Excellent morning at @houstonoasis.bsky.social. Dr. Dan Potter from Rice Kinder institute with an insightful talk on health equity in Houston and Ermelinda Cuellar performing amazing songs.

As per usual, with the impending cold front I’ll be playing a game of survival of the best adapted and/or lucky. Just covering some precious plants. As too the rest we will see if they were meant to be here. 🌱

Greetings from the backyard! 🌱

If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game. The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.

Enjoying a great program at @houstonoasis.bsky.social this morning. @kavinsenapathy.bsky.social giving the main talk Progressive parenting. Music from the Cory Wilson Duo and community moment by Mike Nelson. Great to hang with the secular community this morning.

www.bbc.com/news/article... I can’t imagine being an international student in the US now. It was tense enough after 9/11

Axial tilt is the reason for the season! Come join the winter solstice party with Houston’s secular groups. We’ll be collecting donations for the unhoused.

A little bit of serenity with tortoise therapy: Zappy is on the move outside.
