You will patch up all the holes in 2025.

your unreliable narrator fucking bit me
She snapped because it’s infuriating how people will twist practices that make perfect sense as a way to turn a profit or to accuse producers/processors of wasting food or ruining product for something as silly as food not being “pretty.”
Yes, food waste is an issue, but it’s not the issue you think it is.
Very informative thread -source
imagine finding a fossil that at first seems like an ancient human, but once you actually take samples of it, you find out it's a 17 million year old fossil, and it's a perfect dna match to you.
Correcting a Chinese kid's English homework that another American got wrong on a Chinese app named after Mao Zedong's Little Red Book as part of a mass online temper tantrum to help save TikTok was not on my 2025 bingo card, but here we are.
This might actually be the political fuck-up of the century. Our politicians are all 900 year old crypt keepers who probably turn off their computers by unplugging them from the wall. Were there a single synapse in their decrepit domes focused on something besides their next payday, they might have thought twice about challenging Millennials and Zoomers on the internet. I repeat, ON THE INTERNET. Oh to have the confidence of an octogenarian born into generational wealth.
Something I need people to understand is the "security threat" doesn't just stop at data. The mere act of normal Chinese and American citizens interacting scares the shit out of governments on both sides. I'm already seeing videos from folks here in the US talking about how shocked they were at the grocery hauls in China, and how much they could get with very little. Chinese people are watching Americans absolutely dog walk their own government and talk it for filth. People are having fun.
All rich people had to do was remember the deal. Americans are terrible people. If they had just paid folks enough to buy a house, an electric car, and a vacation once a year they'd sit in front of the TV in a docile fugue state while the wealthy shoved their boots up the ass of the global south. Now who knows what's going to happen. I just know it's a testament to how done with Mark Zuckerberg's ass people are that they're rather learn Mandarin than go back to Facebook.
I think 2025 is about to be a ride.
hi,
i am tempted to ask about you being "a fan of agriculture"
what do you mean by that?
Fantastic question that I’m happy to answer!
Short answer: I like food!
Long answer:
I truly believe that agriculture is one of the foundations of civilization and that being able to find ways to sustainably feed a community/population to the point that they can focus on building other aspects of the world around them (art, music, architecture, etc) is such an amazing thing we have managed to do.
Do I think agriculture industries anywhere in the world are perfect? No. Like medicine- agriculture is a #practice. It is constantly evolving with the world around it and that in itself is something to admire.
BUT I so deeply respect anyone who dedicates their life to raising crops and animals with such meticulous care. Especially when the work they do goes toward supporting communities that will never fully appreciate the scale, care, decisions, and work that goes into the balancing act of producing enough to make a living. And then to take that living they made and turn it immediately back to do it again??? Insane. Outstanding. And if you ask them why they do it??? Because someone has to. Despite being under constant scrutiny and having so much misinformation being spread by anyone and everyone (usually unintentionally but still) they just KEEP DOING IT?
And agriculture is so much on top of the actual growing of crops or livestock. There are endless opportunities for careers and connections to agriculture. Everyone is tied to it even if they have never stepped foot on a farm or ranch (a tragedy). If you ate food or put clothes on your body those things all came from agriculture.
Not to mention all of the intricacies of each specific agriculture and natural resources pathway/area. All full of people who are passionate about what they do and making sure they do it better than ever with even less resources.
*DEEP BREATH*
So anyway you could say I’m a casual fan.

i saw some comments on tiktok where people were talking bout how they found tumblr too hard to use and part of it being that there was no lack of dates so “what if you reblog or like something from five years ago?!”
buddy… we have posts circulating still from 2011, its literally just how it is
