Contentment feels like that.

Oh, sleepy summer day. I don't really feel like being busy and efficient, powering through like a machine to keep the profits up for those corporations who tap into my energy and time.
Nature's lazing about in the heat, resting, keeping cool in the heat.
I think I'll let her by my "Influencer" today.

This 64-year-old grandma with no criminal record who has been in the #USA most of her life and has always complied with #immigration rules sure is scary with all that gardening she does. Thank the gods that #ICE is out there collecting people like her!
Also, profile much?

In central Alaska, a small village is undergoing a clean energy transformation in order to boost savings, build resilience and provide jobs. People there want to cut their reliance on expensive, imported diesel that’s one of the largest contributors of planet-warming emissions. @AssociatedPress talked to residents about their efforts. Here’s what they said:

They had seen the bay many times during the day, while sailing through its waters, and it was beautiful.
And then they decided to sail at night, under a full moon, and the experience was magical.

When you're on any global social sharing platforms - it's really beneficial to not assume that everyone you're engaging with is a US citizen.
It is important to remember that you're on global sharing arenas & to resist doing more USA #exceptionalism / #USACentric crap. Most of us on these globally accessible social sharing platforms do not live in the USA. The USA is only a tiny part of a large global audience. Just because they're often the loudest online - doesn’t mean they're more important than every other sovereign nation on the planet. It is that #USA #arrogance that most of the global population is sick & tired of.

Around where we live, summers tend to be hot and dry; come August there may be a ripping thunderstorm that brings much desired water, but for the most part, the rains wait until autumn.
And how we wait for, and love, those autumn rains!

Spring and autumn are unpredictable and capricious -- you never know if the day will be warm or cold, calm or blowsy.
But summer . . . you wake up and know that the day will be warm, then warmer, then hot, because that's what summer is: sleepy and quiet, the landscape resting under the season's heat. As we can, too.

Know your ICE agent:
Being able to discern between a federally authorized ICE agent and a criminal kidnapper within seconds of first interaction is absolutely essential.
If your abductor is an ICE agent, you must obey, comply and submit. If your abductor is a criminal kidnapper, you are free to fight for your life.

stole your meme and changed it because USA has always had concentration camps due to the fact #slavery is enshrined in the #USA #constitution under the guise of #prisons.
without prisons, the USA oligarchy, and their parasitic economy, would crumble. yes, even the war machine would come down crashing without the prison plantation system, prisoner slave labor, the cops framing people to fill up prisons, and their quota ennabling paramilitarization.
this is why #vonderLeyen makes the big bucks
it take superhuman composure to just sit there, letting her soul leave her body and join the astral plane, to escape the eldritch horror of abject stupidity before her, and not say "will you just shut the fuck up please?" like 99% of humanity would
seriously what the fuck is this orange turd babbling about
it's 2025 and this bloviating dotard leads a powerful nation
not powerful for long i guess
It's funny how the smoothest, straightest, easy-to-navigate roads often run through some of the most boring landscapes.
And some of the roughest, most circuitous and rugged ones take us through incredibly beautiful places. Maybe it's because we're moving so much slower that we take time to appreciate our surroundings.

Nature has her moments of fury and storm. But she also has times, many times, of serenity and calm, times when we can look and marvel at her majesty.
And experience peace.

I used to think (in my naivety) that a judge on the Supreme Court was the smartest in the Judiciary — cream of the crop, top of the line…
But damn I can see that’s not true because this is some A-class manipulation and gaslighting by Trump Administration lawyers—
And it makes sense that the people directing #Trump during his first term would put judges in #SCOTUS who would roll over for him.
