Muscatine, Iowa has an arboretum!

the arrest of a judge by ICE and FBI for such bullshit reasons is a Rubicon crossing moment. not the last, but a major one.

I miss Leaf Kitchen breakfasts. The garlic roasted potatoes with olives.

Who wants some good news? The overwintering monarch population, which had plummeted last winter, has doubled this winter! www.worldwildlife.org/stories/east...

Boycott Airbnb! They’re DOGE!

Is it weird that there are no letter writing campaigns set up for Susan Crawford? I want to help Wisconsin and there are no campaigns.
