It's a Small World

I think this may be Cladonia fimbriata or the trumpet cup lichen. But, as there are 233 Cladonia species of pixie cup lichens there is a possibility I may be wrong.

Really tired of hearing "cost of living crisis". It's a low wages crisis. It's a high profits crisis. It's a decade of austerity crisis. It's a climate crisis.

"Simplicity doesn't mean meagreness but rather a certain kind of richness, the fullness that appears when we stop stuffing the world with things... Let us feel the textures and see the colours, and then we won't need so many things in the place to make it nurturing.."

~ Thomas Moore

Fresh new growth of a Leucodendron in the garden. Despite direct sunshine backlighting the leaves, I lucked into getting something that looked quite soft and gentle.

More fractally ferns. This is the #PNW native maidenhair fern, uncurling in springtime.

A bright green fern frond against a blue background (my coat, flopped on the ground for color contrast… shhh). The frond has several leaflets that are uncurling, forming identical patterns in a hypnotic way.

I promise you, this is not a weird little rubber desert island toy for smurfs, complete with coconut trees.

It's a liverwort which I just found growing between some paving stones behind our house. It must be...2cm (3/4") high?

Close up of five tiny tree-like structures that rise up from a plate of liverwort on a  gritty paver surface. The liverwort looks like a collection of miniature green comic-book UFOs

Billionaires should not set climate policy.
Billionaires should not set water policy.
Billionaires should not be setting any policy.
Billionaires should not be platformed to give opinion on crises & injustices they helped create & have financial stakes in monopolizing policies on.
Billionaires should not exist.
