Axe-a-lot-ls* 😉

I’m not starting, I’ve always been gardening.

Anyone have good/active community suggestions?

Unless you have unlimited wealth I wouldn’t go with a horse unless you can board it yourself. Otherwise you’re just leasing and will miss out on most of the bonding that makes up a large part of the horse relationship. It’s all the cost and then some for a third of the reward.

Oh yeah that’s frustrating.

At least the one I posted is easy to identify. (Dude I Got Some Fucking Banana Bread At Work Today…)

For those that don’t get it… it’s copypasta meme from that banana bread rant

They stick their faces in muck water and suck everything up while looking for food. Ducks can eat a lot of things.

We had pekin and they figured out a good food hack. We fed the flocks using gutters (then everyone can feed without fighting for space). But the pekins would straddle the gutter, stick their head in the feed with mouth open, and then flap forward and kick their feet to ‘ride’ the gutter and scoop up as much food as possible. It was highly effective.

They ate 10x more than a regular duck and were 5x louder and always involved with any shenanigans going down. Fuck Pekin ducks.

Not OP but totally sounds real.

Ducks are like that for sure. They will certainly claim a spot. And eggs just kinda come out the egg hole sometimes. Especially if they aren’t able to secure a nest to lay on a schedule.

I’ve seen eggs roll out while they are running past to get to their pond.

I LOVE IT

Do the bots at least use AI to chat? Because that’s going to be better than the one word answers I get from the real people.

A good bug net and a tarp are going to be just as effective as a modern tent, and breathe better.

No. Maybe better than a cheap tent from Walmart.

Don’t buy cheap tents or sleeping bags and take care of them.

Work is hard. I’ve worked for souless corporations, it’s hard not to. Sometimes you just have to be servant class and have no other option. Just be sure that you are taking money from them without giving them any excess effort. You can always work towards other opportunities. If you want to do something else, learn to do it. You can learn so many things for free. I just recently accepted a new position with a local company that shares my values. Most of the skills that got me there were things I learned on my own over the last decade. I didn’t go to school for this, nor do I have any directly comparable job experience. Before my last corporate hustle I had a long term job with a local non-profit for many years. I also did not start that position by having the necessary experience. Don’t lose hope, there are always better opportunities in the future.

I control how I spend my money. If I don’t like a company or product I don’t give them any money. Sometimes that means I spend more elsewhere. Sometimes I just have to give up something. I do allow for guilty pleasures occasionally (chocolate).

My grocery bill is minimal because I don’t eat meat, I don’t eat a lot of processed food and I don’t over-eat. I also grow a lot of food (this time of year half or more of my meal ingredients come out of the garden).

The most important thing about HOW I LIVE LIKE THIS?

I don’t judge other people who can’t.

It requires some sacrifice and not everyone can handle that. But I do encourage everyone to try, even a little. If every single person put in effort to be 10% “better” the world would be much better.

I go to sleep at 1 (plus socks, beanie, and sometimes a hoodie)

I wake up at 20

Sometimes I wake up warm and strip a layer or two off. But I’ve been like this my whole life so I usually don’t even wake up when clothes start coming off.

I don’t sleep-walk, I sleep-strip.

And I’m VERY careful about where I fall asleep.

Using the app becomes obstruction or terrorism. People who do that will also get sent to camps.

It seems far fetched but it’s really not. After all, nobody would step to stop either of those things from happening.

It’s also a great name for a cover band.

Butt rock covers of gospel songs perhaps?

As a single guy who lived with a married couple, I can say it’s awesome and doesn’t have to be sex related.

It cut down on cost of living and made everything easier. A little awkward when they bicker and didn’t always enjoy playing the marriage counselor role. But overall it was great.

I think it also worked because sex wasn’t part of the relationship.

So many missed opportunities for O-bomb-a jokes

Everything is ‘2 weeks’. It’s the only time frame he gives. Probably read somewhere that the news cycle is only 2 weeks so he thinks everyone will forget by then. (They will.)
