hi, on a serious note, if you feel dangerous despair today or just need someone to talk to, please don't hold that weight by yourself -- ask friends and find someone who can listen. (cont'd)

there are a few ways - personally i go to a local farm and buy a nucleus colony that has bees, a queen, and a couple frames of brood and honey to get started. that's the expensive/easy way
the other way is mail order! the post office will deliver you bees (usually from CA or TX)

my personal 'getting through election day' strategy has been to work as an election judge - you're legally required to not talk politics, which is kinda great. unfortunately for me i was feeling overcommitted and didn't sign up this year. new strategy will be 'being online too much'

it's so weird how one side is always trying to suppress the vote and the other is always trying to expand it, I wonder if it means anything! oh well I guess we'll never figure it out.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court allows Virginia to engage in a late voter-purge program that two lower courts held is likely illegal under federal law. The Republican appointees did so over the objection of the Democratic appointees.

tbf, even if no one ever subscribed again, Jeff Bezos could create an endowment to pay salaries and pensions to every journalist who works for The Washington Post until the Earth is swallowed up by the Sun rather than punish the ones who work there now for the consequences of a decision he made.
The @washingtonpost.com has lost 200,000 subscribers, @npr.org says.
I understand the anger; many in the newsroom are angry, too. But how many stories won't get reported, and how many journalists will lose their jobs, because of a decision they had nothing to do with?

i've been saying this for years, just lighting the money on fire would still be a net good for society
People always point out that taxing the super-wealthy wouldn't actually raise all that much revenue, but it's becoming clearer that the primary benefit is just taking away their money.
