Disney crushed desantis like a grape. Good thing. Have never cheered for Disney in my life. Not stoked about starting now. Hope they choke on each other.

First real burst of pollen. We live in the good graces of a very, very rich Earth. Let us not stray from Her grace. Winter nights are quiet, for the most part. The night noise chorus is waxing. I expect bats and swifts, any day now.

It’s not about red or blue politics, it’s all about the green. –Paraphrase of Rupert Murdoch’s assessment of the editorial standards at his company, Fox News.

Bluebirds checking out the nest box. Doves cooing to potential mates. First crickets last night. Like I said, Spring.

Lady Banks rose in bloom. Smattering of pollen. FIRST BOX TURTLE, way early! Hope I don’t speak too soon, but my ever-drip fountain, this minute, has a resident immature bullfrog (Rana catesbiana), or it looks bullfroggy, with huge tympanae and large webbed rear feet. Deer, fox, maybe coyote, coons, possums, dogs, cats, turtles, and snakes drink here…hope they all get along. And, am kinda cranked up about trying to root cuttings from an old ‘sand pear,’ which pears are hard as rocks, but wildlife love them. Spring!

First catbird spotted. Not in my yard, but local yokel. Welcome back! Raisins deployed. Spring!

‘First successful butthole to mouth transplant…’ –Stephen Colbert, or one of his very good writers.

Two weeks ago, groggy over-wintered wasps were falling from their nooks and crannies, finding a sunny spot, and contemplating the rest of their lives. Today, they are seeking a place to lay their Summer’s brood. Watch where you put your hands and face the next month or so… Azaleas are a bit early… All the sweating? That is definitely early.

Carpenter bees and their aerial dogfights. Sweat. Two showers per day. Lizards and toads active. First stinkbug.

ron pindick desantis, you are the perfect example of a 19th Century Bible-thumping slaveowner, brought back to life. You give idiot shits a bad name. You are a fucking corn-studded turd, a kidnapper, human trafficker, and an unpleasantly crazy motherfucker, motherfucker.

Does any of this make you ‘uncomfortable?’ Good. So sue me.

Nikki Haley, it’s not your age that we find disqualifying, it’s your incapacity to call balls and strikes. Keep workin at it, you might get there before YOU are ‘too old.’

Hang with Liz Cheney, if she will have you. Liz could teach you some shit. Seriously.

little fucker carlson! What a beacon of hope for putin and every other Commie motherfucker on the planet!

Who will next sue Fox News? Will little fucker carlson be at the heart of it? Oh, I do so hope!!

Carpenter bees. The skinks are out. Humidity rises. Seeds of annuals are sprouting. Clothing, skimpier. Laundry, less frequent. Spring.

‘I’ve dranken the water…’ Norfolk Southern CEO, re the train wreck and spill in East Palestine, OH. OH, DO TELL. You ignorant fuck. In your case, CEO must mean Check English Over. And over. And over.
