The NWS HeatRisk increases next week, especially late in the week. This is the outlook for Thursday, June 11th. Notice nearly all of Ohio is in the red "major" category, which means heat will be problematic to anyone if proper precautions are not taken. 🥵🌡 #OHwx
State funding to Ohio’s most popular schools (Public Schools) is now worse than when Ohio’s Public School Funding was originally deemed unconstitutional (1997)
Translation: EVERYTHING has gotten worse under 3 decades of a Republican Supermajority here in Ohio’s State Government

We are in a deep unprecedented ecological crisis and it starts with how we interact with the insects. Pesticides kill beneficial insects. Insects pollinate our crops and trees. Humanity will collapse without an abundance of insects.
The US spent millions every year tracking and releasing sterile screwworm flies to keep the population controlled and prevent it spreading north of Central America, then Donald Trump and Elon Musk paid those people to resign under the DOGE efforts.
They did this.
Most butterfly gardens are built to feed butterflies. The good ones are designed to make more butterflies.
A yard full of nectar flowers is a snack bar for the adults, and that's a fine thing to offer. But flowers alone make a rest stop, not a home. A few other pieces turn it into the real thing.
The big one is host plants. Caterpillars don't drink nectar, and most won't eat just any leaf. Monarch caterpillars need milkweed; black swallowtails want dill, parsley, or fennel. Without the specific plant a species lays its eggs on, your garden raises no butterflies of its own.
Then the small stuff. A flat rock or two in full sun gives them somewhere to bask, since a butterfly can't fly until the sun has warmed its wings. A shallow dish of wet sand lets them "puddle," pulling up the salts and minerals nectar doesn't provide. A wind-sheltered corner, with a few stems and leaves left standing through winter, gives them places to rest and overwinter.
And no spray, not even the organic kind, since most of it kills caterpillars just as readily as the pests.
This is how your butterfly garden stops being a place they pass through and starts being a place they come from.
This is exactly why billionaires can’t exist. This man is burning the entire world down because he cannot accept his daughter for who she is. And he has the money to actually do it. No one can have that power.
