"First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.'

Edmonton urban farmers relocate 400 trees in anticipation of move

Dustin Bajer has spent the past several years growing trees at the Edmonton Urban Farm, a large-scale community garden that allows hundreds of local green thumbs to produce their own food. Now, he needs to find new homes for 400 trees because the farm's current location is set for redevelopment, and a new site won’t be ready until 2026. CBC News caught up with Bajer and other urban farmers as they salvage what they can for the 2025 growing season.

Beautifully written like everything from Laurie Penny: https://observer.co.uk/news/first-person/article/laurie-penny-autism
‘I came out as autistic. Everyone said: That explains a lot’

An autism diagnosis helped Laurie Penny make sense of their experiences, but its real value was in helping them understand the rest of society

The Observer

The vibe shift in big tech is the culture of frugality and culling of “low performers” that differentiated Amazon from the rest is now the norm.

Many now operate under a palpable fear for their jobs which unfortunately makes their job performance worse and more susceptible to what they fear.
