I've been collecting articles about exciting new battery storage solutions. I use them to push back against the false narrative that we have to strip-mine the world for copper, lithium etc. Why rely on tech that's going to be outdated in the near term?

Reminder that no matter who you are, there will be a significant number of people who treat you with disdain. Let it roll off & carry on.

The question before me now is how to heal those lineages and legacy of dispossession? The answers will take the rest of my life to uncover, & will never be enough. Healing our broken relationship with the land is a start. As such, I stand prepared to do what is needed, however I am called. 2/2

Can't stop with the sky photos. Is this a sky born nudibranch?
Storm clouds - wispy tendrils looking like a nudibranch. A saguaro is in the left hand side of the frame. Primary colors are blue and white.

There are days when just running errands is enough winning for the day. Today is such a day. 😴🤷‍♀️

Part of the mindset that looks at people as 'resources' who can be turned off and on at will. 🤬

Barrel cactus. Stunning colors during a time of the year that few other blooms are happening.

Thunder clouds over the Santa Catalina mountains. The clouds are illuminated and are a vibrant yellow orange. They are reflected in the wet street.

Same. The Catholic Worker Movement is also compelling. 12 yrs Catholic schooling & most impactful class was Peace & Justice. I tell my MAGA parents that's how I got radicalized. Liberation theology & all that. Still can't tolerate a typical Mass tho.

We were in Kanab a few days ago and there was one parked in the hotel lot. Mild-mannered looking hiking couple, prolly in their 60s. They had a 'Send E to Mars' sticker on the back & I wanted to ask if they put it there or what. I will never understand the compulsion.

Heard a fun story about Baraboo WI this summer. Friend was there during the intl clown conference some years ago. Went to a restaurant filled with clowns in full costume. Apparently they needed to stay in character for the duration. Personally, I would have bailed post haste.
