I hear you on just wanting what's best for your community, but checking out will only harm them further. Our communities need support now more than ever. I'm not trying to harp, either, I get it. I am demoralized as fuck these days, and honestly have little to zero hope for humanity in general. But even so, I won't be a part of letting these fucks just walk into office unopposed. Votes matter, and especially at the local level. Vote for the best candidates at all levels, every election. I am not even suggesting that means your choices must be for a democrat, vote independent if that's who the best option is. I live in a blue state, but my county historically leans red. What's promising is that even in this shit show of a situation, a couple postions that usually go red went to non-red people this time (yes, someone who ran without party affiliation won, AND they were running against a Republican). I hope my community can keep that trend moving. Nobody good is going to get through without support. Be there to support the people who have the guts to try to unfuck this mess.
Fungaia's video on pressure cookers may be very helpful to you! It doesn't go over the specifics for chicken manure, but goes over pressure cookers in general and is very informative. It also goes over lots of different types (instant pot/presto canner/etc) so you can choose the scale/price range that fits your goals. And besides the PC video, there's quite a few other diy cultivation videos to watch. Hope something there might be helpful c: Good luck, and mush love!
