Backyard chickens.

They’re not for everyone. They function at about the level of a 4yo. 50lbs of feed will run you $20. If you’re fenced and let them roam, you use less feed. Straw. Mite prevention, which is food grade diatomaceous earth/powder. Water bowl heater for winter months.

Most municipalities allow for backyard chickens, 3-4. Roosters are another thing. They crow whenever they like and may hop/fly up where you don’t like them to be just to crow. I haven’t had issues with aggression, but they can be aggressive such that a posted beware of rooster sign will probably be believed.

So, who is going to offer themselves up as bait to find out what her scam angle is?

Scammers don’t spam unless it “sticks”.

I too received this.

Check your DMs. You’ll probably get one eventually.

The question that remains is: what does she want?

Fascinating in that it became the de facto hippy car. Either way, those bugs and buses are still around and easy to work on.

Wow.

Tesla is the new Trump Bible.

It seems like ever since the DOGE kids were posted on Reddit and Elon got mad the ban hammer has been out en force.

I can’t say I pay that much attention after seeing his face on it, gold and or silver colored.

He’s never stopped. Bibles, those weird digital fantasy representations of himself, coins…

I love browsing estate auctions. Maybe that makes me a voyeur of sorts, either way, the amount of Trump coins that show up, consistently, since 2021 or so shows how much they’re buying.

Trump is very clearly there to line his own pockets with these tariffs. Do they really need to cut all these federal jobs with all that new federal income?

‘Eau’ and ‘oi’ are the best I can do with that mess. Or a whole tray dump.

Sounds like a great sub to have over here.

Appeal to duck duck go?

There’s also slamming Reddit with more Lemmy talk. Maybe seed the standard Lemmy apps as Reddit apps and see what shakes out.

The star anise pod, there’s what, 8 in a family sized batch of broth? It’s still a strange garnish. Basil, not cilantro. Cilantro is for Thai soup.

Elon is haunting Reddit

There are many individuals who have upped their meds such that they do not have daily panic attacks. It’s not that people don’t know, it’s that they feel powerless. Some have gone to stand in streets with signs, only to go home to face the same problems unfixed by their actions and then have a panic attack.

Non controlled substance example, a buspar increase, additional hydroxyzine increase, and added blood pressure med. That’s not advice, that’s simply 1 example you’re not seeing happening. And it’s a common combo such that it’s pretty non-identifying, like metoprolol with baby aspirin.

The usual methods of protest are not working. And as much as people like to scream on Lemmy that old methods will work, let’s be realistic. They’re ignoring courts, laws, the us constitution, why would they listen to some “nobody” on a street in a city they don’t visit. I wish to god it were that simple but this is a new order, you’ll need new methods.

In the meantime, who do you call? There’s no customer service line where someone takes your governance complaint and offers a resolution.

Do you know anyone with any governance power at all? Most don’t.

Common reported feelings include: elephant sitting on my chest (overlapping symptom between heart attack and panic attack), feeling ready to “climb the walls”, despair, controlled fear, suffocation, among others.

The feelings are there, but to what effective actions?

Inertia is one of the driving forces of humanity.

I admit, at first glance, I thought I was looking at a still shot of Hoth.

Because MAGA wants what’s under the ice after global warming makes it accessible, never mind the problems with that rationale.

It’s also why they want Greenland and will fully exploit public parkland.

Resale is irrelevant. First sale, new, is Al that affects Elon.

Do the public art, like the 0 to 1939 ads in London. It’s part of the landscape, vandalizes nothing, and is highly visible messaging.

Ads work or they wouldn’t be on display. Use the same type of playbook with public art in this vein

COVID was somehow the visceral turning point. Variations on visitor restrictions in hospitals still exist since then due to the extraordinary and amazing displays of bad behavior from that time.

People could always behave badly. Direct care staff, as one example, have been wearing panic buttons linked directly to security and calling a violence code over the announcement system, since around 2015 on the medical side of things.

But COVID was a severe escalation point. Families screaming in hallways that the diagnoses was “fake news” or part of the hospitals “corporate conspiracy” escalating to the point of pulling medical equipment off their loved ones, who could not breathe without that medical equipment.

Behaviors that could potentially kill people wrapped up in an inexorable belief that science was lying. No trust of medical personnel who are there to help whatever the system around them contrives to do with care.

While the behaviors are not like COVID times any more, there’s a residual skepticism of, well, everything since that time. Sadly, one that is preyed upon by politics to keep us fighting one another instead of punching up.

Forgive me, maybe “punching up” is now a ban-worthy turn of phrase.
