I'm a firm believer in lazy composting (roughly layer a pile, leave it alone). The results take longer but are just as good. More folks would try composting if they knew it could be easy.
Deep litter chicken bedding - look what’s just a few inches below the surface! This is *before* I’ve done any work to further compost it - my only inputs have been ~18 months of time (during about 10 of which chickens lived here) and a few bales of straw

As a citizen of the United States, do I or do I not have the right to freely travel across state lines? Do I have a right to keep the purpose of my travels private? I’m gonna need Democrats to speak out about this. Loudly. @SenateDems @HouseDemocrats @POTUS @VP

Twitter has decided that every third thing I see should be an advertisement for weed. I have no idea if that's all the advertisers left here or Twitter knows what kind of a week I've had and really thinks I need a toke.

And cotton is bad, silk is bad, rayon is bad, poly is bad, leather is bad, and bamboo is bad. I'm sure someone will find something wrong with wool too.
