My brain fog means I definitely have no memory of what I put where and I&#39;m occasionally very pleasantly surprised with my decisions. <br/><br/>I&#39;m already happily seeing patches of sedum I tucked around in November and December. I love weaving sedums around my garden. They create such amazing low maintenance texture and always let you know when they are happy to be somewhere.<br/><br/>This is my main focus on gardening with mecfs. I do a bit if the more intensive stuff when I have the spoons, but working with the weather and seasons to get things established is about a million fewer spoons in terms of effort and reward. The majority of my planting season ends in April, right around the time things start to get too warm for my POTS. Navigating mecfs is like learning to surf. You have to look for the right waves to ride, and then just jump on for the journey. <br/><br/>#gardening #slowPlanting #mecfs 2026-04-01T17:26:32Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsqwxyefum8tgqhvd5k8szhu0u49yq3hzejp6g78c844tynqvl08rqzyzfkjvs6pmasn2hh57e6c6hrutal4mtnv6duvu4wjk0tvslthy64gl4z22c In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsdcgagjujt2k58margtm6c6r4ykk7zr9h6njys8p57l0ank8dj6zq9ucr2g'>nevent1q…cr2g</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>That&#39;s what reform was in Canada too.

The best fan we have is one that fits in the window with reversible air exchange and would turn it on as soon as the sun went down to pull the hot air out and the cool air in. My partner also built a corsi rosenthal box on the outside (our window was under a large overhang. It made the forest fire season livable.

Still I thought I would share my strawberry tower design. <br/><br/>I made this from a heat treated pallet that I had attempted to turn into an oyster mushroom farm, but it was the year we were trapped in the heat dome and stuck inside with forest fire smoke and my MECFS was at peak awful. It floundered in the heat, but my friends hauled it to my place when we moved and it was used as a compost bin last year. <br/><br/>Our climate here has changed a lot since I first started gardening. We are now nearly underwater for the winter and a desert without rain for the summer it seems. <br/><br/>Because of that I&#39;ve been trying to incorporate a moisture battery inside any of our new beds. The cost of soil and compost here have absolutely skyrocketed beyond anything I&#39;ve ever seen, so we are attempting to compost in place as much as possible. It&#39;s a slow process, but it&#39;s working and mulching everything with our fallen leaves keeps it from looking too messy. <br/><br/>I started with the existing compost in the bin and secured it a bit with some bark pieces from our firewood, then lined the lower box with cardboard and added some topsoil, kelp, canola meal and rock phosphate.<br/><br/> I have also been incorporating any charcoal from the fireplace into the bin and our other compost to create some biochar for the soil as well as wood ash because we have highly acidic soil around the Salish Sea. The central tower will be lined with burlap when I get some from my friend who roasts coffee.<br/><br/>I am placing a central column of firewood and wood waste surrounded by more topsoil and organic compost materials. It will break down over time, but we will continue to add materials from the top .<br/><br/>I have currently punched holes into the cardboard and planted some Albion strawberries that were growing in a pot with my fig tree. As they grow I will build the tower with the offshoots cutting holes in the galvanized mesh for them. The mesh should be buried and integrated in the base enough to keep the tower in place without too much reinforcement, but possibly a u-bar if I notice leaning. The mesh is secured with UV resistant zap straps for now because it was what I had, but a rust proof wire would be ideal. <br/><br/>The corners of the lower part of the tower will house pollinator friendly flowers and the top will eventually house either chives or a tumbling cherry tomato. I will post updates as it grows. <br/><br/>#gardening #smallSpaceGardening #verticalHugelcuture #PNWGardening<br/> <img src="https://files.starlite.rodeo/media_attachments/files/115/963/522/390/353/820/original/1839dd19cc5cc871.jpeg"> <br/> <img src="https://files.starlite.rodeo/media_attachments/files/115/963/522/966/444/551/original/a5c4914e491b9984.jpeg"> <br/> <img src="https://files.starlite.rodeo/media_attachments/files/115/963/522/818/260/679/original/431fa99fea8a9acb.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-01-26T21:31:43Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsw9agyqvq36as3kk2kynf2tghqf0tyhv2lwlakp4hl95rpafk4vnszyzfkjvs6pmasn2hh57e6c6hrutal4mtnv6duvu4wjk0tvslthy64gweflnx This is you daily reminder:<br/><br/>Don&#39;t you dare normalize any of this shit. 2026-01-25T01:13:06Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs2hds4ezs2ywaqfthtvnaewhhc4xvxmnss8m2ewhvct6ngfmtcy3gzyzfkjvs6pmasn2hh57e6c6hrutal4mtnv6duvu4wjk0tvslthy64gdh4cch Esa Mighty - Falastini<br/><br/><a href="https://youtu.be/e6W58kLMLC0">https://youtu.be/e6W58kLMLC0</a><br/><br/>#musicForTheResistance 2026-01-22T16:04:19Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsfggcs4yt7xdn2s9ec2463vtdyyykjj2zuvzu94g59ve468rjvjjszyzfkjvs6pmasn2hh57e6c6hrutal4mtnv6duvu4wjk0tvslthy64gyq2ydy Billy Bragg &amp; Wilco<br/><br/><a href="https://youtu.be/Vq75KA5IA0A">https://youtu.be/Vq75KA5IA0A</a><br/><br/>#musicForTheResistance 2026-01-22T15:55:03Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsfjkegk6nqqa46sxmeewtasvvakpre4jengx8y4xf9vw3cjahq57czyzfkjvs6pmasn2hh57e6c6hrutal4mtnv6duvu4wjk0tvslthy64gd3x9h2 Tribe Called Quest - We The People<br/><br/><a href="https://youtu.be/vO2Su3erRIA">https://youtu.be/vO2Su3erRIA</a><br/><br/>#musicForTheResistance 2026-01-22T15:49:45Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsfj5v405kf7hhalqknywkajhw7s9drjfref739m4r9aylxezm3jcqzyzfkjvs6pmasn2hh57e6c6hrutal4mtnv6duvu4wjk0tvslthy64gegd87j Parkour!<br/><br/>#gusTheCat #Caturday #catsOfFedi<br/> <img src="https://files.starlite.rodeo/media_attachments/files/115/917/453/061/743/552/original/d8def928fccfcd8f.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-01-18T18:14:45Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsr78rya899xyl6kc8qfh7gak5s52ud40un4kep26ge85n4p4lkx0gzyzfkjvs6pmasn2hh57e6c6hrutal4mtnv6duvu4wjk0tvslthy64gevxv5a The Isley Brothers - Fight the Power Pt 1 &amp; 2<br/><br/><a href="https://youtu.be/8QZvoOqUkqw">https://youtu.be/8QZvoOqUkqw</a><br/><br/>#musicForTheResistance 2026-01-17T16:59:29Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsyhytg00z4n4utgrn3lwajthup52f7mkvzdz6sp5jsky39nw2gk4qzyzfkjvs6pmasn2hh57e6c6hrutal4mtnv6duvu4wjk0tvslthy64gyehh8a A Tribe Called Red - Electric Pow Wow<br/><br/><a href="https://youtu.be/cj3U0z64_m4">https://youtu.be/cj3U0z64_m4</a><br/><br/>#musicForTheResistance 2026-01-17T16:52:52Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqspewhuqyhfzm07lfpzmxsaf7h3l7vyj4mjyt7lqmyv3pmma8kta7gzyzfkjvs6pmasn2hh57e6c6hrutal4mtnv6duvu4wjk0tvslthy64gwrk5qw Public Enemy - Welcome to the Terrordome<br/><br/><a href="https://youtu.be/vfowA1lg2G8">https://youtu.be/vfowA1lg2G8</a><br/><br/>#musicForTheResistance 2026-01-16T23:52:11Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs04lvtk3gqcsynuznd5jrgh4nye0dyku4ru9jf80v892vdnlvxshszyzfkjvs6pmasn2hh57e6c6hrutal4mtnv6duvu4wjk0tvslthy64gahuyv9 Kae Tempest - Statue in the Square<br/><br/><a href="https://youtu.be/aTDOFaAcEyc">https://youtu.be/aTDOFaAcEyc</a><br/><br/>#musicForTheResistance #joinIn #transGEM 2026-01-16T23:25:24Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqszkj6x8uzhyy8pztx4d03fnzjjgtvplctjdjy38u2yt7727dcj05qzyzfkjvs6pmasn2hh57e6c6hrutal4mtnv6duvu4wjk0tvslthy64gx0494z Was sitting here this morning thinking about my American friends and my Palestinian friends and my friends in Sudan and Congo and Iran and the current state of the world and my heart was breaking. <br/><br/>One of the worst aspects to my whole battle with MECFS is not being able to show up as solidarity in physical form, but I realized I do spin a pretty fierce dance party.

Everything has been better - Sleep, mental health, digestion, you name it.<br/><br/>It breaks my heart that this is legitimately a massive privilege these days here in Canada. <br/><br/>If you are a renter here in BC, there is no stability in your human right to housing. Our rental protections have been gutted for years and years. As someone who has gone through that process it helped absolutely nothing even when it was adjudicated in our favour.<br/><br/>Nearly everyone I know lives in fear of eviction or homelessness. There is no real way to ever feel comfortable or at home. If you are disabled there is nothing available that will allow you housing at this point other than a 7-14 year waitlist, or family unless you&#39;ve already been in the system for years.<br/><br/>This is completely lost on older generations most of the time. We are powerless in the face of wealthy landlords who will do whatever the fuck they want with next to no retribution for any of it. <br/><br/>Stable housing should be a human right. An ability not to feel like a leaf in the wind who pays 75% of your income to subsidize a wealthy land owner.

I find it sensorily overpowering in the worst way.<br/><br/> Some cities I&#39;ve travelled to have been overpowering in terms of sound for me: cars, traffic, lots of overwhelming sounds and I usually have to retreat at some point a few times a day to recuperate, but I think cicadas in Tokyo on a hot summer night would find me curled up in the fetal position. <br/>Kryptonite.<br/><br/>#auDHD <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub10v4vhs3yx0g5lyw7wjn3arkqdazna5v7p237m79wc9lk6d5r72lsnls27h" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>ActuallyAutistic group</span> (<span class="italic">npub10v4…s27h</span>)</a></span> #sound 2025-09-02T04:52:57Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsfm5u7r2hgkprwsauhlrtr0g48mz49drn2qpg9aeky9eutxk4wyaczyzfkjvs6pmasn2hh57e6c6hrutal4mtnv6duvu4wjk0tvslthy64gamvflw 15 mins with a hedge trimmer is my maximum output on a good day.

I made them almost five years ago out of some denim coloured cotton chambray and they haven&#39;t aged a bit save the area around the pocket where I should have put a bar tack, but didn&#39;t really know/ understand that part yet. Today with a tiny 5 minute repair they are good as new and as light as pajamas.<br/><br/>I used to think I hated summer, but I was wrong. I just never had any comfortable summer clothes for most of my life, and being a size that constantly fell somewhere between standard and plus sizes I sort of gave up. <br/><br/>I wish sewing had been more size inclusive when I was younger, or i&#39;d jumped right into pattern making like I did when I started in my 40s.

I just got a &#34;supply&#34; catalogue from a bulb company I support. I will admit that there are a few tools I find invaluable, like a Japanese weeder, secateurs, a loop hoe, but I cannot fathom spending $150 on a tomato trellis or $99 on a cucumber trellis when I could use a stick. Seedling tongs? I have neuropathy and essential tremor and can still figure out how to get my seedlings out of the container.<br/><br/>I feel like it&#39;s beginner gardeners who get taken advantage of too. Like, who on earth told you that you needed a compost blanket? Have you heard of leaves? A sheet of cardboard? I haven&#39;t used a tomato cage in years because I realized I could just use a bamboo pole or a long stick and tie the tomato to it and never fight with trying to find the tomatoes ever again and then compost it when it had lived its life. Accessibility tools are one thing, but i feel like most of it is useless stuff for white people to spend their money on. Anyways, that&#39;s my grumpy rant of the day. Spend your money on plants and seeds. <br/><br/>#gardening #growYourOwn 2025-05-22T15:35:01Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqstqulhpr6vftezphkgchztags4c8skta5qtvau2u6z3x88mt652mgzyzfkjvs6pmasn2hh57e6c6hrutal4mtnv6duvu4wjk0tvslthy64g9ue5d6 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs9qql9trzmgupkk242xq766t7v6wkm475r0kdn6zgs58prnqccsjg96erkg'>nevent1q…erkg</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I finally got our big order of liatris corms in the mail.

Especially native ones. You can literally propagate them by breaking off a small chunk of your original plant and sticking it in the ground. You can neglect them pretty extensively and they will just keep doing their thing. They mat out and squelch your weeds, giving anything else you plant a better chance as well. <br/><br/>#gardening #tipsFromAGardenDesigner #droughtTolerant #cheap 2025-03-13T17:10:11Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsxwfyn32k5fcxjyur60ekfsvnn99zp4e864zsfy3meqnrk6pj4hjqzyzfkjvs6pmasn2hh57e6c6hrutal4mtnv6duvu4wjk0tvslthy64grrlenw Three Good Things<br/><br/>Planted the little apple tree that arrived in the mail today.

The average home in 2025 is so toxic while burning that it&#39;s hard to watch; far more toxic than homes historically have ever been throughout history. This is something they drilled into us deeply while training. <br/><br/>The cause and effect can be long term and utterly devastating. A mask is gonna save your life in the coming years, be it pandemic or flames. <br/><br/>Wear a mask, shower often. Wash your hands before you eat.
