spoke with the executive director of my local food bank today and got this really incredible line: "if you donate 1 can of green beans, we can give away 1 can of green beans. but if you donate a dollar, we can give away 6 cans of green beans"

Newspaper clipping from April 28, 1993.
In Hirase Village (Gifu Prefecture) a tanuki and fox were found passed out together after drinking 2 cups of sake left out as an offering to the gods.
A local snapped this photo several hours before the pair woke up and staggered back into the forest.

A victory garden for a family of 5 which took up the size of land of a two bedroom house would last you about 50ish days worth of food, it was designed to be supplemental to the limited rations.

Glad that someone has finally taken responsibility for the appalling assault on democracy that was the Jan. 6 insurrection.

Slightly confused that it's the Director-General of the BBC, but what do I know?

It's Thanksgiving Day.
It's late November and it's snowing. That in-between-season, not-quite-cold-enough variety of ugly snow that's half snow, half rain, half slush and half mud. It's wet, dank, miserable and dreary out there.

1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️
