This aster is a shade-loving, mat-forming species that prefers wet soils, from swampy to somewhat wet. It can be a good native replacement for a lawn as it doesn&#39;t grow very tall. It produces beautiful yellow ray composite flowers in early spring. <br/>#nativeplants<br/>#bloomscrolling<br/>#botany<br/>#easternnorthamerica<br/> <img src="https://hessen.social/system/media_attachments/files/114/353/746/572/193/879/original/c77bb660c30bebde.jpg"> <br/> <img src="https://hessen.social/system/media_attachments/files/114/353/746/802/453/841/original/119589d933120b4e.jpg"> <br/> 2025-04-17T14:29:41Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsth7uxl8dypt6mdhq7cepp7vemu6e00728sv4x8qplatzlxujxlfgzyr9utcp4xvkuma8svvsxx4ays70cfmgkucynnqu08rask6eehczkqfwxjhf In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsv2ynx4exaax03jmumx67xrl2wey5n5prapf56jdcemllvum57rxgyv55jt'>nevent1q…55jt</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Bezos, Musk, Zuckerberg, Pichai, Nadella, etc etc aren&#39;t all kissing the ring of Trump, as many have said. They paved the way to his re-election, they created the conditions for his reincarnation. They see less regulation, more profit, and signal more oppression **by their hands** with their support of him. They will pave over us in the process. They do not care about us.<br/> <img src="https://hessen.social/system/media_attachments/files/114/025/907/244/918/497/original/e7ba9860888c095b.png"> <br/> 2025-02-18T16:48:19Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsv2ynx4exaax03jmumx67xrl2wey5n5prapf56jdcemllvum57rxgzyr9utcp4xvkuma8svvsxx4ays70cfmgkucynnqu08rask6eehczkqzhzpcn In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsgklnjajvu9scnvlh2yjy34w90w0cukywg0zm7j6padymfyhrafxc6gm2ke'>nevent1q…m2ke</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Poverty rose 18% in 2023, and then another 11.5% in 2024 in the US. <br/><br/>2020<br/>BIDEN: 81,283,501 <br/>TRUMP: 74,223,975<br/><br/>2024<br/>TRUMP 77,302,580 <br/>HARRIS: 75,017,613<br/><br/>3,187,283 fewer people voted than in 2020.

Then add systemic and structural racism and classism, where it takes 60 minutes to take the bus 5 miles to the grocery store. Where there are fewer voting places, longer lines, working two jobs, you start to see the weight of giving in and focusing on immediate needs. <br/><br/>The fact is that way fewer people voted in 2024 than in 2020. Simple facts show that people are disenfranchised by the system. We are getting steamrolled by the oligarchy. 2025-02-18T16:40:36Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqszh96kpsdpzrp3ytwjztd4m6fg0yy4eckhlrehv7p5h7glc98lvlszyr9utcp4xvkuma8svvsxx4ays70cfmgkucynnqu08rask6eehczkq5t499g In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs0kmcvfe8d0mtp9f6ch0tyx3e4lcaw3a0grxejs650ef802j0fhvc99nh6g'>nevent1q…nh6g</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Our enemy is the corporate and billionaire class keeping us in survival mode. If we are fighting to get by with every next moment, we have no time for anything else. And when we have precious free time, it tends to be filled with immediate gratification. That&#39;s a natural response to being placed in an untenable situation. Quality of life has a correlative relationship with functioning democratic systems. Rising tide raises all boats.<br/><br/>Fuck the racists, fuck the fascists, don&#39;t center on them. 2025-02-18T16:36:24Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs0kmcvfe8d0mtp9f6ch0tyx3e4lcaw3a0grxejs650ef802j0fhvczyr9utcp4xvkuma8svvsxx4ays70cfmgkucynnqu08rask6eehczkqwewsun I see folks only blaming the Leopard-Ate-My-Face crowd for Trump. This is only part of the story. The larger bit is the systemic mountain of voting disenfranchisement, access, and poverty in the US. People with the most to gain often have two or three jobs to juggle, kids to ferry, and a host of other problems to drown in day-to-day. We must center on those folks if we have any chance in defeating fascism. Better than raging about idiot fascists who thought Trump would help them. <br/><br/>#uspol 2025-02-18T16:30:25Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsqkvlg5lr2npl9n48rt6stc2lr2hrd7wnktcthv8cmuxvtr46k4tczyr9utcp4xvkuma8svvsxx4ays70cfmgkucynnqu08rask6eehczkq23ze9j The amount of websites that are blocking VPN traffic is starting to get ridiculous.

It is the Streisand Effect defined. CEOs can stop the wave of celebration by taking their boot off of our throats, but they won&#39;t until we force them to. Power to the people.
