Most rural areas have a ruling class. And they want cheap unfree workers & to pass their fiefdoms on tax-free forever. It ain't rocket science. The fact that we're scared to talk about THAT, ime, is what's costing us a lot of rural voters!

One of my favorite little fun facts is that janitors & sanitation workers have, in a very real sense, saved far more lives than any doctor. Sooooo much of modern health isn't due to the advancement of medicine, but due to sanitation

The dismantling of our public health infrastructure made this outbreak the worst of this century. But worker exploitation is at the root of the problem and not enough people are talking about that

In an American context, cyclosporiasis outbreaks are almost always caused by improper sanitation at farms or food processing facilities. Farmers around the world routinely refuse to provide adequate toilet or handwashing facilities for their workers if they think they can get away with it, to save money. When exploited raspberry or spinach pickers have no choice but to relieve themselves in a hole next to the field of crops, the potential consequences are obvious. A 2013 outbreak in Texas, for instance, was tied to contaminated cilantro.
Contaminated irrigation water is another potential culprit.

Another critter for the bestiary. Instead of being a straight up chimera, this one's based on the elephant-nose shrew and just modified to make the nose longer. Also, they're not usually purple ;)

Quote post with your yellow art! This one's tough for me, I don't use much yellow.

a quilt of tessellated geometric "leaf" shapes in colors that shade from green, through yellow to orange and red. one naturalistic three dimensional leaf is in the bottom left corner and a scattering of other leaves are sprouting butterflies (which are the same fabric as the underlying fabric so they're hard to see in a photo)

This thread is hilarious and reminds me of the several times our furniture delivery guys brought back a truck full of furniture from the wrong house. That they were let into by the homeowner and allowed to remove the furniture. Good times.

amazing that our own small creations connect us directly to the moment of our universe erupting out of nothing and the unfathomable power of existence itself and yet we look at our drawings or stories and are like 'this is bad.' bud it is not bad it is the leading edge of a billion years of beauty

hope to finish quilting this one this weekend so I can get on to the applique!

a quilt being fed through a sewing machine. the quilt is mostly shades of blue and green in a geometric design. there's a white person's right hand holding the quilt in place next to the foot of the sewing machine.
for the discerning sewist - yes, that's a piece of cardboard stuffed into one of the tension hooks to keep the thread from popping out! it's an older model brother machine and I hope to heck they've changed that part

it really is shocking how much self deprecation is seen as a cultural requirement for 'serious art.' 'real' artists are not allowed to exalt their work and must present it publicly as a sort of 'i dont think this is very good but maybe you will get around to it.' HECK THAT. love yourself

Another reject star for this quilt! It's cute, but I think I want something bigger for the last one. I save the rejects and extras and whenever possible sneak them into other quilts. This quilt has several repurposed blocks. I kind of like the way this quilt looks upside down! It's giving me ideas

An unfinished quilt laying upside-down on a green cutting mat. At the top of the image is a yellow and red stylized fire surrounded by green that gradually changes to blue as the quilt continues toward the front of the screen. Yellow "sparks" turn into "stars" moving up the quilt - down the image. In the foreground is a single star unattached to the quilt.

I hope that made sense! It's harder than I expected to describe something that's upside down in a picture.
