So tired of this bullshit...
Ya’know what ALL OF THOSE THINGS require? More D's in Congress. Whinging about people working towards that immediate goal is obnoxious and harmful.

These nature/wildlife photos from the 2025 Mangrove Photography Awards are so great, it's tough to choose just four for preview images below 🤯 😍
The first two (mangrove under the Milky Way, hermit crab) were winners, the others were runners up (tigers) and highly commended (crocodile).
All 14 images here are a must see:

Calamus 30 A promise and gift to California
Well they can't all be winners. A tedious poem of Western fantasy. Appropriately aspirational for 1860 but not a particularly interesting nor unique sentiment. Also an unkept promise: Whitman never reached the west coast.

I and robust love belong among you
I do like Whitman's lustiness, in this case his "robust love". We know a thing or two about that in California.
