I found that I could not remember cerise, so I looked around and found this: www.colorhexa.com/color-names

Lady of Shalott climber Rich orange-red buds open to chalice-shaped blooms, filled orange petals. The surrounding outer petals are salmon-pink with beautifully contrasting golden-yellow undersides. There is a pleasant, warmTea fragrance, with hints of spiced apple and cloves. Photo by Rubina Kazi.

A new study found that the United States was responsible for 55 percent of the pollution emitted by private jets globally.

Bondi just said DHS is helping rid us of criminals from the Sinaloa Cartel, but she failed to mention the asylum she gave to family members of the Sinaloa Cartel. She also said we're ridding the country of MS-13, but failed to mention the asylum she's giving to MS-13 leaders in the Abrego case.

Was working on something else, but got bitten by this idea and it just wouldn't go away until it was painted. So uhhhhh moths 🦋

Schrier to RFK Jr: You gave Cassidy the answer he needed to hear in order to get his confirmation vote, then as soon as you were secretary you turned around & fired all 17 members. You lied. I also want to be clear that I will lay all responsibility for every vaccine-preventable death at your feet.

I can’t speak for every city, but here in LA, ICE bounty hunters aren’t going after gang members. They’re hunting the vulnerable: gardeners, street vendors, day laborers. Easy money, no risk. Folks need to stop pretending this is about crime. @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social—thank you for your words.

This is not a budget bill, it is a debt and deportation bill — and one built on the fascist foundation laid by the Heritage Foundation’s now-notorious Project 2025.

Well, gosh, whoda thunk

More Bullfinches here this year. Even given their size, they still get bullied off the feeders by diminutive Siskins.

Come on, people. Have you no decency? Whose idea was it to glitter bomb ICE? ☠️ 😂

“I feel like I’m dying” “I feel like I’ve been lied to” The words of an anti-vax chiropractor who become seriously ill with measles and spread it to his kids, who then also became seriously ill. All four kids were hospitalized. You *were* lied to. And you wanted to believe that lie.

CHATGPT on the Trump war: Article 5 is a collective defense clause, stating that an attack on one NATO member is considered an attack on all. However, it only applies if a NATO member is attacked, not if a member initiates a conflict.. NATO out.

Pretty important stuff in here www.wired.com/story/iran-f...

BREAKING: The White House lashed out at the creators of this ad for "fear-mongering". It must have really struck a nerve. Maybe they don't like being outed as fascists. You know what to do: SPREAD THIS EVERYWHERE! #MAGAKidnappers

Timeline cleanse. I saw a bunny today

Bluesky you deserve some fireflies in a cornfield. Not pictured-the young hawk chased away by robins, the enormous kale after the rain, the smell of the tomato plant leaves.

New in PN: Trump’s reckless Iran strikes could backfire spectacularly "America has entered few wars with less forethought, less deliberation, and more contempt for the public. Trump has recklessly endangered the country and world. It’s not much consolation that he may also have endangered himself."

With regard to focus and prioritizing at this moment in history: I'm pretty sure that nothing any of us could post in a thread on Bluesky dot com tonight is going to affect global geopolitics. And it's OK to keep posting about many things. Also here's a picture of a mama hen, chicks, and a rooster.

Welp.

Our nation and planet cannot survive four years of this. It is not sustainable.

The U.S. Senate is currently considering a budget reconciliation bill that quietly includes language that could devastate our public lands. It would: - Make over 250 million acres of public land eligible for sale - Mandate the sale of at least 2 million acres of Forest Service and BLM land

There is an issue with flies coming into the house. Normal people: gets flypaper or something. Me:

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

87-year-old veteran arrested before Trump's parade. The story behind the arrest of 87-year-old veteran John Spitzberg at the Capitol

RFK Jr. is going to kill thousands of people. That’s not hyperbole.

Senator Padilla makes an excellent point: if the FBI and Secret Service were willing to physically remove a Senator they had just escorted into the room, force him down on the floor and cuff him because he tried to ask a question What do you think they & ICE do to regular people?

Ouch. #TrumpsTrillionsTransfer

"The town Select Board is reviewing claims the ICE processing center is being used as detention center against their zoning code by keeping detainees in inadequate conditions for longer than a few hours, as originally intended..." www.nbcboston.com/news/local/b...

We don’t know what the real name of the Director of White House Personnel is, we don’t know what country he came from, he refuses to turn in background check forms, and nobody will ask the president or press secretary about it.

“A horrible display of waste… rotting fruits and vegetables… store after store closed… if the ice raids continue be ready for even bigger sticker shock when you go grocery shopping…” 🍎 🥕

If you took the $1.1 trillion earned by just 100 billionaires last year and mailed every household a check, it'd be $8,700 each. The thing is most billionaires don't actually pay taxes anymore. What the GOP bill is really doing is selling off public lands and cutting Medicare to pay off oligarchs.

Republicans say they’re targeting just criminals and gang members. Bullsh*t. They’re targeting anyone who “looks illegal”. And it will only get worse. They need to make their 3,000 a day quota no matter what. #MAGAKidnappers
