Witnessed. What you feel is real. Being with you and believing you wherever you are.

I’m just standing with you on this. Similar hyper-sensitivity but not testing for MCAS now. Just figured out my stomach meridian flips & has to be sedated w acupressure to avoid symptoms. Immediate or minutes following eating. Wild.

Holding that good data and people arrive for you!

Well, those photos are a wonderful way to enter into it. It really does help weave you into the moment. Much needed with the state of the world. Will be fun to see where the intrigue takes you! I love my little #dailies

Here’s a little fall messy melody from my newly returned tiny walks. I love this time of bounty and decay all mixed in together in the mundane. Makes my heart happy.

A fading stalk and new growth illuminated by the setting sun.

A jumble of flowers, fuzzy white puff balls and spiky stamen balls above a green thicket of leaves.

Golden hour reveals leaves & sharp shadows against the smooth bark of a crepe myrtle sister tree.

Directional flowering grasses create a pleasing diagonal pattern across the frame

I woke up in the middle of the night with the first two lines of this poem repeating in my head. I couldn't sleep until I wrote it on my phone.

I fell asleep almost immediately after I finished.

During a Quiet Moment

How brightly shines the pale light of hope
Underneath the canopy of loss?
This bone, this mind, this gristle
Mingles and lingers in a sea of fallen pine leaves
(A chorus of once evergreen angels now at rest)

Tossing and turning in the night, these words
Trace the dreaming winds, whispering
Curl your hand behind your ear
Listen as they say:

The impossible is merely another name
for yesterday
A chasm we daily cross

SCOOP: The Bureau of Land Management says the largest solar project in Nevada — the Esmeralda 7 mega-farm — has been canceled

The news was quietly dropped via a sudden website update with no public word from any of the companies involved or a statement from the agency

Esmeralda 7 Solar Project Has Been Canceled, BLM Says

It would have delivered a gargantuan 6.2 gigawatts of power.

A poem that manages to be both powerful and a balm for the soul:

eileen chengyin chow @chowleen.bsky.social · 4d

I, however,
Have such meagre power,

Clutching at a
Moment,

While you control
An hour.

But your hour is
A stone.

My moment is
A flower.

-Langston Hughes, "Poet to Bigot"
#everynightapoem As ever.

I have done so little
For you.
And you have do little
For me.
That we have good reason
Never to agree.

I, however,
Have such meagre power,
Clutching at a
Moment,
While you control
An hour.
But your hour is
A stone.
My moment is
A flower.
-Langston Hughes, "Poet to Bigot"

Sorry, I saw some misinformation gaining traction and speaking as someone who has been on both programs, we've got to be clear.

A lot of people don't know about US SSI and SSDI, the difference between the two, how people qualify for them, how much help they provide or what limitations they come with.

This thread will give a helpful overview on these things. I won't cover all topics because it's a huge mess.
