Also, I've been posting videos on farm worker problems for over a year. I've seen the stats on what people click on. A LOT of people would rather click on yet another puff piece about Ballerina Farm than hear about farm workers.
If anyone's ready for a break from "elections don't matter, we can't win, & both parties are the same anyway," here's one. youtu.be/GlxveqpM4iM

For every 50 people who sign up through this link by midnight on Sunday, I will post one (1) poll dance There will be logging chaps πͺπͺ
It's true. Our local county election board always needs poll workers (because most are QUITE old and no one lives forever). You get to meet some of the most public-spirited and upstanding folks in your community AND do something very practical to protect democracy.
Sarah Taber@sarahtaber.bsky.social Β· 2mo agoFacts! There's nothing that stops the doomscrolling dead in its tracks like "Go out & do something very direct & hands-on about the problem." And they'll pay π you π to π do π it! powerthepolls.org/creator-sara...
The russian terrorists keep fighting against goods and hunanitarian aid for kids in Ukraine. The UN still lacks balls to even pronounce the word βrussiaβ in their reports, but at least they canβt keep quiet forever.

The ag lobby really, really, really, really, really, really, really wants you to think AI is the reason reservoirs are going empty. It's not. It's agriculture.

And if Bill Gates being a "real farmer" makes us feel icky, maybe it's a good time to unpack why we still think- in a country that we all know was founded on kidnapping people to work on farms, both big & small- that "farmer" can only be a title of honor.
California just became the first major grid system on the planet to generate more than 50% of its electricity from solar across an entire month.
Hear me out: this is even wilder than it looks. Out in the ag world, Taylor Farms was THE instigator for a lot of the big food safety moves for lettuce over the last 20 years. That's a legacy that just should NOT have ended up like this.

Yep. As a small farmer & big believer in conservation: lots of "farm conservation easements" are, unfortunately, scams that kneecap agriculture. Not help it. It's the same hustle as farm subsidies. "Let's throw free money at landowners. So they don't have to treat farming like a real job."
