Bro there is whole global warming thread in the speakers corner. I responded with a video to someone's video on a subject. I don't want to debate global warming with someone on a weed site. You are entitled to your opinion on any subject just don't expect me to give a funk.

Have a good night, nuff said.
Travis don’t give him the pleasure responding. That’s just what he wants.

Did you notice he didn't explain that last straight up-tick at the end?
We are over-do for an ice age! Once that Atlantic conveyor stops, Europe freezes, the glaciers advance and we're into the next cycle.
couple of links:
https://www.scientificamerican.com/...ic-ocean-loses-circulation-what-happens-next/

And it happens quickly, not 1 of decades, but a few years. Those records go back 10 times as long as ice samples.

Lets say it is warming up which may reverse,who knows? We have had 5 or 6 ice ages,is it safe to assume the reason for climate change is pollution? If so,why do they sell us products that last 1/10 of the time they used to? If it was so severe one would think they would make products that last a lifetime to offset the intensified pollution,instead we are sold products that barely suffice and some break before you get home from the store. They seem to support topping up the landfill sites and paying extra fees somehow is a solution. They play both angles,Musk builds EV's while the smoke comes out of his rockets. Ford scraps EV production and builds gas guzzling heavy duty trucks in that very EV plant.They don't care about the climate,they care about getting your money.
5-6 in the last 2.6 million years:

It's called 'planned obsolescence'. I have 2 electric knives, a blender, and a crock pot from my mom that work just fine like the electrolux. Manufacturers have a finance interest in you buying a new appliance every 5-7 years(if you're luck). My agitator washer SUX! and the dryer needs a water hook-up. And don't get me started on this 'glass-top' stove and crappy dish-washer. But they all match, so I've got that going for me.

Funny you mention vehicles. Toyota stopped with the v-8's and went with v6 turbos and they've sold like Edsels. I was gonna replace mine at 250K, but not now, I'll drive this 1 into the ground and get the newest Tundra with a CD player.
I LOVE EV's and salt water! And ya meet sure nice people at the charging stations. At least so I've heard. Not so many around here. It's funny(not funny 'haha'), but funny strange that EV's use more carbon than their fossil-fueled equivalent.

I could sell 30 dozen eggs a week if I had them. I have several ladies that buy four dozen a week. Mostly I see immigrants. Or second generation.
Most whites still won’t eat stuff unless it comes from the store. Baffling.
I’m lucky enough to get free eggs now and then from a neighbor. There are chicken all sizes and colors, duck and turkey eggs too sometimes. I’ve gotta say tho, those turkey eggs are crazy and I’ve only used them so far in dog treats don’t know why I’m afraid of them, they are beautiful and speckled.

Eggs taste like eggs. But the difference in size affects baking recipes.
I can scramble 6 quail eggs and you’d assume they were chicken eggs.
I give some to my grandma, but I am able to sell enough to break even on feed. If I add another flock of 10-14 hens I’ll be making a few dollars on the flocks.

Bird flu law only applies to birds not eggs right?
Yeah, but the Gov is forcing the culling of the entire flock if any birds test positive. And the tests are not 100%, just like the Covid tests. Imagine a false negative, in a bird that’s obviously healthy and you lose the entire flock. Chicken farmer will lose thousands of birds.
All for a disease that has not shown to jump from animal to humans.

I do,like to bake with the duck eggs. They are so much richer. And the yolks look so much nicer in home grown chicken eggs vs store bought. We eat a lot of eggs

Oh look at that. It’s beautiful old man. I think mine is gonna bloom soon too. Don’t know how long it takes but this stalk with buds on it has been growing for about three weeks now.
View attachment 19134941
I takes quite a while for the buds to open, can't say exactly but it's not quick. Once the pods start to open(separate) it goes fairly quickly. Nothing about the 2 orchids I have are fast in any way. The flowers last for months and months

Your orchid is looking healthy, buds are swelling up. I'll be looking forward to seeing it in bloom.

I had a mouse problem years ago, and occasionally an egg would be so orange it was like melted crayons. Then one day I saw a baby mouse dart across the coop and get eaten by a hen. 😂. Protein makes it oranger.

I have cats now. So no mouse problem. My cats have a tunnel dug to get into the coop network.

Right now it’s just for commercial farmers. Next step would be for people that are members of the NPIP. If they push it far enough, not sure how they would enforce it to the common pheasant.

not sure if they’ve had a case, but I heard they had one confirmed in north ga. All sale barns etc are prohibited from selling poultry right now.

Yes this one bloomed last year for months. I couldn’t believe how long the beautiful flowers lasted.
I showed you this plant a couple months ago when that stalk just started. It’s taking its time but has been fun to watch and I’m also looking forward to seeing it when it opens up 😊
