Ocean view Sunset behind a pine tree. Sublime moment of #Zen

Another beautiful day ending with this view, looking over the Pacific Ocean with a pine tree and a Red Tail Hawk seating quietly on a branch.

Fantastic maps. I was looking for one east of Poplar and Stratford, Wanstead Flats / Plaistow? I assume the church names were local Parish Districts?

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

www.theguardian.com/commentisfre.... “Elsewhere among Washington’s cultural institutions, there is a sense that leaders are keeping their heads down in hope of evading the gaze of the destroyers.”

Trump is trying to crush the arts – and he’s starting with the Kennedy Center | Charlotte Higgins

Artists might cancel shows, donors withdraw and audiences flee. It all plays into the hands of his authoritarian project, says the Guardian’s chief culture writer Charlotte Higgins

Gorgeous end to a picture perfect warm day along the California coast.

Thank you for the link. Very interesting. I believe these cliffs N of La Jolla are part of turbidite deposits. Possibly Eocene (~ 50–55 million-year-old). Vertical bioturbation could also possibly be dewatering structures?

Anyone know how these “concretions” made of sandstone are formed? They are not iron concentrates, or precipitated from mineral rich deposits. Found off California cliffs. @geology.bsky.social @geologist.bsky.social @anjanakhatwa.bsky.social

Sunrise Through the Trees
by Amos Russel Wells

“…The ardent vision, on and ever on…To fabled islands and to thoughts of God,
There with what radiance of majesty
The sun approaches, all the heavens lit
With torches of his couriers, all the sea
Laid with resplendent carpets for his feet!”

There is a pertinent saying in one of the Upanishads:
When before the beauty of a sunset or of a mountain you pause and exclaim, 'Ah, you are participating in divinity. Such a moment of participation involves a realization of the wonder and sheer beauty of existence.

Love this. It should not be limited to this term. But it’s a great step forward.

Now @khanna.house.gov and other house members need to make the media tour , including Fox News, to talk about it
