also can't stop thinking about his use of the phrase 'shelf life' like lewis is some commodified product he could sell, put a price on and dispose off when no longer needed like...it is disrespectful if not downright cruel to refer to someone like that let alone your own fucking driver who is still driving your fuck ass tractor showing up and not saying one bad word against you

Hey, how aware is the general American public that Congress is currently shitting the bed on passing a one-year extension of the Farm Bill (no surprise, but they're fighting over the same thing they've been fighting over for the last 18 months) and if they don't pass a one-year extension by the end of the year, some programs will expire, including programs that affect the price of food. Like, for example, the milk commodity program, without which the cost of most dairy products would double. Prices for corn, wheat, and other staples would also increase, and some programs that focus on getting food out to low income folks would also be affected, like the program that connects farmers with food banks.

Like, in theory, law makers have every incentive not to let the Farm Bill expire, but we all know these jackals don't actually give a shit about us or our well-being. The word today is that they have reached a tentative agreement to pass a one-year extension, but that's not the first time they've made that announcement. It's just wild to me that the cost of food has, rightly, been so prominent in recent months, but there has been pretty much no discussion in the mainstream that I've seen about how close Congress is getting to letting the Farm Bill expiring which would almost immediately cause the price of at least some foods to sky rocket. And look, right now, I do still doubt that they're going to let the Farm Bill expire (not because it would be bad for the public, but because it would be bad for the ag industry), they're letting it get really fucking close, and I'm not sure that the general public is even remotely aware that they're currently 3-4 weeks away from seeing $10 gallons of milk if Congress doesn't act.

Me reading the last olympian in sixth grade : Annabeth took the poisoned knife for Percy and he says the "no one touches her" line. I'm crying.

Me reading the same scene nearly six years later: Annabeth took the poisoned knife for Percy and he said the "no one touches her" line. I'm still crying.

nice paper!!! have you ordered any other cool stationery recently, or is there anything that's catching your eye? i have a whiteboard book, notebooks, and paper coming in soon!

yay paper! i did just recently get a new natsumehandmade book cover for my sketchbook (midori a6) to match the one i already had for my journal (stalogy365 a6) and im super happy with it!!

these are my favourite book covers as they're cheaper and roomier than hobonichi book covers while being just as pretty! they also have a TON of pattern options on every shop listing!! if i was the type id buy like a bunch more, but having any that sit around empty waiting for a turn or just hold an old book to go on a shelf feels too sad to me. these things are precious and gotta see use! it took me so long to choose which pattern i wanted both times cus of that XD

the stickers on my journal cover are all from i_spy_cy ^u^

I wish cats were like dogs where you could take them to a cat park or kitty daycare or on a playdate and let them run around with other hyper energetic kittens for several hours and then you bring them back home and they're so played out that they're just chill the rest of the day. Astrid is in her preteen phase now and she has the most violent destructive zoomies of any cat I've ever seen. Our older male cat can't keep up with her when she really wants to play and neither can we. I just played with her until she flopped from exhaustion TWICE a few hours ago and she's already jetting around at near light speed knocking shit off every horizontal surface and doing kickflips off of us with her claws out again
