@normouspenis@CalltoActivism The last sentence was not necessary and disrespectful. There have been news reports of staffing shortages, with DOGE cuts and retirements being identified as the primary reasons.
I assume people have a lot of questions on how she survived living in a tree for so long. Here are the key elements:
* Living Platform: Julia lived on a small platform that was about 6 feet by 6 feet. This platform served as her living space, and it was secured to the tree high above the ground. It was rudimentary, but it was her home for more than two years.
* Basic Shelter: She had a tarp that protected her and her supplies from the rain and the elements. Given the height and exposure, weather conditions could be harsh, with strong winds, rain, and cold temperatures, especially during the winter months.
* Supplies and Sustenance: Food and water were supplied by a ground support team who used a system of ropes to haul these essentials up to her. Her diet was primarily organic and vegetarian, consisting of foods that were non-perishable and easy to transport up the tree.
* Waste Management: For waste management, Julia used a composting toilet system. This system was also hoisted up into the tree and required careful and sanitary handling to maintain hygiene and prevent any harm to the environment.
* Communication: She used a cell phone powered by solar panels to communicate with her support team and the media. This communication was crucial for coordinating supplies, raising awareness, and ensuring her safety.
* Personal Hygiene: Julia managed her hygiene with sponge baths, using minimal water and biodegradable soap. She had to be resourceful in maintaining personal cleanliness in such a confined and exposed living situation.
@Rainmaker1973 Clinging to her mattress through violent storms, supported with food and necessities by a ground crew, she stayed two years and eight days.
They don't come hard like this anymore. A real hero in my books 💯
Hope the media will make this clear. Voters deserve to know House Republicans simply aren’t engaged in good-faith discussions around the border. It’s all about making this issue a wedge issue in 2024 and we must be loud and clear about that. This is why we must vote them out. End
@guelphgirlchris Ummm, that is an interesting point. Can anyone just walk in? Do they need to prove they can vote? What is the procedure? What type of prove is required?
@VERBAL_CHANCLA@m_bohaichuk I wonder if those who rode horses said the same thing about cars in the early twentieth century. We have a lot to learn. The technology will get better…
