I’m small and secretive, but also have a red mohawk and I’m not afraid to use it. Parks worker, restoration ecologist, occasional bartender, opinions my own.

California grows 90% of American strawberries. To do it, they fumigate the soil with chloropicrin before every single planting. Not occasionally. Every planting cycle, every year, in 99% of California strawberry fields. Chloropicrin is a soil sterilant. You inject it into the

Your Ring (and other) cameras are not community safety. They're state surveillance YOU pay for. Take them down. If you want cams, use SD cards or NVR (network video recorder). Camouflage your cams very well (cover lights, etc.). And FFS, GET AUDIO SURVEILLANCE OUT OF YOUR HOMES.

I am going through this. Aftercare isn’t the hospital’s responsibility. If there isn’t someone to step forward to care for them, they die.
What do hospitals do when they can't rely on the availability of grownup children (usually tired, time-poor women, I'm sorry) to manage a parent's aftercare following a procedure? I put this question to the nurse looking after my mother today, making it clear that I wasn't being

Have you ever met a badger
Left the door open at my old house. A field mouse snuck in and became trapped in the sink. He was very well behaved so I gave him a few pieces of ramen and carried him back out to the woods. Came back later and he was sitting on my doorstep waiting for me. I swear, every

The Pentagon has failed their yearly audit EIGHT times in a row. They are unable to explain where a TRILLION dollars goes. Not a single departmenent in the Department of Defense has ever passed an audit. You are being robbed - but its not by people on food stamps.

You know what’s fucked? Corporate landlord agencies require not only the unit you rent has a Ring camera, they require the renter to pay for the subscription. #ringcamera

The ring camera search party feature ads has my tinfoil hat on so hard. They just want everyone to turn over their ring camera feed to the police under the guise of "looking for lost puppies" and everyone is going to opt in.

I keep telling y’all this. DO NOT USE THIS SHIT. It is a thousand times more dangerous than any idiot you might think you will catch stealing your dumb amazon packages.
Ring is now publically turning Ring users into a coordinated network that can be accessed by individuals at will… Whoa whoa whoa.

I would like to think the best of us declined to have children at all, largely due to the weird ass shit we were exposed to as children.
The generation that brags about being latchkey kids who had it good growing up because they could go out and do whatever they want are the same ones forcing their kids onto 24/7 monitoring apps and making sure they're tucked into bed by 9pm on Fridays until they're 25 years old

There’s one detail that bugs me about #Guthrie. I don’t usually hear news, but as I’m caretaking my dad, he keeps news on. They keep saying Tr*mp called Savannah. Tr*mp doesn’t call people. Especially not news anchors from a network like NBC. Why did he call her?
