I had not thought about the possibility of a connection between locust and the increasing popularity of no-till farming. As I understand it, tilling is one of the primary causes of the decrease in lo…

I would be so paranoid about sneezing.

I'm not necessarily advocating one way or another, just using an example to address the claim that while "The pardon doesn't do anything to address systemic problems in the justice syst…
