No more ladies currently growing unfortunately…
A wildfire a few years ago hurt the business, and an ice storm this last winter sealed the deal - the company folded… About to move back to the city soon in hopes of better employment

For me in my line of work N, K and P is always the easiest. It’s always Ca and Mg causing problems
(Sidenote… It hurts that the meme isn’t in N-P-K order lol)
Nice, I’m bookmarking that one!
I got this one here a while ago after hearing lots of good things, tho admittedly haven’t gotten around to reading it just yet. It’s on my short list for next up tho
Its been awhile since I’ve lived in the city, and even longer since I’ve visited these folks’ place, but if you’re in the Portland, OR area Free Geek is definitely worth checking out!
Copy paste from their “about” section:
We are a non-profit organization with a mission: to repurpose technology and discover sustainable solutions while providing educational resources. Our ultimate aim is to foster a vibrant community where individuals are empowered to unlock their full potential. Through our dedicated efforts, we strive to transform the world by leveraging technology, sustainability, and education to create a brighter, more inclusive future, where every individual has the opportunity to thrive and make a meaningful impact…

Oh damn. Was coolroms part of that too? I’ve used emuparadise and coolroms a bunch over the years. Kinda makes me want to stock up just in case
I’m OOTL, which ROM sites got shut down?
ineffective altruism checking in! =P
I’ll second the Dickies. I used to wear Carhartt’s for work because they held up well. But lately they haven’t. The Dickies I’m currently rocking at work have so far held up really well, although I did just switch like 6 months ago. For what it’s worth, my poor, carpenter grandfather wore Dickies everything. Exclusively.
Cats in battle vests is a thing I am 100% here for. More of this please!

If you want to cry tears of pain and rage, listen to Dajah’s statement (one of the survivors) at the trial of the shooter. It’s…heavy, you’ve been warned.

What do we want!?
gradual change
When do we want it!?
in due time…
I see what you’re saying… But, you don’t start your negotiation by asking for incremental change. To continue on your analogy, the anti-abortion activists have been demanding a full stop to it up-front since they started…
Change may sometimes only happen incrementally, but nothing worthwhile will happen if that’s all that’s asked for.
2·9 months agoThis a great, thank you for sharing!
Thanks man. Almost 20yr long profession, and I think this is finally what’s gonna get me to switch things up.
Funny enough, one of the few gigs I applied to while waiting to hear the news from my boss was in fact a reclamation project, helping with the large dam removal here in OR. They had filled the position already tho. But that is the kind of career pivot I’d love to make!
But, I do love me some harebrained schemes! I’m all ears if you hear of anything.
Moving back to the city will be good for me - it’s where all my people and support networks are, it’s just not what I’d prefer to be doing long term.
