  • YSK that radishes are fucking amazing. They contain vitamin C, improve blood pressure, and are full of Sulforaphene, a powerful anti-cancer substance. Radishes contain almost no calories

  • Ha! This is my advice to my pirate-crazed kids: Let's try hardtack for a week and I bet this broccoli would taste AMAZING!

  • BLM Says American Prairie's Bison Can No Longer Graze on Public Lands

  • Gotcha...misinterpreted your first comment! And hi, fellow Montanan!

  • BLM Says American Prairie's Bison Can No Longer Graze on Public Lands

  • While that is true, this is a different issue. American Prairie's mission is connect a bunch of land in central Montana and use it to restore short grass prairie ecosystems. Part of that goal is restoring native large grazers (bison) that were largely killed off in the 1800s. Bison were historically very abundant, and had a huge effect on shaping and maintaining prairie ecosystems. Today, technically, the bison are considered "livestock" with regard to BLM grazing, but American Prairie is trying to manage the bison as wild herds and restore their ecosystem function. And lobbying for updated classification for the bison, which are neither livestock but not truly "wildlife" yet.

    The pushback to American Prairie's mission is pretty political in MT, as you might imagine...

  • Can I summarize to clarify your point? Fun runs haven't solved breast cancer, so it's probably best to give up on humanity? Is that accurate?

    If you want cheap and weight/performance's not an issue, do you have a community bike shop in your area, or some other option for salvaging used bike parts?

  • What's your method of enjoying (or at least tolerating) physical exercise?

    Jump

  • I've always loved sports; so that part's easy, personally. But I've also learned to kind of savor the feeling of using my muscles and getting tired. Whatever I'm doing, or even on days where I didn't have time to "exercise", I make a point to check in on different parts of my body, maybe tense them or stretch; just trying to notice what feels good and then really savor that feeling. I find that building that mental practice helps motivate me to seek out exercise, or power through when I'm not really enjoying a particular activity.

  • Cool story, bro. How do you propose to do that? You got a magic wand? How many of those ballot initiatives failed this time around?

  • Some level of election reform will be on the ballot in 9 states this fall. Make sure you vote, if you can!

    Also worth noting that these efforts are generally led mainly by democrats, with support from some moderate republicans. In contrast, 10 republican-led state legistatures have passed outright bans on RCV. One of these parties is not like the other!

  • 17% of the US's Infrastructure & Jobs Act goes to transit. 67% goes to conventional highway programs

  • Hey fellow Montanan! Check out Big Sky Rail Authority's arguments for implementing a southern passanger rail service, or think of the benefits of increased bus service connecting the larger Montana cities. We have main travel corridors across the state that could be greatly improved by a public transportation network, linking rural communities and connecting them to larger city centers. Combine that with local bus service, walkable communities, and biking infrastructure in places where it can be supported like Missoula, Bozeman, Billings, etc can improve traffic and livability of the towns. Also, think of the improvement to traffic conditions for people coming into town from surrounding rural communities if you can divert a good portion of traffic to public options. In a rural state like ours, there's always going to be some need for personal vehicles, but there's still lots of places where having more public transportation options could improve our communities and lessen our climate impacts. Sure, it's going to look different than in other parts of the country, but still a lot of room for improvement around here.

  • Didn't see the NPR article, but this absolutely rings true to me. I live in a blue city in a red state. We were littered by Green Party ads for the primaries that were funded by right wing groups. I wouldn't say that the far left and far right are working together, but the right is for sure posing as leftist in local outlets and actively encouranging the left's tendency to eat their own.
