Click thru and watch him. It's less than 3 minutes.

Beloved meteorologist on the air for 34 years stops his show to deliver education about Trump's Musk's cuts to science and the National Weather Service. How, this year, for the first time in his career he cannot forecast hurricanes with any confidence.

He's getting the word out. More of this please.

I did a massive trim on the orb as of late. The plants were getting so dense that the crypts and vals weren't getting enough light and started to die out. I fertilized the substrate with some root tabs and am looking forward to some lush undergrowth again.

Just a reminder that Vincent van Gogh did not eat yellow paint to make himself feel happy, he ate paint, and drank different chemicals because he was suicidal and this is why he was not allowed in his studio while having breakdowns. He also did not paint starry night and his other great works because he was depressed, he painted most of them while he was in recovery and demonstrated his hopefulness and love of the world through this. Most of his great works were painted from his room at a hospital. Van Gogh’s depression should not be glorified. His hope and effort toward a better life, as well as his recovery from depression should be glorified.
