Happy to pass along that Robby was released from custody a few hours later. I'm guessing that a lawsuit will be considered.

Very straightforwardly detained by secret police for speech. I honestly don't know what establishment figures are telling themselves any more to avoid cognitive dissonance over this shit.

ICE arrested comedian Robby Roadsteamer for singing a parody of Rod Stewart’s “Do Ya Think I’m Sexy” in a Jeffrey Epstein the Giraffe costume outside their facility.

He sings “If you hate brown people / and you are a Nazi” and ICE thugs grab him and drag him into detention. No violence—just speech.

A sweet little Carolina Wren + my Sassafras painting. What’s not to love?

P.S.: I think the wren is snacking on a cocoon or chrysalis…maybe…

Don’t know why the beautyberry photo glitched out.

MaceyLou @wildapproach.bsky.social · 9d

Recently:

1) American Beautyberry being a beauty
2) A new book I finished and I loved it! It’s a cozy spooky mystery involving a gardening plot!
3) Caterpillar lurking near the threshold
4) a mantis. I think it’s the Carolina one.🤞🏼 I hope so. It’s on Ptelea trifoliata in the back garden

Thank you to everyone that showed up to the Smart Yards Festival on Saturday! I’m so glad I got to meet some of you in person. It was a great success and a fun day. We also got lucky and only got a few sprinkles and a few cracks of thunder. Nothing major! Then the weather cleared up.🥰

In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked — what would we call it?

If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers — what would we say?

Authoritarianism — let’s not pretend it’s something else when it happens in our American cities.

Here’s the link to the shirts: www.bonfire.com/night-watch-...

Thanks to everyone who has already bought any past shirt designs. I appreciate you dearly!❤️

Night Watch Owl Shirts | Bonfire

These shirts are inspired by the owl that was spotted in my garden in Summer 2025.. It's spooky season, and owls are perfect for this time of year. They are mysterious...

I designed some owl shirts. They are inspired by the owl that showed up near my garden recently. It’s spooky season, I love owls, and I want to create merch inspired by these things. So I did. If you don’t know, I have a YouTube channel where I talk about wildlife gardening. Merch helps support it.
