Thanks for the tip. I'm trying to cut down on my meat consumption so beans are a great protein alternative. My late Mom told me to never season the beans with salt until after they've softened as the sodium will draw out any moisture in the beans. I'll give the baking soda trick a try 👍

I'm currently working on my attic. I had vermiculite in there. For the safety of my family and their long term health I got it removed. Since then, I have been going up there weekly air sealing, insulating pipes, adding baffles and metal mesh to gable vents to keep out squirrels. Next I have to build up hatch and blow in the cellulose. Got 60 bags stored in my garage right now and have machine reserved for later this week. It's honestly so much work I want to puke. Some days after getting down from there i do puke. But I know in the end it'll be worth it cause I actually care about the project and what it adds to the house.

I am not american and even I feel like you are beating around the bush. You don't want boycott Tractor Supply because it is convenient for you, here you try to rationalize this scandal and you talk about "forgiveness". No madam, even from a religious point of view, this is wrong, Jesus Christ never indulged in sin, he talked about love and redemption, but he never supported sinners, he never helped manipulators and predators. What he taught is the opposite of hedonism, debauchery and pride. You know the truth, and It is up to you, are you supporting sinners? When you do nothing you are not safe, you are allowing the evil.

Jesus said, let ye who is without sin cast the first stone. He said go and sin no more. I have several videos showing I shop at a local feed store. Are you "allowing the evil" when you use Google and KZfaq when they give millions per year to the cause? Y'all turn a blind eye to them. I wonder why that is? Rhetorical question of course. Regardless, this hate brings no one to Christ. I will stick to love and kindness.

2 Corinthians 10:5 "Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;" As Christians, we do this in love, but we are called to take a stand. Unfortunately, loss of revenue is the only thing corporations pay attention to. If you want to be concerned about the employees, consider all the employees that are subjected to trainings and policies where these views are shoved down their throat. So, I will not be spending my money at Tractor Supply.

"Onward Christian soldiers, I guess. You know you live by the sword and you die by the sword. And maybe we should show these people love and kindness." Show love and kindness and fund a company that uses the money to fund groups of people marching naked in public and chanting "we're here, we're qu33r, we're coming for your children", no thank you! Benny Johnson just posted a video of Conservatives who have done deep dives into tractor supply and exposed how woke they really are. It was posted today, June 23, 2024. There is video and photo evidence in the video. I am not here to get Benny clicks, just to shed more light on this issue. "Let your light from the lighthouse shine on me." Didn't want to post a video in the comments, but Benny's video is titled "Tractor Supply Customers FURIOUS After Extreme Woke Left Activism EXPOSED: 'NEVER Shop Here Again'"

Most of Y'all don't shop at tractor supply to begin with. You don't raise animals. You can dispose of what you don't need.

Ok, so I'm going to try this. I have pressure canned milk 3 times now, following what everyone else does, and it failed each time. Best I got out of that was 3 months of shelf time. The milk turned an almond color the first time (lasted 4 months); turned a darker color, separated, and smelled not so great for the 2nd & 3rd tries. Honestly, I think a pressure canner cooks the milk far too long. I thought about shutting it off after 10 minutes of steam, but haven't tried that option yet. Water bathing just seems to make more sense - milk is far more sensitive than sour cream and whipped cream. I did sour cream and whipped cream in a pressure canner (same process as milk) and it turned out great - so far have 10 months on those and they are perfect. Loved watching your video - you have such a fun, real down to earth disposition! Thanks again.

In the USA, people have freedom to choose their own lifestyle. As a heterosexual I don't go around with signs and flags telling everyone that fact. Let's keep our sexual preferences private. Most people aren't interested in anyones sexual preference, and to children it's really confusing. Companies that promote ,out of the norm, lifestyles are going to upset the others and perhaps suffer the consequences. Maybe they should remain neutral, and just provide products and services.

Since nobody is forcing anybody to bring their kids to any Pride event this is a reasonable take. It seems you do have a basic understanding that Drag is not Burlesque. The fact that you will not take your children to a beach or public pool where women may be in revealing swimsuits shows a consistency that others don't seem to have. It's beyond time to accept the fact that queer Americans are not going back into the closet no matter how many hateful people try to force them to. Since these companies understand that they have LGBTQ+ employees and costumers they will continue to be inclusive and you are right, if people boycotted every company that supports people they despise then those people would soon find they are boycotting everything.

Baking soda breaks down the pectin in the beans which helps them to soften enough to eat. If you ever try to cook beans that are 5,10,20 years old, you can cook them for days and they never get soft enough to eat. You rinse the baking soda off before cooking. It's just for the soaking phase.
