Hello, friends! Today’s LIVE is being pushed to tomorrow, Friday, at 3m Pacific. I apologize for the change but I have a conflict today and need to bump it.

I’ll see you tomorrow at 3pm Pacific!

Thank you to the folks who alerted me that someone left an antisemitic comment on my most recent video. It was the first time I had ever seen this person, but I was able to see that they had left dozens of overt antisemitic comments, which I reported ...and then blocked them.

Anti-Zionism and antisemitism are not the same thing. Antisemitic comments, hate speech against Jewish people, will get you reported and blocked. Immediately.

A genocidal ethnostate run by a strongman is NOT synonymous with the Jewish people, and I will tolerate ZERO hate for Jews in any conversation, be it on a video about food crises or a convo about Israel's genocide of Palestinians.

Please vigorously report antisemitic comments.

This is all I’m gonna say on this for right now, although obviously I’m gonna continue to talk about the food crisis in the United States and globally.

If you cannot afford food, if you cannot access the food that is being grown, you functionally have a food shortage. Fascists want hungry people and they want to create artificial scarcity and they want to break food systems so that they can control us.

So it is up to us to not only restore democracy and get reforms and investigations and prosecutions. It’s also on us to create more stable food systems and feed our communities. Hyper-local short food chains are less vulnerable to manipulation by a kakistocracy.

It's ok to ask instead of assuming negative intent. Or assuming at all.

Also, the comments section on that (my latest) video is really thought-provoking and I appreciate the insight and perspectives on such a complex subject: labor, and the dignity or exploitation of workers.

Good evening, everybody. I was gonna spend some time in the cool of the night filming in my studio, but my neighbors are having a wonderful garden party and the music, while joyful, makes it impossible to film right now. So instead, I am going to make some late night, plum tarts from the abundance of my Stanley plum tree.

Also, aren’t these Dahlias my neighbor gave me absolutely lovely? I miss growing Dahlia. I think I will put some in next year.

I hope you all are having a wonderful Saturday night. I’ll be back in the morning. Take care.

Thank you to all of the folks who are letting me know that my YouTube thumbnails are uploading all wonky. I have not changed anything, but in the last two weeks, YouTube has made adjustments that mean that my thumbnails are not populating correctly no matter what size I try to paste them in at.

I am aware that it is a problem and I'm so grateful for your feedback. I am talking again to YouTube support today to try to figure out what's going on. I'm so sorry it's weird.
