My dorky little self-reward for running a record-breaking plant sale fundraiser for our community garden is to just get a huge delivery order of bolani, kabuli palao and koobideh and pig out knowing I’ll have leftovers to keep pigging out on for days because I am an exhausted happy little piggy.

I took my 2 year old son to an MLB game today for some quality dad time and he absolutely had a blast. In fact, he was sad when the game ended because he wanted to stay at the ballpark. It was a good reminder that there’s still a lot of joy in life.

Verbatim from the list of grievances in the Declaration of Independence is this part which I feel is relevant to today. I’d like to make it somehow into a sign for the protest tomorrow but I need help creating a clear poster message incorporating it.

Verbatim excerpt from the list of grievances against King George III in the Declaration of Independence— “For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:
For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:
For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury:
For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences:”

My guard finches are back! Every spring a pair of house finches build a nest in the rain gutter near my front door and raise their chicks. They fly out and surprise anyone who approaches my door, so they’ve been dubbed my “guard finches.” This morning they arrived for duty!

Hi, I'm the guy who used to oversee the federal government's agency IT telecommunications contracts. This is extremely bad. There is absolutely no need for this. Not only is it a huge security exposure, but the simplest explanation for this is that it is meant to be a security exposure.

Piles of my garden grown collards, mustard, chard, pak Choi, beet, celery and turnip greens turned into silky southern style greens. So good. I add a chopped fennel bulb instead of just onion and garlic, and a big ol dollop of Calabrian pepper paste instead of dried cayenne for kick.

If it's not fully setting in how ominous this is, try reading it this way:

In the style of a Star Wars opening crawl: "More than six weeks into the second Trump administration, there is a chill spreading over political debate in Washington and beyond.
People on both sides of the aisle who would normally be part of the public dialogue about the big issues of the day say they are intimidated by the prospect of online attacks from Mr. Trump and Elon Musk, concerned about harm to their companies and frightened for the safety of their families. Politicians fear banishment by a party remade in Mr. Trump's image and the prospect of primary opponents financed by Mr. Musk, the president's all-powerful partner and the world's richest man."

Out of all the Oscar-nominated movies I haven’t seen, Nickel Boys intrigues me the most. The theory of the cinematography, shooting from instead of to, is so visceral in the clips I’ve seen. Gonna watch it in a theater in Nevada City tomorrow.

40lb of rabbit poop arrived. Harvested 2 bok choy and a bunch of broccoli for dinner. Week’s worth of collards and turnips tomorrow. Added 24 peppers to the hydroponic starts for the community garden plant sale. Feeding myself and giving to the food bank so neighbors can have fresh vegetables too.

Roasted a huge pile of homegrown broccoli, carrots, radishes and turnips. Think I have enough harvestable veggies to eat dinner from my garden every night for the next couple weeks. That’s how I avoid grocery price inflation. 😁

One other thing in that Slusser piece I found interesting: Manfred commenting on the enthusiasm of the locals in Sacramento. I might be misremembering, but I don't believe he's been as effusive about the locals in Vegas? Gonna be LOL to watch MLB play those two towns off each other lol

Aeroponic starts for 85 peppers and 50 tomatoes for the community garden plant sale. Racing against the dirt starts we planted 2 weeks ago in the greenhouse and I bet these homebrews are gonna catch up fast when they sprout. Aerogarden seed decks on vivosun warming mats in my grow tent.

The 2027 season was already in jeopardy. With this news, you can assume they'll still be talking about plans to re-start baseball sometime in 2030, with no actual games played.

There are ways to stop it. But they require either mass mobilization and protest by the majority of Americans, or intervention by the Military, if the military are credibly seen by the people to be enforcing the constitution when others will not. We aren’t gonna see either of those responses soon.

Some of us might desperately plead for the disempowered opposition to “do something.” What exactly can they do that you can’t do? This is how the Russian Duma became a rubber stamp for Putin. There is almost nothing they can control that doesn’t depend on enforcement by the executive branch.
