Petition link in bio & SHARE to demand @cagovernor Newsom ensures we rebuild LA SAFE!

And honestly ensure all new building and incentives ONLY go to getting these dangerous, unhealthy appliances out of our homes.

Life has been tough lately. I try not to dwell on that on here, but instead channel it into my work…my art. So I’m working on something new…in metaphors and through-lines…in a way that helps me work less to preserve my mind and loves.

An end isn’t loss if we learn something from it. #sunset #loveu

Why buy greens when they can be foraged for FREE?! πŸ’š

Foraging walks coming up on:
πŸ₯— 3/8, 2pm
πŸ₯— 3/14, 11am
πŸ₯— 3/29, 11am

Foraging invasive plants is an act of ecological restoration, connection to nature, and food equity. And it’s just FUN.

And when it comes to the human species, we don’t have to wait for the weather, we can foster a profoundly positive change from within.

I didn’t make this up, mother nature shows us.

It may feel so cold for so long that it’s impossible to imagine a thaw. But eventually, days get brighter and the heart gets warmer.

It may dry and burn to the point of whither. But eventually, rain nourishes renewal.

When Mother Nature shows us everything changes, believe her.

Rivers meander.
Animals migrate.
Trees bend.
Granite cliffs are carved.

When she shows us everyone changes, believe her.

Opinions shift.
Emotions evolve.
Perspectives alter.
Relationships mature.

All our SoCal Rivers feel ya girl πŸ’–

Waterways don’t want to be locked up… EW!
Eventually they will throw that concrete off… GET OFF OF ME!
All we had to do was build further away from them and it wouldn’t matter… AS IF!

The River has many lessons to teach, but a big one is the power of collective action. Your caring, curiosity, action, and organizing are worth it, because when we add it all up with everyone else, we can change the world!

The value of β€œcelebrity advocacy”: it’s not like people believe something just because a musician or actor says so, but it *does* inspire people to learn more.

So thanks conservatives! Love you mean it! πŸ’–πŸ˜…

The useless border wall divides people AND wildlife. πŸ’” A border we just made up, with no consideration for the cultural ecosystems that exist continuously throughout both sides.

Other crazy things done in national parks things:

➑ cut car sized holes through giant sequoias
➑ make Native Americans wear native costumes for performative events
➑ FEED BEARS in an public amphitheater
➑ walk right up to scalding hot geysers
➑ blow up natural/sacred cliff faces

What did I miss?
