If you need to see & hear the sea today...& the description is poetry
Scurrying along the edges, scuttling in and out of the waves; faster than a heartbeat but watching them swells and clears the mind. The Sanderling, sand ploughman and energetic dazzler of the shore. Today, Newcastle beach.

Every single day this cycle I’ve thought of Stacey Abrams and said a prayer for her. Thank you, Stacey for laying a foundation very few thought was worth laying.

It's very hard not to be reflective right now. And I'm sure we can all come up with heroes and pivotal events that helped make this possible. I just want to give my personal shoutout to Renee Goode, Alex Pretti, and the entire State of Minnesota.

Earnest tweet to thank everyone who didn’t give up on fighting for the country you want even when it got so bleak.

Should be noted that @marceelias and many talented & ethical lawyers helped protect our elections from relentless and still-ongoing illegal tactics by the current administration. Tonight is very different if those without ethics & honor had prevailed. But they didn’t. Thank you.

Remembering those we've lost this Samhain night As darkness falls on Samhain, an old Irish tradition reminds us to light a candle or lantern in the window for those who have gone before us 💚 May the light of your candle shine for someone you miss tonight🕯️ #Halloween #Ireland

A Blue Jay with Fall colors. I have been trying to get a photo of a Blue Jay against the Fall foliage for a month, but they have been constantly on the move while gathering and hiding acorns.

this is what the internet is for
You haven’t lived until you’ve seen a baby with no teeth, no job, and no idea who Barbara Ann is absolutely losing their mind to “Ba ba ba, ba Barbara Ann!” by The Beach Boys! 😂🎶

Churchill could have shortened WW2 by years if he had just “done a deal” with Hitler. George Washington could have done a deal to end the American Revolution. Zelenskyy is in good company.

Your assignment for the rest of the year is to water you. Pour your time, love, and attention back into the parts of yourself you’ve been neglecting. You’ve spent enough time keeping everything else alive. It’s your turn to bloom.

Quando estiver desanimado, veja esta foto. O sujeito acabou de sair de uma cirurgia para retirada de câncer. Estou cansado, muito cansado. Mas o modo como o @Pontifex enfrenta a vida dá novo ânimo. Vamos em frente. Estamos apenas no começo.
