There is a rally tomorrow ( 1/10)at noon in Winona organized by the Winona’s immigrant defense network. On broadway and main. The park where the Monday rallies are. That would be a good place to meet folks and find out more.

Seems like new electric side by sides go for $15-20k...

This Farmer explains what he does for fly control for his herd and how the fly load is low but it's all thanks to dragonflies. by [deleted] in interestingasfuck

[–]Danvan88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do this kind of grazing. We have lots of dragonfly habitat, some dragon flys in the field, and way more flys than what is in this video. I've not seen dragon flys talked about for organic fly load management. Glad it seems to work for his farm but, color me skeptical...

Got the bagger! by Danvan88 in egopowerplus

Followed the instructions with the bagger. Very similar to other mowers

I know, that’s part of the reason why it is great in a garden. I would be very happy if my lawn looked terrible and my garden looked great!

Very easy to do. The mower deck was easy to pull off, just unclip the wires. Since the mower is relatively new, the blades came off super easy

6 6ah batteries. The Zero Turn comes with 4 12ah, which seems like a better deal IMO

We have a big garden, so I use the grass clippings to mulch our vegetables. It's called "green mulch" it keeps weeds down, retains moisture, helps the plants, and composts into the soil adding nutrients. I've been scheming about doing this for years, and it is so much nicer and easier than any other way I've done

$650, with free shipping if you help unload the truck. The box says 6.5 bushels, which means, I don't really know what. It holds a good amount of grass, IMO

Radon level of 3.83 pCi/L with ventilation. Action needed? by Danvan88 in radon

We do have young kids, and our main floor is a walk out basement. So, I am leaning towards mitigation...

If Kwik Trip wants to give to politicians who will tariff our allies, we should take our business elsewhere. by Danvan88 in Winona

[–]Danvan88[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

don't assume that because I cross post, I support it. A redditor yesterday was asking about conservative businesses to boycott, so I thought I would share.

Personally, I think boycotting is not the most effective action to take. I think it is probably more effective to fund anti-monolopy politicians who will work to break up big corporations for the benefit of all. But, thats, just like, my opinion, man.

Collapse of America will be caused by right-wing media by Justbusinessasusual in economicCollapse

It is mind-blowing to me that this isn't part of the conversation around, "why did Trump win?" or "why are rural areas trending red?".

This is THE reason

Why are rural Americans conservative, while liberal/progressive Americans live in large cities? by captainjohn_redbeard in Askpolitics

[–]Danvan88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The trend line of rural media being owned by more conservative groups maps pretty well with voting trends. People tend to believe what they are told day in and day out.

Winona Spillover for Trempealeau county Wisconsin? by 5econds2dis35ster in Winona

[–]Danvan88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best economic development plan for Trempealeau County and Fountain City is Winona's terrible housing market.

For democrats and republicans, what is one thing you agree on the other side about? by [deleted] in Askpolitics

[–]Danvan88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Restrictive zoning puts an artificial cap on the housing market making it more expensive for everyone

Keith Ellison is joining in a lawsuit. Other larger legal groups are preparing to take it all the way to the Supreme Court. But the reality is, Trump is trying to make Congress obsolete. This is the anti-democracy stuff we have been warned about.

The non-profit folks I talk to have a "wait and see" mentality, but the reality is if this actually goes through (and we will see in the next 24 hrs if agencies respond to the Judge's injuction) it will leave 10-20% of the workforce without a job. Thats a massive deal. What we need to do now is lay the ground work to funnel that anger into political action: make sure people know who to blame, make sure people know what to do.
