Trees may have a ‘heartbeat’ that is so slow we never noticed it. What trees do in the shadows. Trees may seem sedate but it turns out they are more active than we thought. Many trees move their branches up and down during the night. The findings hint that the trees are actively pumping water upwards in stages, and that trees have a slow version of a “pulse”. “We’ve discovered that most trees have regular periodic changes in shape, synchronised across the whole plant and shorter than a day-night cycle, which imply periodic changes in water pressure,” says András Zlinszky  NewScientist   20.April 2018

This "squid-like plant" was just discovered in Japan. It lives underground, eats fungi, and belongs to a group of plants called fairy lanterns. Plants don't usually find their way on to my page, but I want to remember this one, named "Tanuki's Candle Holder."

Today in photos. Re-reading and annotating American Gods continues, walking my dog (and so so happy that there was a cool breeze), running errands and watching how the sky changes, three magazines I brought that I’m so excited to read as it’s been way too long, and after so many days of waiting for it to cool down I finally got my bath.

This headline and story is merely confirmation scientists, medical professionals and larger society is beginning to accept and acknowledge it. Or shifting towards acceptance and acknowledgement. The sharp and growing wave of covid long haulers world wide likely may be a major contributing factor.

It has been stated by some ME sufferers that CFS (chronic fatigue syndrome) has damaging history and has been used to invalidate and medically gaslight. The acronym used by members in the community varies, it is important to mention and recognize this that said.
"Like many other neurological diseases, up to 80% of cases of ME/CFS are initiated by infection. Several preliminary studies are now showing that nearly half of people with Long COVID have ME/CFS." - ME Action Network
