I find that it's easier to know things that have a bit of supporting evidence backing them up.

I had a two-night, three #hike camping trip to #AnzaBorrego over the weekend, but the weather forecast for tonight included 35mph winds with gusts to 50 along with heavy rain, so camping in a wash and hiking through wind-scoured canyons didn't sound like a good plan, so we cut the trip short.

I have bookshelves. What would I gain by recording what I read online?

If you see this toot (yeah this one right here), can you boost it for me? It will help my new server federate with the wider Mastodon network. 🚀 🙏

Thanks to anyone who can do this. It is really appreciated! This server is small but will be hosting several #peace #SocialJustice and #Humanistic groups, so it is for a good cause.

Fucking vermin are lower than slime molds.

#AnzaBorrego #Hiking

Went out hiking Palo Verde Wash in the desert with friends yesterday. A surprising number of flowers were blooming for this time of year, including so desert milkweed. I didn't see a monarch but did see a queen.

I spent the day in the lowest level of the museum sorting snakes, lizards, and amphibians.

How was your day?

How is it even POSSIBLE that in the US of today, POTUS needs to tweet that the Holocaust happened? I have no words for my outrage that hate is spreading to this extent, in this land, where so many of our ancestors sought refuge from Nazis.
