Excruciating nighttime plantar fasciitis prevented this evening by the purchase of new $180 shoes this morning. That’s a lot of ibuprofen.

6 quart cream enameled no name and a 8-9 quart lodge cast iron. Im 5’6” 160lbs and cook for 3-4 adults on the regular. Someday I will spring for a pretty color le creuset or staub pot, but I more often use cheap stainless stockpots for preserving.

I am used to plantar fasciitis attacking me first thing in the morning, but having it so bad I can’t sleep at night is new. Im nsaided up, both systemic and local. What else can I do?

This should be so obvious that it doesn’t need to be said, but given what kind of weekend it’s been on here, apparently it does: If you don’t want old rapists running the world, in office, in the board room, making decisions for all of us get comfortable with “ruining” young rapists’ lives

there is absolutely nothing of value that would be lost by banning every single fraternity and sorority from every single college campus. it would drastically improve society within a single generation in fact.

This country absolutely hates women and depends on our unpaid labor and hates us even more for that dependency. We are loathed, and once you understand that a lot of the pieces fall into place

I actually don't think the Republican Senator mixed up "Hawks" and "Hawkeyes." Going by his own statements, it appears his staff saw he went to a basketball game on that date and googled basketball games and found the only men's game that night in the whole country was in Atlanta.

Murder is also the #1 cause of death of pregnant and postpartum women. Related: Denying people access to abortion care forces them to remain trapped in abusive relationships they often would otherwise leave. (among other harms)

Late summer early fall is just loaded with beauty. 🌱

Gigante beans finally bloomed probably too late for beans.

eliminate EV subsidies, ban cheap overseas EVs, ban EV component import, deport people bringing battery technology to the US, pay billions to kill clean energy projects, end fuel economy standards, and then do THIS is such an elaborate prank on the American people you almost have to respect it

The fact that both Democrats and Republicans are racing to the 10 side of a 90-10 issue really tells you a lot about the state of our democracy (it's a corporatocracy), and how both parties view democracy in general (as a nuisance).

There are already articles circulating trying to rewrite history and say America was great after 9/11 and united and thoughtful and just a reminder that that period was marked by intense and insanely racist hatred, paranoia, and a frothing desire for unhinged violence and oppression.

Ilex vomitorea, or yaupon holly is native to the southern US and contains caffeine. Don’t let the species name fool ya, it’s not coffee, but it’s not bad. I have some tea bags from some place in Texas that sells it. The toasted one tastes the best to me.

All of this is separate from the SOCIAL CONSTRUCTION of race. Given that DNA ancestry services are less than 15 years old, our attitudes are not based on *genetic data*. But that fact again: There are no unshared, population-level genetic variations in humans. I'll leave you with Adam's essay:

Someone ancestrally from Africa will have MORE ancestors contributing (probabilistically) to each DNA base inherited, but beyond ~10,000 years ago (the identical ancestors point), every human was either the ancestor of everyone alive, or left no surviving descendants. You & I (& Elon🙄) are cousins.

The neighborhood hooligans surprised me tonight. I didn’t see them until I was right next to them! 15 ft away! Two in a group of eight.

Couple of deer in the clearing for power lines. The closest is within 15 feet, looking directly at me, and has a rack of antlers.

Two deer ina grass field looking right at me and wondering if im packing heat.
