  • My spouse and I bought 5 acres in rural Ohio. About 3 of it is wooded.

    We are actively converting the land back to wild prairie. We have tons of wildlife on our land, deer, rabbits, groundhogs, birds of all sorts, stink bugs (you take the bad with the good), and all sorts of creepy crawlers.

    We actively have worked though to rehabilitate the land. Started by seeding clover along with the grass to help with nitrogen and then are working with some people from our local library that help restore land back to its natural biodiversity. Not there yet but making progress after a year and a half.

    We let the leaves fall undisturbed to make breeding ground for insects and last summer as the days got long and hot we were treated with a brilliant light show of fireflies in the forest every night for a month or two.

    If you want to live in nature you can go to where it is or you can restore where you are.


  • It’s such a wild lie that for some reason we are all supposed to take seriously.

    We all work at companies, the executives aren’t doing anything earth shattering. Most executives seem to be running the playbook of “give the customer less and charge them more to increase profits”. Wow, what innovation!

    I would love for someone to be able to point out some concrete brilliant ideas that an executive actually had that went from “vague bullshit” to execution without getting worked and reworked and reworked by a bunch of normal employees until it was actually viable.

    Steve Jobs made the iPhone, oh by himself, did he design the chips and write the software? Sure the vision is great, but for every iPhone there are a thousand CEOs that basically keep the lights on an already functioning company and raise the price. Oversee a rebrand. Go on the news and talk up their company.

    And they’d have you believe that that’s worth 300-400x what a regular employee.

    That every day they are coming in and providing more benefit than a worker does in an entire year. It’s the most obvious bullshit we’ve ever been asked to swallow


  • This assassination attempt was almost definitely a false flag.

    Let’s, for sake of argument, say it wasn’t.

    The location has plenty of security, security that successfully stopped the gunman.

    In what world would this mean “obviously we need more security.” The security worked, it has enough funding, also the thing that protects the president is the secret service which is part of the department of the treasury, not DHS.

    So the secret service did their job and stopped a threat and for some reason that means we should give an unrelated part of the government more money.
