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
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
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"
got the two trees planted and starting to expand the front garden. not gonna dig up the clay, just put a bunch of dirt on some lawn spot and gonna cover it really deep with chips. gonna start clearing the vines out from the wall and put chips down and get the grapes there supported and get rid of the brambles trying to cover them. soaked the compost with pond water but i'd really like to get a lot more material on there both from the garden and the brambles and some other green material nearby the compost to help decompose things underneath better. know how to mess with the irrigation lines in a few places better now

sort of lazy day because i was in a wow dungeon longer than i thought but alie got more chips in the garden and i got to give the cows a big treat from some of the grass i was raking up. bro just walked over to me while i was raking up and really liked it i'm assuming cause it was more fresh cut so i brought out a bunch for them when i went out to swap the sprinklers. really looking forward to growing and harvesting that a lot more intentionally for them.
spent most of the day taking down and cleaning up a big tree branch so i havent even finished gathering the grass i cut yesterday, got a big splinter from the rake and decided to call it good for the day lol. on the upside i got a new brushpile going, hoping that's good habitat for the bunnies around here, i should hopefully have something planted out around there for them sometime next year
got shit planted, only was able to get the chips on top of the areas we planted out but wanna finish the rest up soon. got a bunch of the grass mowed but i'm going to have to finish collecting it for the compost in the morning and also finish mowing a few areas. should have a ton of material for the pile. more plans to keep a specific section of the grass long but this time with a plan for seasonal harvest as a way to give treats for the cows while still keeping it as novel habitat for most of the year. have a lot of clay dirt fill to work with once we clear off some brambles off of it, could start using that for earthworks stuff to help keep water on the land longer, though i need to see how water moves here in the rainy/wet season.
