I care a lot about corn. This is the second year of a record bad series of corn disasters that mostly gets niche coverage. Images follow a timeline from the 2019 planting in the Midwest being delayed two months by unprecedented rain through the Midwest, odd weather patterns stunting the development, then snow halting the harvest halfway and forcing farmers to salvage what they could with propane dryers. This year saw a terrifying storm flatten half the feilds in Iowa. It's not going well for weather in the areas that produce the largest crop in the US.

"Boys, ... I'm going to tell them to bring the ballot box out of there, and if they don't we're gonna open up on them.' I hollered in there, I said, 'You damn thieve grabbers, bring them damn ballot boxes out of there.' 'That's just what I said. He didn't make a move down there and finally one of them said, 'By God I heard a bolt click.' Down there—one of them grabbers did, you know—they started scattering around. And I had a pistol in my belt with a shotgun. I had a shotgun and a rifle. And I pulled the pistol out and started firing down there at them. Well, when I did that, all that whole line up there started firing down there in there. A lot of them got in the jail, some of them didn't, some of them got shot laying outside."
"We'd put two or three sticks of dynamite together and tape it together and put a cap in there and a fuse. And we'd rear back and throw them"
"That first bomb landed under Bob Dunn's cruiser, flipping it on its back."

I think dandelion greens are pretty tasty but I like bitter greens. Also great for teas, wines, and tinctures.
It's amazing to me that people will buy dandelion greens and teas in a supermarket but will put tons of chemicals down to get them out of there yards and lawns 🥴
