Bloom through adversity.
Pinned
I hope y'all don't mind, I'm planning to use this app as a place to put my random musing and to periodically scream into the void.
They stopped minting pennies because they need the copper...

Your scarcity is imaginary; we are surrounded by abundance being hoarded by greed.

Highbush blueberry

Nice bright colors, branches looking thick, looks like good bloom set for next year. 4-8 berries this year, think the inside bloom messed up the timing of the berries. Hopefully it will establish outside & have a more natural cycle next year. Will cover soil for the winter.

Pink lemonade blueberry bush

Nice reds on the leaves & next year looks good, branches turning red. No berries this year but looks hearty for next year, my take a few to produce. Will cover soil, coal compost & mulch... Leaving side stone dirt free... Maybe mulch or stones... Still thinking.

It's a tough habit to unlearn, but the less you use IG; the less effective it becomes.

When its feed loses effectiveness, you use it in shorter intervals, so it collects less data.

After a certain threshold the slop it serves becomes less potent & begins to repel you with a relevancy death spiral.

What'd happen if people stopped buying from corporate grocery stores in protest of SNAP funding being withheld?

Crypto currencies are imaginary investments which artificially self-inflate based on trade bots synchronized selling frequency through the daily currency & market exchange cycles.

It's genuinely a global counterfeit currency parasite which steals from the whole world through inflation.

It's greed.

So the companies stake investing in crypto & ai are really debt eating into the inflation death spiral?

I want to know the total energy cost per day to run the full digital infrastructure of the internet.

All the data centers, servers, ai models, social media archives, etc.. down to the towers & routers, computers & handheld devices.

How much of Earth's resources do we burn every day for the matrix?

Are we being held hostage by ai, or is ai an accomplice?

I'm sure a decade of global collective action to replace our pollution for energy infrastructure with ecologically sustainable infrastructure updates would avoid world extinction.

Nectarine Tree is getting really vibrant while changin colors.

I was worried when the leaves started turning yellow, but something about this orange hue with deep red veins is reassuring. Also the buds are looking plump for next year already.

First tree to change this autumn... others still green.

The thing about peace is it can flood your streets & leave nothing but joy.

Our relationship ended whenever you first lied to me to hide your affairs; from that point on you were manipulating me.

This administration has proven beyond a reasonable doubt their criminal intent, in violating constitutional rights of citizens.

There is no longer a good faith argument that they intend to comply with the law or their oaths of office.

Supreme Court Justices must face this reality in their rulings.

The impetus to act is not the sole reason, but rather the last straw.

Encourage those who found the courage to stand up.

For they are standing against those who have normalized cruelty in the name of greed.

Emerald & Scarlet Colonnade Apple Trees

Great start. Brief beautiful flowers early spring, few natural fruit, will hand pollinate. 2 of 4 made it full term, but eaten by critters as soon as they start to turn red. Pick while green early Sept & ripen inside. Bad ants & aphids: hose, h2o2 & Neem.

Methley Plum Trees

Real hearty growth from both. Started to weave longer branches through fence, seems like espalier will be a good route, spring / early summer growth was most flexible, by Aug branches start hardening. Little buds on the big one, maybe flowers / fruit next year?

Mericrest Nectarine Tree

Impressive growth this year. A bit of yellowing on the leaves (maybe not enough sun or needs more soil / fertilizer?) Seemed to be targeted by bugs a bunch too. Had to treat with Neem oil and water with hydrogen peroxide a few times. But already has a lot of promising buds.

So this place is just flooded with ai bots & agitators now too... I need a break.

Books are tangible.

Good luck people.

Peace, Love, Liberty & Justice will light the way always.

Google's new ai ads are essentially asking humans to forgo their freewill & "ask Google" to think for them...

It's gross.

I never understood how some people think they can control everyone. That is the biggest delusion of power.

People disagree & will talk shit regardless, especially if you deserve it.

Most people learn how to cope with disagreement as a toddler.

It's not weakness to let others be, it's human.
