@MollyDavis543 I am often the only one who is served my own tweets in my feed so tons of them have 1 view 🤣

Why am I hidden under "spam" in replies to my own tweets? "Free speech Twitter" is ridiculous.

@MaceAhWindu Turns out it was another robbery scheme to bailout wall st. and put in a lot more mass surveillance in public without anyone noticing.

The pandemic if anything made people more openly mean. I can’t tell you how eye opening it was to hear people openly saying ‘who cares, it’s only killing old people’ 2020 was a pretty big year for me in terms of my political values being more strongly defined.

@NoFarmsNoFoods It's a good thing our cows don't all traverse the globe in private jets. It could really be harmful to the ecosystem.

“Cows have a digestion system that emits methane. We need to change cows and work towards artificial meat.” ~ Bill Gates He doesn’t mention that methane from cows breaks down into CO2 & water after 10 years. Grass absorbs the CO2 by photosynthesis & the cycle repeats itself.

@fivestarmichael Tons of gender war slop. Common men and women would be way better off without endless war conducted by a bunch of the most disgusting amd awful humans who do things like rape children.

Large accounts on X will post something stupid and set the entire tone for what is discussed on here for the next 48 hours. All conversations are driven by the algorithm deciding what is relevant, keeping discussion within acceptable guardrails. Conversations about the Epstein files, soaring housing prices, insane inflation and the dismal economy are muted and sidetracked.

@giveashitnature Well I just did get rid of some yew bushes and even cut out their stumps. But while I was working I saw very few critters, probably because yew is highly toxic. My intention is to replace them with 50+ plant species, many natives, and mostly edible this spring.

Don't pull that old stump in your yard! It's an entire ecosystem. A decaying tree stump is habitat for beetles, ants, millipedes, centipedes, fungi, salamanders, and the woodpeckers that eat all of them. It slowly breaks down into soil, feeding your yard as it goes. The instinct to pull a stump is purely aesthetic. It's doing nothing wrong. It's doing work. Grinding a stump out costs a few hundred dollars, kills everything living in it, and leaves you with a pile of ground wood that was better off where it started. Letting it decay naturally costs nothing and hosts dozens of species for a decade or more. If it's in the way of something, sure, pull it. If it's just sitting in a corner of the yard being unbothered by anyone, leave it. The things living in it are not asking for your permission. A yard with a few stumps is a yard doing work. A yard without any is a yard you've manicured into a desert.

@Boudicca61AD .

I got 8 bullshit violations this morning, one after another for violent speech. They also gave me a 24 hour ban. I appealed & won them all bar one, which I removed. They now have me on a full shadow ban for posting PALESTINIAN ART, like WTF! If you see this post on your feed, leave a dot, I'd appreciate🙏

@metalmartin6669 It is supposedly superior to butter in popcorn but I am not sure

Anyone else use ghee for cooking? I think it is great in the cast iron.

In July in Mexico 🇲🇽 you won’t be able to use your phone without a Biometric Digital ID face scan. Stored in a globally interoperable database. In Australia 🇦🇺 you can’t access social media without Biometric Digital ID. And UK 🇬🇧 is rolling out a huge expansion to their facial recognition cameras. You guessed it, globally interoperable. And the digital vax pass. And mass immigration “who’s allowed to be in our country?” Said both Tony Blair and William Hague. It’s literally the plan. They literally wrote it down and told us what they were doing.

Immense respect, love, and peace to Dr. Adnan al-Bursh. Let us not forget his name, his heroism, and to bring justice for the horrifically evil crimes against him.

"This Palestinian doctor was raped and tortured to death by IDF soldiers for 120 days straight. His name is Dr. Adnan al-Bursh. Repost this." x.com/Jvnior/status/…

Exactly.

There are a lot of conservatives on “Team Flock Camera,” but I’m not okay with a surveillance state. If we allow this, Chinese-style social credit is coming.

@LZatYT @lvnupe @Ericrse37986 I love this meme, especially because it is true and they can't stop standing there. It is their job in the empire to be there.

@lvnupe @Ericrse37986

I don't know who needs to hear this but while y'all are squabbling about Hassan piker and a podcast that can help bring all kinds of Voters into the party to vote in 26 and 28, y'all gave a platform to this shrieking misogynist body shaming cry baby.

Highly recommend!

@acottagemouse Yup. My mom had to learn true from scratch cooking on her own. Same with breastfeeding. It was considered low class, dirty, and not as good as formula in my grandmother's time. The 2nd wave feminists confronted this and other medical myths about birth being a "procedure"

“Cook like your grandma!” Meanwhile, our grandma’s recipes are like: Mix crisco with ritz crackers, a cup of sugar, & a few drops of food coloring, then bake in a jello mold with processed cheese product. Top with mayonnaise or miracle whip, for the health conscious

In 2020, a small city in Wisconsin told its residents they could stop mowing for a month. 435 households joined in. The bees came back the same spring. Appleton was the first US city to adopt No Mow May. The city council suspended its weed ordinance for the month so residents wouldn't get cited for tall grass. Around 40 acres of lawn across the city went uncut. Researchers from Lawrence University sampled the unmowed lawns and nearby mowed city parks in the same week. The unmowed lawns had 5 times as many bees and 3 times as many bee species as the mowed parks. Wisconsin is home to nearly 500 native bee species. Most people have never seen them because they don't live in honeybee hives. They're solitary bees, ground nesters, small black or metallic green insects that fit on a fingernail. Appleton's unmowed yards gave them food and shelter in the hungry early-spring window when almost nothing else is blooming. The experiment cost the city nothing. It saved residents fuel and labor. It produced measurable ecological results within 30 days. Dozens of US cities have adopted the practice since. Has yours?

@IsraelinSF @SFCity_Hall Why does Israel have an independence day? It has never been able to stand on its own. It would cease to exist tomorrow without the constant money and military support it lobbies the U.S. for constantly.

In honor of Israel’s Independence Day, San Francisco City Hall was lit in blue and white🇮🇱 Thank you @SFCity_Hall

If you plant one thing for wildlife this year, make it native bee balm. Bee balm blooms in July and August, which is exactly when almost nothing else is blooming. Spring flowers are done, fall asters and goldenrod haven't started, and pollinators hit a nectar gap in the hottest part of summer. The tubular flowers are custom-built for hummingbirds. The depth of the tube matches a ruby-throated hummingbird's bill and tongue exactly, and the red of scarlet bee balm (Monarda didyma) is the color hummingbirds see best. They'll find a patch from surprisingly far away.The flowers also feed bumble bees, sweat bees, carpenter bees, leaf-cutter bees, monarchs, swallowtails, and the clearwing moths that look like tiny hummingbirds themselves. Goldfinches and chickadees eat the seed heads through fall and winter. It's a perennial. It spreads by underground runners. Plant it once, get more every year for free.Three native species to know: scarlet bee balm (Monarda didyma) for hummingbirds, wild bergamot (Monarda fistulosa) for native bees, and spotted bee balm (Monarda punctata) for dry or sandy soil. All three are hardy across most of the US.Native species, not hybrid cultivars. The breeding that made modern hybrids prettier also made them less useful to pollinators and more prone to mildew. One plant, one summer, and your yard becomes the best stretch of the season for every hummingbird in the neighborhood.

It’s crazy Boeing got away with killing that guy
