I have a small farm supply in my area that makes their own feed and stocks a huge variety of brands. Their house feed is cheaper than TSC and my girls love it.
I only found out about it because I picked up a bunch of pallets to build a coop off of a guy who also raised chickens and we got to talking.
Rural general stores may as well.
I actually just googled “farm stores near me” and found 2 others that are still closed than either of my TSCs.
I don’t think large-scale farmers are shopping at Tractor Supply. Outside of emergency situations.
However, rural homesteaders suburban “backyard farms” certainly do. And there’s a lot of queer and allied gardeners and backyard farmers.
Da da da dat da dat da da da ya da
Da da dat da da ya da!
How come I don’t see any high-speed balloon chases then?
But my BIL had to get a license to fly his drone and needs to get approval from the FAA to go over like 100ft at my MILs house because it’s “so close” (like 3 miles in a straight line) to the airport.
The media itself is a fucking mess.
Take this, for example:
So a self-affirmed victim sends an email to a magazine. That email becomes a point of fact even though people involved either never confirmed it or straight up said it never happened.
This happens constantly. “News” is getting reported before or without confirmation. Shoot first, ask questions later, maybe put a blurb at the bottom a couple weeks later when nobody will read it correcting everything that was wrong.
Obviously the Clinton’s wouldn’t confirm it, but they’ve long since learned not to deny it either. Denying is nearly as bad as confirming, since it gives even a little more credibility to the claims, just by acknowledging its existence. Especially in this current political climate, commenting at all has nothing to gain and everything to lose.
Highly recommend the book “Trust me, I’m Lying”. News consumers have to do their due diligence now and actually judge the sources of the news itself, even for sources previously thought to be reputable. The court of public opinion is all that matters, and it’s judged by old and new media alike. Spez and Musk and Zuck are all as powerful as Murdoch, and they’re the Supreme Court of Public Opinion.
And then you have shit like the Internet Research Agency flooding the docket.
Current court might decide it’s a requirement. Look at Jefferson.
Although they might decide that it’s not rape if it’s a slave. Which might make 13th amendment interpretations interesting.
I thought the mid 30s nervous breakdown was just the next big adult milestone…drive, vote, buy tobacco, gamble, buy alcohol, rent a car, get married, buy a house, have a kid, have a nervous breakdown, get a colonoscopy, and then just wait for the clutches of death.
“Roe was legislating from the bench!”
…goes on to carve unlimited executive power out of thin air…
Dude have you seen an American public education?
America is the hero throughout all of history class.
It’s the idea of the frog in the boiling water.
The water is already 208 degrees man. This country is the montage in the opening scenes of a dystopian film as it is.
Crumbling infrastructure. Natural disasters. Civil unrest. Disease. Tense international relations. Food costs escalating, and only to get worse due to changing climate.
Except in the experiment that coined the phrase, the frogs jumped out. We ain’t jumping. We’re acting more like crabs in a bucket.
I wouldn’t be surprised if half the reason we don’t have higher-ed reform is because of that. If college were free or even affordable, nearly nobody would go to the military.
Hell part of why we got so entrenched in Vietnam was because our economy couldn’t find room for all the grownup boomer kids. So just institute a draft and send them off to the jungle to die instead.
That’s cool and all…but hydrogen isn’t an energy source, not the way we use it…it’s more like a battery. And we have battery powered ovens now.
The hard part of current tech is making recharging the battery economical given that there will be a significant loss.
The even harder part of hydrogen, though, is storing and transport. Hydrogen atoms are real small. Anything you put it in will leak, and that impacts the recharge efficiency, as well.
There will no doubt be a line of the wealthiest people selling their sole for a profit.
I don’t think this is what was implied when we said to “eat the rich”, though. Or “bootlicker” and “ass kisser”.
I’m not saying it’s not necessary. It is.
Modern Dems don’t shoot first. Something extreme has to happen but executing sitting justices is probably plan C or D. They are no doubt going to try to win and be right (as far as playing by the old rules will allow) first, and if they even try to toe the line of the dark side, it will be a Hail Mary at the last minute. Likely in the buyers remorse/lame duck period.
Edit: Dems see it as the nuclear option that it is. Republicans see it as a bubble-hearth with no cooldown.
Xiaomi is such a hidden gem. I just got a new wifi6 router off AliExpress for like $50 and threw openwrt on it in like 5 minutes.
Not if you protect the master key with MFA, like a yubikey. Then it’s cryptographically secure for quite a while…at least until quantum computing is affordable enough to be used against your data. Or the database and your yubikey and yourbpassphrase are compromised
Because we know he won’t. He knows he’s unwelcome by the majority of the people. That just makes his worshippers praise him even more.
What do you expect…Democrats ask him to step down because he’s a convicted felon? He’s gonna listen?
Republicans to have him step down…why? Because he said lies(that they believe) and sounded good saying them?
Biden we at least know is receptive. And he’s got an amazing career behind him. Losing the presidency, as an incumbent, to Trump (the incumbent he just barely defeated four years ago when he exuded much more confidence when he spoke against him) would be a terrible way to end it.
There’s nothing in the world more powerful than a good story.
I don’t understand why we feel so entitled to primaries. We don’t get to choose who runs in the primaries. It’s really more like an opinion poll and the party decides whether or not to listen to the opinion. AlwaysHasBeen.jpg.
If Biden executes six supreme justices, he’s the fascist.
Fascism is already here. It officially arrived last week in a little box labeled “Pandora” and now it’s just a question of who will open it.
Not discounting small farms at all. Honestly thought anyone on more than a few acres wouldn’t shop at TSC unless they had to. But I’ll admit I don’t know a lot about that life.
Not surprised there are vastly more small farms than large farms, but what does it look like in terms of acres?
As bad as it sounds (in response to the “more than you might think, apparently”), it’s not as if the stereotypes have much overlap.
