"Zwei" is the one data point in the top left corner. The entire top row is 2,12,22,32 and so on, after 12 all these numbers start with "zwei" in German, and are therefore among the last 10 numbers alphabetically in this range. Happy coincidence that 12 just makes it into the last 10 digits alphabetically to not mess this up.

I'd totally be up to magnet fish, but our bomb disposal department finds enough explosives from ww2 as is. Though I could use a pair of rusty bolt cutters used in some crime, as shown on the Wikipedia article ...

Our Minister of transportation has been a disaster for our most climate minded government yet.

He continuously refuses to present any plans on how to reduce emissions in his sector. His emission reduction targets for the past few years were missed, but instead our climate bill was changed so it doesn't have immediate consequences as long as other sectors meet their targets. Investments in communal and private rail were cut by 20 million €, while 150 Million were given to Volocopter, a start up for personal-use passenger drones. "State-owned" rail did see minor increases in investments, but most of that money is locked for now until the government and "Die Bahn" company agree on financing it.

The only good new thing in transportation right now is the 49€ a month ticket for all public transport in Germany, and even that fails to make commuters switch to public transport as public transport remains unreliable and inconvenient outside of cities.

I grew Chard one Summer during the pandemic. I had some old garden magazine with a similar sketch, but focusing on the vegetable beds. They described how incredibly space efficient chard is, and how it should be grown in any garden centered on self-sufficiency.

So anyways, I'm all for community gardening now and can not look at another leaf of chard for the next decade. That stuff really knocks the dream of self-sufficiency out of any gardener. It's ridiculous how much Chard just 2 rows of plants can produce with minimal time spend tending to them, but don't believe anyone who says its leaves tastes like spinach and the stems like asparagus. It tastes like green mush and is best chucked in the freezer to die a slow death, maybe to be micro-dosed into some smoothie.

I should have instead started with Chickens, maybe they would have liked it.

Rabbits were initially bred as a source of meat, as were guinea pigs.

I personally couldn't slaughter either.

Let's say it this way:

Microplastics in your body are bad, so if you know how to reduce your intake, you know how to be healthy longer, which allows you to keep fighting the good fight for the environment longer. Would be a shame if you die of cancer due to plastics while some oil baron stays healthy due to only drinking tea.

You should care about this, you don't have to choose between your/human health and the environment when deciding on what to care for. Nobody only cares about humans, but saying "Microplastics can be removed (for human consumption) by boiling" is still good news to most people.

In some studies Mircroplastics seem to be linked to skin cancer. And while no food will truly be 100% free of it, I believe like toxins, they build up each level of the food chain (Bio-accumulation). So eating big carnivorous fish like Tuna may be less healthy than beef which is less healthy than a vegan diet, but most research on Bio accumulation seems to be focused on marine life.

Ugh.

  • fluids should be around two 3rds of what you consume every day by weight. Reducing microplastics in there by 80% is a huge improvement, not at all comparable to your dieting allegory
  • for the same reason, the microplastics we breathe in are unfortunate, hopefully some day eradicated, but negligible compared to what we consume
  • it's not my fault your country still allows lead based solder and you don't know what a tea pot is. Hot tip: You can boil your water every day in it.
  • Again, people can care about 2 things at once. Just because I don't have any idea how to deal with the great pacific garbage patch doesn't mean I might as well eat the plastic wrapper with my food inside it.

My left pinkie finger knuckle can hold some tension when I from my pinkie into a claw shape, but then snaps forward. Either that's unusual or my right hand can't do that as snappy.

A sad day when following international law is considered exceptional.

They make an entire guide now just to insult me with their last word, hmpf!

This isn't a illustration on what these words actually mean, it's an illustration how the author interprets these words.

I say, but then again, what else could one put in such an illustration but their own vision.
