It takes 30 days to grow a radish. Also 2/3 of the country is already in or entering winter.
On Threads, the usual suspects are telling ppl about to lose SNAP benefits to just start a garden. As a gardener, I had to laugh. You need at LEAST an acre of land to feed a family of 4. Start-up costs are enormous. But yes, subsistence farming on the balcony of your rental apartment is the answer

I once saw a noxious campus preacher at Ohio State completely lose his composure when a guy wearing a tuxedo and a Yoda mask walked up and started staring at him. Same principle.

My recent 18,000 word newsletter took me maybe 7 hours total between note taking, research and writing, and maybe 15 diet cokes, the human brain is truly remarkable
I wrote a 15 page report on heraldic symbolism in medieval armor and weapon design for my art history class the night before it was due (8am class). Made up 90% of it (only found one book for reference) and got an A. GenAI could fucking never.

It happened. Last night I was feeling despair about a lot of different things and I realized I needed to enlist my dog’s help to make me feel better.

Trump deploys Federal agents across D.C. streets amid vow to crack down on crime. The facts contradict the pretext: Washington, D.C. has seen declining crime rates in recent years, violent crime hitting a *30-year low* in 2024, according to the U.S. Justice Department. www.npr.org/2025/08/11/n...
Federal agents spread out across D.C. streets amid Trump's vow to crack down on crime
President Trump promised a weekend crackdown on Washington, D.C.'s homeless population and criminals. Trump activated federal agents to also be a show of force across the district.

The Trump admin said the Everglades detention camp would be for the “worst of the worst.”

Four men sent there so far have nothing on their record other than recent arrests for diving without a license, and were likely only arrested due to racial profiling, as Adam’s excerpt shows.
