Thank you for the clarification! Even better on both accounts.

No forests or mountains for running, rather lovely industrial waterfront. Today stumbled upon a disused gasworks, and beside it, sprouting up from darkest Granton like a dandelion through concrete, a hippietastic clutch of tiny houses, some with gardens. #edinburgh #scotland #lonelygoatrunningclub

I loved this one.

If the boot fits book cover. A black cowboy in a black suit wearing a black cowboy hat standing near a ranch fence line. there are horses in the background.

Watching agencies jump to interpret "end DEI policies" as "scrub all evidence of female and POC contributors to the field" makes me wonder how quickly y'all would throw me (or anyone) under the bus, and how far you'd throw me, to appease what you *thought* an authority figure *might* want. 🤔

A man jumping, under the words "Make Time For Joy"

Reminder: They're trying to demoralize you, and they're doing a great job of it. Part of resisting is making time for joy despite the attempts to make you feel this is not the time for it. Love your people. Dig the art that speaks to you. Go to the places where life flows into you. You deserve joy.
