On #Caturday, I wish you the joys of a pile of kittens. Visit to see the three mamas and their 15 kittens. The kittens will be available for adoption. Watching them co-parent is a beautiful antidote to everything else going on. www.youtube.com/watch?v=XU7q...

Posted outside a building complex designed by Edgar Miller. Possibility over despair and vision over nostalgia are especially important now.

Sign urging people to choose unity over division, optimism over cynicism, opportunity over limits, community over isolation, passion over apathy, possibility over despair, renewal over decline, humility over ego, inclusion over exclusion, leadership over partisanship, responsibility over blame, daring over status quo, respect over vitriol, courage over cowardice, vision over nostalgia, love over fear, compassion over indifference, and upstanders over bystanders.

I love the sentiment, but it also reminds me of when "pray" was a way of saying "please" (now only surviving in "pray tell"), and I have a mental image of a 17th century dowager seeing a gay man leave a party too soon and saying "Pray the gay to stay." Photo by Kristel Hayes on Unsplash

I love how the violas have either faces or butterflies, depending on how you look at them. #photography #flowers

This cat recommends peace, so that everybody can bask in the sun without fear and contemplate tuna. Or whatever else one chooses to contemplate, though tuna is the superior choice. #catsforpeace #caturday

Spotted on a walk earlier. Couldn't help humming "Little Shop of Horrors" after seeing it. I love seeing a sense of humor in decorating.

Spent time with a good friend in a beautiful wooded cemetery with a lovely mausoleum complex. Saw deer quietly doing their deer thing, ogled the Tiffany windows in the mausoleum complex, talked about serious stuff and trivia.

#FungiFriends I love how the bottom one almost looks like bird feathers or moth wings.

Two fungi sticking out of a tree trunk. Both are multiple shades of brown and beige, but the bottom one has patterns that look like a butterfly wing or bird feathers.
