Lol lmao. The right to the fruit of something is literally one of the kinds of Roman property law that informs European ideas of property rights.

Fruit trees are mostly just expensive to grow vs other kinds and can be unappealing if fruit spoils or attracts other animals. E.g. you probably wouldn’t want to play on the grass underneath an orange tree on all the little bits of orange after possums have at it.

chemists live longer because all the poisons are fighting each other.

my garage, the old fence, and a good chunk of my house is asbestos.

They’ve been standing 60 years and you wouldn’t know it.

Damn shame we can’t use the material. Proof god hates us.

you can criticise the world without resorting to past = bad which often hides things we have lost.

Also oats are nutritious, delicious, and efficient.

How about pointing out how hard you work to afford food that is often thrown out lest it undermine keeping you slaved to “the economy” etc.

No actually I’m not done. Wanting fewer material things is good actually. Opulence need not manifest in terms of the aquisition of territory and things. What if you have a tiny home and breakfast gruel but you get idle time, community, gorgeous views, freedom etc.

the problems with society aren’t that you can’t eat figs every meal and stroll around your estate, it’s that mere subsitence demands your soul.

Programmers hate everything. You could design a spec which serenades you with angel song and feeds you chocolate dipped grapes and someone would be like: This is awful, my usecase is being a dog.

Sigh. There’s so much actually interesting in piecing together the past. Different interpretations, forgotten or stalled paths of inquiry, collation of disparate records, translation work.

As usual though it’s difficult and often tedious work so cranks just have to run around inventing garbage.

The actual history of agriculture is nuanced and extensive. Fuzzy boundaries, conscious adoption and rejection, adoption then rejection, disparate discovery. Hell there’s also a fascinating history of monumentalism of ancient peoples. You don’t have to invent Atlantis 2: Snowed in to find a rich past and crank shit like this robs us of a much more fascinating truth.

It’s quite simple. One die can shape many blanks but each time a workpiece goes through a die it is drawn down and loses some mass.

Repeated cold working also tends to embrittle the workpiece, so without extensive annealing (foreplay) a penis will become brittle and snap off.

Personally I find it pretty neat that as megafauna we are host to entire little ecosystems. It’s a calming thought to imagine yourself like some large tree, home to little families of various creatures, bacterial and fungal colonies growing on you. We are thoroughly integrated into the ecosystems in which we live.

They’re not harmful, they’re just living their mitey little life.

He also went full reactionary sexist and homophobe. Plus bombed random people like a guy selling computers.

I really dislike the way he’s venerated by some. There are actual revolutionaries with cohesive ideologies that properly critique society and direct anger at systemic problems. This guy was just mad things were changing.

Oh look. Liberals aligning with facists over paying taxes. Waow. I am so shocked.
