Yep. :(
Yep. :(
Got a laugh! OP, it’s been like this since I was a teenager, in the 80s.
Have a look at swarm theory. Absolutely fascinating and explains much animal behavior.
Reminds me of the original Battlestar Galactica in the end. They’re watching LA freeways and marveling over the incredible coordination on display. Nope. Swarm theory.
Hitler was spoken of the same way as Trump. Haven’t been able to find it again, but there was a 1930s op-ed about Hitler. If you published it today, everyone would assume you were talking about Trump.
I’m thinking you don’t understand how many acres it takes to feed a few people. I’d be scared shitless trying to feed my skinny family of 4 on a single acre, and that’s assuming a constant water supply.
OK, looked around a bit, yeah, we’d starve on 1 acre.
Bit of a strange post, but hey, OP learned a cool thing today. I use my Android when my home internet shits the bed. Super slow, but it works well enough.
Windows has (had?) the ability to share internet through Ethernet a couple of decades ago. I think it required a crossover cable? Anyone remember what I’m talking about?
EDIT: ChatGPT found it by inputting the above text. Internet Connection Sharing (ICS)! Gods it’s been a long time since I did that.
Similar to my ex-wife who grew up on well water with loads of minerals. She found tap water to be disgusting and said it tasted of chemicals. And everywhere I’ve lived in America, the tap water is indeed loaded with chemicals.
For anyone wanting a cool experiment to try: Turn your tap water on full blast and fill a cup. Immediately hover your nose directly above the water and take a deep smell. Now set that glass in the sun for an hour or three, or just leave it on the counter for a day, smell again.
For a longer term experiment: Water identical plants with a) only tap water, b) only rainwater. I catch rainwater and have found a profound improvement in my house plants and terrariums.
No lie. No matter the order of the stripes, you’re going to come out with someone’s flag.
The guys with Glocks? Agreed.

Had two girlfriends (in a row!) that hated turn signals because they kicked off their “repetitive noise disorder” (misophonia). My wife hates the regular motion of her windshield wipers, fucks with her head, uses them manually.
We can’t expect this many humans to play together nicely.
It was much the opposite! Yeah, we only had 3 or 4 news sources on TV, but they mostly said the same things. Being caught bullshitting, or having even a little bias, was unthinkable as trust was the only selling point as to what station you watched.
As to criticizing the government, catching politicians bullshitting was the national sport for journalists.
Bloom County was a great comic that covered American culture and politics from 1980-1989. You won’t get many of the references, but it’s a perfect snapshot of the 80s.
Gf and I were in college in 90 or 91 and another couple was simply amazed by us.
“You guys are so crazy! Whenever you want to learn about something you just go to the library and grab a bunch of books!”
Damned slick! Seems right on the money with my house, given variations for small landscaping changes.
Try 40 years ago. My dumbass sister was advocating for plastic bags, as if we were chopping down old growth forests for fucking paper.
Forestry is an awesome practice, and we’re damned good at it. I’d advocate for waxed paper in place of plastic.
No, the GOP hates it because it will cut into their poorest voters, big time, such a cut that Fox won’t be able to explain it away.
And where are we going to get this army of professionals?
Nah. People easily recognize my hillbilly roots.
Well, that works. But now I got ads again.
