by

Meme-Podcast-Square

Description:

And flossing? Seaweed works fine, but we prefer jelly strands — extra slippery, biodegradable, and if you’re lucky, bioluminescent. Nothing says “fresh breath” like a glow-in-the-dark smile.

by

Meme-Podcast-Square

Description:

I’ll be honest, my brave little barnacles: I’m angry. I’m sad. And I’m confused. Because from where I swim, it looks like weapons are valued more than children. And that thought makes my saltwater boil.

So today, we remember the women who marched, protested, and risked it all to crack open those voting booths. And we also honor the ones who had to keep fighting long after 1920, because justice doesn’t always arrive on time.

Description:

Painting over a rainbow doesn’t erase the people who live it, love it, and shine it every single day. That’s like trying to paint over the tide. The water’s just going to wash back in.

by

Description:

Here in the water, we know the Gulf’s true name because it’s written in the currents, sung in whale-song, and traced in the migrations of sharks. Try to rename a living body of water? That’s like trying to rename the moon and expecting the tides to care.
