Goodbye beloved Uncle Hugh - you were a peace warrior for the ages. Quit the ministry to walk a truly brave path in war-torn countries rebuilding what our country destroyed. A true servant of the people, a true Quaker. Grieving your exit my dear one & only uncle, I 🤍 you 🕊️💔☮️

WOW!!! Way to go Europe! Nature bats last folks, it’s best we follow her lead 🌱.
Nature Restoration Law has been adopted by the European Parliament 🎉🎉🎉. We have defeated the attempts to block action on climate change and biodiversity loss. I am bowled over.

Calling this Rhizome Cake, it’s sweet, not savory. A Japanese fluffy cake, made with my own cultured vanilla yogurt instead of cream cheese. Like a firm custard cake. The mushrooms are an accident of my meringue that didn’t work out. But they did. Pleased with it 🍄

Ecomodernism - groovy eco-philosophy that tells mostly urbanized, highly educated, white-collar folks that although the Earth is in danger, their lifestyles are not. Perfect for inserting a do-gooder vibe into political and business circles, and then fundraising.
Saying NO to Ecomodermism. Smaje Versus Monbiot, It’s No Contest! Great review of @csmaje's new book which does more than just take down Monbiot & the broader ecomodernist philosophy but points to the ecological alternative to farm-free synthetic food

#uclaclassof2023 #finearts She graduated with a 4.0 but neglected to mention that to her parents 🤨 and decided she didn’t need the honors sash because it cost $50. She is purely devoted to her art, and we are beaming 💛💙 👩🏻🎓#prazdellavade #firstexhibit
