Hey #nativeplant friends! Many of you already know how great planting with landscape plugs is, but we thought we'd write up a blog about it for newer gardeners! We still have sun and shade plugs left for sale in the Nursery 🌱 www.laurensgardenservice.com/benefits-of-...

If you were out in the streets today, thanks. If you left feeling inspired, please seek out local ways that you can keep organizing with others.

My libertarian uncle went to the Lexington, MA protest, seemingly to observe the crowd condescendingly. I asked if there were frogs. He, surprised, said yes, three, what is that about? The frogs had not reached him. The frogs are not for him 🐸

notice the general mood of the timeline? how everyone is in a good mood and there’s a lot less misery and dooming? how there’s a lot of “we’re going to beat these assholes”?

anyway that’s why these events are important

No Kings Manhattan (NYC had several so this is only the one in Midtown)
A woman in a black leather jacket with two yellow stickers on her back. One is a picture of Trump with the words, "notorious P.I.G." the other says "I.C.E. America's Gestapo" in the background there's more people including one holding up a sign saying Democracy Doesn't Fear Protests - Dictators do. You can see a tiny bit of an American flag. A poster with a blue background. In the center sits and orange monarch butterfly. The text around it reads, "the only legitimate monarch here. No Kings" New York City - Times Square. Against all of the billboards and giant screens an American flag flies. But it is no ordinary American flag. While the stars are all there the stripes have been recolored from red and white to the rainbow colors of the Pride flag. In the foreground is a handwritten sign. The image is only partial but the full sign reads: Even my cats would protest but they can't hold up a sign. No Kings"

A wee native bee tiptoeing on a lupine flower last spring in Montana. Excellent pollen pants. 🐙🌿 #Bugsky
A macro photo of a bee, seen from a front 3/4 angle, standing atop a purple flower petal. The bee is dark brown with orange-yellow hairs, and has a full load of orange pollen on its rear legs.

From the vault: my life-size Meganeuropsis model, a giant griffinfly (Meganeuridae) from the Early Permian Wellington Formation of North America. The wingspan is 71cm.

🧵🐙🌿 Happy #Arachtober - here's an amazing arachnid (this one was in Montana) often called a camel spider or wind scorpion. It's not a spider or a scorpion - it's in its own order, Solifugae. They don't produce venom or silk. They are super interesting. Want a closer look? Sure you do. First, all--
A macro photo of an arachnid called a camel spider or wind scorpion, seen from the side on orange desert sand. It has four pairs of long legs and a fifth pair of long, leg-like appendages at the front called pedipalps.

that was the first split that i made and continue to make, then separated 'log' style sheets for financial info, sowing/transplanting/harvests, etc, then core information about the plants themselves, then related data like insect presence that links to bug sheets, you get the idea i hope

I see protest discourse is hitting the feed again ahead of No Kings—idk man, go, don’t go,

…but if you do go make sure to link up with an org that’ll help you get into longterm organizing and if you don’t go, make sure to link up with an org that’ll help you get into longterm organizing

Sarah shows you a picture of her camera showing you the jumping spider she just took a photo of, with black legs and black eyes and brown pedipalps, standing on some reddish wood
