Reminder - if you keep emergency supplies such as emergency rations and potable water, make sure to check your food's expiration date and replace the water regularly.

happy "Elvis is Still Dead Day" to all those who celebrate it.

remember when Elvis sightings were a thing, and fat, weirdly-pompadoured, be-jumpsuited Elvis became sort of a shorthand talisman for the kind of uneasy but vaguely optimistic, post-hippie, pre-millennium/pre-internet fascination with fortean events, UFO's and the supernatural? adjacent from actual cult lore, only mildly overlapping with Fake Real Cults like the Subgenii, often appearing in pop culture imagery before fully metastatizing in its most well-known host, The X Files.

Rotund, Spangled, Perpetually-Young-and-frequently-abducted-by-aliens Elvis was a symbol unto itself that meant a lot of things, and people just stopped using it after the turn of the century. last time i heard anyone mention Elvis in this capacity was in the first "Men In Black" movie ("Elvis is *not* dead, he just went home"). the culture has moved on from this now quaint period of low weirdness that lasted from the mid-80's to the mid-to-late 90's.

if you ever want to read a book that perfectly encapsulates this time period, seek out the book "Buddy Holly is Alive And Well On Ganymede" by Bradley Denton; which was going to be made into a movie starring Jon Heder but never came together.

the Internet is not a library. it is just computers screaming forever and hoping to be seen. the Internet is ephemeral oral tradition performed by machines. the Internet is a verb stuffed into a poorly-fitting “noun” suit

Back in my day, it was called Medical Intern Pepper

Preach it.

Anyone who is against gender affirming care for trans kids has never talked with a trans kid.

The sheer volume of tomatoes coming out of this planter is insane. It's 2x0.5 metres in size and the only preparation I did to the soil inside was to bury all of the food waste we produced for a few weeks last Christmas (I didn't have a compost bin at the time). It's difficult to count, but it looks like the whole planter contains upward of 1,000, maybe even 2-3,000 tomatoes.

If you have any space, even just a small windowsill: grow things! #gardening

These, and 30+ of their buddies, are working hard on my 30+ sunflowers. #bees #pollinators #Gardening
