from this area and move them down here.
Musk has tried to encourage even more white people to come down to South Texas and live in his "Starship City". An attempt to gentrify and push out local citizens.
Rebekah Hinojosa, a local Activist with Another Gulf Is Possible, even had her home unlawfully entered by police after an alleged graffiti on a mural he commisioned (which didn't even obscure the mural).
This article is a good read on everything Musk has done to South Texas
One day last month, Juan Mancias, the chief of the Carrizo Comecrudo tribe of Texas, and two companions headed to Boca Chica village, a bays
I am TIRED of this going unnoticed and unheard of the People of The Valley. I need you to stop laughing and start taking this seriously.
If you want to read more on all the insane shit this man has done to South Texas here are a few more Articles I would Recommend

Engineering teams around the world have been attempting to develop new methods of seawater desalination.
Scientists in China have developed a more efficient form of solar desalination that uses 47.4% less energy than alternatives. After the first year of testing, the scientists believe that at scale it would be able to desalinate water more cheaply than producing bottled water.
The goal is now to scale the technology for use in coastal areas and islands experiencing water insecurity.

At least 9,235 volunteers drew two million buildings for rescuers they will never meet. Every edit is in the logs. I charted them.
Im gonna be honest, how did I NOT get into bird watching sooner???
It's like when I started learning more about plants and suddenly the world opened up even more than before, everywhere there were old friends and new things to learn and fields of flowers to remark on walking or driving by. Dozens of edible things even in an old yard, radically different than what I'd been sold in a grocery store. Edible petals and jams and fig leaf syrup.
Suddenly the bird songs dont all mesh into one, there's the high peep of the hummingbird, and the pebbles falling down a metal washboard of the always-calling towhee, and the little chirps and alarm calls of the robins and their nest full of babies. There's early morning nectar sipping of the scabiosa and primrose, and a mother perched in the oregon grapes picking them alongside me, and the bi-weekly fight between the red-tailed Hawks and juvenile bald eagle above. Nests in the garden entryway and the tree I take breaks in the shade under and the old ash limbs.
And it didnt happen all at once, its interests that were building and being engaged with in different ways and places, but sometimes it feels like there's a moment - like using Merlin to match songs to the birds singing them and suddenly hearing every individual voice in the chorus, or realizing half the weeds in your garden bed are also food - where you unlock a new level. And it makes the world bigger and closer and more familiar and more intriguing and you notice all the differences and you love them each! For what! They are!!!
Keep chasing curiosity!!! Keep trying to find out a little more or identify that new thing or check out a new place! Even in the darkest of times there are 1 million creatures and beings that have shared this earth with us for millenia living alongside us, and there is so much meaning and connection to be found there!

A complete and ethical guide to dyeing wool with plants, mushrooms, and lichens from the Pacific Northwest.
Can I interest you in backing this awesome book? If you back in the next few hours (it's currently 5am July 9 2026) you get a bit of a discount on the physical book.
This is going to be such a great resource, and the dye materials discussed also occur outside the region.

The sound of cicadas and the sight of dragonflies and a butterfly at the lake a couple years ago. Mid to late July is insect time in Pennsylvania, at least in droughtless years. Young birds just fledged have no problem finding protein-rich meals everywhere which is why so many birds fly up from the tropics for nesting season. For them summer here is the promised land.
USA Native Plant Resource Masterlist
Because Google is totally useless and won't help you with ANYTHING
iNaturalist: Take photos of living things you see, post them, and the community will identify them for you. Data from iNaturalist is used in scientific research.
Wildflower.org Plant Database: Enter search criteria and find some plants. Very useful if you're looking for plants with specific qualities or know what you have in mind.
Native Plant Finder: This website is still in beta and is a work in progress, but it will show you plants for your area ranked by the number of butterflies that use them for their caterpillars.
WildflowerSearch: AMAZING resource for identification and for learning about new plants. Shows you where plants are native/not native, TONS of search filters.
Native Plant Trust: A New England organization, but probably useful to anyone.
Northern Forest Atlas: Great images and identification resources for trees; has good pictures of bark, seeds, buds, leaves.
FloraFinder: Another plant database site that's being slowly built up by a passionate nerd.
MonarchWatch milkweed by USA ecoregion: Tells you what milkweed species you should plant for monarch butterflies.
Native Beeology: Not plants, but a closely related subject.
I will add more and post an updated list as I find more.
I made a pitcher of chilled blue butterfly pea tea (from our vines). It's heavily mixed with juices from blackberries from our garden and blueberries from our community garden. It has a gorgeous indigo hue💙🥤. Very refreshing and healthy ✨.
The clethra is in bloom and the whole garden smells sweet!
As I feel compelled to share any wholesome Sandhill Crane content that I find, I hope you will enjoy this great video from Busch Wildlife Sanctuary. (I added a watermark so hopefully they won’t mind me yoinking this vid to share with y’all here)
The rescue posted that this little family has been spotted several times since the introduction and they seem to be doing great 🥹
Please consider donating to this organization to help fund their efforts in wildlife rehabilitation if you are able!

Onto Aptera
June 12 2026 - wildflowers, ruins, and stuff
Driving up to Aptera.. so very dry. We were told this is a pretty delicate ecosystem, especially up on the higher mountains, and they are all protected areas.
Wildflowers and a sign. I've learned that when you're busy traveling, and more importantly, traveling with busy or just incurious people, you have to take pictures of the signs of info and keep running, with the hope you'll read it later.
"The ancient Aptera is one of the most important city-states in Crete. It is already referred to in the linear B tablets (14th-13th century BCE). Its excellent location has proved ideal for its development into a powerful commercial and political centre. Its two harbors, Minoa (present Marathi), and Kissamos at both sides of the entrances of the Souda bay secured the control of naval activity.
In the 4th c. BCE, as most independent cities of Crete, it was capable to mint its own coin. The era of its greatest peak was during the Hellenistic period. According to the epigraphic and philological testimonies, the city has developed foreign relationships with the large centers of the Hellenistic territory during the 3rd and 2nd cent. BCE.
During the Roman period, as a result of the enforcement of the "roman peace", the city experiences a new period of peak which is verified by the big public buildings preserved until today.
The city continued to be inhabited until the Byzantine period (7th cent. AD), when it was destroyed by a powerful earthquake. To its final destruction contributed the Saracens pirates' raids.
In the 11 cent. AD, the existence of the monastery of St. John the Theologian is reported at this site. The monastery was founded at a central part of the ancient city and functioned until 1962."
Abandoned monastery but hey there were interesting public restrooms, for which we were grateful.
It was so dry.
Papaver
The ancient Roman baths - or was it the cistern? If memory serves, men were allowed in at certain times, and women at other times, but kept entirely separate.
Incredibly old olive tree.
The kids on Tiktok were right actually
Making masks rules
I think the beads really complete the look
For the folks curious about templates, these are the shapes I cut from cardboard. I added a couple little pieces of cereal box cardboard as structural support in various points, like the bridge of the nose and behind the beak. Also, I ended up cutting the forehead piece a little smaller, which I marked on the paper, but I kept the template size in case you want to see how it originally looked.
@blackbearmagic made a bunch of cool templates for the workshop I'm going to do in December, too. I'll get a few photos of those later.
I think my favorite part of this was how different your mask looks from all the ones I've made so far, and not just because you made a bird and I've been making mammals
It's a completely different piece of wearable art. It has a different soul. It has a different feel.
I think everyone should make a mask of their favorite animal to wear, even if they're not a therian. I think the world would be a healthier, happier place if everyone made a cardboard replica of their favorite animal's face.
Bear's mask templates! I just want to stress that our masks are extremely low tech and budget friendly. They're made out of cardboard, hot glue, and fleece, with an elastic band in the back. I used a little sheer black fabric I had leftover from my terror bird costume for the eyes.
Fleece and felt are very forgiving fabrics and you can basically just cut a single large piece and stretch it to fit, gluing it to the cardboard one small section at a time. The fabric was the only purchase we made for these, and it was in the form of thrift store blankets.
It's easy! It's fun! Go do it now!!!
hi yeah this is good advice and you 🫵 should do it
this was all stuff i had lying around, most of it was obtained for other craft projects that i haven't yet gotten around to
go make a fun little mask. go crazy go stupid.
Hell yeah this RULES
