That's not fog. That's smog and particulates from the Canadian wildfire obscuring the sun above Philadelphia this evening. It's being funneled down here via circulating atmospheric pressure systems. As hazardous to our health as this is, I find the whole process fascinating. It proves that everything goes somewhere.

The reason we have LGBTQ Pride Month is not to celebrate our pride but to insist on our right to exist without persecution.

I stand in solidarity with my trans brothers and sisters and their right to exist without persecution.

This isn't the first time raccoons have knocked over one of the planters on the wall, but it is the first time they made it a family affair..😅
