Gestapo are cowards
π²οΈ Atomic gesture.
Mayor Bass: This morning, it was frightening in Los Angeles to see tanks essentially rolling into MacArthur Park.
It was an egregious show of force. I have no idea what their purpose was. I donβt even think they detained anyone.
Los Angeles was peaceful before June 5. We need to go back to that.
π²οΈBeyond a doubt it is summed up.

Digital concept of a scarred xanthic yellow saltwater crocodile in swimming pose facing left. Author's note: "At 25 feet long and over 2,000 pounds, The Undertaker is one of the largest animals in Naraka Rainforest. Stories have circulated for centuries about the rivers swallowing people and animals whole and canoes being destroyed within a few seconds of hitting the water. Some say he got so big from feasting on dead bodies place in the water as part of funeral ceremonies. Others say that heβs some sort of demonic force in the form of a reptile. Either way, the one thing that is certain is that the waters of Naraka Rainforest are never safe."

Painterly digital illustration of two herbivorous Simosuchus foraging for water plants on a hot day despite not being adapted for an aquatic lifestyle. One is in the water looking shocked at a young titanosaur sipping water nearby. The other is happily chomping horsetails in the background.

Commissioned by Benjamin Miculka (pronounced mostly how it's spelled except the C is CH sound) showing the Tyrannotherium imperator dinosaur hybrid facing left. Genetic makeup includes Tyrannosaurus, Nothronychus, Chimpanzee, Wolverine, Pangolin, and American Lion.
Tyrannotherium imperator dinosaur hybrid concept submission for Goji Center's Great Hybrid War. Didn't make it into the top 16 or mentions, but I still think it's a strong contender! #DinosaurHybrid #HybridDinosaur

I'm guilty. Will try to do better. This was taken several years ago, in a quiet, magical place I love.
view of mispero leaves in my garden
My neighbor gave me this small tree several years ago. She calls it a mispero, which I think is also called a loquat. The fruit is delicious, similar to an apricot, and blooms in late fall.
