Happy #caturday. Nothing like the smell of rain during a very dry summer. Cosmo approves.

Both plants were labeled Blanket Flower. It is a native plant to my area. I bought one from a local, native only nursery and one from a big box store. Can you guess which is which?

I say it often but once again: By granting them borrowing privileges and protecting their privacy, public libraries afford children a form of civic standing and respect that has few parallels in our “free” society, which mostly treats children as chattel. Vociferously defend public libraries. 📚

Chalk #art on the street in Salida, #Colorado. The theme was "Down by the river". I love the vibe in this sweet little town surrounded by mountains and the Arkansas river.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...
Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology
She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.
