@geekyonion @ScottSoCal @peterb If I can be a plant nerd for a moment, I've always found the avocado toast thing to be hilariously strange. Avocados literally grow on trees in California, and anyone who wants to grow them in their backyard can plant one and in a few years have more than they can possibly eat. (We were getting over 2000 avocados a year from a tree at a place we rented a couple of years ago.)

Numbers DON't LIE!

@ScottSoCal I have Fireweed, a purple tall cover that bees love. But I need to put some between my apple trees to bring them close.

Have the banks considered eating less avocado toast?

Trans rights are under threat. This is “a road test for authoritarianism” in the US, says Imara Jones, as the GOP is working to “demonize and stigmatize an entire group of people in order to build the type of society that religious zealots want.” #velshi http://ow.ly/gX7n50NgeBx

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen Says Feds Won’t Bail Out Silicon Valley Bank

🤨🤨🤨 👏👏👏

(QAnon thinks this is evidence proving their conspiracy about the entire banking system’s imminent collapse, so that’s annoying, but whatever

Park nearby I don’t get to often. It’s #silentsunday, #springflowers

8 years of missing you, Dad. This photo makes me laugh because it’s so decidedly un-Pratchetty. We’re looking in the same direction & there’s hugging (ish.) It’s the kind of pic that, in a movie, one or other of us would look at wistfully before tooling up to go rescue the other one #GNUTerryPratchett #speakhisname
