The Last Farm

Death to America
Death to Israel
Long live Iran

The lib brain must be studied by science

If you can’t see the connection between settler colonialism and fascism, then you need to read a book

A car. Doesn’t me you have to love cars

People love cars too, both are signs of mental rot

I'm going big on these plants in 2026, Part 2 Another edible native for your garden

The 2nd installment in my native edible plant series is here!

I wrote about an oak shrub perfectly suited to small gardens that pumps out high-quality food under tough conditions with zero inputs. It’s also an ecological powerhouse that supports hundreds of native insects & mammals

Americans spend more than 3 billion hours **per year** pushing or riding gas-powered lawnmowers. That’s the equivalent of 187,500 people working full-time just on lawn mowing

It’s hard to imagine a more vacuous & destructive embodiment of unearned wealth & ecological ignorance

Love this part

Yeah you could say I have a lot going on this month

I'm going big on these plants in 2026, Part 1 Edible, native species that have worked great for me

I’ve started writing a new series on edible native plants

Based on my own testing, these are species that belong in your garden, where they can provide abundant, low-input yields while forming the bedrock of a healthy ecosystem open.substack.com/pub/thelastf...

Had to try it

Super good, tart and fruity with a complex herbal finish from the turmeric. Great condiment for anything fatty

This new study shows that restoring peatlands—which cover just 3% of the Earth’s surface but store 2x as much carbon as all forests combined—can restart long-term carbon sequestration in just a few decades

This is the real “carbon capture & storage”

Not tylenol or vaccines, dumbasses

Weird take

This is an ultra-efficient wood-burning masonry heater with an integrated oven and stovetop

If this is fueled by a regenerative supply chain—such as a coppice or invasive management program—it’s vastly more sustainable than high-tech heat pumps and induction cooktops

Meanwhile, in Venezuela, the commune movement in collaboration with the Ministry of Food just opened a grocery store in Caracas with prices 50% lower than market. As many products as possible are sourced from communes around the country

In America’s class war, only one side is fighting for control of the land

The only ones, in fact!

It’s 100% clearcut. Species that co-evolved in a given geographic range form a web of interdependencies that support their lifecycles; introduced species do not. If species A supports thousands of insects in a given range & species B does not, and species B is displacing species A, then= invasive

It’s literally defined in the first sentence of the sheet I posted. Real scientists and ecologists do not struggle with this very simple question, only people looking to making excuses for inaction or participation in the destruction of biodiversity

Ignorant apologia for invasive species is rampant, sometimes coupled with nonsense about supposedly harmful language yada yada

The reality is that invasive species have created a global ecological crisis and exterminating them should be a top priority

How To Make Change On The Path To Victory

“But what should we actually DO?”

To answer that question, you must first understand how to make change open.substack.com/pub/thelastf...

That’s because it’s an overview. You can’t make a good faith critique unless you’re willing to dig deeper. It’s a single interview covering a broad range of topics

I agree that petro-socialism is a contradiction. But what I see here is country grappling to implement an ecological development plan under extremely difficult circumstances & with very few resources, despite having no real reason why they have to do so. They’re doing it because they want to

I think you’re jumping to some conclusion here based on a single interview. The communes already exist, he’s referring to new internal committees. You can’t dismiss the forestry initiative without knowing the details. And he’s not talking about cloud seeding, he’s talking about forest hydrology

Just catching up on this Maduro guy. Look at this tyrannical insanity!

If you want some background on one of the most exciting and important democratic initiatives in the world—the communes of Venezuela—and Maduro’s role in supporting them, here’s a very good and thorough new piece on the subject www.counterpunch.org/2026/01/03/v...

Happy New Year, everyone!

Make it a year of joy, meaning, & regeneration. Eschew optimization, competitiveness, & individualism

Spend your year perpetuating life, it’s the most beautiful and unlikely phenomenon to ever exist
