We don't have a scarcity problem.
We have abundance hoarded by a maze of corporations designed to extract the maximum amount of currency for every product, property, utility or service we need to survive.

So authoritarianism is just when a leader has committed enough crimes that their only way to stay out of jail is to hold on to power, so they keep committing crimes?

So at what point will the drop in tourism push Airbnb investment property owners to release their hoards of prime city real estate assets flooding the market & plummeting housing prices across the spectrum like a tidal wave of affordability?

Emerald & Scarlet Colonnade Apple Trees
Started yellowing and falling from the bottom up. Kinda nice ombre gradient probably becomes more pronounced as it grows. Added fresh charcoal, compost, soil & mulch along with the others. Buds look smaller/fewer than the first year, maybe develop overwinter?

The goal of a country's economy should be to increase the value of its currency so its people can all access the abundance of their own labor & creation.
Not a race to gather the highest number of ever devaluing dollars while most struggle to afford to continue to survive.
Scarcity is unnecessary.

Billionaires, the solution is clear, it is employment. Employ people, like way more than you need. Give them good jobs where they are treated fairly & able to live good lives. Value the humans on earth with you & build a community. There is no scarcity. You don't need that much to lead a great life.

Highbush blueberry
Nice bright colors, branches looking thick, looks like good bloom set for next year. 4-8 berries this year, think the inside bloom messed up the timing of the berries. Hopefully it will establish outside & have a more natural cycle next year. Will cover soil for the winter.

Pink lemonade blueberry bush
Nice reds on the leaves & next year looks good, branches turning red. No berries this year but looks hearty for next year, my take a few to produce. Will cover soil, coal compost & mulch... Leaving side stone dirt free... Maybe mulch or stones... Still thinking.

It's a tough habit to unlearn, but the less you use IG; the less effective it becomes.
When its feed loses effectiveness, you use it in shorter intervals, so it collects less data.
After a certain threshold the slop it serves becomes less potent & begins to repel you with a relevancy death spiral.

Crypto currencies are imaginary investments which artificially self-inflate based on trade bots synchronized selling frequency through the daily currency & market exchange cycles.
It's genuinely a global counterfeit currency parasite which steals from the whole world through inflation.
It's greed.
