@exiliaex i'll need to look into it for these specific guys but they really seem to like hiding under structures they can also sun themselves on so possibly rock piles

i should make more habitat for the lizards

outside pretty, got to pet the cow a good bit and tried to help them get some flies off. wanna look into if they would appreciate help with keeping the flies off. wanna start getting more trees up in that pasture, just need to see what joe wants to use to protect them from the cows.

voters should be threatened more. these are freaks who in the pursuit of being a good little utilitarian christian are comfortable with power using their voices to impose itself on others. voters are literally a threat to free people but you're just supposed to accept what they're doing in the same terms as them because it's rude to reframe conservative world views especially when they use it to start screeching at you about marginalized people they tokenize

it's really important to understand that most people have literally zero issue with being governed, they just dont like the bits that make them feel disrespected but the standards for what's considered respectful governance drops every single year in typical wagie race to the bottom fashion. todays radicals are yesterdays upwardly mobile progressives who've been burned by having too romantic of a notion about how society ought to be run so they cry about the fight for a living wage and random social programs that make them feel like their government cares about them because at the base of it all is daddy issues naturally

if you value your autonomy the goal is obvious, make yourself and others unable to be captured by the state, it literally cannot function if it needs to expend significant energy to make even of a fraction of it's population work how it wants. normal slavery as a system collapsed because it's an incredibly costly endeavor to try to more or less completely reign in labour by force, but every "revolutionary" thinks that the best revolutionary subject is a troop but for a red flag instead of something that is fundamentally hostile to being used by power because they dont want to dismantle what exists at all. they look at the state with jealousy and resentment, not as something to be destroyed but something to be subverted and captured for their own grand plans. in doing so they provide a pathway back into the power structure for all the troops they've created who will eventually learn to be at peace with the powers that dominate them as they age and think they're still a radical by being in a workplace union they didnt start. they will continue to arm feed entertain and service the guards that keep them bound and decry anyone with more of a spine than them as some form of adventurist that gets in the way of working class unity.

any communist who comes to the conclusion that one of the worst things about capitalism is that people are divided and cant do a heckin collectivism have completely opposite politics to me. if you have even the slightest bit of self respect it's obvious that organized or centralized power is the biggest threat to your autonomy, stop talking about how the working class whatever the fuck that's supposed to mean is being divided

think i'm gonna spend the day tripping and collecting cow manure for the compost

@destroy i'm not even sure it's technically a pickaxe. it's got 3 prongs so it's good at grabbing the roots. i just put too much force pulling it back and the small of the handle before the head started splitting

broke a pickaxe today in a vicious struggle with a huge blackberry root cluster. we might be able to fix it but if not we gotta get new handle

good chance i'm gonna have infinity wood chips, this is what real wealth looks like

@fauxlosopher i'd rather get them as a part of a waste stream instead of at a store tbh, but also joe is gonna get the number for the guy with the huge pile of chips just up the road, we'll prob get it for free cause he usually brings them to the dump lol

@fauxlosopher i dont think so but theres a chance joe knows someone who has one

i really need to get another source of wood chips cause the pile we're using is going to be out once we're down with the garden. there are 3 big spots i wanna get chips down on (the treeline by the pasture fence behind the house, the area between the compost and the grapevines in front of the pond, and by the drainage pipe(s)) and if i can get chips down before the winter i'm way more prepared for spring. i'll prob try to talk to joe and kammys mom to see if they know anyone or can look some stuff up. still gotta get some shitty tarp stuff up from one of the areas and i'd eventually like to get a lot of work down out behind the pond but hopefully by then the compost is what i'm depositing in bulk though i'll still want some wood chips i think. need to find a few good spots to grow mushrooms, both the tasty and recreational(therapeutic) kind. we've got a whole cow pasture so it shouldnt be hard i've just gotta looks some stuff up and get some innoculant and i should be good. i suspect the area under the trees behind the house will be a really nice spot for mushrooms of all kinds once i get a bunch of chips down there. also wanna get some grows set up inside cause i do want to get a decent volume of them cause i need a lot more than other people seem to to get much of an effect.

got the brambles around the sprinklers cleared, we just gotta transport them over to the compost from where they were cut in the pasture, then we throw a bunch of manure on top of them, then buzz down the overgrown pathway near the pond, throw that stuff on top, then finish mowing the grass and rake that up on top. waiting on more garden progress until kammy and i can get up and shovel more dirt at joes place

i like that both on three sided tapes and oblivion access ugly expresses this bewilderment at people's fixation on money as security when it's anything but that

alie's arguing with one that's screeching about how white trannies are degenerates and it's like who do you think gave you this conception of moral/spiritual degeneration? all these tokens do is provide ammo for other reactionaries often explicit reactionaries to spread the idea that trans people are a foreign degeneration that should be controlled or removed. every community is trying to solve how to get to normal christian conservative values from whatever memes exist in their spaces because christian conservative values are big crowd pleasers and the only way to have power is to be popular

cannot emphasize how funny it is to watch brown reactionaries talk like dare officers with a sassy tone and think they're cool for it. you have adopted the morality of your great grandparents masters and you're acting like hot shit about it but because you're talking about how white people are degenerate druggies it means you're not a conservative because leftists are too racist to realize that it's not racist if you disagree with a brown person unless they say "i hate leftism"

gonna make some more progress on the vines in the garden area today and also fast. should be hitting the brambles tomorrow so the last big layer of material can get on the compost

alie has been talking to and petting the cows
