> Where are the 48 New Mexicans that were disappeared by our government the first week of March? We have heard nothing since they were kidnapped. No due process, not even names released.

¿Cómo destruir los servicios públicos? 1. Reduce drásticamente su presupuesto. Echas gente a la calle y no repones jubilaciones. 2. Te quejas del deterioro en su calidad. 3. Dices que la degradación de los servicios públicos es una prueba de su ineficiencia. 4. Los privatizas.
"The coming summer is forecast to be a scorcher across the U.S. As heat waves are getting more intense and prolonged, their effect on the mind and body are also becoming more dire. Children and older people, as well as those who work outdoors, are most at risk. So are those with mental health disorders."
"Prolonged heat waves also appear to worsen the risk among young children—and even the unborn—of developing mental health ailments in the future. Older people may also be particularly affected, such as by accelerated dementia and Alzheimer’s."
"Extreme heat is here to stay, at least for the foreseeable future. We need to prepare people and communities to reduce the risk of mental health emergencies."

I know, my friend,
that this new wave
does not seem too frightening,
by now you have survived
many waves
so surely you can survive
another one,
but please, my friend, remember
that many of those
who did not survive the last wave
initially approached it
with the same attitude.
Protesters: are you paying attention? Break up the bigger protests into a large number of smaller protests to make things difficult for the Stasi, I mean the SS, I mean the pigs, I… you know what I mean.
Author of "One-Straw Revolution" and "Sowing Seeds in the Desert," #MasanobuFukuoka devised the seed pellet, a ball of #clay containing #seeds that you disperse in the environment. The clay protects the seeds from being washed away or eaten by insects.
There is also documentation of enslaved West Africans using clay to coat rice seeds in Georgia and the Carolinas.
