A few sources of free supplies for those who want to grow with less.
- Free seeds - look for a seed library- check with family owned nurseries at end of season, they have to toss expired seed, they still germinate. Save seed from food - tomato, potato, pepper, squash
- Free containers. Know anyone in a landscape installation company? Ask them to save you 5 and 15gallon pots. Make newspaper pots, sew felt bags ( get felt at a craft thrift store . )
- free fertilizer: coffee grounds from neighbors, guinea pig litter or rabbit litter if you know people with pets, bean soaking liquid,
I’ve been off it for over a month and I suddenly got an advertisement for Reddit in my weather app. They are thirsty
Is that a chickakey?
The main tools we need to focus on is education and community. Isolating women and children is the way predators and murderers get away with abuse.
If you have friends or family members, that are becoming distant with a new partner, keep in touch. If parents are isolating and indoctrinating their kids, be there - stay in touch even if you hate the parents politics and let them know there are other options in life.
Share your experiences with bad men even if it’s awful, because the darkness never disappears if you don’t shine a light on it.
Don’t let propaganda or men divide us. A group of angry women is a powerful thing.
Exactly what I would do. Build tiny house communities for low income housing that sustain themselves.
They would have some community features like a tool library and food garden and a dog area, and individual indoor and outdoor spaces for everyone.
A portion of either the rent or sale price would be set aside for each person for financial advice or mental health support annually.
Ideally built by a combination of master craftspeople and trainees from at risk youth.
Ugh I really want to do this but it’s totally outside my skill set
IVG is possible- science is researching how to make sperm and eggs from any cell.
I’m 45 and feeling like I’m aging because I’ve had some health issues that limit my activities. I’ve always hated being in photos and on camera - super introverted.
Recently met someone I was on zoom with no image with. She was a little inappropriate- but basically said, I’m surprised you’re so beautiful you could have turned the camera on.
Made me feel a lot better- and to be honest, I have great skin and my eyes are pretty cool I have sectoral heterochromia so they are two different colors.
There is plenty of evidence that the full chemical formulation in roundup is toxic - which is why they try to focus on the “active ingredient” glyphosate.
Plus it’s already been linked to fatty liver disease.
walnut is overhyped juglone can prevent seed germination but it has little effect on plants over seedling stage. I have a massive shade garden under my Juglans Californica, and there’s plenty of mustard and grass growing under wild ones, so even the seed germination thing isn’t 100%.

Scaring immigrants and reducing both legal and illegal immigration is the stupidest thing any country with a declining birth rate and an increase in elderly population can do.
Who’s going to provide elder care? Who’s going to pay taxes to maintain the country?
The majority of legal and illegal immigrants are often skilled workers with foresight and drive to work to improve their lives. They are often escaping persecution corruption and criminal behavior and looking for peace and prosperity.
They regularly take the worst type of jobs, at low pay rates, even though many of them are highly skilled and educated. These are jobs many citizens do not want, harvesting crops, cleaning, landscaping.
Anyone white who doesn’t realize their ancestors were literally in the same boat and behaved like actual criminals , stealing land from native Americans and killing them with violence and disease, and/or owning slaves, is an idiot.
Many of the people who worry about immigrants are looking for someone to blame for their unhappiness, when the real problem is the rich (or themselves) .
Native people are the only non immigrants in this country.
