qualia

^^ that first pic, like an alien landscape, but it's here. we are the aliens

you just put yourself on an FBI terror watchlist, but seriously, governments don't give a shit about peoples wishes. i mean, it's noble to try and save the planet and all and yeah we should do what we can, but humans are fundamentally stupid and ignorant, and things won't change, not in your or my lifetime. i remember recently watching a video (maybe it was the woody harrelson doco?) where there was a quote along the lines of "the people can't be trusted to make decisions", and when you consider purchasing decisions such as this i happen to agree with them. GM mass produced foods will always be cheaper than organic, and the purchasing decisions outlined in the preceding article will show anything other than price will not persuade people to think and act according to their own interests, or the long term interests of the planet.

cactus cuttings? don't give up, you might be surprised just what will actually strike root and pup,

thanks, i should have qualified it by asking do i need to make special considerations for bacteria which might be present, and transfer to new plants? i might just put it away until spring time, should be nice by then.

mountain dew and red bull?

so, if i have a plant which starts to rot noticeably because the soil has broken down to compost underneath and apparently not due to any pests, what's the best way to recycle it? i ask because it appears to be beautiful rich compost and has worms spread throughout and i don't want to waste it.

if i'm stuck in a line line, personally i'm just glad to be out of the house. "Hooray I'm doing something"

yep, stand tall myco. we're all here for you brother.

the likely outcome is bunnings will just take the products off their shelves. i doubt they make enough money for them to be bothered to fight it too hard.

looks like it's set to get approval from Obama the Cruel http://www.nytimes.com/2013/05/08/us/politics/obama-may-back-fbi-plan-to-wiretap-web-users.html?_r=1&

so you know about monsanto/dupont/syngenta and gates foundation seed bank storing food etc. seeds, and now to find out the EU poses a law criminalizing such seeds unless a fee is paid. this world is a mistake.

bunch of chair sniffing shit heads. fuck australia.

damn sorry to hear man. fwiw i jsut checked vic laws as best i could and they appear to remain unchanged, so don't go shredding your garden just yet amz

seems it's just speculated that it's acoustic. it would be cool if there was some sort of quantum entanglement going on, like a kind of plant telepathy.

contact the mods, Torsten or Evil Genius and start some arbitration.

yes i found it, as much as you might not believe in polling it at least provides a snapshot of some voters thoughts, "voters are so primed to ditch Labor out they will vote against their own interests to do so"

i'd say they're pretty much spot on.

i don't think he's talking about full legalisation. at least in the case of heroin he's recommending alternative programs aimed at harm reduction and treatment as opposed to strictly punitive measures. and i hardly see how legalising cannabis will "attract a bad element of drug dealers". even looking at the US medical cannabis has produced a class of budding entrepreneurs. you can't have criminals without crime.

looks like someone didn't like the cold mornings. question: should i cut the pup off the side, pop it in the shed and lay it flat, or is she a goner?
