- I made it to 100 days of #reading, by tracking at least 1 page/day on @thestorygraph.com app! 🥳 As a #dyslexic person, some days it's a challenge to read more than one page, but I set my goal low so it's achievable and encourages me to read onward. 📚💙 #storygraph #booknerd

- Reposted by LucidSome great advice on protesting
- Reposted by LucidThe corporate media’s coverage of the protests was horrible. A lot of news orgs ran one or two small pieces, but they barely scratched the surface of what was happening on the ground. So I’m here to bring you some of the inspirational stories from our amazing subscribers who saw it all firsthand.

- Spring Fieldcap, Agrocybe praecox. I adore these edible #mushrooms. They create some incredible designs on their caps as they grow. Always reminding me of a fancy pastry, not dissimilar of pan dulce! 🤤🍄 #fungifriends

- In my city, ALL #ecology work HAS TO abide by a #nestingseason schedule, to restrict activity after April 1st as to NOT disturb birds nesting. This does NOT seem to apply to anyone else, even if they disturb a nest doing line clearance work. WTF?! #ProtectBirds #ProtectNests

- What's the point of having a Migratory #Bird Treaty Act when industry ignores it all the time?! Nests are protected under the #MBTA, yet nests are disturbed in favor of capitalist timelines instead of having an iota of patience to return AFTER #nestingseason. #MOTH #ProtectBirds #SpeakfortheTrees

- Working through this brilliant publication of #poison wisdom, Poison Garden issue 1: Purpose of Poison -> spiritdirt.com Just finished a piece inside called The Mithridatic Method by Parker Thorn - useful to read for #queer folks w/ estranged family! 📚💙 #poisonpath #venificium #pharmakon
- Reading every day, for 83 days now, I am doing well with my personally set 2025 Reading Goal in @thestorygraph.com app. 5 books read with a goal of 15 read by the end of this year. I might surpass it, who knows! As a #dyslexic person who has struggled with finishing books, I am so proud! 💙📚

- Finished this book yesterday, Cascadia Field Guide: #Art | #Ecology | #Poetry edited by Elizabeth Bradfield, CMarie Fuhrman, and Derek Sheffield. (More "Feel Guide" than Field Guide 🫶) I wish everyone living in #Cascadia could have a copy. An incredible #bioregional #animist resource. 💙📚
- Listening to a Tree being limbed and destroyed in my neighborhood. 😭💔🌲 This Tree has been a communal gathering spot for 100s of birds/year. Snags left standing like this provide food, shelter, and great vantage points for spotting prey. Keep urban Trees standing! #SaveSeattleTrees

- Poetry is challenging. Although I wrote poetry in grade school, I haven't read many #poetry books. Partly due to not finding ones that called to me, unlike #QUEER #NATURE here, edited by Michael Walsh. I can lose the meter in many poems, but this anthology is great practice. 56% complete! 📚💙

- Reposted by LucidYall are supporting 100 HRT Harm Reduction Toolkits a day. 🥹 That is *100 years* worth of HRT support for trans people being created *every day*. Hell yes, this rules!! 🏳️⚧️⛑️
- Fuck it. Trans folks need MATERIAL SUPPORT. @distributeaid.org is launching an HRT Harm Reduction Toolkit that provides 1 year of medical supplies needed to take injection-based HRT. We were planning to go live in January, but I'm not waiting. Fund the kits here: distributeaid.org/hrt-harm-red...
- I still wear a mask in most public places. I am currently the only one wearing a mask in a light rail car full of ~45+ people. I care about my communities, and I wear a mask to protect them. It's so startling how quickly the majority of the public just tossed all these protective measures. 😷😷😷
