The part that gets me is that Biden didn't pardon Hunter until the point where he was sure Trump was going to be president who, by his own admission, was going to act vindictively from day one. Given the choice, he felt he had to act as a father protecting his son.

The muck contains Nitrosomas and Nitrobacter. One breaks down ammonia from wastewater into Nitrites. The other converts nitrites into the Nitrates the plants can consume. The symbiotic relationship created allows the plants to use any water, even urine in moderation, as both water and fertilizer.

That was absolutely hilarious, and another person worthy of my attention was found. :)

Wonderful work!

Mound compost around the plant to provide nutrients and reduce evaporation.

Go to a marsh and fill a bucket with the dark muck on the bottom with some of the water. Apply this colony of nitrogen fixing bacteria to the compost around the plant to restore the soil nitrogen cycle.

LOL I left the conversation to avoid getting confused again. :)

I follow you as a happy little accident I don't regret. :)

LOL! you can see his sleep cycle. He apparently quits posting around 3am and begins again around 11am. That explains a lot. He either has the sleeping pattern of a self absorbed teenaged brat, or he works an honest day and doesn't sleep at all.

The other issue is the assumption that the people running government are between the mean and one sigma to the right when in my experience, government tend to be both run by, and directed to, the area between 1 and 2 sigma to the left. :)

Average is not a range; it is the center of a statistical population. Geniuses and their counterparts are one standard deviation from this. The author makes the claim that it takes a person of above average intelligence to run a government, and I think we can all agree that this is not the case.

Free speech is a thing, but there are things which are not covered. You don't yell fire in a crowded movie theater, and you don't make a scene in an airport or plane.

Let re-frame this to illustrate why this sort of protest is stupid:

I dislike that my neighbor is an abusive husband who beats his wife. I will throw rocks through the window of a random business on main street to get this situation fixed.

That would get me arrested, rightly so, and solve nothing.

Yep, nor if we can get Boebert as Secretary of Education, we'll be well on our way to Idiocracy. In all seriousness, I'm trying to see the plan or at least who benefits.
