@SaunaKing1@Empty_America 1. mysterious
2. intriguing
3. preposterously mundane
4. likelihood of gold coins buried in drunken panic in 1933: moderate to high
High quality comment.
@thereisnome369@SovereignIM Good observation. Let's presume experience, competency and maturity earned through hardship. Next, let's reframe the childlike playfulness to freedom of emotion. A competent and intelligent man's reward is from providing the necessary safety required for his woman to be free.
@___coris These places in America are overpriced hellscapes. Low quality construction, dozens of identical houses. They're all doomed to abandonment when the economy changes.
There is a house from the 1940s occupation in Yoyogi Park, Tokyo. It was once called Washington Heights.
a good woman: solves for you impossible predicaments and multiplies whatever care and kindness you give her into kingdoms of riches so rich you’ll chronically feel you’re reeling and can’t keep up. the most important realisation i’ve come to this year: to become the luckiest man alive, you have to do so laughingly little. just express a love to a good woman that is pure, powerful and free of all “noise”, and she’ll return it a hundredfold, so beautifully embroidered.
@botond_balazs@Gengarnet@squirtBeetle Sounds like smart-kid burnout. Life comes so easily to certain highly intelligent individuals that they don't need to think about anything except their interests and their work, so they get intellectually lazy unless they are aware of this and actively try to counteract it.
Almost end of '25. A quarter century passed where we perfected the handheld phone, internet shopping, home delivery of goods, and completely forgot how to be alive
Did you know that public land, especially National Grasslands managed by the US Forest Service, are the single largest blocks of relatively intact prairie left in the US and they’re ground zero for restoring the American Serengeti?
The ‘American Serengeti’ is the nickname given to the Great Plains of North America (our grassland steppe stretching from Montana to Texas) with similar scope and scale of biodiversity as Africa’s Serengeti (bison, elk, pronghorn, wolves, griz).
We have 20 National Grasslands (almost 4m acres) with public prairie also set aside in state and national parks as well. The biggest, which you can visit and dispersed camp on all year for free, are the Little Missouri National Grasslands (ND 1m acres) and Thunder Basin National Grassland (550k acres).
Buffalo reintroduction is currently happening in Thunder Basin and the Little Missouri (and many other public National Grasslands) where, working with tribes & ranching families, Buffalo are being reintroduced or will be soon. Almost every black footed ferret reintroduction has taken place on American National Grasslands.
National Grasslands conduct some of the largest prescribed burns in the federal land system, which restores fire grazing systems. Fire grazing, or pyric-herbivory systems are a combination of RX burns and targeted grazing that mimics the natural patterns that shaped the Great Plains before settlement.
Back then, lightning would cause a fire, fresh grass would grow back, bison would heavily graze regrown patches, which would attract more grazing. This meant a mosaic would form and constantly shift with lightning fire burns, and patches of short, medium, and tall grass along the landscape.
Federal land managers are also managing National Grasslands as what are called wildlife movement corridors, where on over 10m acres of American land (public and private) owners and managers are working together to benefit mule deer, pronghorn, sage grouse, and grassland birds.
