The same Golden Rain #trees a week later getting ready to seed. #SilentSunday
Great turnout today in a small central Florida town. More horn honking this time, and a few drivers showing us their IQ :)

I hope everyone had a nice weekend, but especially the anonymous nice people who have been leaving buckets of apples from their garden on the street for any passer-by to share.
The Beautyberry bushes are showing off their seeds. If the Robins get here in time, they will have a feast !

No Kings Day is almost here.

The Trump regime believes that if it can overwhelm us with atrocities and threats, we'll surrender our rights without fighting for them.

But the people won’t bow down. We will rise. Join us at a peaceful protest on Saturday: https://www.nokings.org/?SQF_SOURCE=indivisible #NoKings

The Golden Rain #trees are blooming #SilentSunday

The MAGA theory of power is that repression and the costs it imposes will be more consequential than the will to resist.

Through harassment, bullying, and violence, they want to show that resistance is not only futile, but will leave us worse off than acquiescence.

We have to muster the moral strength to overturn this formula. No fear, no sellouts, and no free rides. We must be willing to pay what democracy costs or see it disappear.

#NoKings October 18.

No Kings

As the president escalates his authoritarian power grab, the NO KINGS non-violent movement continues to rise stronger. We are united once again to remind the world: America has No Kings and the power belongs to the people.

p.p.s. The server mastodon.social is NOT a good place to sign up, for many different reasons (more info here: https://fedi.tips/its-a-really-bad-idea-to-join-a-big-server).

If you just want one alternative, https://mas.to is a much better option. It's reliable and has been online since 2019, and doesn't suffer from the problems of mastodon.social.

If you want to choose from a wide selection of servers, there are human curated lists of well-run reliable servers at https://fedi.garden and https://joinmastodon.org/servers
