My dear friend and hero in local activism, Bob Waldrop wrote a book, really a compendium of resources on permaculture, frugal living, gardening, and so much more.

Bob has passed on back in 2019, but I think it is important that he not be forgotten, so I’ve decided to […]

I'm pretty sure the stationary animal is a skunk, but I can't quite make out the one scurrying away. I don't think it's a cat, and it doesn't move like a skunk. What does it look like to you? This is in western PA, USA. I'm going to reposition the camera tonight to try for a better view...

#facts

Social media post from just-shower-thoughts: When people talk about traveling to the past, they worry about radically changing the present by doing something small, but barely anyone in the present really thinks that they can radically change the future by doing something small.

My church is doing a free soup-and-sandwich meal today. I've got a pot of soup beans on. It's amazing how a smell can elicit memories and emotions. 🧑‍🍳

This Dad is a Rolemodel

Guy starts a food pantry in tote outside his house. Tote gets stolen. Cops are called. Makes news. Tote returned (empty). People leave full totes in his yard. You'll never believe what happens next...

The whole song doesn't have rage feels, but it's an album I'll put on when feeling rage.
