It's been Monarch Mania around here lately! The most activity I have ever seen in the yard. Of course they're flocking to the meadow blazing stars (Liatris ligulistylis). #butterfly #butterflies #Lepidoptera #nativeplants #Illinois #nature #macro #photography #SaveTheMonarch

I asked Illinois DOC for their banned books list and they REFUSED. Originally I got a copy 9 mths ago - & now I wanted an update to check for changes

But they said it was "unduly burdensome" of me to ask again.

Being a prison official must be WILD. Like, CAN YOU IMAGINE just saying fuck you no I'm not doing my job because I did it once, 9 months ago?
