Weeds are a healthy part of the environment and soil restoration.

Malicious misinformation is toxic and prevents anything healthy from growing.

Right, but this isn’t weeds in my garden, this is someone intentionally dumping toxic waste that’s killing me and anything I try to grow, including any weeds that might have tried popping up.

I’m more struggling with the intentional and ill-willed type.

That misinformation is too hard to fight.

functional ovaries

I don’t want a pill. I want a full organ integrated into my body that releases hormones responsive to my body’s natural rhythms and diet and environment.

I don’t care if it’s via cybernetic augmentation or a stem-cell grown uterus combo package.

What a wild ride. I did a lot of cool shit, and my best to do good for the world. Overall I’m proud.

There are still some niggling details I’m trying to figure out. Reverse? Or just revisiting? Regardless I feel it irresponsible to move forward if I leave the loose ends dangling.

Ontario has already ripped up a $100-million deal with Elon Musk’s SpaceX to bring Starlink’s high-speed internet to rural and northern communities and remote First Nations.

Article claims it’s already happened!

Hunted and had their horns removed by greedy humans.

Right.

The 16oz can says 130 calories.

So we’d expect the 23 oz can to have 190 calories.

But it says 150… so is it watered down?

So, the bigger can is watered down? Or is the point that the calorie labels aren’t trustworthy?

What’s this about a grocery order? Powerade??

No, it’s not a jar; it’s a door, open or closed.

Yoga and canning beans are both great hobbies. You pick weird things to use as examples of the worst way getting sucked into QAnon could go.

Trump’s white house chose to broadcast that conversation. That was a conscious choice.

EDIT: Yeah, I got rid of it. I had some poor and unclear word choice. I was just trying to say that Zelenskyy’s face is very communicative. He’s a skilled actor who can emote with his face and body language to communicate his position to the audience, at times without even having to get a word in edgewise. His time on TV as a comedian gave him a lot of practice. Communication is a great skill for a leader; subtle communication is a great skill during war. He clarified Ukraine’s position, and got Trump to clarify America’s change of course. He could have handled America’s heel turn in many different ways. He chose not to rise to the aggression and barbs being flung. He just clarified his country’s position and got Trump to focus on how much he wants the “raw earth”. Zelenskyy did a great job with what little he could say to guide the short exchange to expose America’s position behind Putin, and that we are only interested in Ukraine to plunder its mineral wealth.

While the pizza rolls are in the oven, put peas, butter, and cheese into a saucepan and slowly heat them and mix them together. Maybe some gravy or broth if you have some to use up, or another source of salt. When the pizza rolls come out, add them and stir to coat them in flavour before serving.

₣rozen peas are tasty just on their own. Just pour out a handful to munch on as a snack.

I tend to just do peas and gravy on all sorts of things, since I don’t have much butter or cheese and I have a lot of spare gravy base from bean making. Peas and gravy on french fries, on pasta, on whatever you want. It’s the easiest topping to make and it goes on mostly anything.

Word to the media: don’t bother us with this shit until they have a working idea on how to monitor and regulate the shit so we can all have flying cars and not just one dude’s stupid prototype. The hard thing isn’t making a car that can fly. That shit is relatively easy. The hard part is figuring out how air traffic would work if everyone was up there. It’s already a PITA and there aren’t a helluva lot of planes compared to cars.

If they’re all automated and coordinating, NASA has put a lot of effort into researching how to coordinate a swarm of airborne agents with diverse goals.. I’d imagine that these prototypes have gotten further development and a reality-collision as drone systems have been deployed and evolving in the Ukrainian theatre. The tech for this might actually finally be ready.

Although considering the current balance of power, something promising this might actually end up being:

All the unions involved in the Cloudsdale general strike were outlawed and new state-sanctioned ones were set up.

There is precedent for this: a contract for the sale of real estate in the state of NY requires a lawyer with a license to make sure that the deal is fair after some unfortunate abuses of the past.

Why can’t a contract for the sale of labor require a representative? And an organizing body? That’s elected from a given worker pool? Paid via taxes (dues)?

Kinda my point, right?

Make the government represent the people in bargaining contracts.

Local governments.

They then manage the labor market to make it easy for people to get jobs.

Make labor representatives funded by taxes an elected position to bargain for you against an employer.

Like a public defender.

In a court, if necessary.

Where our constitutional rights apply.

To bring this more in-line with OP’s question:

What if we had a general union that represented all workers generally and could provide support for things like general strikes?

Maybe make it a parent body made up of unionized/federated unions specific to each trade/discipline.

Something like the IWW or the AFL-CIO, but that represents all people by default. I’d argue that such a body could/should replace most of what the government does, and then membership is just citizenship. This could guarantee several worker’s rights within the union and enshrine democratic principles/practices.
