Some video of the damage from the STL tornado last Friday.

Many streets are passable now, but there is still no power in a lot of areas.

The alleged reason that the sirens were not set off is because no one decided to. Anyone paying attention by looking out of their window would have realized it was bad.

Re: The tornado path in #StLouis Missouri so-called USA. #STL is a very racially segregated city, due to the history of chattel slavery during and post-Indigenous genocide and westward expansion of the settler state. These neighborhoods that the tornado hit are mostly Black and very materially neglected and deprived by the systems that exist. The area is largely out of internet access now, as well.

All that to say. These communities are in a lot of need right now. People are missing, hurt, and without shelter and food. Here are some opportunities for #directaid:

I wanted to share this with the people here in Missouri and the Metro East. This is the farm we buy our milk, eggs and 50-60% of our meat from. I'm not going to say buying food here will save you money but you will find a quality superior to most grocery stores. Penguin, our stray cat we took in, will only eat egg yolks from this farm. We've even tried other pasture raised eggs, she won't touch them.

A business card from the farm we use. The name is Fed from the Farm.

Our trip to the beekeeping supply store was successful. Everything they sell is constructed locally by Mennonites and they're all super friendly and helpful so I enjoy going. I can ask as many questions as I want and they never seem to get tired of educating me. We got two slatted rack and two vented inner covers to help combat the heat and humidity we have here in Missouri. They still need paint.

I hope you all had a nice Hump Day and a great rest of your evening!

Two unfinished slatted rack and vented inner covers for 8 frame beehives. The aid in helping the bees keep their hive ventilated.

ThingiverseOrganiser for those cleaning swabs you get in bulk from China OR USED TO by solarbirdThis is an organiser box with seven compartments of difference sizes and depths to sort cleaning swabs, the kind you get in bulk packages from sellers in China. The compartment heights are variable so that swabs are always at easy reach, as opposed to being stuck down in some well. It also has a lid you can print if you like to keep out dust.The rearmost compartment is the deepest but also very thin, because it's for lens cleaning tissues and stuff like that. The two largest are the two deepest; they were originally one compartment but then all the big swabs just kept falling over, so it needed a divider to stop that from happening.
