National Freshwater Science Agenda - Canada.ca

Canada just released a National Freshwater Science Agenda — 10-year priorities, 800+ contributors, including Indigenous experts & knowledge holders. A good first step. Now we just need the political will to fund it. 🧪🐟🦤

this very act of treason places all of america, all us bases across the world, and all service members at risk. It removes any of our allies to want to come to our aid…

the fact our congress is NOT moving to immediate impeachment of the entire administrator makes them co-conspirators

#DailyHaikuPrompt: “Gusts/Dragonfly"

Dragonfly surfs the
wind gusts like waves of water
made of smoke and dust.

You are so right. And you used the word “mercurial” so I’m doubly impressed 😏

Close up of a short, knobby stick (possibly the worlds coolest stick. Who am I kidding. It is DEFINITELY the world’s coolest stick.) it kind of looks like a long skeleton finger, held in my fingers in front of me against a grassy background

#dailyHaikuPrompt Bloom/wings
moon blooms full in a
field of indigo dotted
with stars like eyes of

all the animals
who wake at night; and all dark
things with wings take flight

This is a macro nature photo I took of blueberries blooming. A green stem angles in from the upper-right corner and places the blossoms at the mid-left side. There's a cluster of five pink buds in the center and three white bell-shaped blooms surrounding them. In the blue-green background, the bokeh holds another cluster of bright pink buds to the upper-left.

Winter heals many wounds. Some of us think of hibernation as a hindrance, a stifling of progress, or a forced rest. But what happens when we take the time our bodies need to recover? We heal. For those of us with chronic illness, which is not an injury but a state we navigate daily, healing becomes a circle, not a line with a beginning and an end. We all carry these bruises, whether visible or internal, and it's important to acknowledge that we're each doing our best. I wish you all deep healing and comfort. This thought inspired my latest senryu:

crush of black
and blueberries
the bruises we heal

Blog post zero: a users guide Please note: this blog contains explicit language...probably a lot of it.

re-releasing my first post with audio.
I even got myself a new pop filter so you don’t have to listen to my pops and plosives…

her laugh plows through my
white picket defenses-breathless
making me reckless.

Stan Prokopenko and the Kangaroo-fetus Monster  Sharing your failed attempts isn’t cringe, it’s generous.

Yet another post!

About mutant sheep and kangaroo monsters, “bad” art and staying at least kinda sane-ish while trying to do “the artist thing"
oh, and as always: 100% guaranteed too unhinged to be written by AI.

#dailyHaikuPrompt Orchid Catkin

Orchid blooming pink
unfurling, purple, yearning
for touch a soft as...

catkin fluff, tickling-
on a soft breeze she’s trembling
all syrup and sweet.

#dailyHaikuPrompt New Moon/Willow Leaves

Darkness stole the moon
to let her be reborn: new
Now, in this moonless

night, willow weeps green
tears, elongated leaves like
spears cascading down.

Thanks!
I’ve been considering selling some art on there. Maybe even some art courses. We’ll see.
and I hear you: I know for me a few kind words and support here and there really help me keep going.
and the artists and the activists HAVE to keep going right now! it’s so important…but it’s hard.

because it feels good to donate to cool things.
and I need things that feel good right now, don’t you?
exactly.

#DailyHaikuPrompt “Morning/evening”

Morning wakes wearing
a gossamer gown of golds
blushing pinks and pale-

Blue jeans she wears by
evening. Soon she’ll slip into
indigo sequins.
