Every year I let the tomatoes that sprout in our worm farm grow and it allows us to have a lot of free tomatoes.

What is amazing about those, is that the plants are extremely strong, very disease and pest-resistant.

Tomato is an incredible plant that grows well in the #compost.

Being human gives us the right to pursue happiness.

When anti #LGBTQIA complains about us, what they do not realize is that they deny other humans the fundamental right to pursue happiness.

If happiness for others is optional, you are not a good person. Period and you are extremely unwelcome here.

The Aerobic Digest 13 is out!

In this issue of my #composting newsletter, a big move of the heaps into the shade begins, and a curious piece of plastic is found.

Those who say protestors are "out of line" for occupying buildings and other violations of "the law" seem to forget that the Civil Rights Act would not have happened if civil rights leaders and all those crying out for racial justice had obliged every law on the books regarding property rights, trespassing, etc. Remember, the law is not always just. It's why people feel compelled to protest in the first place.

Wearing a mask is resistance.

The lawmakers of NC keep doing the same thing over and over and expect different results. That was Eisntein's definition of insanity.

I'm returning to sfba.social after some time away. You might know me from another server. I'll be gradually bringing man of my follows over to this account where I plan to be most active. Intro toot coming soon. 🌺

Still can't get over the fact that lawmakers in NC decided that wearing a mask was a crime.

The worst thing is that they are having a hard time justifying it, and no one who is not crazy is like oh what a great idea.

If I do not talk about where I live it is because this place has nothing great for it, and the rare people that are somehow decent here do not come from here.

Yes, I am outraged that despite having allergies that require me to wear a mask I do not have the freedom to look after myself.

How much #soil (your local mixture of minerals like #loam) would you accept in your #compost and why?

Here is an interesting read saying that when people had to stay at home there were more crimes at home and fewer crimes in the streets.

When people had to wear a mandatory mask, it did not make them want to commit crimes.

Oops busted

The state I live in (South of the US) is pushing a law to ban the mask in public for "health reasons".

This spring I have been so miserable because of the allergies that by necessity I decided to wear a #mask outside again despite taking strong medicine that won't allow me to be safe outside.

There is also a deadly pandemic going on but who cares I guess.

If I wear a mask that is to protect my health and also others.

I have no name to describe how messed up this is.

This neat little article tells you to keep your compost pile well-balanced.

This is why it is important to have a separate pile of brown or carbon materials to keep your compost healthy.

If we do not change our behaviors we are doomed.

One of the best tools we have to fight the #ClimateChange is composting.

Also, quit voting for people who do not care about the #Climate, they are not going to fix anything for you when you will be in need.

How is your local weather affecting your #gardening season for this year?

Tell us in the comments how it affects you.

Never let a right winger tell you that during a pandemic you're " living in fear" these bloody people are afraid of kids books, their own invisible friends, the sex lives of people they've never met, being able to woo an actual adult, free elections, video games, low budget horror movies, beans, anti-genocide protests, black people stood anywhere except prison or africa, being photographed by anything that doesn't serve oligarchy, and being in small reliable cars.

Here it has rained for an entire night and day. The volume of rainwater is a lot more than normal. I will never stop to be amazed by the power of compost. The areas in the garden that have received compost are not flooded.

Everywhere else is very flooded because the compacted native red clay soil can not handle that much water. To better fight flooding events, we have to start spraying compost on the at-risk areas.

This is why at-home composting and local programs are a necessity if we want to protect the land and our goods.

We really need to bring more micro farms to the food chain.

If we put all of our eggs in the same basket of conventional agriculture, when a crisis like this one happens and we have no alternative solution that is a problem.

This is why we advocate all year long to encourage people to grow food if they can do that so that we can have as many alternatives as we can to sustain the food production.

We despise fascism. It's foundation is deception and there is nothing great with that.

Most of the right wing movement prefer to neglect the #climate for the sake of the economy and will not fix anything about this crisis for you.

Because they don't care for you and prefer to lie about it.

Needless to say that fascists are very unwelcome here.

I have never taken a stand on the question of the Middle East and I don't know why I should.

My problem with this conflict is simple, both Palestine and Israel are trashing the Holy Land by not working for peace. That to me is despicable.

Now if you are from both of these states and you want to join your efforts together to compost and make this special land a better place you have my blessing and you are very welcome here.

The reason why we would love to see more accounts talk about composting on the #fediverse is simple.

You will be able to focus on your area and explain to local people what they can compost and where they can get their organic matter.

You can create a local community that will help your local area make a better place.

If we started this account it is for a main reason. Make people understand that by choosing to compost they can have a positive impact and do something about the #ClimateChange.

So creating a multitude of local accounts that will allow people to organize and make their area a better place is a very powerful thing to do for the #climate.
