Generation Jones. Cis/het emerita. Her.
I dissent. I boost.
I wish people would stop saying “let that sink in.”
I post photos that I take with my own phone camera, usually recently. I will say if otherwise.
Profile pic is 30 years old.
Let that sink in.

Last Notes npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine Wow. A real piece of work, in so many ways. Classic non-apology, to boot. npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine "Sister Raffaella Petrini, President of the Governorate of Vatican City State, insists that "the future of work does not lie in machines, but the moral decisions of humanity," and suggests that while we are not to fear artificial intelligence, we must not simply accept it." npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine RE: https://mastodon.social/@houstonpublicmedia/116534714728635824 npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine #MendocinoCoast #Bloomscrolling npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine So it's confirmed to be the strain of hantavirus that can be transmitted between humans. npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine I took a quick snap of what I thought was a jumping spider on a plantain leaf, but now on closer inspection of the image, I don't know what it is. One thing eating another thing? A thing emerging from its larval casing? A spider with a very wide head? #invertebrates #spiders #insects npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine "Way out west, where the bad men are, and the only thing to guide you is the evening star, there's the roughest, toughest, gal by far, that's Ragtime Cowgirl Joy." 🎶🎵 #plushtodon npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine #SilentSunday #MendocinoCoast npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine Lucky to spot this, today. npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine Great story! npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine On my one trip to Hawaii in the '90s, we stayed at a motel in Hilo, and there was an afternoon DUMP of rain that remains my lifetime point of reference for what heavy rainfall means. I just stood, truly awestruck, looking at it through an open lanai door in the reception area. npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine #SilentSunday npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine As a bonus, Zillow is pulling all the environmental hazard info. Good luck, everyone! npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine A true love that was meant to be? npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine #FensterFreitag #MendocinoCoast npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine #BloomScrolling Begonias on display at the #MendocinoCoast Botanical Gardens. npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine Almost missed this year's giant red hot pokers at the #MendocinoCoast Botanical Gardens. They are nearly played out. #BloomScrolling npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine https://www.vaticannews.va/en/pope/news/2025-10/pope-leo-krajewski-papal-charity-antibiotics-gaza-children-ukrai.html npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine #KelpFest on the #MendocinoCoast has been great. Indigenous food and craft at Xa Kako Dile farm was inspiring. npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine The fascists are moving quickly to shut down every possible channel of truthful information and potential organizing for the opposition. College radio, PBS, CBS, NPR, even the BBC World Service is going down. npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine Listen, they admit it’s a fixer. At that price, you could just as well tear it down. npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine Ah, thanks. npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine This just in: The mother of every autistic child drank water each day while pregnant! This needs more study. The correlation is clear. npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine Red. #BloomScrolling npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine There were so many privileges given exclusively to men that it was illegal for women to wear “men’s” clothes. Seriously. Against the law. npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine I don’t think they let women wear such pants in the nineteenth century, sadly.

The myth of the exclusively meritorious white male had to be busted for the betterment of the nation. #DEI npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine Love the shot with the reed stilts. npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine #BloomScrolling npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine #SilentSunday npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine Rubella was the one we were told was dangerous to pregnancies. npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine The courage of Zelenskyy to go into the room filled with people wanting to threaten, humiliate, intimidate and belittle him, and to then face down these mere agents of destruction, standing tall and dignified, is a day for the history books. 🇺🇦 npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine Everything Trump touches turns to shit. npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine Let’s keep up with who we might patronize, and who we should not. npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine You know, we’re all still here. The huge upwelling of joy and sanity, engaged and encouraged by the Harris campaign, the matter-of-fact speeches by Walz. We are still present in our millions, that 48%+ of us at the ballot box. npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine Go order some more Penzey’s spices, and be sure to check the special offers button. npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine Filtered sunlight beam npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine One of the best actions I took in the aftermath of the election was to join the local branch of the League of Women Voters. I couldn’t tell from their website whether they were even active in any way, but I mailed a check to the address indicated. I have since been eagerly cultivated to supply my additional contact information, and receive an intelligent newsletter of local issues and hearings, events and analysis. While officially nonpartisan, they clearly work for democracy and human rights. npub1jf2y0sv22a8lrzjvkdycnw6aw0e4fryjacre9hv6cytuwym3q2hqs9rwtg U.S. Elaine Oh FFS!
