⚠️ ICYMI: The Trump administration is illegally accelerating commercial logging in Illinois’ only national forest. This rushed approach threatens wildlife, undermines climate protections, and sets a dangerous precedent for public lands nationwide 🪵

First read-through of the five books out of The Stormlight Archive took me from November 2024 to the end of June this year - about 6 months. I started rereading the series on June 29th. Today, September 6th, I'm 300 pages into the fourth book already! I'm attributing the uptick in speed to

A creepy sound came from deep in the forest. It was most likely made by a human. The wolf hid the children and decided to continue watching the situation. #Illustration #LineArt #CommentPls

Spotted this lovely Scarce Silver-lines on the path in the rain last night...rescued it and popped it on a plant on the windowsill. What a stunning wee beast. NFY #teammoth #mothsmatter #leps #springwatch #insects #wildlife
