Me too, random fred meyer bathroom patron, meeeee tooooo.

Sign up today! Compost pickup service, similar to a recycling or trash pickup. Your apartment complex, home or business could help keep thousands of pounds of food waste put of the landfill and put it back in our local food system! #foodsovereignty #sustainability #alaskagrown #localfood #compost

Come see me today at the Earth Day fair at Joy Community Center. 12-4pm

Due to our consistent use of the fireplace this winter, as well as having a very small, very well insulated home, we only used about 150gal of fuel this last year. Goes to show that hard work will save you money (but not time, lol) Dog pic for tax.

Fairbanks folx, get involved in direct action for the earth, climate, and local food systems! See you at the makers market Saturday, April 19. #sustainability #localfood #community #recycling #alaska

Here’s how to stay in the fight: 📱 Use the 5 Calls app or Resist Bot to contact your elected officials daily. 🎤 Demand town halls. Show up at their public appearances. 🚫 Boycott evil corporations. 🗣️ Talk to your friends, family, coworkers, and neighbors. 🌳 Build community power. #FiftyFiftyOne

I've always considered myself a beginner, but I realized that I've been growing my own food in various forms for more than ten years now. I think I have a few things figured out. Give yourself time. Gardening is a YEARS skill, not a WEEKS skill. #foodsovereignty #sustainability #community

You don't need a fancy seed tray to start seeds. I bought a set of new trays a few years ago, but as they start to break, i need to rethink my plan. Recycled containers do just as well, keep trash out of the landfill, and if you use paper, it reduces the amount of microplastics in your soil.

One hour left to get these folx to 1 mil for trans healthcare: www.youtube.com/live/NUF6Atv...

🚨🚨 House floor looking pretty gross and fascisty this coming week. VOTES scheduled for: -- HR 22, the Save Act -- HR 1526, the No Rogue Rulings Act -- SJ Res 18, the F*ck You Consumer Act (that's what we are calling it, at least) Scripts for everything @ 5calls.org. Have at it!

Seeing a YouTube Shorts ad as an Instagram reel is wild.

Oops. Hubby got a little trigger-happy with the chainsaw. More things to fix up around here, but hey....we'll have plenty of firewood next year.

*making notes* buy raspberry, tomato, and aspargus plants for the garden....got it.

Sen. Dan Sullivan has been invited to a town hall in Fairbanks Monday at 6 p.m. #alaska

Collaborators with the fascists.

We have each other. We are the Resistance now. All of us.

They are not as impressed with my seed order as I am.

Happy gotcha day to my first ever dog. Arrow. He's an old man now but he's seen me through thick and thin for the past 11 years. His little (big!) sister, Tipsy, is going to be 7 in September. How time does fly. 😭

Folks outside the US: "Why aren't yall protesting?" Americans: Up next: 1. tomorrow March 14: Veterans March in DC and all Capitols Noon. NowMarch.org. 2. Sat March 15 March Against Tyranny @50501movement.bsky.social 3. Mark your calendar now: April 5 National Day of Protest @indivisible.org

JUST A REMINDER ... ... of how close we are today ...

Dropkick Murphys just had an epic moment at their show: They made a friendly wager with a fan in a MAGA shirt—“Let’s see where it’s made.” Then they checked his MAGA shirt tag… Made in Nicaragua. They swapped it with a Made in America Dropkick Murphys tee. Legendary.

Dicks Sporting Goods is one of the good guys! 🏆

When you don't have any clean coffee mugs, you go fancy with a coffee whisky glass.

House Republicans just voted to rob 72 million Americans of their Medicaid coverage to give tax cuts to the rich. 😤 Give your House Reps a CALL BACK to let them know how you feel about their vote. 👉 5calls.org/issue/budget...

Its meltdown dog poop scooping time. Ellen is shoveling and Adam is....surfing?

New episode out now!!

He said: maybe we should get chickens again. I said sure thats A. The most expensive eggs you'll ever buy and B. Everyone in town is gonna be thinking the same thing and supplies will be sold out. BUT....*goes into long nerdy tangent about mangel beets and their historical use as animal feed*

Just as a note, all my seed this season has been purchased from Denali Seed Company, which is a local experiemtnal farm that sells cold hardy varieties that I need in Alaska. Highly recommend for cold climate gardeners. Burpee varieties ain't shit up here.

*Mariah Carey's "its tiiiiiiiiiiiimeeee!" But instead of Christmas its garden seed purchasing season.

A lot of my posts end up sounding like or directly being the sort of thing you'd hear in relationship counseling. That's no mistake. It's because revolutionary movements are dependent as much on relationships as they are material infrastructure. Maybe more so.

A work day at the library is a good day. #Public #library #community

Spending my day listening to free audiobooks on the Libbey app after I moved my whole book list there from Audible. #Nospend #economicblackout

Just saying.

Current and former federal workers: We’re here in D.C. sending out our signal 🚨 Contact us confidentially on Signal at 917-512-0201 or go to propublica.org/tips.

I put my money where my mouth is today and canceled my subscription to Amazon Audible. Gather a list of tasks to resist the fascists and do one per week, it might even save you some money on subscriptions and free up your time as well.

WE KEEP GOING! 🩵🌈🩷🫶✌️☮️💪✨ 50 Protests 50 States One day at a time #5051movement #50501
