But if we canโt secure medical expertise (b/c doctors canโt ethically promote death) to insure that executions arenโt grotesque,
then we definitely shouldnโt do it.

On Threads, the usual suspects are telling ppl about to lose SNAP benefits to just start a garden. As a gardener, I had to laugh. You need at LEAST an acre of land to feed a family of 4. Start-up costs are enormous. But yes, subsistence farming on the balcony of your rental apartment is the answer

I mean, Iโm fine with saving it, but we gotta move it to, like, Golden Gate Park or something. It was built to back up against the elevated freeway and to block it visually and aurally. Now that the freeway is gone, itโs out of place, and blocks movement and views.
Thanks for sharing. Lovely story about your cousin, gone too soon.

I swear, in about twenty years, wealthy countries are going to be competing for immigrants, and wondering why they didn't bring in a whole lot of people twenty years earlier so their grew-up-here kids would be ready to join the workforce.
