If you don’t feel like celebrating America today, celebrate Peach, who was born on the farm on this day in 2017. Her full name is Impeachment.

Extremely local post! If you're on the east side of #PDX and interested in farm fresh eggs delivered to your door every two weeks, message me. Our farm has a couple slots open for egg delivery. They are, without a doubt, the best eggs you can get anywhere, from the happiest chickens.

(This is kind of a test to see if Masto works for local posing.)

Our Spring Sale is still going! Get yourself something nice. https://milkbarn.farm

@jeridansky I understand, but that just means all the users have to play the "is this AI or not" game.

This should be the policy for posting as well.

Sometimes I post here to remind myself why I don't post here anymore.

One of the perks of running my own business is having no one to tell me not to send a marketing email with the subject line "First of all, fuck ICE."

Here's the latest Milk Barn Farm email to our customers. I'm proud of it.

And, yeah, 20% off with the code: ICEOUT

We may have to stop selling our CBD products in November because Republicans and the booze lobby snuck a hemp ban into the law last year.

So let's have some fun until then.

Just fucking delete your Instagram account already. They're an evil company and they're only gonna get more evil.

Running a community has never been easy, and even when you find someone who is good at it, it takes a toll.

Nobody can do it alone, and nobody can do it forever.

I remember a moment, years ago. Jack Dorsey was still running Twitter and involved in yet another scandal about whether nazi shit was gonna be tolerated there, and he was equivocating and bullshitting about free speech or somesuch.

And around the same time, someone else dropped some justification for tolerating nazi shit to Eugen, and he just said something along the lines of: no, we don't do that here.

Eugen earned my respect that day.

Mad respect for Eugen. Imagine a world where the CEOs of social media platforms regularly stepped aside when they realized they weren't cut out for the job.

Bring back Gen X’s overwhelming fear of being a sellout. We were right about that.

Anyway, the Riyadh Comedy Festival gave us one gift: a list of comedians to never support again.

The mainstream media is praising Kirk as an exemplar of free speech and open debate. Meanwhile his disciples are collecting examples of people who weren't properly deferential to his death and doxxing them in order to get them fired. Free speech and open debate ... right?

You are under no obligation to mourn the death of people who would’ve celebrated yours.

This is good and has what I wanted out of a quote feature all along, a global opt-out and specific quote detaching. Well done!

Kind of amazing that the best Star Wars since the original trilogy, and the best mainstream antifascist media in years, is a prequel to a prequel to a movie from 1977.

If his daughter can maintain this attitude about Elon, so can you.

“He's a pathetic man-child. Why would I feel scared of him? Ohhh, he has so much power. Nah, nah, nah. I don't give a f**k. Why should I be scared of this man? Because he's rich? Oh, no, I'm trembling. Ooh, shivering in my boots here. I don't give a f**k how much money anyone has. I don't. I really don't. He owns Twitter. Okay. Congratulations.”

Somewhere there's a ketamine dealer who could end this madness with one bad batch.
