the violence toward nature, human communities, traditional agricultures and local economies has been constant. The bad news is coming in, literally, from all over the world. Can such an economy be fixed without being radically changed? I don’t think it can." (2/2)
From Wendell Berry - In Distrust of Movements

"Industrialism, which is the name of our economy, and which is now virtually the only economy of the world, has been from its beginnings in a state of riot. It is based squarely upon the principle of violence toward everything on which it depends, and it has not mattered whether the form of industrialism was communist or capitalist or whatever; (1/2)

Once we allow our language to mean anything that anybody wants it to mean, it becomes impossible to mean what we say.

@andrej you still do not tell much about what is between the nice cover sides! Noone knows beyond the title what is to find there :P

Hm, buy old houses if you can and set up communities to life in.

@douginamug there is always the right time to do it, and if it did not happen yet, it was not the right time :)

@distel this general notion of shouters to speak on the behalve of others (or an assumed majority) feels more and more strange to me.

@benni derzeit sieht es für mich so aus, dass sie CO2 bepreisen "weil irgendwie müssen wir ja" und weil sie nicht an der Schwarzen Null rütteln wollen.

@wion i guess its a larvae. They were shockfrosted and later defrosted.
I guess the "food save" consumption depends on how the chicken larvae bulk is prepared.

@benni weil die höhe auf das Argument einsteigt, dass "das richtige" dann schon durch die marktvermittlung erfolgt. Nen scheiß tut sich da.

@benni wenn ich mich recht erinnere, ist 115€ in schweden der minimalpreis, und es geht bis 180€ hoch, je nach Branche und Begründung. In der Schweiz fängts bei ca. 50€ an, good bad schland will vorerst maximal 35€, das ist halt mist.

@wion i tried mealworms several weeks ago in a "future" event. they unecessarily overfried and oversalted them. It was not bad, but the kitchen screwed this serving up.

We as a collective have nice but very uncommon customers. Yesterday someone picked up 2 crates full of drinks and biked them via a cargo bike 23km home. So someone drove around 46km to get drinks from us. whoa.

@dredmorbius I guess I know some more but I only know the German names of the fairy tales.
(BTW. Some years ago I made the deliberate undergoing to become an artisan (fairy tale) story teller in a two week course. Was fun, but I liked the telling of Dickens and Chesterton characters more in the end.)

#Conferences Should Publish Menus

When organising conferences and other events, you often end up feeding people. This is a surprisingly fraught endeavour, but one that can be made less so with this one entirely sensible trick: Publish a menu in advance, ideally with an ingredients list.

@wion I know which brazilian project you point at. :)
Reforestation happend quite often in eurorasia, asia and the americas as far as i found out via a rushed research last week. But a lot of resources i cant read and i just started to assemble the research cycle. Today i just stumbles about the Great Plains reforestation when i read about Aldo Leopold.

@wion btw. thanks for showing me, that the US forest service has documents on Archive.org
