a terrible practice in what not to do when plant dying: an example

[a terrible practice in what not to do when plant dying: an example]

every year family friend send us expensive premium giant!!!!! waxberry/bayberry/idk what english speaking ppl usually call it. they delicious!! only slightly smaller than mouth open widest

n every year there juice inside package. this year had idea do plant dying. < impulse decision

not prepared. have unmordanted cashmere yarn (really inexpensive got second hand idk if it real) & unmordanted cotton fabric. this be interesting.

[id: left picture show waxberry, there 4 stack on top of eachother in small bowl size of hand. right picture have bowl of waxberry & bowl with little juice with fruit fork in it & cone of yarn n some already dyed pieces on paper. end id]

grabbed white vinegar as “last minute mordant”, n to be honest was just at most dip soak, few seconds at best, so it do anything? shrug

mid way realize should probably pre wash fiber (should specifically scour but ehhhhh)—especially for this cashmere (“cashmere”) yarn because for easy (machine) knit it been coated with something that help cashmere down not get all fluffy fuzzy hard knit with. n you suppose wash out after knit n yarn will bloom n be softer. so, thought may affect dying. so pre washed some samples before dye. by “wash,” specifically mean run under regular temperature water for like some seconds until complete wet n maybe use hand soap. it do anything? shrug again

n also. know animal protein & plant fiber sometimes have different dye process. but ehhh *throw hands*. proceed “mordant” one of cotton scrap same process as wool yarn.

previous dye experience: need heat source. last time was get help keep boil. this time too little liquid n don’t want get help boil anyway. so got help put in microwave…

[id: line up final product taped on white paper. labeled as yes/no prewash, white vinegar, & heat. there 5 pieces for yarn with varying amounts. all yarn visually look same color & stiff. there 2 piece cotton fabric. they look same as eachother but slightly more vibrant than yarn. end id]

result is…. everything pretty much look same.

because like. yeah. “mordanted” but not really, not suprise 10 20 second dip in room temp white vinegar going make giant difference. microwave for 10 seconds especially without proper scour mordant fixative, also doubt make big difference.

but, is really pretty color. it prettier in liquid, n when squeeze liquid out, get more muted, but still very pretty color, pinkish purplish. beet color but lighter?

n this without wash afterwards—found that. when wash, because not soak for long, n not mordant fixative properly, not heat properly, color mostly get out. some color still stay n become more of a muted almost pastel (as pastel as natural dye can be). n normally like pastel, but want keep this as waxberry-like as possible. so, didn’t wash. result is keep about same color when dry, but stiff n not that soft, as expected.

was just for fun, not going make anything out of, not to wear, not going hang as decoration so not worried abt lightfastness. so, satisfy with whatever this is.

then, with leftover dye, didn’t want waste, so threw in as much vinager dipped yarn as can cover liquid. heat it n let it be in heat for 20 minutes.

bad lighting, but. when wet:

[id: very saturated reddish pink yarn in bowl stained slightly pink & brown. end id]

n after, still damp so feel softer:

[id: first photo two small skein of yarn in pinkish purplish color on top of plant notebook. second photo in ball with one strand yarn lighter than rest. end id]

same yarn, main color difference because lighting not because inherent yarn.

except that one strand lighter than rest—that was test how yarn look like how much dye actually took with all improper but still slightly more effort process (more heat, longer). took more dye than when no heat or 10 second heat, but still visibly lighter.

when dry, that washed strand much softer than rest of stiff unwashed yarn. unwashed yarn slightly darker than previous attempts.

now room reeks of white vinegar.

but. will be enjoying delicious waxberry for rest of week >:)))

.

google search results: “did you mean: how NOT to dye natural fibers”

ultimately knew bad practice from beginning, but not really care, because meant be impulse fun anyway. n occupied me in special interest land for afternoon.

RATED EXPLICIT

SUMMARY

Asami gives Korra an exclusive tour of Future Industries' sex toy division...

EXCERPT

"So how exactly did Future Industries get into the sex toy market?" Korra asked as her and Asami walked through the double doors of the department inside the Sato family's business building, Future Industries. "Well, after all of his business dealings with the Water Tribe Civil War and with Kuvira and the Earth Empire bit him in the ass, Varrick decided his personal business mantra was to 'Make Love Not War' and invested in R&D for much of what you see here," Asami replied, gesturing to the racks and racks of various sex toys, devices, and S&M rigs. "It's harmless enough, and honestly, I've actually gotten into developing some of these products myself." "Really?" Korra raised her eyebrows. "Like what?" Asami took Korra's hand and led her to a small handheld device with a glowing end. She pressed a button and the device hummed softly. "Like this," Asami explained. "I reverse-engineered the technology that went into the electroshock gloves we took from the Equalists and innovated the device you see here, lowering the voltage considerably, of course." Korra took it and felt the vibration in her hands. "Go ahead and touch the tip," Asami suggested. Korra touched the glowing end. A small electrical charge ran up her finger. She jerked her hand back in surprise and looked at Asami quizzically. "Did it hurt?" Asami asked, concerned. Korra shook the tingling out of her hand. "No. Not at all! My finger just tingles. It's weird." "It's a vibrator that delivers a minute current of electricity to maximally stimulate the nerve endings," Asami winked. "Very effective." Korra looked at her hand, still feeling the tingling. "I bet." Asami discretely put the device in her jacket and continued her tour of the sex toy department. Korra was bemused at the array of devices and sex aids— she had always preferred the old fashioned way, the natural way: a rock-hard dick or a few fingers in her pussy or ass. A tasty pussy that she could coax the juice out of or a cock that she could milk dry. If it ain't broken, don't fix it. "You don't seem very interested in any of the merchandise in here," Asami pointed out, sounding rather disappointed. Korra shrugged, blushing slightly. "I dunno... I just feel like many of these are trying to come up with a solution to a problem that doesn't exist. Call me a country girl or whatever but I just don't see the need for the majority of this stuff. Your tongue... your hands... that's all I need to be happy." "Thanks," Asami blushed. "I get that... but all of this stuff isn't meant to replace that. It's meant to enhance it. Sex aids, not sex replacements." Korra was still unconvinced. "Oh, you're gonna make me take out the big guns, aren't you?" Asami tugged her arm. "C'mon. Let me show you what else we've been working on."

✨EN / JP vending machine dialogue comparison✨

compiled for reference + with some brief descriptions of the original items! also yes the really cursed milk joke is exactly the same in the original text

(contains miles + franziska's JP/EN dialogue for each item, theres a lot of text after the cut)

1.) EN / JP [Hot Dog / ホットドッグ] note: the JP dialogue also lists payne as being the one who thought of the description.

Edgeworth:"When you're in hot water, you might need a hot dog." Edgeworth:.................. Edgeworth: Hm... It looks like this slogan was decided through a public contest. Edgeworth: And the winner was... Prosecutor Winston Payne...? Franziska: Hmph. What a pathetic slogan. No presence at all! Now, if it was up to me, it would read... Franziska: "If you leave matters in a Von Karma's hands, everyone in court will be found guilty dogs!" Edgeworth: ............Objection! Franziska: Overruled!

ミツルギ:『有罪で、ほっと一息ホットドッグ』 ミツルギ: ････････････････････ ミツルギ: ふむ････どうやら、 公募によって決められた名前のようだな。 ミツルギ: 命名者は亜内検事、 か メイ:フン。気の弱いことね。私ならこう名づけるわ。『狩魔に任せておけばほっといても全員有罪ホットドッグ』 ミツルギ: ････････････････････ 意義あり! メイ: 却下よ!

2.) EN / JP [ Beef Jerky / 饅頭] note: the original item here in the JP release was a box of manjū. the description is probably a pun on shinsou (truth) + shiroi (white) referring to the white cream in the middle of the bun. a close approximation of it is probably something like "Get to the bottom of our most delicious case yet! The proof is in the pudding!"

Edgeworth: "Don't be a jerk in court like these beef jerks!" I see... Franziska: Objection! Miles Edgeworth! Wouldn't you agree that it's a very clever pun? Edgeworth: Do you really think they put that much effort into the product name? Franziska: Even a foolish fool could understand the foolish thinking of the fool who made it up! Franziska: You're acting so foolishly that I got so thoroughly mad, and am now utterly famished! Edgeworth: ......If you wanted a pack of these, all you had to do was ask like a normal person. ミツルギ: 『真相は白いアンの中まんじゅう』・・・なるほど。 メイ: 意義あり! 御剣怜侍! うまいことを言った、とでも思ってるの? ミツルギ: それなりに考えられた名前だと思うが? メイ: バカが考えたバカげたシャレに、バカがバカな理解を示している。 メイ: バカバカしくて、 腹立ちまぎれにおなかがすいてきたわ! ミツルギ:・・・・・・食べたいなら、すなおにそう言えばいいだろう。

3.) EN / JP [ Ham Sandwich / カツサンド] note: the original item here was a katsu sando.

Edgeworth: "Don't let the prosecution and the defense make a ham sandwich out of you!"...? Franziska: It sounds like it's directed at that ham of a Judge. Edgeworth: Well, it certainly isn't directed at me. I can out-maneuver him any day. ミツルギ: 『検事と弁護士にはさまれて、もう限界カツサンド』････? メイ: 無能な裁判長の叫びのようね。 ミツルギ: 私には、まだまだ余裕があるように思えるがな・・・

4.) EN / JP [Orange Juice / 伊予柑] note: the original item here was a lyokan.

Edgeworth: "When it's looking bad, blind your opposition with some OJ!" Are they promoting violence? Franziska: Don't worry. My whip will make sure that anybody following this advice won't be for long. Edgeworth: (Compared to the sting of a whip, the sting of orange juice may not be so bad...) ミツルギ: 『困ったら目つぶしイヨカン』 犯罪を助長してはいないだろうか。 メイ: そんなものなくても、私にはこのムチがあればじゅうぶんよ。 ミツルギ:(法廷にムチを持ち込めるなら、目つぶしくらいカワイイものか)

5.) EN / JP [Milk / 牛乳] note: this joke is basically exactly the same as in the JP text.

Edgeworth: "Defendant's Fresh Milk!" ... What exactly is that supposed to mean? Franziska: I bet it means the milk is freshly milked by various defendants on trial right now. Edgeworth: No, I think it might mean that this was milked right here from the various defendants. Franziska: Miles Edgeworth... You can't possibly be serious! Edgeworth: ...Of course not.

ミツルギ: 『被告人の、しぼりたて牛乳』 どういうイミだろうか? メイ: 被告人がしぼった牛乳、ということでしょう。 ミツルギ:いや、裁判でしぼられた被告人から出た牛乳ということも考えられる。 メイ: 御剣怜侍 ････まさか、本気で言っているわけではないわよね? ミツルギ: ..........もちろんだ。

5.) EN / JP [Swiss Roll / とら焼き] note: the original item here was dorayaki. the description “dorayaki together until the gong/bell goes” is because they're shaped like gongs ("dora"="gong")

Franziska:"Stay neutral as the Swiss do until the end with these!" ...The end of what? Edgeworth: Well, I assume it means the end of the trial. Edgeworth: I suppose this means that one should eat them during a recess...? Franziska: You can't eat during a trial, so I suppose the only time you can eat them is now, huh! Edgeworth: I wouldn't mind if you wanted to eat one now. They come in packs of two, after all. Franziska: Hmph. We're in the middle of an investigation! Besides, I don't have $6 on me! Edgeworth: If you want, we can pool our money and buy a pack together. Franziska: If I have to split it with you, then I don't want it!

メイ: 『ドラがなるまで一緒どら焼き』ドラがなるまで? ミツルギ: おそらく、ドラというのは開廷の合図を指しているのだろう。 ミツルギ: 休廷中に食べるということか...? メイ: 法廷では飲食は禁止されているわ。 食べるのなら、今のうちね。 ミツルギ:食べたいのなら、構わないが?ちょうど2個入りのようだからな。 メイ:今は調査中よ。それに、600円も持ち合わせていないわ。 ミツルギ:ならば私のお金とあわせて買えばよいではないか。 メイ: あなたに同情されるくらいなら、食べなくてもケッコウよ!

[denimbex1986]

“I really believe that we all do contain multitudes,” Andrew Scott said on a Friday morning in March. Scott may contain more than most. An actor of unusual sensitivity and verve, he is starring, solo, in an Off Broadway production of Chekhov’s melancholy comedy “Uncle Vanya.” The title, like the cast list, has also been condensed, to just “Vanya.”

The New York transfer of this London production had opened a few nights before. In this version, the playwright Simon Stephens has relocated the action from 19th-century Russia to rural Ireland in more or less the present day. Scott plays the central character, a man who has sacrificed his own ambition to support his feckless brother-in-law. He also plays the brother-in-law, the put-upon niece, the neglected young wife, and several others. Scott is alone onstage throughout. That stage can feel very crowded.

The New York Times critic Jesse Green described Scott, in performance, as a “human Swiss Army knife.” Mindful of Scott’s work in “Fleabag,” “Ripley” and the recent film “All of Us Strangers,” Green also referred to Scott as a “sadness machine.” This is a popular opinion. Variety has called him “Hollywood’s new prince of heartache.”

On this morning, Scott, 48, did not appear unusually sad, though he was somewhat rumpled. The plan had been to walk over to Little Island and then along the Hudson River, toward the theater, but severe weather had changed that.

Oh my God, it’s windy,” he said, out on the street. (“You can’t get sick,” his publicist fretted.) So Scott had retreated, with a breakfast burrito and a Day-Glo orange juice, to the shelter of a nearby pier. Its windows looked out onto the river. The water — choppy, gray-green — reflected in his eyes.

In person, Scott is serious, though he wears that seriousness lightly. And if his intelligence and empathy are obvious, he wears these lightly, too. Vanity eludes him. (Even aware he would be photographed, he arrives with his hair looking like it has never known a comb.) And I thought, as he sat cross-legged on a bench, wearing a nubby brown cardigan, that I have rarely met an actor with less pretense or affectation. Later he took off that cardigan. On his red shirt, a heart was embroidered, just over the breast.

Scott did not plan to play all the roles in “Vanya.” Despite moving the action to Ireland, Stephens, a playwright with whom Scott has often collaborated, had written a more traditional adaptation of the play. But during an early read through with Stephens and the director, Sam Yates, Scott had a scene in which he took both parts. Something electric happened.

Initially, despite that electricity, Scott resisted. He worried that playing all the roles would feel like a gimmick or perhaps an empty exercise. But as he got to know the play better, he began to see the connections among the characters. “They’re all just talking about their own very particular pain and how it’s a very singular thing,” he said. “Actually, all of them are much more similar to each other than they say.” Having a single actor onstage, erasing the physical difference between the characters, would only emphasize this.

Rehearsals were rigorous, but also magical in their way. Learning the lines was hard — “so [expletive] hard,” Scott said, but then again he had played Hamlet, so he could handle it. He didn’t want to do elaborate accents, though close listeners, and Irish listeners in particular, will distinguish differences of class and locale among the characters. And costume changes (Scott wears his own clothes throughout) were nixed. So he contented himself with finding gestures and small props to define each person. Michael, a country doctor, bounces a tennis ball; Ivan, the Vanya of the title, wears sunglasses and toys with a sound-effects machine; Sonia, Ivan’s niece, wrings a dishrag. As the play goes on, these props and gestures fall away and it’s only Scott’s energy that defines the roles.

“You don’t want the audience going: Which one is this?” he said. “But you do want them to do a little bit of work, a little bit of leaning forward.”

Somehow it all succeeds. Even in scenes in which Scott has to canoodle with himself, there is clarity. And surprising heat. (If you are one of the legions of fans obsessed with Scott’s Hot Priest character on the TV comedy “Fleabag,” maybe it’s not so surprising.) “It’s representing sex in a very fundamental way,” he said. In every scene, Scott is incredibly specific in where he looks, how he stands, where he places the other characters. Sometimes, alone onstage, he has to adjust his step so that he won’t run into them.

“It’s just an endless experiment,” he said. “I’m still learning about it all the time.”

Scott doesn’t think he’s any more sad than most people, though he knows that he often plays sad characters, the “Vanya” ones among them. (He also, worryingly, has a line (“Ripley,” “Sherlock”) in psychopaths.) He recognizes his talent for empathy and he knows that he is perhaps better at understanding and conveying emotion than most. “But not just sadness,” he said. “I laugh very easily. The idea that people are sensitive or vulnerable in some ways, I find very, very beautiful. So I don’t have fear of that. Or at least I don’t have a big fear.”

And really, what’s more universal than sadness?

“Who isn’t sad?” he said. “Like, who isn’t sad? I don’t get that.”

“Vanya,” on its face, is a play about wasted potential. So it’s the gentlest kind of irony that in performing it, Scott isn’t wasting his. Sometimes that prospect is daunting. “It’s a potentially scary thing to think that you might live up to your potential every time you do the play,” he said. Often he wakes up in the morning and thinks he won’t be able to do it again that night. But then he does, making himself a vessel for humanity, in all its multitudes and contradictions. As an actor, he’s just large enough to contain it all.

“The fact that we all behave in absolutely monstrous, beautiful, completely contradictory ways as human beings, that’s what my job is to represent,” he said.'

Today was actually a really productive day. Despite how crummy I was feeling for a lot of it.

I slept alright. Not the best, not the worst. Waking up wasn't great. The new curtains made the room hide and dark which did not help me wake up. I did hit the snooze button but would only stay in bed a few extra minutes. James was laying on the floor waiting for me to wake up. We had a nice hug and I let them know how as going to take a shower and wash my hair before I left so they didn't need to wait for me. They said alright and wished me luck and would figure out coming to my appointment this afternoon.

I felt a little better after my shower. I was still really anxious and was still nauseous at times. But I was trying to be optimistic. When I went outside our neighbor, Mary, was sitting on her stoop so I went and chatted with her for a bit. I told her about my high blood pressure yesterday and she told me God will take care of it. She is very sweet.

I decided I would go to the McDonald's in hunt valley before I went to camp. I ordered my breakfast and I have no idea how I messed it up so bad but I would end up with a steak and onion mc muffin??? I literally didn't even know it was an option and it smelled like dog food. Gross. I would disassemble it and it wasn't amazing but it was fine. I was just like. Of course this was happen. On this day I was so stressed.

Once I got to camp I would start working on setting up tomorrow's field trip. I took stuff out of the car to make space and when I started loading in the car I realized the car absolutely stink like dog food and Soni had to keep all the windows open for the entire time I was at camp to just to air it out. Gross.

It took about an hour to get everything set. I went around to each station and I think everything looks nice. Its a staff lead one so I hope that my coworkers are smart enough to handle everything. They are all very competent so I am not worried at all.

Once things were set in the woodlands village I would go down to the lodge to drop off the tech stuff and chatted with Joe for a little about the field trips this week. He was working on taking apart the gaga pit, I assume to rebuild, and would be using big machines today.

I went to the office to print and laminate some stuff. Chatted with Alexi about the new appointment and she made me feel like things were going to be okay. Just a little stressed still.

I would stay at camp until 1030. I would print new schedules because the one Elizabeth did yesterday didn't have the group names. And we chatted about the trip and stuff. We also watched Sarah drive the gator with Obie the mini horse in the back which was very silly looking.

I would go and pet Obie for a while. And drank a juice. And then I was out. Elizabeth said I could stay if I wanted more hours but there wasn't anything I needed to do really (I could have jumped into the field trip today as extra hands but they didn't actually need help) so I decided that I should go home and rest before my appointment.

I'm really glad I did.

The drive home was rough on my. Music made me cry. I was nauseous and stressed. I calmed down enough once I was parking but I was just so glad I was home.

There were some people outside our neighbors's house and it turns out they are the former owners of Tori next door's place and our place! I think they are trying to buy Tori's house back since no one is renting it from them and I'm sure they are stressed about it. They were very nice older white people. I told them how much I love this block but I really hope they put a light in on the corner. Because man. The way people drive on this street is insane sometimes. But I love our house and the people on our block. The guy was like well I'm sold, great reviews.

When I went inside I would take Crabcake out to walk around while I sipped my juice and worked on some knitting. I would also soak Crabcake in some warm water for a bit before I moved all of us outside.

I would lay on the swing for about an hour. Until the sun got to hot on my legs. I was not feeling amazing. I was trying to just chill. But I was nervous about the appointment. And I was catastrophizing a bit. So I kept considering doing things that I wouldn't be able to do if something went wrong. It was probably not healthy.

I had a yogurt. And changed my shirt. Twice. I brought everything inside. And it was 115. And I was like. I am just going to go now and wait in the parking lot.

And that is what I did. James would leave the museum at 130, about when I got to the parking lot. At 145 I went inside and checked in. And James got there a few minutes later.

Thankfully the appointment went very well. I did not get an ultrasound, rude. But we did get to hear baby's heartbeat. 140 and doing well. I think I overwhelmed the nurse a bit with all of my problems and concerns. She had to go get sticky notes to write them all down.

My blood pressure was 120/80 today, much less concerning but still higher then normal. The nurse practitioner that I met with today was so sweet. She was such a good listener and I felt a lot more secure in the plan for not feeling terrible. They are going to try and get me zofran again. And they prescribed me an at home blood pressure cuff to monitor myself. James was very nervous the whole appointment but I think hearting baby's heart helped calm us both down.

They did decide to test me for lead while we were there. Which was seemingly a little confusing to the lab techs. And then the phlebotomist wasn't the nicest. But everyone else is so it's all good. They make up for it.

We made my next appointment. I was smart and didn't for 3 weeks this time so it won't line up with my high risk appointment. And I was feeling a lot lighter after everything.

James biked home and I stopped at five below for candy and looking at the T-shirt wall. I would get the greatest iguana shirt. And the cashier complimented my tattoos and I was feeling happy. Still nauseous but happy.

When I got home James had made me a quesadilla. And we hung out together for a bit. They went to watch a show in the other room. And I enjoyed having the backdoor open. Just enjoying the beautiful weather.

James would set up in the living room to record their podcast. And I would focus my little bit of energy on organizing the basement. Putting things away that have been bothering me and making the shelf over the washer/dryer more organized and I am really happy with the work but man did I get sweaty. And then I was absolutely exhausted. It took like an hour to get the basement all together and Im really proud of the productivity but still. Man.

I laid in bed until James got done their podcast. They brought me a bowl of ice cream. And then I went to take a shower while they are their dinner. They would grab a shower after me.

And now we are in bed. And I am very tired. It's a very big field trip tomorrow. 88 kids. But I am really hoping it's a good time. I hope you all have a good day tomorrow. Sleep well. I love you all. Good night!!

Base project - progress week 3

finally got around to continuing this project......... anyway

I've expanded the water facility-thing into some sort of "boiler" room? My idea is, that snow falls into the chute and goes into the yellow tank, which is heated by the lava tank. Snow melts and evaporates, which is transported through some pipes, which are cooled down by a "cooling machine"-thing. The water continues into the pink tank and is filtered, and goes into the large water tank. bingo.

after that i've started work on the greenhouse. i currently use it to mainly grow stuff to make fruit salad. I'm gonna add a section later for ultimate juice production so i can earn some extra pixelssss

About the Servile Operation of Steam Engines / Milky Fuel Station back door / Chapter 4+

-------------------

Transcript:

[Although steam engines are extremely primitive from the view of internal-combustion engines like us, they have advantages that make them hard to discard. The most remarkable thing is that their existence depends little on their ego level.

As many of you may know, high-pressure steam is required to operate steam engines.

Steam is created by heating sewage water (It is very likely that the reason why steam engines are insusceptible to their ego level is hidden in the heating of sewage water). In the past, roots were used as heating fuel. However, today we mainly use Juice's waste oil and purified frog oil, since the amount of roots decreased along with the amount of sewage water.

Purified frog oil is a by-product of the process of supplying food to Juice. For that reason, we would not be able to keep our current steam engine system alive without Juice. We can say that the modification of Juice not only produced more sewage and milky fuel but also plentiful benefits.

And because of this, we were able to achieve satisfactory results regarding the servile operation of steam engines. We have been successful in using them as power sources of factories and power-generating turbines as well as drive force for the press machines and the mobile bridge. Benefits in our milky fuel consumption brought about by these uses must be immeasurable.

By the way, recently, we have found evidence of someone touching the steam engine control panel in the Laboratory. That control panel controls the two press machines and the mobile bridge that connects to the factory warehouse. Although we do not know the violator's intention, we would like to warn everyone that it is dangerous to operate the control panel without good reason.

As an aside, it is quite conceivable that steam engines with independent minds like us existed in the past. If such machines existed, a totally different relationship that is gender-free and without fear of ego level decreasing must have existed.]

Fruit Juice

Coco sat the basket of fruits on the table. Apples, oranges, grapes, figs, plums, lemons, all plump and ripe, hand-picked by the Frontend Manager of the Sweet and Savoury. She had decided to give herself a new title, given her last conversation with Einar. He would be Backend Manager, and in charge of finances and bookkeeping. This was a huge point of trust for Coco. Some part of her was extremely worried about giving pecuniary duties to a known gambling addict, but this appeared to be a good way to get Einar involved in the tavern he owned. A sack of gil slid across the table, followed by a handshake, and Coco was off, fruit in hand. 

Back at the tavern, the groceries were unloaded into neat piles, along with a new device, recently purchased. Coco took a cloth and wiped down the metal machine. A funnel on top was fed one by one with slices of apple, as the hand-crank on the side was rotated in a smooth rhythm. Below, a trickling stream of liquid poured into a glass, aside the mangled husk of the once-beautiful fruit. She picked up the glass and took a drink of the apple juice. It needed sugar. She pushed aside the spent apple mush and cleansed the machine with water, readying the device for the oranges next. 

A while later, there sat a row of jars of colorful liquid, each sweetened with sugar and heated to dissolve the saccharine sand into a pleasant drink. Coco wiped her brow and looked at the results of her labor. There wasn’t as much product as she would have liked. Looks like she’ll need another trip to the Jeweled Crozier. Einar would probably need more than just a few jars of fruit juice, now that he’s trying to quit drinking.

The door locked behind her, as she began her second trip to the market that day.

this all sounds good until you remember China was always a global producer of CFCs, and they only ramped up production AFTER the rest of the world got reigned in to stop using them or face sanctions. And to this day, 60% of the source, that's 6/10, 3/5ths, of the entire world's supply of CFCs producted industrially that today are killing the ozone layer still, come from China. The problem is still more than half what it used to be. The hole in the ozone layer over antarctica is still there. It hasn't entirely gone, because that action only cared about certain countries. And it wasn't a matter of shortsightedness; it could've mandated globally and enforced those rules for developers into the future. It chose not to and chose the language on purpose.

They only cared about the ones coming from the west, tho.

And similarly, Russian stockpiles of nuclear weapons haven't diminished so much as they've just failed and needed to be decommissioned. They still have an absolutely bewildering, hilarious amount of nukes. MAD was imposed as doctrine solely to make sure if Russia struck first, there'd be no juice worth the squeeze, for there'd be nothing left in the orchard. The nuclear weapon treaties haven't really changed much, just given a false sense of security.

In the famous Chicken Ukraine speech by George H. W. Bush (the earlier Bush than G. W), in that era, when the Soviet Union fell, they'd agreed to limit their tanks and APCs to about 20,000 apiece to prevent massive military buildup and panic, given how the SU at that point was mass producing good-enough (shitty) tanks and other vehicles to flatten other parts of Europe in lightning artillery war. So what happened to the tens of thousands of military machines after this treaty was signed? Were they dismantled?

No, the SU moved them, "East of the Ural Mountains" to further parts of the SU and claimed that the treaty didn't reach them there, for some arbitrary reason, and mothballed them. This surplus is today being used to fight in Ukraine.

The hole in the ozone layer is still a thing, thanks to China. And yet, like dealing with a Karen's Golden Childe, suddenly the big thing and bad behavior that Needs To Stop Immediately(tm) becomes a quiet issue that the supposed lawbringers and peacekeepers aggressively silence or refuse to act on, when it's their precious overgrown babby causing the problems.

Miraculous how similarly, these folks so opposed to nuclear war and nuclear weapons went on anti-nuclear power tirades in the 60s-90s, while at the same time calling for carbon and other pollutant free sources of energy. Even banning the reusability of nuclear waste to deal with it quicker and get more use out of each gigantic concrete and steel drum of gray metal, so we can't both decontaminate and exercise the energy out of it quicker, we just have to let it exist as space and wasted potential.

They closed Yucca Mountain because after hemming and hawing, determined even after extensive testing and proven methods, they "couldn't guarantee the water table." They try and loophole and technicality out nuclear power plants, and prevent new ones from being built.

And yet these people do not call for international actions or sanctions on Russia, China or other countries that objectively do contribute to all these problems they believe are both pertinent domestically and absolutely urgent internationally. Almost as if they cared less about the problem, as much as tying western hands together so they weren't allowed to operate in as efficient or industrial a manner.

Look at the way the Greens of Germany practically bent the country forwards and presented Russia its asshole for that natural gas pipe and oil. Where regulations and safety precautions are a great big XAXAXAXAXA, compared to Germany and the EU, with its own safety protocols and standards that can sometimes strangulate development and productivity. Forcing them to buy power from Russia, at great expense to its own security, and giving Russia a diplomatic "do what we say or we shut off your power" switch.

Gadflies and Gaslights.
