Fabulous - you are well loved and put on a damn good show, thrilled for you. And for me, as I'll be there

Like you, I go to oat because, from what I understand, it is the least resource-heavy of the options that we have. And suited to growing in our climate as well

Thank you, you beautiful people. All very simple through Dice, which I prefer anyway. See you in September, can't wait!

Very frustrating - booted off AXS site from 10:02 onwards ("sorry, something went wrong try again") and now it appears that there are no presale tickets left. Has anyone else encountered this?

Powerful, diplomatic, forward-looking, while also acting as a call to arms to current cap-doffers such as our own (UK) PM. I fear that Keir won't pay heed

The USA doing its best to mark the 100 year anniversary of the rise of fascism in Europe;
The Traitors on TV;
The Traitors in Westminster;
Spring bulbs are starting to pop up already.

As with efforts to free indoctrinated minds from cults, they need to work things out for themselves, so haranguing or preaching (not saying you are) rarely works - rather lay out facts that allow them agency to reach their own conclusions, to reach a light bulb themselves. It's not easy, good luck

Good luck with the Nish count

Terrifyingly, I think they see this as an opportunity to provoke demonstrations, which they will then quell with brute force. It's all so ugly

And ego. He wants to go down as one of a handful of presidents that increased the territory of the USA. Along the way he'll look to enrich himself as well, of course

I've retrained in horticulture in the last couple of years. Here is my hour-long (so I can track time) playlist of garden-related titles that I listen to when working. I'll add a second hour of tunes at some point
