Hot take: The 2026 World Cup Final should be played in Pasadena instead of The Meadowlands.
MetLife Stadium is just another soulless NFL stadium.
The Rose Bowl is peak America. 🇺🇸
@VladimirJongUn@Jaberuski I went in a different carpet store there near the central market told the owner I was American and he pulled out a signed picture of Hillary Clinton, guess they fw them over there
👨🌾 Johnny Boone & the Cornbread Mafia
The Godfather of Grass has left the field. Johnny Boone (1943-2024), legendary leader of Kentucky's Cornbread Mafia, passed last year at 80 — one of the most mythic figures in American cannabis history. 🌿
From the hollows of central Kentucky, Boone and his crew built what federal prosecutors called the largest domestic marijuana syndicate in U.S. history. They turned family farms and national forest clearings into massive outdoor grows long before legalization was even a dream. Vietnam-era vets, mountain farmers, and outlaws growing sinsemilla and landrace varieties the old way — no lights, no labs, just soil, sun, and defiance.
Boone was arrested in '87, did hard time, came out, and still couldn't quit the plant. In 2008 they found over 2,400 seedlings on his Springfield farm. He went on the run for 8 years rather than face life under three-strikes. That's outlaw spirit.
Johnny Boone represents something deeper: the raw, pre-industrial era of American cannabis — homegrown, resilient genetics adapted to Appalachian soil and climate. The kind of heritage we fight to preserve before it's all lost to modern hybrids and corporate genetics.
Rest in power, Godfather. The smoke still rises in the hills.

This is a scientifically illiterate post by someone who has no idea how Americans manage wildlife populations. State agencies use complex, state of the art datasets on populations, prey base, habitat, human/wildlife conflict to set hunting quotas and ensure a sustainable harvest. Data from Camera traps, prey abundance studies, GPS collars, all inform statistical models are all paid for by hunting license dollars and taxes on guns and ammunition. So in many ways, our state of the art science and locally responsive management is thanks to hunters like Dart. Every state agency with a mountain lion hunt has goals of maintaining their population, balancing predators and prey, and stopping human/wildlife conflict.
