#Magnolias

It’s my favourite time of the year! 🌸☀️
I’ve been loving seeing blossoming trees on my walks/runs in the last couple of weeks!

#Magnolias are some of my favourite spring flowers because seeing them always takes me back to the Magnolia Garden of the O.V. Fomin Botanical Garden in Kyiv, where I really enjoyed going for walks with my grandparents *and* the magnoliid clade is evolutionary ancient, so, it’s cool to think about dinosaurs walking among the ancestors of these trees!

#magnolias “I imagined more lyrical and literary content, but we're in an overwhelming emergency. I thought perhaps I could keep more of the meditations in here through images (I am a great believer in beauty and pleasure as part of what keeps us going while we face their opposites).”

Meditations in an Emergency · Stand Your Ground. Plant Some Flowers On It TooYou know who's doing great organizing for us right now? Elon Musk and Donald Trump, that's who. By attacking and alienating more and more swathes of the American public, they're handing us the possibility of a coalition bigger and broader than maybe anything we've ever seen in this country before.
