So Bokashi first, since I’m aware that this is basically a Bokashi blog now. So the first bin is most of the way through it’s two week fermentation. It’s producing less and less of the vicious orange slurry that you can apparently use to keep drains clear. We have been tipping it down the drain,…

…awful, and exactly what I thought would happen when that repulsive orange molerat started spreading hatred. Fucking awful things that have happened in Kansas.

Kathryn pointed out the inherent falsehood in the phrase “I am so entirely done with this” Which we both often proclaim, just before we go on to deal more with whatever is causing the doneness.

Trial Ballon for a coup … *now* I’m scared.

…you could try White House Inc. via Teen Vogue. This is a terrible time – but if this vile human is going to try and destroy us all, the least we can do is make his life difficult.

You may want to call the startled dugongs currently in the senate. Apparently Trump’s clusterfuck of woman-hatred wasn’t enough. They’ve introduced Senate Bill 5320 which… [Drum roll please] – Imposes a parental notification requirement on minors seeking an abortion (with exceptions for medical emergencies) – Effectively requires a 48-hour waiting period for minors seeking an…
