  1. During the rainy (flood) season we open one of our higher fields to local people who keep cows and so have in exchange a good supply of cow dung which I compost for 12 months before use. But I don’t think it has the necessary trace elements, the cows can’t add elements that aren’t available to them. I’ve found a foliage fertilizer that has the trace elements I’m looking for but don’t want to spray with the risks of inhaling. If I can’t find an alternative I’ll use this by applying to the irrigation system. It is soluble and I could make an inductor to mix it into the irrigation lines downstream of the pumps.
  2. Putting aside your wit, it is entirely logical that growth hormones fed to the food people eat wind up in people. The accelerated physical maturing of children is a fact. Physical maturity and brain/emotional maturity are not the same thing.
  3. But also, modern food production includes the widespread use of growth hormones that accelerate the maturing of live stock used in the food chain.
  4. There’s something else interesting going on. Puberty suppression drugs are becoming more widely prescribed as the onset of puberty in both boys and girls has become significantly earlier in a what is historically very short period of time. There are also significant differences in hight gain, visible here in Thailand were teenagers are commonly head and shoulders taller than their parents, a generational change. These are society wide changes across multiple populations and epidemiology 101; when society wide health changes are seen, look for society wide causes. I wonder if the dysmorphia and other related psychological difficulties children are increasingly exhibiting are anything to do with this generational change in children developing adult bodies way earlier than brain and emotional development?
  5. They’d have a moral outrage fuzzy fit when the audience starts shouting ‘behind you’.
  6. My bet is Liz Cheney will split the Republican vote, Trump is running on fumes.
  7. What you seem not to know is the J6 hearings have nothing at all to do with the multiple Federal and State criminal investigations in which Trump is the target.
  8. In fairness to your ‘American, White, (mainly but not exclusively Non-Hetero) Liberals’, there are recognizable political maneuvers that are characteristic of fascism and Nazism: http://www-personal.umich.edu/~rsc/Editorials/fascism.html There is absolutely nothing wrong with calling these out when they appear in political speeches at national political conferences.
  9. Elected members of the GOP have stated they wish to be referred to as ‘Ultra MAGA’. https://www.aclu.org/legislative-attacks-on-lgbtq-rights
  10. That’s not old fashioned, it’s the view of the vast majority of people regardless of where they are in the political spectrum. It’s also such a tiny minority case that it is not in anyway representative of transgender issues.
  11. And yet here we have an example of a rightwing politician grandstanding the issue at a national rightwing political conference. Go figure.
  12. Allegedly…. Not wise to double down on a behavior that has been spotted.
  13. So not the dress that’s allegedly broken any ethics rules. I’m sure ‘the attention’ is merely a distraction from her work representing the people of her district. Being an intelligent and outspoken woman I’m sure she’s accustomed to the accusations of being ‘attention seeking’, it’s all part of that predictable reaction some men have to intelligent, out spoken women; I believe I’ve mentioned it in the past.
  14. Her brother is on the lam too, cowardice seems to be a family trait.
  15. Make that two more goose steps towards fascism.
  16. The dress didn’t break any ethics rules.
  17. There’s a great deal more to denying citizens the right to vote than applying ID requirements. Times and days of voter station opening. Number and location of voter stations. Under staffing of voter stations. Intimidation of voters queuing at voter stations. The list goes on.
  18. I’d leave brains out of it. Moral crusaders don’t do brains.
