If you haven’t listened to Adeem the Artist and dig the #country #altcountry #americana sound, please give them a listen. Adeem identifies as #NonBinary and very much speaks truth to power on racism, LGBTQ+, and other issues that plague our country.
Unfortunately, they only posted this parody on twitter, so ignore the link if you’re trying to stay away from there. #Music

I’m in Southern CA (Zone 10a), too. Still don’t have any ripe tomatoes. Everything is super slow this year.
Congratulations to her and congratulations to her mother!
I mean, the Nazis quite literally tried to cancel several cultures.
Especially when you know the back story. Her step father was an abusive shitbag and she ran away from home at 15.
Nightflyer is really good, too.
I can only speak for my 2 GF kids, but they’ve tried other brands and Schar is still their favorite.
I can see that.
I think the really fun things with Americana is that it is such a wide ranging genre that there is a ton material to discover.
Years and years ago, I used Mint on an underpowered notebook and it worked well, but Mint kind of got bloated and I wasn’t a huge fan of it at the end.
I played around with a couple of other distros that I can’t remember at the moment on other older PCs. I think I just googled ‘good linux distro for old pcs’ and (whatever) they were did the trick for my kids.
You can do the whole ‘add to home screen’ and it sort of functions like an app in iOS.
Some of the NSFW subs, but more stuff like /altcountry (and similar genre music) and the gardening subs.
I graduated from high school in 1995. The community I grew up in was incredibly diverse. It was a decent sized city (100k+) and we had about 3,000 students the year I graduated.
That summer, we went to rural Idaho for a family reunion. It was probably the first time in my life that I visited a place that was exclusively white. I’m a white dude myself, but like I said, grew up in a diverse community.
The lack of diversity was a giant culture shock to me. I was in a small community with a population that was about half the size of the school I had just graduated from.
