Remember when Evergreen blocked the Suez canal for 6 days?
Or when Covid caused logistic expense increase
What we haven’t seem to have learned is, that corporations will use any excuse to increase profits and make it sound reasonable. I won’t argue that their expenses haven’t increased, but the price increases are not equal to them. Also prices will rise dramatically but never fall as fast or at all
You keep saying this as if you’re the only one while live in a rural place. It seems like you do too but have no idea of what is going on in the fields around you. And this is the exact point of the comment. Fields look like nature but could as well be tarmac when it comes to biodiversity
Also it will probably fail with the first few tries and have you try different documents… Just to have as many copies of your personal ID as possible
It is the crops that kill diversity though. Baren fields may actually be better for wildlife
I live right next to two fields and in a village with 30 houses, surrounded by fields.
You just prove the point
Sounds like you think you know even more though?
Fields are made to only maintain life for what is grown on it. There is very little life there besides the plants. Biodiversity wise, they could as well be parking lots. They just look like nature, because, as you say, they are green.
Even that, takes nature away. Birds that naturally nest on flat ground, can’t breed there any more, because moderns crops grow faster than they can grow their chicks.
No - Fields are biodiversity deserts, and farmers want it like this. They look pretty and look like nature, but could as well be sand
Fields are just as dead as parking lots. Just prettier
The Labyrinth with David Bowie and the infamous bulge
You will be assimilated. Your biological and technological distinctiveness will be added to our own. Resistance is futile.
Also this prime example
Sounds like you are looking at the grass over the fence.
It’s always greener than on this side
Life demands efforts. It’s not like downloading and pressing play.
Its interesting that you find it hard to seek out the lifestyle that you want when that lifestyle will actually require a lot more effort just to survive
Why is he carrying a shield with the American flag?
I don’t know. It’s an authorized profession over here, and prices are regulated by the government.
Just a small adjustment to his stiff neck issue that he picked up a few months ago
This hits hard…
I woke up early today (without an alarm) because I had to bring my dog to a chiropractor at noon.
So I had a cup of coffee and a pipe, watching the morning dew dry up
It’s one of 3 days off this week, and that’s only because I sacrificed one additional day off to fake an extra shift on Friday. It pays double though, because of union regulations, even though I’d have taken it for regular pay anyway.
The only difference is, that I don’t have friends to meet up with, mostly because I don’t want to, and that I’m not in a drinking mode yet, but sounds like I could pick that up at some point
It’s more a question about using or abusing a smile:

I know that in some (many) cultures, the American “smile” can be unnerving
