The enterprise formerly known as Twitter is now understood by all to be in the service of right-wing authoritarianism in the United States and around the globe.
There is an uprising against Tesla, which is just a car company. Where is the uprising against X? How can any nonmalicious nonprofit or state or city organization continue to use it for its messaging? Or anyone else.
Rise up!
Good morning, friends. 🌹🌹🌹
17 March 2025
Every morning over the past few days, as I open the blinds in my office and look out the window, the grass has seemed a little greener. Spring is just three days away. Deciduous trees are beginning to sprout new leaves, and faint traces of yellow pollen are starting to emerge. Today, the sky is crystal clear—a definite sign that spring is near. At the edges of the forest, a few tiny pink, white, and yellow wildflowers have begun to bloom, though they’re still too sparse to dominate the view. Yesterday, I spotted cowbirds. They’ve been gone all winter, but now they’re back, ready to help fill the spring nests of other birds. Winter is finally coming to an end, and its return feels distant, safely tucked away in the cycle of seasons.
"Daffodils,
That come before the swallow dares, and take
The winds of March with beauty." -
William Shakespeare

Squirrel on the Roof
This morning, I stepped out the backdoor and spotted a little eastern gray squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis) sunning itself on the roof of my backyard shed. It must have leapt there from a nearby tree, perhaps drawn by the warmth of the roof. The chilly morning air made it the perfect spot to soak up some heat.

Scarlet and Blossom
Spring is almost here—just four days away! This image, taken last spring, showcases a northern cardinal (Cardinalis cardinalis) and a crepe myrtle flower, both vying to bring a splash of brightness to the day.
