Journalism no longer has any integrity. They've thrown it away.

"Social justice" = "giving people things they didn't earn".

The fact that a news site can put "mediocre whites" in the headline of an article with zero repercussions, but refusing to capitalize the "b" in black goes against the standard journalist style guide shows that systemic racism does, in fact, exist. It's just not aimed at the races they claim it is.

Just in case you might need a reminder that the elected officials don't care about you remember this statement from nancy here, this is from before the became the lame duck speaker of the house here.

She said it because she knew it and she was holding it hostage so people would vote blue and then when they didn't she didn't bring it up on the floor of congress even though she still had the majority and they could have pushed it through while lame ducks.

Right up till January 2023 when the new congress took office they could have done this, but they didn't, because this way they can point at the other guy and pretend to care about you while stabbing you in the back.

you got played if you think this is the fault of the SCOUTS

That's perfectly fine. I'll go elsewhere

This is what the free market is about. Sell to who you want and don’t sell to who you don’t want to. Let the shoppers decide your fate

Honestly wish more stores would do this. Makes it very easy to tell where not to spend my money

A friend points me to this remarkable article in the French centre-right news magazine L’Express, on Germany’s increasingly unwelcome soft-power efforts to undermine French energy policy:

Their names are Rosa Luxemburg and Heinrich Böll. These German political foundations don’t make the headlines, but they’re deliberately undermining the French nuclear industry according to a recent report by the School of Economic Warfare. Their weapons? Drafting documents according to an anti-nuclear narrative, guiding the elites through training courses … visiting and meeting foreign politicians, forming alliances with specific NGOs and environmentalist parties …
This influence peddling benefits from substantial financial resources. According to the report, the German Bundestag's overall allocation to all political foundations is constantly increasing: from €295 million in 2000, to over €466 million in 2014, and finally €690 million by 2023! For report author Christian Harbulot, the message is clear: Behind all the rhetoric about cooperation between EU member states, Germany is doing everything in its power to prevent French industry from benefiting from cheap energy and thus gaining a competitive advantage.
These comments echo those of former EDF [Électricité de France] head Henri Proglio. “The thirty-year German obsession has been the disintegration of EDF. They've succeeded,” he said last December during a hearing as part of the parliamentary enquiry into French loss of energy independence. In a recent report, L’Express also revealed German efforts across Europe to exclude nuclear power from all mechanisms of financial support. And with foundations like Heinrich Böll, which has offices in Paris, the project of undermining [French nuclear power generation] is also being carried out on French soil ...

Why didnt y'all pay attn 2 yrs ago when this shit started. Too late now.

Nobody wanted to listen, in fact they’re probably still nodding their heads “this is fine”

I grow our own vegetables. Many hybrid and heirloom varieties are bred for flavor rather than for commercial appeal and travel. There are entire species on the allotment that you can’t easily buy in stores because of this - like salsify, a root vegetable that tastes of fish and shellfish. Our neighbours happily take it to make vegan latkes of alarming similarity to fishcakes. You cannot sell it in stores because - despite looking like a white parsnip - it turns brown when you pick it if you scrape/bruise/cut the white root in any way, or damage the delicate little hairs, for some reason, it BLEEDS RED and is very upsetting to look at.

There are whole classes of foods like this. Foods that just don’t ship well or look good on supermarket shelves. Forbidden fruits. Vegetables that bleed and taste like meat. Sorry about this

This website is one of my fav places to find interesting heirloom stuff! I ordered a bunch of seeds to try growing next year I’m really excited about!

@angelsaxis

I’ve gotten and plants seeds from that site, Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds, and they grow fantastically well for me.

I’m really looking forward to next season

Baker Creek Heirloom has good seeds but bad politics. They were going to host Cliven Bundy of the Occupation of Malheur National Wildlife Reserve who’s also pro the Capitol Riots and has made a lot of racist nastiness, although backlash made them cancel their guest list (which included other racist folks)

Good sources of heirloom seeds:

^^^

Highly recommend Native Seed/Search and Truelove. Baker Creek has an amazingly large catalog and has some very cool and rare stuff, but they are also Mennonites and as you might expect, they do have terrible politics as listed above, although they do some decent work preserving heirloom seeds from threatened communities.

An organization that does really interesting work preserving seed from threatened communities (and larger companies like baker creek often piggyback off of some of the work done by orgs like this and NS/S) is the Experimental Farm Network. They are very explicit about their (left-leaning) political views and you don’t have to worry about them being Problematic. They have lots of interesting and rare varieties and species you really cannot find anywhere else.

If you are looking for a wider selection of heirloom seed varieties, these two companies are very good resources as well, and carry many of the same things as Baker Creek. Afaik they are not expressly political beyond their general mission to preserve heirloom seeds (although southern exposure does a good job of preserving some very traditional african-American heirlooms from the Southeast US in particular).

Omg I hadn’t heard of the Experimental Farm Network and I am delighted! I am also completely thrilled to see people other than me remember that Baker Creek is a bunch of lying fash. They claimed they did not know about Cliven Bundy AFTER VISITING HIM IN JAIL. He was literally in jail for his anti-social bullshit when they first talked to him about the watermelons he and his mentor stole from Indigenous people and made their name on. They also take seeds from Indigenous communities globally and profit from them without sharing those profits with the communities they took the seeds from.

…I am blocked by them on Twitter after publicizing the Cliven Bundy crap, full disclosure, I have an actual feud with these people and their unethical practices.

I was trying to get signal in the goddamn Himalayas to argue with them about Bundy. *grumble*

I also second Native Seed/SEARCH as a great org doing great work. Some of their stuff is so desert-adapted it won’t grow for me, but I’ve had great luck with some of their bean varieties.

I can vouch for Southern Seed Exchange!
