WaPo Editorial: US cut aid to Africa. The continent proved resilient.

The @washingtonpost.com describes the deaths of an estimated 750,000 people to date as "messy"

How oh how do you deal with lesser celendine?? I've tried pulling, weed whacking, and daily application of glyphosate the first day they come up in late Feb. They're back stronger every damn year.

Biggest thing is overnight care if your loved one needs to be checked on. If they say they stop every 2 hours, confirm with your loved one that they did, especially if mobility is an issue. Food? Hospice on site? Nurse/Dr on site? 24h? Will you have 24h visiting?

Small typo: "As as result, the administration can change"

Not trying to bust balls, just trying to help. Keep up the good work

I moved my default time to 8am but thank you, same to you!

$55k to break down how much she sucks to her face over the course of a dinner 🤔 "If I had a million dollars 🎶"

On a real note, I loved your edit this month! Good zinger preamble, a little longer edit, more "behind the scenes" ("it's a bonus episode, whatever" lol). Great job!

It remains to be seen how the Venezuelan people will respond to a more overt CIA presence in the country post-Maduro. For years, Maduro cast the CIA as a convenient boogey man, repeatedly accusing the agency – without evidence – of attempting to topple his regime as he clung to power despite US opposition. Now, the CIA has helped supplant Maduro and is poised to help actively manage the Trump administration’s dealings with Venezuela’s new leadership.

Absolutely incredible sequence from CNN.

"Maduro was a paranoid lunatic always lying about the CIA trying to overthrow him. Anyways, now that the CIA has overthrown him..."

I've read both articles; both are great reads. Where are the actual raw data of logs and scripts sent to you? I don't see them linked and it would be useful to comb through.

@ashleystclair.bsky.social just heard you on Matt's podcast and wanted to send you love and wish you all the best. Be well.

Their employers? I thought they were paid protestors lol

Small typo in the first sentence January 7 not June 7. Not trying to be pedantic just trying to help. Good article.

Awesome! I'll keep an eye out, thanks!

Awesome work! Any chance you can share the poster(s) so I can do something similar in the suburbs?

Have they found yours? I haven't seen any yet but I've only had it for one season

Oh no I don't care for grapefruit. Hopefully the zebra swallowtails enjoy it though!

This is my big fear: I'm 4 years out from getting fruit on my tree and I'm hoping I actually like them! I read it's a mix of mango and banana

My favorite response to these types of reactions is linking this: www.columnblog.com/p/the-tyranny-of-the-not...

Those rudbeckias are workhorses

Going through something similar. I went with pussytoes, Carolina catchfly, butterfly weed, and good old golden ragwort

"she's not poor, so she doesn't care about the people." Is this your argument?

This interview mentioned small donors but not where they can donate! What's the spot?

Just signed up. Good luck and thanks for everything you do.

Have you noticed if you get them early enough in the season that the populations don't explode later? Or does that not matter? I've been vigilant but they get horrible once the mallows bloom, which is imminent

I've read that milky spore is good for this, though it's too late for this season. I've picked some up but haven't yet tried it. I have the same issue with my swamp rose mallow 😢

I doubt he has it in him. Typically, his word is not his bond, but I hope he proves me wrong.

Is your gate solid? I read that deer won't jump where they can't see but don't know for sure.

But how to stop them? Too late for milky spore?
