Hi, Looking for a like minded community of people. We live about 45 min. S of STL, MO. We are in the middle of a very red area where people vote for hate, racism and misogyny. Would enjoy finding people who are informed & have an interest in making positive changes in the environment & community

Give me the huddling masses Not a government loaded with asses We strive for all folks to be free While they buy all their votes for a fee We're all the same, black, white or brown It's orange that makes you a clown Let's all pledge to help the most needy I'm so fucking sick of the greedy #vote

Vote to kick the bastards out Vote to give more women clout Vote because they're all corrupt Vote before your heart erupts Kick them to their sullied curb OMG, that'd be superb We'll celebrate their big downfall And after that we'll jail them all #vote #midterms #nokings #bluewave #voteblue

To cast out the grim orange villain Those ballot boxes need fillin' Our votes, like our hearts, on the left We won't stand for more years bereft The only safe antidote Is for everybody to vote So cast your vote on the double And save our great Country from rubble #vote #nokings #bluewave #eagle

In MO a teacher can only write off $350 for classroom expenses. I would routinely spend twice that much or more for my science classroom.

#spiders I covered my plants last night with the threat of frost. When uncovering them this morning I looked in the rain gauge to find quite a large wolf spider taking refuge.

#plants Thought the structure and symmetry of this seed pod was interesting. Unfortunately it is an invasive plant called velvet leaf. It had small yellow blossoms.
