I ran across this saying on my witch site...it struck me & I thought I would give it a try.
"Someday you will tell your story of how you overcame what you went through, and it will become someone else's survival guide." Brene Brown
My first memory was when I was 2. It was the house we lived in that was very creepy even to my young mind. I remember talking to beings that no one else...
2023 Garden Update 2

July 9, 2023
Well, it looks like this year's garden is shaping up to be a showcase of things that can go wrong. So far, anyway.
It was a dry spring, which is almost unheard of in my region.
A lot of things weren't growing properly in the beginning, and took forever to get going.
The corn came up a little spotty and has been growing unevenly.
And now... Bugocalypse 2023!
This was June...

I'm sorry that it's been almost a month, but everything other than the tomatoes and potatoes are growing slower than normal this year, and I didn't really want to post an update when nothing much had changed. There's finally enough to look at now, though.
The potatoes have been going gangbusters.
The reds are flowering here and there.
Kohlrabi and beets are just...

Are the citizens eager to help arrest the madmen shooting up their streets? Thankful police show up to to protect them?
Nope.
They confront the police wielding 2x4s.

2023 – Another Year, Another Garden
By: Dig • Gardening • 167 comments • 2 years ago
I don't know how often I'll be able to post updates, which are pic-heavy and time consuming, but I thought I'd try to blog another garden this summer.
Quick reminder: I don't claim to be an expert, and I'm not trying to grow heaps of stuff to fill a root cellar or anything. This is just a hobby for enjoyment and exercise – and a few fresh veggies, of course.
And we're off...
Here's how...
Live Comments - The Coronation of King Charles III of England - May 6th, 2023

What a lot of pomp and circumstance. Charles, age 74, waited in the wings patiently for this...
But, is this really relevant in the modern world?

Biden is doing it. Making America Proud Again!
The Bad Shopper
By: Ender • Advice • 206 comments • 2 years ago
Those that know me know I like to complain. I have a tendency to burden people with my problems. Sorry about that.
For some reason I cannot stop myself though. Maybe I am just selfish that way. So I am going to burden you all with my problems again. I have another one.
All of my underwear seems to be bad. I put on a pair today and the elastic was shot. Pulled them up and nothing. Just about...
Will Biden Apoligize?
By: Sean Treacy • Op-Ed • 10 comments • 2 years ago
Joe Biden, in one of the more histrionic and disgraceful speeches in recent American history called the Georgia election law "Jim Crow 2.0" in an obvious attempt to keep his base angry and tilting at windmills. Corporations, always willing to toe the progressive line, pitched in, with the moving of the MLB All-Star Game the capstone achievement of a movement based on nothing but the fear...
Let Your Freak Flag Fly
By: Ender • Talk and Dialogue • 52 comments • 2 years ago
Every time I read the news there is always an article about some kind of anti LGBT activism going on.
I have yet to understand the almost complete hatred some have surrounding anything that has to do with sexual orientation.
To be honest, I fail to see how someone's sexuality is political at all. We have people's very lives being used as an agenda to attack some perceived mortal sin that...
