@UncleIroh @37712 @Tfmonkey Indeed. If we didn't use corn silage and soybean meal to feed cattle to make meat as cheap as it is, instead feeding them grass, they'd be healthier.

For humanity to go to 100% grass-fed beef though, meat needs to double in price per unit of weight if not more. That is also being conservative because cattle require large amounts of acreage to raise exclusively on grass.

We won't move away from such corn, soy, and silage-heavy diets until there is no fuel at scale.

@UncleIroh This is another reason to not live in cities.

@Shlomo Oof

@RoninGrey Thanks

@RoninGrey Which ones have you used thus far that work?

@Pain66 No.

@Pain66 The father of the daughter shouldn't have let them be together unchaperoned. That would have avoided the whole situation. He also should have explained to the boy why he was angry, and smacked his daughter for disobeying as well. The argument can't be made that the boy is the responsible one and thus worthy of a punch in the nose because neither of them are of age--worthy of being kicked out, sure. Marriage and romance should never be about feelings. It is about family.

@BiggusDiccus Another resurrected has-been idea to impose a system upon the human mind which has no bearing on reality except what people make of it themselves.

@Shlomo Good luck house hunting.

@shortstories @ButtWorldsMan When in doubt, it does.

@ButtWorldsMan @Zeb Indeed. Indeed.

@ButtWorldsMan @Mongoliaboo "Are you tired of being a frustrated white person?"

@UncleIroh I appreciate Shinto as well. It has given me a valuable perspective from which to draw.

@ButtWorldsMan I too enjoy mocking communists!

@UncleIroh To this point, I've been considering what is required for this type of attitude to surface in a family. I believe it must come from first a strong male figure from which emanates this kind of reassurance, whether that figure is a female's father, husband, social leader etc. Where males lead whether in action, attitude, or intention, there females follow, whether that is to weakness or to nobility. I'm certain there exist other factors, but this is my first inclination.

@Pain66 "Under 12" Yep. That checks out. An article written about girls being better than boys in the one timeframe that they begin to have a developmental advantage.

It's not relevant though. An article in "The Female Quotient" means as much to the course of human events as the opinion of a tenant farmer near Londinium during the Crisis of the Third Century.

@Stahesh An accurate description of selling to the lowest common denominator.

@Tfmonkey Nice!

@UncleIroh 😄 Very funny.

@YoMomz Yes. Something is on the way.
