Green seedlings in rolled up seed snails.
Plants in the seed snails coming along nicely. This is the second year I’ve tried this method and I appreciate that it takes less space and less soil to grow seedlings. 🌱
Kristi Noem: "When it gets to Election Day, we've been proactive to make sure we have the right people voting, electing the right leaders to lead this country."
People keep talking about how the government will collapse if we pursue the files.
In MN, the community is keeping people fed and safe.
Nationwide, ppl are donating to GoFundMe to cover medical expenses for fellow humans.
There’s a whole lot of “government” that’s not really working rn.

Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him.
“When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."
I appreciate those out there protesting at great risk to their lives however i think the nation needs to grind this economy to a dead stop.
It's something everyone can do safely. No spending on ANYTHING but absolute necessities.
I understand some shut ins can not do this but very many of us can.
If you’re able, here are a list of ways offer financial support to folks under siege in Mpls right now: linktr.ee/mplsmutualaid
You don’t know your role yet maybe, but we are all finding out just what we have to offer.

Keep speaking out!

Cardboard box full of tangerines.
What a crop this year. Many boxes will go to the food pantry this week.
Our congressional representatives keep coming on social media to tell us how worried we should be.
My dudes, we know. Now go do something about it. 🙄
These are not exhaustive lists, and they’re not specific to ::waves hands:: all this. But they’re a good starting point. Do what you can within your budget.
There are SO many people asking about prepping for whatever may come. I’ve been talking about this for years, because we never know when there will be a weather event or a layoff and I was raised as a “plan for a train wreck” person. Now we’re adding ICE storms and fascism to the list.
ICE goons just kidnapped a teenage boy in Minneapolis 1/122/6
Keep doing the good work!
These 10 companies stand to rake in $1 billion by 2027 by helping ICE track down and round up immigrants.
Cashing in on cruelty.
If you can make that happen here, hero status.

All of these bootlegged copies of the 60 Minutes segment flooding my feed (saying, ‘Watch it quick! Before it disappears!’) makes me feel like I’m in the Soviet Union and just got some black market foreign newspaper I need to hide under a floorboard in my house.
This is where America is now
Yesterday: There was a middle aged man in the bookstore reading Go Dog Go out loud to his lady friend because she had never read it before.
You know what would make a great gift? That’s free? A library card! It’s like giving a lifetime of joy.
Oh! I’m rarely here, and just saw this shoutout. Thank you!
For others: All of the canning information in my book was reviewed for safety by the National Center for Home Food Preservation.
