I’ve devoted the last 12 years of my life to imagining and creating a model of farming that blends the realities of modern corporatism with the idea that the public good should not be enclosed by their profits.

And then I wrote a book about it, which I hope you’ll share: stan.store/sylvanaquafa...

Maybe $50k in benefits per month.

Our hubris is astonishing.

They’ve been crafting this group for decades.

This particular ‘issue’ is genuinely heinous; but I’d argue these billboards STILL miss the mark: Drunk is never an excuse with a date, either (or with a friend, girl/boyfriend, spouse, etc.).

I want to be… incrementally well-informed, lol.

We do, & we also need to hit Meta where it hurts. :-/ I’ve been on IG for more years than I care to admit! & it has given me a type of community I do not have IRL. 🩵Hard choices ahead. I won’t judge!

We stopped being over there. :) I’m going incremental: planning to disengage for awhile before pulling the entire plug. Reduce engagement, then reduce presence.

At 4yo, my son learned that the sun doesn’t set, rather, the earth turns away from the sun. We used those metal spinny things at old playgrounds to learn how bodies can be {still, & still in motion} when on a moving spinny thing. He’s 7 now & is ADAMANT about earth’s spherical form. #ParentingWin

I was first introduced to Pyramid Head in a video of him (it?) dancing to JT’s “Sexy Back”. I know Silent Hill is top-rated gaming horror, but I can never experience it that way now.

AI & the atomic bomb… just because we can, doesn’t mean we should.

Balance is for people afraid to burn for nothing.

It’s the economy. They gotta cast a wiiiiide net.

I’m raising a 7yo boy in American right now (I accept your pity), & the Hero-Enemy trope is *everywhere* from such a young age. It’s insidious; mitigating that narrative is a FT job.

Bonhoeffer that $hit! Drastic times call for drastic measures. • Decency & niceness literally got us here, as they’re just ways we avoid the necessary discomforts of our own failures & shame—& as a society, when you cannot face failures & shame, you create… Trumps. Plural.

I think we’re in another Dark Age. We don’t get the luxury of being “post ethics”. Yes, we’re very much living in a time where Good does not seem to triumph, but Winning isn’t the main goal, right? That’s Trump’s thing. He cheats at checkers for instant gratification. We play chess.
