I had considered something big and bold and statement-y but I went for frames clear across the face, black back to the ears.

OMG I am so glad you posted this. There’s a hive in the base of a tree in the front and we get bees that kinda crawl around on the front walkway, some bees that just die there. This explains it all.

That is so kind of you to say.

What I did is lay down some cardboard and leftover bits of soil from here n there, some mulch, some seeds, some straw, and watered it.

The sun moving north in late-winter-to-early-spring, rains, Mother Earth & millennia of plant evolution did most of it.

Thanks for adding the bloomscroll hashtag. Both are in use, tho I’ve favored the -ing version. Glad to see what’s on the floral non-gerund #

Thank you! This patch of soil teeming with colorful life has induced the best procrastination ever!!

I’ve used 2 hashtags for 🌼🌸💐🌻. #CaliforniaWildflowers (more recent images) #CaliforniaWildflower (no S) the older ones, since mid-November when I sowed it.

5 months later it’s glorious!!!

Blessings, beauty, love and sorrow as you remember and honor the person who has gone on.

(I see your remembrance and I remember too. I’ve a map marker in maps app where we held burial at sea for my parents. I have similar photos of flowers on the water’s surface.)

I had checked another Spoutan timeline — media spouts only, because photographer— and after reading this very warming reply of yours, I checked out my own media timeline and the wildflower patch figures prominently in images I’ve been spouting!

Go to 270toWin and make your own predictions. Those are Bouzy’s predictions but the map and graphics come from this excellent web site
(Preview is “consensus”)

Inspired. There are squirrels here and I have not looked for nor seen babies (but one I was looking at recently seemed smaller than usual, so maybe a squirrel-teen?)

On iPhone I take a Live Photo

Then bring it into an app called LP, convert to gif. There are a few settings there for file size limits/frame rate.

If I need to refine further by downsizing or cropping I use QuickGifEditor

Can also use Giphy in a pinch but it doesn’t give you choices Re size, &c

I hear that.
I created/curated several twitter lists that I often refer to.
"Bobby Three Sticks" (a mueller refnc) on Legal proceedings got a lotta scroll this week. "The bird" a collection of voices that available only there.
Lists help it suck less. Too much scrolling this week tho overall.

yes, seeing how fast the sun or the moon moves at the horizon is something, because when that orb is all alone in the sky, its movement is imperceptible

Since 2017, I have been attending nonviolence workshops led by Rev. James M. Lawson (organizer of Nashville sit-ins, colleague of Dr. King, speaker at Rep. John Lewis's funeral, more). He calls sexism the first oppression.

I did settings so long ago I forgot that I had. But yes, it turns out I filter news by category.
Huh.
Maybe, as experiment, I should enable only 1 category for a day and see what the stream looks like. In 8 days I'll have more of a clue. Also: I only occasionally check news feed so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yes. I have the MountWilson webcams as favorites on devices so I can just go and look at what it's like up there. Today's a day of clear, blustery clouds, gray clouded over.

Do you have an example spout where that is in effect?

It’s not working for me as I’d expect and I don’t know WHAT to expect.
