Nectarine farmer in California is giving away his entire 125,000 lbs of ripe nectarines to the public for free
He says Big Agriculture in California has made it impossible for him to harvest and sell his nectarines
You can go pick for free from June 29–July 3, at 21500 E. Parlier, Reedley, California. 7am-10am
What’s happening is a handful of large marketers and packers dominate, they are squeezing independent growers
Direct-to-retail attempts often get countered aggressively. The big companies severely undercut farmers like this to drive them out of business

Perhaps Canadians would be safer if the @RCMP were not tied up dealing with imported gang conflicts playing out on our soil.
💥A LESSON IN BEING CANADIAN:
A group of Indian men decided Canada's pristine wilderness was their dumping grounds—a local man tracks them down, makes them pick up their garbage and escorts them to the dump.
A fumaça de alecrim no galinheiro é um método antigo que ainda funciona.
🌿 Antes dos desinfetantes industriais, os camponeses italianos e os seus homólogos franceses, queimavam molhos de alecrim seco no estábulo e no galinheiro uma vez por mês.
Não era um ritual. Era uma técnica.
O alecrim queimado liberta em fase gasosa cânfora, cineol, alfa-pineno e ácido rosmarínico.
Em espaço fechado, estes compostos atingem concentrações letais para os artrópodes: moscas, mosquitos, ácaros, pulgas e piolhos, sem afetar mamíferos e aves, que toleram concentrações muito superiores.
É esta seletividade que tornava a técnica viável num galinheiro cheio.
— O ácaro vermelho (Dermanyssus gallinae) é o parasita mais temido na avicultura.
Esconde-se nas fendas da madeira dos poleiros durante o dia e suga o sangue das galinhas à noite.
Uma infestação forte provoca anemia, queda na postura e mortalidade dos pintos.
Os camponeses fumigavam o galinheiro vazio (galinhas fora), deixando a fumaça penetrar em cada fenda durante uma hora. O efeito durava 2 a 3 semanas.
As moscas dos estábulos; Stomoxys calcitrans e Musca domestica, caíam em poucos minutos.
A fumigação mensal interrompia progressivamente o ciclo reprodutivo.
A tradição não se limitava ao alecrim:
• Sálvia seca: mesmos princípios ativos, usada onde faltava alecrim.
• Zimbro seco: fumaça resinosa eficaz contra moscas e mosquitos, clássica nos estábulos alpinos.
• Lavanda seca: fumigação dos quartos contra percevejos; o linalol queimado tornava as fendas da madeira inabitáveis.
🌿 A fumigação com ervas também tinha um papel de desodorização.
A fumaça aromática mascarava o amoníaco do estrume; um irritante respiratório real para bovinos, suínos e aves.
Reduzir essa concentração melhorava concretamente o bem-estar dos animais.
🌿 Hoje, para quem gere um pequeno galinheiro biológico onde os tratamentos químicos não são desejáveis, queimar um molho de alecrim seco no galinheiro vazio uma vez por mês continua a ser um tratamento complementar contra o ácaro vermelho: sem resíduos, sem contaminação dos ovos e com o custo de um ramo.
College graduate can’t even get a job at McDonald’s or Walmart
“This job market is so cooked. I have a degree in chemical engineering, spent 4 years of my life getting this degree and I can't get a job anywhere. I've applied to so many different engineering firms, I just cannot get a job. So then I started applying to like places like Walmart and McDonald's, and I've been rejected from all of them, every single one”
“I spent 4 years of my life for this degree, and I can't even get a job that pays $14 an hour”
According to recent data, only about 30% of college graduates are able to find jobs with their degrees within a reasonable amount of time
They must put in an average over over 100+ applications
Average debt for bachelors degree: $35,000+
Average debt for masters degree: $77,000+
How is this now a scam
So to get both you must go into about $105,000 in debt
This is absolutely insane 🇨🇦...
The Canadian government is using taxpayer money to buy vacant properties so housing prices don't collapse...
The worst housing bubble in the world is about to get worse.
Spent the day in Alberta's mountains.
Had tea overlooking a sublime view of glaciers, the Bow Valley, and Lake Louise. It was great, after getting some altitude and above the Lake, which was absolutely PACKED with foreigners.
Parking was impossible, so even the access roads were lined with wandering non-citizens abusing Mark Carney's Canada Strong Pass. It should be called India's All-Access Pass. Local Albertans can't use their own damn park, let alone other Canadians. Parking for Canadians was $40. FOURTY. It was free for the bus loads of non-Canadians.
To make matters worse, the abuse of the natural environment was unreal. Garbage in the trees. People ripping tree branches down to use as walking sticks. People screaming into a livestream on a quiet forest trail to their family back home.
America charges foreigners to go to Yellowstone and Yosemite. I can see why.
Total disrespect for the most beautiful place on earth, and for the taxpayers that pay to keep it that way.
The Great Scam
After what @GadSaad posted yesterday, something I had no idea existed... an "Exit Tax" I did some digging.
This is what I found.
Canada's departure tax is one of the biggest scam taxes on the books. Apparently when you leave the country, the government treats you as if you sold every investment you own, even if you sold nothing.
You get hit with a tax bill on money you never touched, never withdrew, never spent. They literally invented a fake sale to justify taking your money.
Here's what makes it even worse. The stocks they're taxing? Those are foreign companies. Apple, Samsung, whatever you hold, those grew because of what those businesses did in their own countries, their own markets, with their own workers.
Canada had absolutely nothing to do with it. Zero. But they still want a cut just because you happened to live here while you owned them. They did nothing and still want to be paid like they did.
And before 1996 this didn't even exist the way it does now. Chrétien's government expanded it that year and buried it in section 128.1(4)(b) of the Income Tax Act like they hoped nobody would notice. Italy doesn't do this. Portugal doesn't. Belgium, Switzerland, the UK, none of them pull this shit.
You paid income tax every year. You paid sales tax. Property tax. You held up your end of the deal the whole damn time. And when you decide to go live somewhere else, they hit you with a bill for money that was never real to begin with.
Canada under any Liberal is a Scam!
> Govt brings in millions of indians
> Indians completely destroy local rivers with pollution
> UK govt refuses to clean it up
> Good Samaritan Brits volunteer their time to clean it up
> UK govt sends good samaritans to prison for 2 years for cleaning up garbage
A Canadian messaged me last week.
He said: I agree with everything you post.
I cannot say any of it at work.
I asked: what would happen if you did?
He said: reported to HR. Investigated. Probably let go.
He lives in Canada.
Not China. Not Russia.
Canada.
So yes.
A Japanese account in Tokyo will keep posting.
Until he can say it himself again.
