  • Another Illinoisan checking in. I detassled with a kid who died this way one summer. He was like 17. Do NOT fuck around with corn silos. Have a classmate who’s kid had his pantleg get caught in a tractor’s PTO (I think - it may have been something connected to it)… absolutely tore his leg up and almost bled out (reconstructed and he’s walking now). And knew another dude who had a tractor roll over on him on a slope. I personally, sank the end of a razor sharp derogueing hook into my thumb and narrowly avoided lopping it right off. It’s dangerous fucking work and demands your respect and constant attention.




  • Ukraine is still in Europe no matter how you spin it. Russia has also invaded NATO aligned airspace, cut infrastructure lines in the ocean, likely blew up a critical fuel pipeline, continues aggressive cyber warfare, bombed a railway in Poland, and pays for bots and misinformation campaigns and supports right wing fascism in the US and EU. They rattle their nuclear sabre constantly and have also had illegal incursions across borders like Finland… Tell us again how Russia isn’t a nascent threat to all Europeans after invading a sovereign country twice, downing passenger jets and sending proxy ships for covert unconventional warfare? The EU is under attack already and at least Poland is awake to it.
