I don’t drive usually. I walk to a small grocery store which is about 5 minutes away. If I need specialty items I can bike to a bigger supermarket in about 10 minutes.

I’m afraid not.

It’s heavily censored by the admins who subscribe to a highly authoritarian ideology. It’s very misleading because it’s not in the rules anywhere but a frank discussion of any issues relating to the governments of China, Russia, or several other nations aligned with them will be labeled “bigotry” and you will be banned.

First, pinworms only cause mild illness. My point was your child won’t die from eating random plants with a few exceptions that are easy to learn.

Second, pinworms are not spread by animals, only human to human. I don’t think eating plants is likely to be a vector.

Truth, justice, and the American way!

Would people stop actions against Tesla in that case though? I am hoping we can destroy his wealth, so while him being CEO is a relevant factor, it’s far from the only one.

Not really a thing in my area, excepting aquatic plants. Can’t speak to the whole world.

What is censored on these instances? I haven’t seen much except against far right ideas. Not sure what they’re complaining about.

I won’t participate in any .ml communities anymore, sorry. It’s not possible to have an honest discussion of reality there.

If it was hosted elsewhere I’d be interested.

I’m saying the reason people might get called a tankie is not because they support Gaza. In fact, I’ve never seen that accusation in relation to this conflict. Rather, it’s because tankies support countries like Israel in other conflicts. So it’s almost the exact opposite of what you say. Campism is the problem here because it forces them to defend the indefensible.

By the way, tankie is not just a pejorative for leftist. It’s a term created by leftists to criticize members of the movement who are perceived to have abandoned the core goal of human liberation that being a leftist has always been about. Maybe some liberals use it wrongly sometimes but it was never about them.

There’s usually just a handful of dangerously poisonous plants in any given area. If you learn those then most other stuff should be safe-ish.

You seem confused. People get called tankies for being in favor of the guys with the tanks, not the ones being blown up by them.

Not a local but sharing the word since this is highly needed.

Boycotts traditionally require a lot of coordination to make them work. They require:

  • a target (who is supposed to change behavior)
  • a demand (so the target knows what they have to do to get the boycott to stop)
  • boycotters (a lot of people who used to be customers refusing to be customers anymore)
  • leadership/negotiation committee (people who can show the target they’re hurting their bottomline and negotiate over demands)
  • a way to communicate with the boycotters (a structure and massive social reach!).
 

Hope this is on topic enough. Nice job to Angelenos for standing up to these bullies and defending our transit projects.

 

Would like to see this model across the whole world! Local people are the backbone of any truly sustainable conservation plan.

 

Walking? For 20 minutes? My father did not make all this money for me to be forced to mingle with you commoners

Candy caps (Lactatius rubidus) are fruiting abundantly on the Northern California coast right now. My family and I picked about 2 pounds today. For those unfamiliar, these mushrooms develop a strong maple flavor and odor when dried.

I’ve never had so many before, so I’m interested if anyone has made anything interesting with these. I’ve made ice cream in the past which was excellent but it might be good to mix things up a bit.

I’m particularly interested to see how they would work in more savory dishes and if anyone has eaten them fresh. Is it worth doing or do they need to be dried to be appreciated properly?

Hope this fits here. It's more of a skit than the usual deep-dive video essay but I found it entertaining and critical of some harmful capitalist systems :)

 

FYI I changed the title because the original was kind of click-baity.
