The typical pompous, elitist loonytarian perspective that I would expect from Custard. 

“I got mine, so fuck the rest of the farmers who are struggling with high fertilizer and fuel costs.”
https://www.fb.org/market-intel/farm-bureau-survey-reveals-real-impact-of-fertilizer-availability-and-price

Lol couldn’t be further from the truth. I am in the fertilizer efficiency business and we have two products that allow farmers to use less fertilizer and get the same or better yields. Business is booming while we actively help farmers do more with less. They have been needing to cut back for years as we’ve seen with the hypoxia in the Gulf of America and river degradation. Now they finally have the economic incentive to do so and get their soils back into balance.

Also, I will continue to reiterate that farmers that don’t hedge their price risk on fertilizers are fucking morons. If you look towards the end of the article you posted you can see it’s mostly the small hobby farms that left themselves exposed to the increase in prices, which is exactly what I’ve been saying.

People that farm for a living and run their farms like an actual business would never allow that to happen. The funny part is that fertilizer isn’t even in short supply, collusion between the few big companies that control the supply allows them to price gouge and use the war as an excuse. Lots of companies did the same thing during Covid across all industries.

Crop prices now the highest in 3 years, nice to see farmers able to lock in sales above the cost of production. The smart ones that locked in fuel and fertilizer like actual businesses will be in great shape meanwhile the sad hobby farmers they find for Murph and PAMan’s interviews will continue to struggle

So does Lee Zeldin. He has the National Forest Service using Roundup in the Forests.

Using it to kill invasive species here and there in a non-food crop setting is a lot better than using it year after year after year on the same land and having residues in our food and water and soil. Very useful molecule, but way overused/abused

You're gonna be posting the pre-war prices until the 2028 election and claim that's what you are paying.

I haven’t paid over $4 yet for war gas except when I was in Illinois in late March. I hate Illinois nazis.

Paid $5.50 in California last October which was more than it was in Hawaii in February

But you’ve been on the record in the past that gas and food are too cheap so this is really just about your narrative. You didn’t expect anyone to remember that, so based on your true feelings you should be loving Trump right now.

We are going to find out, one way or the other.

He’s going to get $8.69 back

I grew up in Boulder. It was as white bread as you can get. Two black people and one jewish person in my entire high school.

Not a lot of racism - because we weren't taught any racism because the minorities were basically a curiosity. No white candidate for office spent any mental energy on suppressing the black vote. If someone was having a tough time financially, they didn't have black people to blame it on. It wasn't that the people wouldn't be racist given the opportunity, it's that the opportunity didn't exist.

The presence of black people doesn't make you non-racist. It gives you an opportunity to let your freak flag fly, like the confederate flag in front of Custard's house there in Selma.

Then you, like Tempo, moved to another place that also doesn’t have black people. I see you

Account originates from the U.S.!



Luckily most of the southeast and eastern Midwest got a bunch of rain the last couple days.

140,000 family farms have disappeared in the last year.

This is not an accident. Since Obama, companies like Bayer have been secretly consolidating the American food supply, mass poisoning us, and waging war on organic farmers.

More fake fucking news. 140,000 in the last decade or so, maybe. Farm numbers have been declining steadily since the 1930s, with some periods worse than others.

Don’t let Jobu see you slander Bayer like that, he says Roundup is safe.

Still, Trump promised to cut energy prices in half by reducing regulations and buildings pipelines. He  did reduce regulations and pipelines were built. However, energy bills have increased as much as 13%.

Perhaps, instead of promising to cut energy prices in half via deregulation and pipeline construction, he should have mentioned all of those excuses?

You call this “spin” when democrats do it. No one with half a brain thought he was cutting energy in half. Gas was cut a lot though until March 1.

To claim America is a post-racist society is just so out of touch with reality. But then as Murph points out, he lives in his white Alabama cul de sac, secluded from the real world.

My area of suburban/exurban Nashville has more black people by percentage than Itasca, very similar affluence, and high rates of bachelors and graduate degree educations.

So GTFOOH with this “Alabama cul de sac” shit. There are tons of black people in the south. And they’re a lot different for the most part than the black folks up north who have been mostly confined to inner cities.

There are multiple young black professional families in our neighborhood.

Champaign had at least 2 tornado warnings yesterday, maybe 3. Part of it is advanced Doppler radar detection, but there were years they didn't get three..

Weather averages are typically a mix of a bunch of disparate numbers. Detection systems are more advanced and warnings are invoked more frequently. The local siren went off for 30 mins straight last night when everyone was trying to sleep and all it did was thunder and rain hard. There weren’t any dangerous storms anywhere near us. Didn’t use to be that way.

Thank high demand due to Murph’s AI centers for jacking up electricity rates for everyone. And EV electricity demand, coal retirement, and a bunch of other stuff that was in motion long before Trump regained office. Demand is outpacing supply.

Oil and gas were at multi year lows for most of his second term aside from the last 50 days or so, which haven’t even been as high as we saw in 2022.

Besides, I was told here presidents don’t make gas prices.

Interview with the Iranian LEGO crew (I have not watched it yet).

Remember when you said you weren’t consuming and posting Iranian propaganda?
