People have been talking about raising chickens…..
I was tasked with getting some fancy new chicks from Denton Texas at a feed store. For me this is a 2.25 hour drive. No biggie. Called the day before, said they get them at 10:45.
I get there at 11.
They got them at 9.
they had 160 + baby chicks in that shipment. I got the last 8.
The store’s staff were stunned, they have never seen this before.
Also got 7 more production reds. @ $30 each.
So inflation is egging on home poultry production? Makes sense with the economy rapidly becoming a shell of itself — though I suspect many of the folks don’t know what they’re getting into and are going off half cocked.
Sounds like ‘bodru really had to scramble to get the few chicks he did.
It makes zero fucking sense. Not economic sense, anyways.
I’ve been raising chickens for a decade. In no reality is raising chickens more economically efficient than buying even expensive eggs.
Can I have my wife call you? She’s wanting to just buy a couple and leave them in the yard.
That’s a way to buy expensive bait for whatever predators lurk in your area.
This is not a good idea.
Don’t get me wrong: I love chickens. They’re great fun, and addicting. The eggs are fantastic. But they’re a shitload of work, and take lots of consideration and care.
Yeah, I know. So far I’ve been able to put it off, particularly with what you do with them when they stop laying. But every time we go to the grocery store and the price goes up another 50¢/dz, it comes right back up.
And by leave in the yard, build (buy) a coop, fencing and herd them into it every night.
And they’ll eat all of the bugs in the yard. Won’t have any left with those guys out there,
🤦♂️
Chickens are marginal at controlling bugs. At best. Guineas are the real deal in that department, and I can promise you don’t want those, and your neighbors will hate you if you’re not way out in the country.
Coops are expensive. Feed has shot up 50% in the last year. If you want enough eggs to always have eggs available, you need at least 6, which means bigger coop, more feed, etc.
It really isn’t a way to get cheaper eggs. The best you can hope for is to raise a shitload of chickens, and sell the excess eggs which might help you break even in feed, but a backyard chicken pen will never be profitable. You really have to want chickens for their real benefits. They’re entertaining, and can teach responsibility. Fresh eggs are awesome. But they’re an expense, and take a shitload of work to keep adequately. They also destroy yards and gardens. If you have a small backyard, you will have a dirt lot in mere weeks. If you have any sort of garden, they will dig shit up.
I’ve never culled a hen when she’s become unproductive. They wouldn’t be good to eat by that age, and straight up killing a chicken you’ve had for a long time and formed a bond with at one level or another isn’t something I’d even entertain. They just become freeloaders until they die, or they’re taken by a predator.
I have always raised ducks rather than chickens. Ducks are much hardier than chickens (no coop, cold tolerant, disease tolerant) and to many lay the superior egg. That said, the predators like them just the same

Greene’s remarks ran nearly an hour and touched on topics dear to her far-right fans: claims about the 2020 election being “stolen,” sympathy for those arrested in the attack on the U.S. Capitol, and her opposition to vaccine mandates.
She then insisted that Democrats in Washington have abandoned God and truth — specifically, the “sword” of biblical truth, which she said “will hurt you.”
The room of partisans applauded throughout, sometimes shouting “Amen!”
The event may be the closest thing yet to Greene’s vision for the GOP, which she has urged to become the “party of Christian nationalism.” The Idaho Panhandle’s especially fervent embrace of the ideology may explain why Greene, who has sold T-shirts reading “Proud Christian Nationalist,” traveled more than 2,300 miles to a county with fewer than 67,000 Republican voters to talk about biblical truth: Amid ongoing national debate over Christian nationalism, North Idaho offers a window at what actually trying to manifest a right-wing vision for a Christian America can look like — and the power it can wield in state politics.

Not gonna lie, I’m looking at bottom-of-the-barrel properties, and I pay attention to area racial demographics and cross-reference crime statistics aggregator sites. I don’t judge individuals by their race, but I also don’t ignore statistical reality. As a white guy in an economically depressed area my odds of being a crime victim, particularly a violent crime victim, are worse in a black neighborhood. We can navel gaze for years about the precise reason for that, but I’m not so nobly committed to colorblindness that I’m going to stake my physical wellbeing on it.

I hope the head of NTSB holds her ground and remains apolitical as a whole. DOT and WH want the train derailment as a talking point against deregulation but she has held ground that no regulation could have prevented this. It wad an accident
“Oh!” say the regulators… “A CHALLENGE!”
Pretty sure if you regulated trains like nuclear power (to the point where you can’t afford to run them), this wouldn’t have happened! 😉
The NTSB is a strange creature. They’ve always been a little independent-minded.
My flight instructor was an inspector for them and I can honestly say that nobody was ever going to tell him what or how to think about an incident.
For the most part they are. Field employees away from the rot of Washington tend to actually just want to do their jobs without political interests getting in the way
Whereas everyone around DC starts from the political interests and works their way out from that.
And tying back to Don’s comment – they are drawn from that 40% of America [with no familiarity at all with intellectual honesty].
I listened to a really strange interview with Chelsea Handler a few years ago on NPR. Didn’t really know anything about her at the time, other than her propensity for idiotic, shock-jock type comments that got press coverage.
Anyways, the interview was about her newly released memoir. She had just spent a year of self actualization, where she realized that life isn’t all about just her and Trump supporters were people too. That took about 5 minutes. Then she spent the rest of the hour talking about herself. Neither Chelsea or the host seemed to be aware of the irony at the end of the interview. I thought she came across as a dim bulb., but what do I know.
Well, I mean, the intervoew WAS about her, so…
In the interview in Moscow, Wilson also played down his church’s publicly stated intention to make the place a “Christian town,” insisting the effort was more about “evangelism and service” than a “hostile takeover.”
I find it odd that this writer fails to mention the presence of the University of Idaho in Moscow. It may just have escaped his notice, but the presence of liberal activism in town is not inconceivable.
Never mind the hostile takeovers of a whole bunch of cities and states thanks to Californication.
Recently watched the 2022 Netflix adaptation of All Quiet on the Western Front. I’ve never seen the previous adaptations nor read the book, but it’s about as good an anti war movie you can get.

Not hard to do that considering the source material.
I haven’t seen the new version but the 1930 version is quite good. Lew Ayres, one of the movie’s stars, would go on to get into some difficulty for his pacifist stance after Pearl Harbor, but he wound up serving with distinction as a medic.

What, exactly, do you do all day?
The National Transportation Safety Board has released a preliminary report about the accident, and will investigate more over the coming months. But in a press conference Thursday, NTSB chair Jennifer Homendy said that while there was no evidence the crew “did anything wrong,” she called the derailment “100% preventable.”
Rail workers and union leaders tell Fortune the Ohio derailment is only the latest extreme example of the kind of train accident constantly taking place across the U.S. And they say it’s the result of years of underinvestment, cost-cutting, and pushback against safety protocols in an industry controlled by just a few major companies.
“The industry needs to be brought back under control,” Michael Paul Lindsey, a locomotive engineer and member of Railroad Workers United, a group representing workers from different unions, told Fortune. “We have problems with these massive long trains everywhere along the way, and companies are insistent that it has to work, even if we cut corners doing it.”
——-
“It is difficult to have confidence that the railroads will invest money and implement safety protocols that will ensure the safety of the public and their employees, because they are always reluctant to do so when cost is their primary concern,” Clark Ballew, director of communications at the Brotherhood of Maintenance of Way Employes, a rail worker union, told Fortune.
In 2014, the Obama administration began pushing for tighter rail safety regulations. These included requiring trains carrying large amounts of hazardous materials being fitted with extra locks on cars and electronically controlled pneumatic brakes (ECP) to replace the Civil War–era braking systems most trains still use. The ECP system applies brakes to all train cars simultaneously, instead of a gradual car-by-car braking system.
Rules and regulations mean fuck all if the people being paid to perform maintenance on the equipment don’t do their jobs.
I’m going to go out on a limb and guess that America throws more money at this stuff than anywhere else and gets less in return* than any other “western” country.
*union-flack Carribean vacations don’t count
…in an industry controlled by federal regulators and served by just a few major companies.
Fixing the edit failure.
A 2015 NTSB study found that ECP brakes “out-performed” other forms of braking. Meanwhile, a 2023 study by the Association of American Railroads, a trade group representing rail companies, found that implementing ECP brakes “would not provide a meaningful safety benefit.” A 2017 review by the National Academy of Sciences based on a modeling test by the Department of Transportation was “unable to make a conclusive statement” on the performance of ECP brakes compared to other systems, while criticizing the DOT’s modeling methodology.
“Having [ECP brakes] may not have prevented the derailment, but in my opinion it would have severely reduced its impact. It wouldn’t have been as bad,” Gabe Christenson, a railroad conductor and cochair of Railroad Workers United, told Fortune about the Ohio derailment.
Opinions are like assholes. Everybody’s got one.
I thought the decision to burn the chemicals is what made this worse, not the derailment.
And people with an ostomy bag have more than one.
And they all stink,
Good morning Glibbies
Yeah, initiating a financial burden on an industry because of an opinion that doesn’t seem to be backed up by evidence is bullshit, in my opinion at least.
I can’t even imagine how much it would cost to implement those fancy brakes. Tens of billions? Hundreds?
I’m sure some smart person in government figured this out before going on about it to the media, right?
Yes and that smart person had already bought stock in the company that manufactures the ECP brakes!
The current focus of the NTSB investigation is on an overheated wheel bearing on Norfolk Southern’s train, which was seen to be covered with sparks or flames in a security camera recording in Salem, Ohio, before the derailment. Norfolk Southern relies on detectors known as hot boxes installed alongside its railroads to monitor temperatures as trains pass and alert train staff of any abnormalities and risks. Lindsey said the failure to do so in the 20 miles between Salem and where the train derailed raises questions about the detectors’ reliability.
Three hot boxes detected the wheel bearing warming before the derailment, according to the NTSB’s preliminary report, although only one of them picked up a temperature high enough to trigger an alarm for the train’s staff. It only did so right before the train derailed.
A Norfolk Southern spokesperson told Fortune the company is fully collaborating with the NTSB, but declined to comment any further during the agency’s ongoing investigation. CEO Alan Shaw said in an interview with the Wall Street Journal this week that the company will revise its safety procedures moving forward.
“It is clear that our safety culture and our investments in safety didn’t prevent this accident. We’re going to see how we could have prevented it when we get the NTSB results,” he said.
Reliability of sensors, or reliability of the people who are supposed to be monitoring them?
Would interesting to see what happened. The crew knows where they are and the defect detector automatically announces the results on the common radio frequency for the section and anyone can hear it. The ones around here report out something like “UPdetector milepost 608.2. Train speed 42 mph. No defects.” It’s really hard to miss and it’s be their asses if they don’t stop.
Woooooooooooooooooo!!!!
“Mmmm, you know you want some of that.”
No, I do not.
Agreed, she’s physically attractive for her age but the personality is repulsive in a way that seems desperate and sad.
For years many railroad companies, including Norfolk Southern, have operated on a business philosophy known as “precision scheduled railroading,” which focuses on maximizing efficiency with longer and heavier trains to cut costs and deliver more profits.
Advocates of the model say it helps improve productivity and lower costs for customers, while critics argue it overworks employees and trains’ long length and heavy load creates more risks of derailments. The Norfolk Southern train that derailed was 149 cars, or 1.9 miles long, according to a company spokesperson.
Stationary trains don’t make money. Stop the presses.

Are quads the biggest muscles? Anyway, I think they mean lift with you legs (which includes your ass) not rounding your back.
Glutes. But whatever. It’s dogshit advice. Stay out of your knees as much as humanly possible. They are a shitty design.
No, but you need to bend your knees to deadlift. Unless you are doing Romanian deadlifts, of course.
But the bigger problem, unions and other critics say, is that the rail industry has become far too consolidated and is failing to foster competition, allowing big companies to get away with cost-cutting measures.
Que?
They’re not really wrong, but rail is an industry that was created by monopoly power, and it’s not particularly suited to robust market competition. Which the unions don’t actually want anyway – consolidation has been driven in major part by exorbitant fixed costs that resulted from capitulating to union demands.
Hmm, railroad unions with their own special federal laws and regulations over and above what other unions have? Nah, that couldn’t have any impact.
Next thing you know those free-market madcaps will be causing consolidation in the airline industry!
Including their own stinkin’ federal retirement system. I mean, WTH???

Without going antisemitic, they could argue that signing bill to restrict free speech while visiting a foreign country is a bad look.
I can’t say I take too kindly to DeSantis agreeing to restrict free speech of his own citizens in service to Israel myself. He deserves any criticism he gets for that.
Seems fairly anodyne to me. The pandering is unseemly.

rail is an industry that was created by monopoly power, and it’s not particularly suited to robust market competition.
The notion that increased competition would somehow or other NOT result in cost cutting is… rather unique.
Absolutely, I only meant they were right about overconsolidation.
Hence why they desperately want to expand it. DC hates competitive markets.
How would railroads compete–build parallel tracks?
I have no idea how they do it at Norfolk Southern, or BNSF, but if you jack up your trailer and give the wheels a spin, a bearing on its way out will tell you, via an audible rumble.
Lets’ say to replicate that process with a railroad undercarriage you jack it up, put some sort of drive mechanism in contact with the wheel and spin it; vibration and temperature sensors placed in contact with the hub should tell you what you need to know, once you have established a baseline.

Not rational
U.S. President Joe Biden told ABC News in an interview on Friday that the idea China would be negotiating the outcome of the Ukraine war was not rational, following the release of Beijing’s peace plan for the conflict.
“(Russian President Vladimir) Putin’s applauding it, so how could it be any good?” Biden told ABC News on the one-year anniversary of the war.
“I’ve seen nothing in the plan that would indicate that there is something that would be beneficial to anyone other than Russia, if the Chinese plan were followed.”
“The idea that China is going to be negotiating the outcome of a war that’s a totally unjust war for Ukraine is just not rational.”
China’s plan urges both sides to agree to a gradual de-escalation and warns against the use of nuclear weapons.
The last thing in the world we want is de-escalation. Where’s the profit in that?
“(Russian President Vladimir) Putin’s applauding it, so how could it be any good?” Biden told ABC News on the one-year anniversary of the war.”
OK, love it, hate it, indifferent to it, or whatever but that argument against it is beyond stupid and the guy making it is the Pres…Jesus Christ…
The ad hominem argument reigns supreme.
Or is it the appeal to authority? Or maybe the straw man? Dammit…. so many choices these days.
Putin also loves his mother I would assume and he probably enjoys drinking fluids and eating food. Maybe Biden can talk shit about those too.
We’ll know the answer for sure if Donald announces his support.
“Biden’s applauding it, so how could it be any good?” sums up the view of a lot of people here on Ukraine.

True (mostly). Ribs with nothing but a tasty spice rub are excellent.
