Dear Reader,
The next few months are make-or-break for Mother Jones’ fundraising, and we need more online readers to pitch in than have been of late. In "It's Not a Crisis. This Is the New Normal," we take a level-headed look at the brutal economics of journalism, why investigative reporting like you get from us matters, and why we're optimistic we can grow our base of support in a big way—starting with hitting a huge $300,000 goal in just three weeks. Please learn more and donate if you can right now.

Please learn more in "It's Not a Crisis. This Is the New Normal," where we go into the brutal economics of journalism, and what makes Mother Jones unique and worth supporting if you can right now.
Let’s take a short break from wildflowers this week and ease into the weekend with something from the garden instead. This is a Sally Holmes rose, which sports a lovely combination of delicate yellows and pinky salmons. Our back wall is currently overflowing with them, along with an outbreak of miniature pink roses.
And don’t worry about the wildflowers: I’ve got dozens of pictures of them, and you’ll see them all throughout the rest of the year.
