Iβll be popping these things into all the deadfall within a mile of me. π€£π€£π€£
Let the re-wilded foods flourish!
So excited and hopeful!
If anyone wants to try their hand at it, look at Paul Stametβs website for types of wood that work. We have spare plugs in maitake that are thriving. Unsure about the shiitake plugs - they might have gotten warm.
1 month, 15 logs, about 1,000 holes drilled and filled, and 3 varieties of spore plugs later, weβre done!
In 6 months, if all goes well, weβll have shiitakes. In 12 weβll have a little lionβs mane. And in 2 years, testing every bit of patience and I can handle, weβll have maitakes.
Finished our mushroom log plug project yesterday! It took us a month because of my interpretation of Ephβs statement, βletβs start small, like 3 logs.β
βStartβ¦.. Smallβ¦..?????β *bork*
Unilever just fired the CEO of Ben & Jerryβs due to his political activism. Boycotting all their products until further notice. Hereβs your cheat sheet.
I invite you to join me and stand with women everywhere to celebrate the day in strength, resilience, and joy.
Whether it is the creation of ideas, children, safety, family, or any number of other wonders⦠womxn are the heart.
I would rather include you than exclude you in the celebration of what it means to be a woman. Because thatβs what *any* of my many mothers would do. Women bring solidarity and community.
I would rather stand beside you than against you, and keep pushing forward for our rights - and the rights of all the underserved and oppressed who need them.
Happy International Womenβs Day. To ALL the womxn, mothers, nurturers, and girls. To the den mothers, trans women (aka women), and the matriarchs. To our supporters. Happy Womenβs Day.
Sooooo yummy
Keep doing all you can. #resist

Immigrants CREATE JOBS. They do not STEAL THEM. They start businesses, they hire people, and 66% of every dollar spent with them will stay in your community.
HERE IN CANADA, 32% of businesses are owned by immigrants. We have 800,000 self-employed immigrants, & 250,000 of them have employees.

Tributes from this time include a documentary by Saint TomΓ‘s University students and a mural at the USACH School of Journalism by artists from 12 Brillos.
Over the next few years, he became ubiquitous at events that brought together groups from the Central University of Chile, University of Santiago de Chile, & Metropolitan University of Technology.
Widely regarded as a champion of the working class, Matapacos first showed up in 2010, just as students began organizing for free education. The young radicals knew him as a faithful comrade who endured tear gas and water cannons, and who only ever attacked or barked at pacos (slang for cops).
Have you heard about Riot Dogs? Strays will often join in on protests and riots, defending the protesters. One famous example of this is the revered Negro Matapacos, a Chilean riot dog.
Im adding a photo of Negro Matapacos to my altar for this winter/spring, to help me channel my fear into courage.
A full 30 days. Finally back to 75% energy, and coughing to get the last of the deep lung crap out. Fucking hell. I feel amazing at 75% compared to HOW BAD I felt for so long. Get your shots folks, this one was rough.
Brushing up on and learning new information and skills. Root cellars today. Iβve heard about ethylene gas and food, but my knowledge went about as far as its existence. If youβve ever been curious, see pics. Source in comments.
This is your reminder to get vaccinated. Been sick with Covid for over 12 days now and itβs WRECKING me. This new strain is a beast.
@whalseygrowsup.bsky.social Ah! Yay!!
For a photo op & a bragging media post, Trump minions at the USACoE have thrown away millions of gals of #water farmers were relying on for later this year. This water will not be captured, will not be useful for cities or farms or firefighting. It is now lost.
