I often think we should be born without thumbs, and we only get issued them when we have learned not to mess with things we shouldn't. There would be some people who never get thumbs! Simple.
Regarding money as a claim -- I like the direction of this thinking -- but really it’s the bird IN HAND that makes the soup and not the birds in the bushes -- no matter the claiming frenzy.
Proud Holobiont - may your subsidiaries of beneficence be strengthened in their community service to the Central Sun of John and blessed memories of His Holo Holiness.
I've been reading on lactobacillus reuteri recently. Seems to be quite the star among the many benevolent lactobacilli. It can drive helicobacterium pylori out of its' hiding places in intestines. Among many other useful things.
I likw the finance vs. value line of thought. We truly are a civilization who know the price of everything and the value of nothing.
About cooking/heating: in colder climates wood is fairly easily available. In India they have used cow manure blended with dry stuff like choppped straw to make fuel bricks to burn. Dried in the sun. Coconut is also a fruit that has a hard shell that can be used as fuel. But thinking about ones' life from the perspective of the larger ecosystem definitely makes a difference. Animal poop was a much-needed fertilizer before the npk-stuff. Human presence used to enrich the ecosystem, now it mostly depletes it. But a different approach is possible. Thank you very much for your giving us readers food for new, different thoughts. And sending support for your quick recovery from a system reset by a virus or whatever it is.
Jews destroy not only Palestinians, but also Ukrainians. They want two countries for themselves. Israel and Khazaria. One is not on the territory of Palestine, the other on the territory of Ukraine
Stop calling Khazaria Ukraine. Since 2014, Kyiv has been the capital of Khazaria. At that time, only Crimea, Donbass and Lugansk remained from Ukraine. The Ukrainian-Khazar War began. Khazar policemen fought with Ukrainian partisans. On my LiveJournal blog: “mishin05.livejournal.com” everything is described in detail

With all these Invaders... pardon me... Immigrants...
Why don't we make use of them?
With so much lazy power at hand we can build inland seas in the Sahara and Australian Deserts respectively feeding Billions of people and helping Earth to recover geologically.
We raise Groundwater levels and create lush Gardens where now are deserts.
This Idea of mine is... oh 30 years old and more.
Still stands
Water as Energy is oh 44 years old... still stands.
The problem creators on top of our society are the problem.
They stand in the way.
I present solutions for over 40 years.
So the problem creators must go.
My Solutions which i openly present stand the test of times.
That study shows that really the only place on earth where things are still getting much worse is eastern Brazil, a known country where slash n burn ranchers have been running amok for decades.
It's not a reason to be complacent, because criminal unlicensed logging is just the sort of thing you would expect cartels to make money from.
It is, however, a reason to remain grounded in reality rather than scream Armageddon.

There may already be a metaphysical version of that concept in play.
'Forests not only cool the planet, but also stabilise the climate.'
I consider Anastassia Makarieva's ideas worthy - BUT !
I started to turn Green late 1960s - early 1970s. And then the main
Australian political parties started to take notice of the movement.
I'm probably alone in remembering that in 1985 the Minister for
The Environment in the then national ('worker's-friend' party)
Australian Labour Party government insisted he would not listen
to anyone/group who linked 'sustainable' to the environment. For
him the discussion could only be about 'sustainable economy' and
;sustainable development'...
He appropriated the word and used it to express Business As Usual...
Should there develop massive support for reafforestation, as the way
to head-off "climate change", it's certain the WEF/corporations, et al,
will hijack / appropriate it and use it to promote their 15 Minute cities -
the way They appropriated concerns about the environment to support
Business As Usual...Lock us all in 15 Minute Cities so the environment &
forests could recover !
They are not stupid. They listen to the masses. Then make the concerns
of the masses vehicles to get mass support for their Business As Usual
plans...
That said, we really do need more forests...
Commercial forests don't pull it off, and Anastassia explains why.
Old growth forest ecosystems, not monocultures perform this global ecosystem function.
She came to climate-science from Physics, like ... nobody except her mentor who was older and died. This was their project together.
Anastassia is a real hands-on human being with a big-old Russian Brain.
Man has she spent years in cold Siberian forests. Her husband is from Siberia.

Yes, this is the time to hold directly-useful assets, like a vegetable garden or bicycle with rack, for instance.
(Bankers always win when assets must be divvied-up.)

Thank You ... I presume.
:-o
For sure! Get well Dr John 💜
How encouraging!
And Johnny Rivers!!! In a suit and tie! Wonderful memory! I was 22.
Since we're telling, I was 8, and could ride a bicycle if I could borrow one.
Feel better soon!
Only tired, achy and bothered today.
I had some misery yesterday. Most Inconvenient!

John - if we go by 'greening the earth' studies, then the earth has been getting greener since 1980, whilst the Green Crisis Media Shrilling has been getting exponentially louder. https://wattsupwiththat.com/2024/01/30/new-study-2001-2020-global-greening-is-an-indisputable-fact-and-its-driven-by-co2-fertilization/ is but one example of studies showing that deforestation of the 20th century is being slowly but steadily reversed and that the higher levels of carbon dioxide aid this process occurring.
That study shows that really the only place on earth where things are still getting much worse is eastern Brazil, a known country where slash n burn ranchers have been running amok for decades.
