Did you know? There’s a directory of Black farmers: “The Black Farmers Index.” Buy and uplift local. Many are small-scale specialists and located in urban areas. I found an organic resource in my area that I will definitely check out.

The Democratic party is currently lead by the most ineffectual bunch of losers I’ve ever seen. James Carville says it’s time to “play dead.” Hakeem Jeffries is on a book tour. Chuck Schumer is so uninspiring it’s a joke. They don’t care about winning, they care about enriching themselves.

Today was the height of False Spring in Seattle. Bright blue skies, blinding sun, 65°, bulbs popping up and everything budding. I was surprised to see these 2 in full bloom already, despite the frigid weather last week! That primrose survived last year. Maybe if that primrose can, I will too.

First, they said postponed; now the meeting is canceled. That means no flu shots next year. “'It’s a six-month production cycle,' Dr. Offit said. 'So one can only assume that we’re not picking flu strains this year.'" Fundamentally, that's a form of mass murder. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/26/u...

Yet another study finds that diverse forests store far more carbon than monoculture plantations. Previous research in the tropics showed it could be 40x more. Natural forests also help stabilise the climate in other, equally vital ways. WHEN will this penny drop? scienceblog.com/tree-diversi...

The first measles death in the US in a decade -- the tragic, preventable death of a child whose parents chose not to protect them with vaccination -- should spark an immediate nation-wide campaign to ensure all children are protected against preventable diseases. Anything less is unconscionable.

There are already disabled people who die while waiting for social security to be approved. Punishingly long delays, frequent rejections & little interim support exists. A 50% reduction in staff will kill many more. Stand up for disabled people. We are often the first targets, never the last

I have to say it is a special kind of hell to have watched all of this anti-trans rhetoric and legislation build up for the last 5 years in states and to report on it today. It feels like a nonstop hose of the worst things imaginable. There are dozens of stories I still haven’t gotten to.
