I am huge on justice, fairness & equity for all.
I include non-human living entities in this personal statement.

We are all nothing, without the irreplaceable ecosystems that keep us all alive.

We are not the most important creatures on Earth.

We are the most foolish & most selfish creatures on Earth.

No other living being works so hard at destroying their only viable living habitats.

I'm an anarcho-socialist.
Democracy sounds great on paper. I haven't seen/been part of any true democracy in my entire life. I've been part of pseudo democracy for most of my life - where at least one(or more) of the essential pillars of democracy were destroyed. I've never been able to participate in true democracy because it's impossible with our current 2-party-swinging-same-colonial-doors farce-full election systems. Many folks scream to protect democracy that wasn't actually ever existent.

We had frost last night, luckily it was in the forecast so we covered all the frost-sensitive crops and everything came through just fine! We've had frost on 50% of the Summer Solstices we've had here. Saskatchewan, man.

Another view of a slightly different part of the same field. Mostly bare dirt with one row covered by cloth.

We scored these two #tricycles for my baby nephew at a nearby garage sale this morning - $10 for both of them. Raven can't pedal yet but he's very excited to learn. I told my brother, Steve, to take blue/green trike home & we keep the red/purple pusher one here for when Raven visits.

Made a couple more #floral #decoupaged #ArtRocks & placed them at the base of one of my #ficus #ginseng #plants. There are 2 miniature glass #Mastodon figurines in the pot too.

I have 4 ficus ginseng aka #Chinese #banyan plants. I propagated 3 extra plants from one strong mother plant. I bring them inside for Fall-Winter. They stay outdoors from May-October - depending on weather/temperature.

The first of my royal purple & golden sweet #SnowPeas have emerged. I grow the more commonly known green Oregon snow peas too. I love eating #peas - fresh n raw from the garden or cooked.

Just a little reminder that here in Europe, we play the same exact video games as youth from the United States

We do not have (daily) school shootings however

Instead of blaming video games, start looking at the super easy to get weapons on each corner of street problem

Games are not the problem, weapons are 🇺🇸
