like check this out. i have on my normal winter clothes, i have on a pair of cotton poly blend leggings, knee high compression wool blend socks pulled up over the leggings, a cotton blend undershirt, and a wool blend tunic. if i go outside i'll put on a pure wool sweater over it, i own maybe 20

Yeah if blight isn’t a problem, adapting this machine to be primarily business/developer slush fund and sprinkling on some equity seems inferior to doing inclusive planning and budgeting!

anyway great movie. don't remember who on here recommended it but that's easily one of my faves, rocket to the top. going to show it to my dad immediately and that is a high compliment

i am not a "horse girl" because i do not like to ride horses even tho i am actually okay at it having grown up around them. i don't care for a prancing little princess bitch horse. i like a fuckoff tank of a horse that can haul a refrigerator up a hill. that's a horse i can respect

this is the proper sort of a movie

mr. tumnus should open carry

Here’s Barbara Danes version from a Folkways album youtu.be/TLc9hc5NKaI

Just turned down a job interview because they brag about their military contracts and their founding supplying the military during the Vietnam War

@billhookunion.beanyear.com 's amazing bean stickers Which you can obtain from beanyear.com/shop/ along with some excellent bean boxes

One of the most dangerous publicly accessible and even encouraged to explore places I’ve ever been

"there are no third spaces anymore" wrong. blast furnace

For anyone interested, this is Sloss Furnaces, an old industrial pig iron blast furnace that's been preserved for public use. Really incredible and beautiful place.

Bean year is here.

Kellogg was the original MAHA.

part of this complete breakfast! (image shows wheaties alongside a totally separate and nutritionally complete breakfast that would be great with or without the wheaties)

Box 6 - the final box of 2025, I’ve got around 6-8 of them left I can fill.

The crowder peas from @billhookunion.beanyear.com were a bit of a revelation—they were earthy, but I didn’t taste the savor of sweaty sock that I find so unpleasant in black-eyed peas. I think I’ll have to try to get my hands on some lady peas, too, for comparison.

sometimes i'm like oh i just live down such and such street and if they don't immediately go THE WITCH HOUSE?? i know they're about to reveal they live in the alberta arts district and did not almost die several times on the way over

our library down the street is of course in kind of a poor neighborhood so most of the other people are normal but it's also one of the nicest newest libraries in the system so every time we come there's at least one person dressed extremely hip just taking pictures of their kid for insta lol

Beautiful packaging But yes most Ranunculus, and in fact the whole Ranunculaceae family, is poisonous, with as always caveats.

Agreed - and it’s is a shame bc Lindgren was an anti-Nazi and generally politically sound. Which shows in Pippi’s overall irreverent and populist worldview. She definitely understands ACAB. Case in point:

we have watched disney robin hood perchance 1000 times lately and "you heard his mightiness! move it, creepy! get lost. begone, long one" cracks me up every time. begone, long one

primrose from brambly hedge encouraging everyone to tuck into the meat pies at the midwinter dance because "they're all homemade" has got "meat's back on the menu boys" energy because how would she even know about store-bought ones? she's a mouse in a hedgerow

Compare this suite of policies to (Portland) Mayor Wilson’s fixation on sweeps, his fight to keep resources away from rental assistance, and undermining social housing by firing the housing bureau director after she discovered a bunch of unspent $ and tried to report it to council.

Obsessed with this juxtaposition

I inherited this mint. My grandchildren will inherit this mint. It's the mint's property, they just kindly allow me to pay the mortgage.

drought-adapted stoloniferous perennials ftw, amirite

these seed companies are straight-up demons for including mint and lemon balm in their seed blends that innocent people are obviously going to strew about

Amethyst's recipe did not lead me astray. It came out perfect.

Shout out to @billhookunion.beanyear.com for the phenomenal crowder peas

It actually made me a little teary eyed, and gave me a comfort I didn't know I needed, to know that there's someone else living all the way in Portland, OR, from having grown up in the deep south, that knows what a meat and three plate is. Thank you!

Because I am a procrastinator I just opened my box two days ago and read the last letter. In my adult life living in many different states, I've at times mentioned "meat and three" plates, because my first job was waiting tables at a place that did them. And no one has ever known what I meant.

Also, if @billhookunion.beanyear.com had a nickel for every person using both his beans and Michael Twitty's book for their New Year's Day dinners, he'd have 2 nickels, which isn't a lot but it's still neat.

i need like a listicle of some nice things to put on toast. i discovered that the 99 ranch i can walk to has special perfectly square toasting bread that fits exactly into my toaster and comes out so so perfect. 2026 my toast year

happy new years to maddy prior and maddy prior only

with democrats like these who needs republicans

whoever invented grass turn your location on

a lot of my flowers self-seeded too so i don't really need to do a lot there? my hollyhocks and sweet william and nicotiana and agastache all are just doing their own thing. the herbs are all fine where they are. already planted some new dahlias peonies ranunculas tulips and anemone

no beets or radishes because i don't fucking like them. no parsnips because i USED to like them but after ten years of parsnip-maxing i'm starting to NOT like them. too many parsnips. need a break from parsnips

seeds inventory and order thus far. we are taking kind of a minimalist approach to the garden this year due to getting our asses absolutely handed to us by the weeds due to 2 toddlers last year. it was carnage

There’s still a handful of bean box 6 remaining and I’m shipping the next tranche this weekend if you want in

Excited to get a jump on my New Year’s resolution to try at least one new recipe per month with Bean Box 6 from @billhookunion.beanyear.com and Recipes From the American South by @koshersoul.bsky.social

BREAKING: Explosions felt across New York City as full socialism begins

i will say it's a good thing this show started when it did because now as a parent of young boys myself i don't think i could handle season 1 never having seen it. like in the flashbacks will and his friends look barely older than my sons and i think i would make the choice to not do that to myself

you know who would have been useful against a giant spider? sean astin. Big whiff by the duffer bros

They've been talking about the World Turned Upside Down for years yet we still haven't seen any mention of the Puritan parliament banning Christmas. I don't think they're going to be able to resolve this glaring plot hole in the time remaining.

Aw I didn't check to see if anyone else did it already... but I like how mine turned out just using my photos app, so

pemon lig. let's see. could i insert a fruit into a coin somehow

someone should photoshop this so it's a lemon pig in the circle. not me i have to eat my lunch
