J.D. Vance flees to Vermont for a cozy vacation, gets confronted by a handful of protesters, and immediately scurries into hiding. The guy lecturing Zelensky on bravery can’t even handle a few angry locals with cardboard signs. Absolute clown.

I wonder if Amy Gleason even knows she's in charge of DOGE. www.linkedin.com/in/gleasonam...

just sipping coffee and catching up on the horrors and screaming

The remedy to a president who refuses to follow the law is impeachment.

#Bonsai, it’s what I do. It’s 21°F (-6°C) outside here in central Texas. It’s a balmy 72°F (22°C) inside the greenhouse. I’m the caretaker of some of the workshop trees for this years’ Texas convention in September. Here are the Red Stem Sea Hibiscus. This is a hard cutback to encourage back budding

Musk totally humiliated Trump during their joint Oval Office press conference. Musk brought along his 4-year-old son — making Trump look like the kid’s babysitter — disrespectfully wore a T-shirt and baseball cap, and even interrupted Trump. It’s clear who’s really in control, and it ain’t Trump.

#Bonsai, it’s what I do. European Olive I bought at the Pacific Bonsai Expo. Repotted…

Maddow: If you don't have Bluesky yet, I recommend it. It is a social media network that doesn't make me want to stab myself in the eye with a rusty fork

PLEASE SHARE.

Does “Golden Age” refer to a time when planes keep crashing, eggs cost $10–15 a dozen, the U.S. is being booed and protested by all our allies, workers are losing their jobs, and Americans’ personal data is being rummaged through by unelected oligarchs and their strange crew of 20-something incels?

#Bonsai, it’s what I do. Cedar Elm repots.

THIS! 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

#Bonsai, it’s what I do. Asian Festival Exhibit. 1/3

Another Bonsai Style that I have always enjoyed the forest something about these small communities of trees, expertly crafted for their health makes me want more in my everyday society. #bonsai #bonsaiart #pot #Japanese #art #sculpture #nature #plants #trees

Lunar New Year is tomorrow. City government celebrates by hosting an Asian Festival. This year it’s Saturday and Sunday. Local Bonsai Society puts up an exhibit. Here is what I’ve put together to show. #Bonsai, it’s what I do.

Who turns out to be the biggest employer of DEI? Donald Trump. Every person he nominated was not based on merit. Was not based on experience. And not based on competence. Their employment was purely based on their level of corruption and desire to kiss his ass. DEI - Donald's Entitled Idiots.

#Bonsai, It’s what I do. Unpacking from my trip to Japan. Last things: dirty clothes in the laundry hamper. Suiseki. Waterfall stones, distant mountain stones, hut stone, arch stone.

My Ume plum bloom soon. #bonsai #ume #mizuplants

Might’ve accidentally talked way too much about swords in an interview. But it’s true. I’ve always liked swords. Here’s the one my dad made for me as a kid, when I was only about this big. I painted the blade in sparkly silver nail polish to make it shine.

I would hate for this picture of Mark Zuckerberg staring down the shirt of Jeff Bezos’ fiancée Lauren Sanchez during Donald Trump’s inauguration to go viral. Would be such a shame for Zuck.

Little Scot’s pine with initial wiring applied to give some basic shape for this years growing season. Several major branches removed which were either growing in the wrong place, or in the wrong direction. #bonsai #yamadori

Me. 51. Not watching the inauguration. Wearing the Coven necklace @tenth-muse.com got me during the war on Christmas.

#Bonsai, it’s what I do. Unpacking from my trip to Japan. Minis & Shohin. Large Jitas, root stands, and traditional ’in the box’ stands.

Wishing this absolute rockstar the happiest of birthdays! Thank you for everything you do to make this world a better place. Proud to be along for this crazy ride! @muellershewrote.bsky.social @dailybeanspod.bsky.social

One of the many stunning bonsai at today’s Taikanten Bonsai Exhibition in Kyoto, Japan

#Bonsai, it’s what I do. Unpacking from my adventures in Japan. Jitas. Shohin & Mame (minis)

#Bonsai, it’s what I do. Unpacking from my adventures in Japan. Pots I got from exhibitions and bonsai gardens. Shohin.

#Bonsai, it’s what I do. Getting ready to board my plane back to the states from Japan. Visits to Gafu-ten & Meifu-ten. Also visited over 20 gardens, growers, and sellers. Going home with pots, stands, and suikei. It’s been a great 10 days.

🤔 I certainly think so. I still have so many questions about the entire ‘episode’. Just me?
