Bove also faces scrutiny over how he has managed staff at the DOJ. A whistleblower report submitted last month by a former Justice Department employee alleges that Bove told colleagues that the administration should ignore court orders that are stymying some of Trump’s executive orders, particularly those that rely on declarations of “emergencies” to push his anti-immigrant agenda.
You don’t need to take the entire bark off the wood. Just the outermost layers. So you can even take some from a live tree without worries in a pinch.
Thanks for adding that!
Da bin ich ganz bei dir. Ich bin "Fachkraft", kann meinen geliebten Job aber bald nicht mehr machen weil das Geld einfach nicht mehr ausreicht.
Ja aber warum diese Panik? Klar, Konzerne wollen Macht etc., aber das ist doch nichts Neues. Manchmal denke ich dass da eine (noch unausgesprochene) Angst vor den Folgen der Klimakatastrophe dahintersteckt. Und mit Angst meine ich durchaus materielle Existenzangst ebendieser Konzerne oder wer auch immer Lobbies beherrscht.
The first few books are well worth the read, just like the first few seasons of the show. I, too, lost interest after some time but I'd still rewatch/reread at least the first half of this opus.
I completed LotR for the first time completely. I started those books almost 20 years ago but never finished a single one for some reason. I still have my original movie copy of Two Towers with the Magic card I used as a bookmark in it. I bought the trilogy box set and just went for it. I cried multiple times throughout the read, then bawled like a baby at the end of Return of the King. I really felt that 20 year gap in my life come to a close. It was pure catharsis for me.
Hear hear. I felt like that myself when I read it the first (and maybe also the 2nd) time. But that was 20 years ago. Actually, the first time was way before the first Peter Jackson movie came out. I long resisted even watching the movies, but they do stand up to the books imho.

OK, that last sentence made me laugh!
American voters in both major parties consistently vote against their own collective interests in order to maximize individual gain.
Well said, but it's not just American voters. Also it depends very much on how you explain things to voters - individual gain and collective interest are not opposites, but that's what a corporate lobbyism/propaganda machine has been promoting for many decades.
For example, consider that the historical self-narrative and cultural lexicon for young American students is essentially:
Yeah just yesterday I watched snippets of old Reagan & Bush II speeches. They are so dumb and smarmy and naive.
I hope y'all know about birch bark. It's nature's lamp oil.
