Kristi Noem has been working with the producer of “Duck Dynasty” to pitch a reality TV show—titled “The American”—where immigrants will compete in a string of challenges across the country “for the honor of fast-tracking their way to U.S. citizenship,” according to a new report.

No one should be detained for their political speech.

Succinctly: it will never make (environmental, cost, safety, space efficient) sense to move a 140lb person in a 3 ton vehicle.
A typical European car is parked 92% of the time. It spends 1/5th of its driving time looking for parking. Its 5 seats only move 1.5 people. 86% of its fuel never reaches the wheels, and most of the energy that does, moves the car, not the people.

Sound efficient?

Jia Zhangke’s “Caught by the Tides”—a mostly archival film featuring some two decades’ worth of material—documents individual Chinese lives amid ceaseless social, cultural, economic, and technological change. Read @justincchang.bsky.social's review.
“Caught by the Tides” Is a Gorgeous Vision of Loss and Renewal
More than two decades in the making, Jia Zhangke’s mostly archival film embodies the sweeping transformations of modern China in its very construction.

I just finished reading @michaelluo.bsky.social’s extraordinary book “Strangers in the Land.”

It’s a must-read.

Interesting that if you shop at Whole Foods, a lot of money is spent making it feel like a place that respects workers and embraces progressive values, but it is not.

Costco just feels like a warehouse but they treat their workers pretty well and has rejected anti-DEI BS

And that’s assuming that nothing bad happens and none of your crops fail. With no real experience, and with how much time and effort is needed to do it, you’re likely to starve to death. Stop watching homesteading TikToks uncritically and read @gabydvj.bsky.social
