I think the Senator is correct on this. As I said on the show today, I think Jackson’s dissents have the vibe of Blackmun throwing up his hands and saying “I will no longer tinker with the machinery of death,” because it’s a moral and intellectual charade. RE: bsky.app/profile/did:plc:qqixz…

This one Florida crew I was on had a rotating cast of 19yo weed & Xbox kids who'd been caught on minor drug charges.
They were harmless. And also, clumsy af. Big kids who had no idea where their feet were. They kept stepping on the blueberry transplants we'd just planted.
Another crew was a bunch of minors who were working as "community service" for juvie.
They all smoked, bc juvie. Tobacco is packed with plant viruses that are super contagious; can be spread just by touch. So "don't smoke in the fields" is a key farm rule.
@rysiek Yes, thank you for this thread & for kicking off such a great discussion on the basics of what it takes to do agricultural work well. 🙂
Points to a wider issue: complete divorce & chasm between real world & wherever it is Thump & his billionaire backers live. Similar to the growing gap between real value (things in the real world) & share market 'value'. 😐
I think EVERYONE should have to detassel corn for a DAY. As farm work goes, its probably the easiest, and to learn, but its still hard work - the (seed) corn is only 1-2 ft tall so bending; your hands get shredded; you're in the middle of a massive flat corn field in 30C+ weather in the sun.
I did corn for six summers; its seasonal, pays pretty good but I could not imagine doing tobacco, any field produce, berries - absolute nightmare food. Back hurts just thinking.
I'd rather be executed than do detasseling again. Not only did it suck with the sweltering heat and humidity that makes you feel like you can't breathe (corn sweat!), but the constant cuts from corn leaves.... and I was highly allergic and my face swelled up like a balloon and I could barely see
As a kid that grew up on a farm this needs to be said louder. AG labor not only takes real skills and knowledge but also a dedication to work long hours when the weather is right for planting/harvesting and the endurance to do it. It also can be a job with zero days off. Ask the average dairy farmer what the weekend or a vacation is and they'll look at you cross-eyed.
If we want a 100% US AG Workforce than let's create a path to citizenship for the people that want to do the work. The immigrant harvesting the fields or working a meat packing plant is not a threat to our nation but not having them is.
And while we're at it let's break up the big AG monopolies so that small family farms and small AG businesses can compete.
A few years ago there was a story about vineyard owners who couldn't find workers, because there was no affordable housing near the fields and people in nearby cities couldn't afford cars to commute to the vinyards on the wages offered. But yeah, people just don't want to work these days 🤦🏽♀️
@JosephMeyer Unfortunately I think there are plenty of people who will see footage of food rotting in the fields and say it's because the poors are lazy & only want handouts.
@rejinl This week I heard a piece on our local NPR station where a potato farmer was interviewed; he said he can't get local workers at $17/hr.
Of course, that's just a seasonal job doing heavy physical labor outdoors in the heat, and the housing and transportation issues are real barriers. And I think his is a small farm, so not necessarily representative of the big ag operations.
Indeed, "people don't want to work" doesn't seem like a satisfactory explanation.
@rejinl We turned a bunch of the best near-urban farmland in the world into suburbs, kicked the farms out so far that few people can commute there, and now complain that there aren’t enough farmworkers.
A planned economy would have easily avoided this. The free market has now rendered a lot of the best farmland in the world unusable for growing crops, to build housing, and also nobody likes living in suburbs and we still have a housing crisis.
@alienghic @ufwupdates The part of this that you are missing is that there is no such thing as "able-bodied people on Medicaid" who aren't employed.
That's federal law, since the Clinton Administration, over 30 years ago. ABAWDs (able-bodied adults aged 18-64 without dependents) do *not* qualify for Medicaid, at all, unless they are employed, period.
Only children, disabled people, people with dependents who are full-time caregivers, and the elderly get a free pass.
@gcvsa @alienghic @ufwupdates Thank you! I did say this in another thread about this topic. My stepbrother is 50+ years old, has cerebral palsy, can't speak well and is blind. Yes his care requires Medicaid. But sure they can have him out there harvesting crops 🙄
@Star12Mt @alienghic @ufwupdates I know all this, because I have been an ABAWD on Medicaid, and the restrictions only get lifted under particular economic downturn conditions, and even then, only when the Governor of a state requests the waiver, which they don't always do.
ABAWDs do not get public assistance without employment. Period.
Most recently, waivers were granted during the early years of the COVID-19 pandemic, but all those have since expired.
@gcvsa I remember being in my teens and learning someone I knew was on Medicaid, disability, and also worked odd jobs (which they very bluntly told me was less pay than a normal job, but a normal job would report their pay and then they would lose their benefits, and they needed medicaid). I was amazed, because I didn't realize how little disability paid - that people are basically forced to game the system just to make rent, basically. Even back then, $300/mo total wasn't enough.
@alienghic This doesn't even begin to address the fact that even if these putative 34 million people existed, most of them almost certainly do not exist in places where they can be employed as farm labor, because they are mostly not in locations that are suitable for modern agriculture.
We can dispense with the notion that this fascist regime is suddenly going to start providing public housing in farming communities for farm laborers.
Everything she's saying is an obviously blatant lie.
@gcvsa @alienghic to me this clearly states that the administration wants to gather up people on Medicaid into on-site forced work camps (not that would be able to do this physically taxing and skilled work). Sounds familiar somehow...
Plus, that work is hugely physically demanding. (Duh, right?) Sometimes meaning plain strength, always meaning enormous levels of stamina and endurance. Without practice, you're toast. It's like going up against a rowing athlete when all you've done is puddle about on the lake a few Sundays.
Just one example, watching the cabbage harvest. Heft an ordinary white cabbage. About 3-4 lbs? The pickers would run, _run_, with carefully packed flats holding 12 heads, drop that off at the central collection tractor, and run back to continue picking.
They'd do that, starting at 5 or 6 in the morning, one early 15 min break, lunch 30 min or an hour, one later 15 min break, and then home after 8 solid hours of work around 3pm. (And then my neighbor would get the kids sorted out, cook dinner, and deal with errands. She was probably typical in having two actual jobs.)
And politicians think they can get disabled Medicaid people or prison labor to work to that level?
riiight - let's take arguably the hardest manual-labour jobs there are and push the most fragile members of the population into those roles. Many of whom have already been excluded from even sedate air-conditioned office jobs due to health problems. Implausible and potential performative cruelty.
@JessTheUnstill @JosephMeyer Can't help but think that's the ultimate goal. Especially since I read yesterday that ICE (or DHS?) claim no responsibility for the prisoners in Florida's new death camp, & I imagine Desantis doesn't (yet) have authorization to deport people. So what is the plan for those detainees?
@GhostOnTheHalfShell @Su_G It’ll end up being like a game of Kerplunk: one by one they peel off every class, creed and faith until the whole house of cards collapses [to mix my metaphors].

"Public facing." TLS. Times Literary Supplement, June 6th, 2025.
The image depicts the exterior of a bookstore named "Hatchards," which is situated on a city street. The building has a classic architectural style with a dark green facade and large windows displaying various books. Above the entrance, there is a prominent coat of arms and the name "Hatchards" in gold lettering. The windows are filled with colorful book covers, suggesting a wide selection of literature. The entrance is open, and a few people are visible in front of the store, including a man in a suit looking at his phone, a woman with a shopping bag, and an older man in a beige jacket and cap. The street is paved with light-colored stones, and the overall atmosphere is that of a busy urban environment.

The image features a man with curly hair and glasses, wearing a dark blue blazer over a white shirt. He is seated with his hands clasped together in front of him. The background is a blurred blue, suggesting a studio setting. In the top left corner, there is a logo with the text "HVMAN."

The overall composition suggests a professional or intellectual context, likely related to a television program or discussion panel.

Learning to solder can help you fix your stuff and take on new DIY projects, but it can seem a little scary. Here are five tips to help stay safe around that hot stick! 🧵 — #iFixit #Repair #Soldering
Soldering can create fumes, mostly from flux. Work in a well-ventilated area and use a fume extractor. If you don't have a fume extractor, you can make your own!
Always wear safety glasses when soldering. You don't want a hot glob of solder in your eyes! Also tie back long hair and make sure loose clothing is out of the way.
Reminds me that I still don't know what I messed up that caused the last soldering iron I touched to stop working completely. When I turned it on it would get hot, but could not melt solder anymore. My best guess: I forgot to clean the tip?
@qgustavor Could be! The tip will oxidize over time, especially if it isn't maintained. Here's our guide on cleaning and tinning the tip, which should extend the life of your next one: ifixit.com/Guide/How+to+Clean+…
I always were my normal glasses, so I wouldn't know - but is this really an issue? I've like in 50 years never had a solder-splatter towards my face...
@thor Yes. While I don't think the actual solder is gonna splatter, the flux definitely will.. It happens to me from time to time. I guess normal glasses make you 99% safe. I also wear them so i've never had any issue. @iFixit
@nekayee nooo... I've not have flux splattering or spluttering in that manner either. Neither the flux infused solder nor the massive amounts of flux I use when using the hot air or the tweezer soldering iron. 🤷♂️
Could it be dirt reacting with the flux? I tend to clean the circuits before working on them..
@thor It only happens when i feed large amounts of my leaded solder into my iron. So it all depends. But i definitely recommend wearing any glasses. Eyes are not as easily fixed as electronic circuits 😀 @iFixit
@nekayee @thor Flux splatters more violently when the iron is too hot, which might be why it only happens to you when using leaded solder. When you solder next, see if you notice splatters of flux on your work surface. It tends to happen normally, though to a lesser extent.
"We do not understand a way of thinking that would spend hundreds of millions on Elwha River restoration but continue to industrially log in that same watershed. We do not understand a way of thinking that takes too much and says it is never enough; that would disrespect a River that gives us so much life and now hope.
Our ancestral knowledge and sacred obligation to the natural world teaches us a different path. We have inherent and treaty protected rights in these lands as our usual and accustomed gathering areas. Together, we call for the protection of the Elwha Watershed as a commitment to our mutual future and to the wellbeing of all who depend upon it. We ask you to stop these planned timber sales and heed our call to be guided by principles of respect and reciprocity in caring for the watershed."
After years of dominance in #ESET’s top #infostealer statistics, the era of #AgentTesla has come to an end. It finished H1 2025 in fourth place, its numbers having decreased by 57%. The reason? It is no longer under active development. The threat actors behind Agent Tesla have reportedly lost access to the servers with the malware’s source code. A successor appeared almost immediately – another #MaaS threat, known as #SnakeStealer or #SnakeKeylogger, has claimed the number one spot. Recommended as a suitable replacement directly in Agent Tesla’s Telegram channel, SnakeStealer now takes up almost a fifth of all infostealer detections registered by ESET telemetry. Between H2 2024 and H1 2025, its detections more than doubled. If you want to find out more information about this changing of the guard in the infostealer threat landscape, head on over to #ESETThreatReport: welivesecurity.com/en/eset-res…

I saw several red-wings at my first bird watching experience near my home in Tennessee. And last week I was visiting my parents in Colorado, and was surprised to see them there, too. The only difference between them regionally was that the TN birds had the red covered more by their wings until they flew, and the CO birds had their red more exposed when not in flight. Pretty neat to see the subtle differences.

Paahteinen päivä toi hyönteisiä esiin ihan kivasti. Parilta koivupökkelöltä löytyi mantuloiskimalainen, vyökiiltoyökkönen, kolokultiainen ja hoikkasäiläpistiäinen. Kaksi viimeistä on tosi pökkelöuskollisia, aina samalla rungolla.
Trans Kids Deserve Better are running a workshop on direct action for young people at this years Climate Camp Scotland.
There will be chats about protest rights, direct action and some zine making. This is a great workshop for young queer people in Scotland looking for ways to get involved in direct action. It will run during our week long protest camp near Glasgow.
Vi i Framåt Kamrater välkomnar er till vår studiecirkel om transpolitik och transfobi där vi under 7 veckor kommer att studera en bredd av texter (och videor!) relaterade till kön och genus, byråkrati och moralpanik, feminism och queerteori. Tillsammans med er vill vi vända upp-och-ner på patriarkatet och studera det som trillar ut.
På onsdag 23/7 har Framåt kamraters transstudiecirkel sin andra träff!
Den här veckan pratar vi om Philosophy Tubes videoessä "I Emailed My Doctor 133 Times: The Crisis In the British Healthcare System" som ett intro till transvården, byråkratier och deras problem.
Cirkeln är öppen för alla. Vi möts på Syndikalistiskt forum (Linnégatan 21) kl 18.00. Du hittar hela upplägget med alla träffar på https://framåtkamrater.se/?p=971
På onsdag 30/7 har Framåt kamraters transstudiecirkel sin tredje träff!
Den här veckan pratar vi om utdrag ur Michael Lipskys "Street-level bureaucracy" som en fördjupning i hur s.k "frontlinjebyråkraters" materiella intressen formar mötet med allmänheten.
Cirkeln är öppen för alla. Vi möts på Syndikalistiskt forum (Linnégatan 21) kl 18.00. Du hittar hela upplägget med alla träffar på https://framåtkamrater.se/?p=971
På onsdag 6/8 har Framåt kamraters transstudiecirkel sin fjärde träff!
Vi diskuterar "Transkriget" och utdrag ur "Irreversible damage" för att bättre förstå transfobi och dess idégods (helt ok att komma utan att ha läst den här veckan❤️)
Cirkeln är öppen för alla. Vi möts på Syndikalistiskt forum (Linnégatan 21) kl 18.00. Du hittar hela upplägget med alla träffar på https://framåtkamrater.se/?p=971
Transvården har blivit en av vår tids mest omdebatterade frågor. Där en sida menar att vården räddar liv menar andra att den löser upp gränserna mellan könen och riskerar att ge livslånga skador.
På onsdag 13/8 har Framåt kamraters transstudiecirkel sin femte träff!
Vi fortsätter diskussionen av "fiendetexter", denna vecka "The transsexual empire" och "Om könets existens". (Igen helt ok att komma utan att ha läst den här veckan❤️)

The video features a person sitting in the driver's seat of a car with a sunroof, wearing a black shirt and a seatbelt. The interior of the car is visible, including the headrest and part of the rear seat. The person is animatedly gesturing with their hands while speaking, indicating they are engaged in a conversation or monologue. The background outside the car shows a clear sky and some greenery, suggesting the car is parked or moving slowly.
Text overlays appear throughout the video, providing context to the conversation. Initially, the text reads, "SO I HAVE A FRIEND THAT IS EXCEEDINGLY WEALTHY," followed by "LIKE NOT RICH," and then "BUT HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS LAIR." The final text overlay reads, "AND I AND I DON'T THINK I'M GONNA HEAR ABOUT WEALTHY PEOPLE." The TikTok username "[@]inthebalaban" is visible in the bottom left corner of the frames.
The person's hand movements are expressive, with gestures such as clapping, pointing, and forming an 'OK' sign, emphasizing their points. The lighting inside the car is bright, with sunlight streaming through the sunroof, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The video captures the person's dynamic and engaging communication style, with the text overlays adding depth to the narrative.

She thinks... nobody's ever tried to automate picking fruit? Really?
And then we'll talk about the "tehe we'll just make the Medicaid people work the farms" part.

So carrots, nuts, sour cherries for pie filling, berries & grapes that will be dried, tomatoes for sauce- those are picked by machine already.

in reply to Sarah Taber • • •But berries, fruit, tomatoes, etc that are eaten fresh can't be automated w current technology.
I know because I worked for a lot of the startups that tried!
There's no way to pick fast enough by machine to be commercially viable, without bruising so they rot before they get to the store.

in reply to Sarah Taber • • •A thing that kept happening to me, as a white American who worked manual labor field jobs (we are in fact out here, sorry)
is finding out I was the only fool on the crew who was there voluntarily & getting paid. Everyone else was convicts with a sentence.
Sarah Taber
in reply to Sarah Taber • • •So they were completely new to farm labor & didn't really want to be there. Part of the job is I was supposed to "mentor" them.
News flash: inexperienced people who don't want to be there DON'T DO GOOD WORK. Even if they want to, they don't know how.
Sarah Taber
in reply to Sarah Taber • • •Farmers would hire these crews bc they "didn't want to hire migrants" but also "didn't want to pay real wages."
And they were ALWAYS disappointed w the results. Slow. Sloppy. Kept breaking stuff bc they were clumsy.
No real cost savings compared to just hiring real workers.

They were harmless. And also, clumsy af. Big kids who had no idea where their feet were. They kept stepping on the blueberry transplants we'd just planted.

in reply to Sarah Taber • • •Another crew was a bunch of minors who were working as "community service" for juvie.
They all smoked, bc juvie. Tobacco is packed with plant viruses that are super contagious; can be spread just by touch. So "don't smoke in the fields" is a key farm rule.
Sarah Taber
in reply to Sarah Taber • • •Not only did the juvie crew not know or care. The FOREMEN didn't know or care. That's how janky this outfit was.
Hope those fields turned out ok 🙃

It takes real skills, knowledge, & people who gaf about what they're doing.
Stop treating agriculture like society's dumping ground.

Yes, thank you for this thread & for kicking off such a great discussion on the basics of what it takes to do agricultural work well. 🙂
Points to a wider issue: complete divorce & chasm between real world & wherever it is Thump & his billionaire backers live. Similar to the growing gap between real value (things in the real world) & share market 'value'. 😐

in reply to Sarah Taber • • •Yes it IS.
I think EVERYONE should have to detassel corn for a DAY. As farm work goes, its probably the easiest, and to learn, but its still hard work - the (seed) corn is only 1-2 ft tall so bending; your hands get shredded; you're in the middle of a massive flat corn field in 30C+ weather in the sun.
I did corn for six summers; its seasonal, pays pretty good but I could not imagine doing tobacco, any field produce, berries - absolute nightmare food. Back hurts just thinking.

in reply to Sarah Taber • • •The Wookie
in reply to Sarah Taber • • •As a kid that grew up on a farm this needs to be said louder. AG labor not only takes real skills and knowledge but also a dedication to work long hours when the weather is right for planting/harvesting and the endurance to do it. It also can be a job with zero days off. Ask the average dairy farmer what the weekend or a vacation is and they'll look at you cross-eyed.
If we want a 100% US AG Workforce than let's create a path to citizenship for the people that want to do the work. The immigrant harvesting the fields or working a meat packing plant is not a threat to our nation but not having them is.
And while we're at it let's break up the big AG monopolies so that small family farms and small AG businesses can compete.

This week I heard a piece on our local NPR station where a potato farmer was interviewed; he said he can't get local workers at $17/hr.
Of course, that's just a seasonal job doing heavy physical labor outdoors in the heat, and the housing and transportation issues are real barriers. And I think his is a small farm, so not necessarily representative of the big ag operations.
Indeed, "people don't want to work" doesn't seem like a satisfactory explanation.

in reply to Rejin • • •@rejinl We turned a bunch of the best near-urban farmland in the world into suburbs, kicked the farms out so far that few people can commute there, and now complain that there aren’t enough farmworkers.
A planned economy would have easily avoided this. The free market has now rendered a lot of the best farmland in the world unusable for growing crops, to build housing, and also nobody likes living in suburbs and we still have a housing crisis.

in reply to Diane • • •@alienghic @ufwupdates The part of this that you are missing is that there is no such thing as "able-bodied people on Medicaid" who aren't employed.
That's federal law, since the Clinton Administration, over 30 years ago. ABAWDs (able-bodied adults aged 18-64 without dependents) do *not* qualify for Medicaid, at all, unless they are employed, period.
Only children, disabled people, people with dependents who are full-time caregivers, and the elderly get a free pass.

in reply to Star12Mt • • •@Star12Mt @alienghic @ufwupdates I know all this, because I have been an ABAWD on Medicaid, and the restrictions only get lifted under particular economic downturn conditions, and even then, only when the Governor of a state requests the waiver, which they don't always do.
ABAWDs do not get public assistance without employment. Period.
Most recently, waivers were granted during the early years of the COVID-19 pandemic, but all those have since expired.
Gemma ⭐️🔰🇺🇸 🇵🇭 🎐
in reply to Gemma ⭐️🔰🇺🇸 🇵🇭 🎐 • • •@Star12Mt Furthermore, the *only* forms of public assistance for which ABAWDs can qualify *at all* are:
Medicaid
SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, "food stamps")
and LIHEAP (Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program, for heating fuel costs)
except that in 12 states only, ABAWDs can receive General Assistance (cash welfare payments, and it's not a lot).
No one is getting rich, fat, and lazy on welfare in the US. The benefits provided aren't even subsistence level.

in reply to Gemma ⭐️🔰🇺🇸 🇵🇭 🎐 • • •@alienghic This doesn't even begin to address the fact that even if these putative 34 million people existed, most of them almost certainly do not exist in places where they can be employed as farm labor, because they are mostly not in locations that are suitable for modern agriculture.
We can dispense with the notion that this fascist regime is suddenly going to start providing public housing in farming communities for farm laborers.
Everything she's saying is an obviously blatant lie.

in reply to Sarah Taber • • •Plus, that work is hugely physically demanding. (Duh, right?) Sometimes meaning plain strength, always meaning enormous levels of stamina and endurance. Without practice, you're toast. It's like going up against a rowing athlete when all you've done is puddle about on the lake a few Sundays.
Just one example, watching the cabbage harvest. Heft an ordinary white cabbage. About 3-4 lbs? The pickers would run, _run_, with carefully packed flats holding 12 heads, drop that off at the central collection tractor, and run back to continue picking.
They'd do that, starting at 5 or 6 in the morning, one early 15 min break, lunch 30 min or an hour, one later 15 min break, and then home after 8 solid hours of work around 3pm. (And then my neighbor would get the kids sorted out, cook dinner, and deal with errands. She was probably typical in having two actual jobs.)
And politicians think they can get disabled Medicaid people or prison labor to work to that level?
