@nateliason not to mention the ongoing time cost of maintaining it, dealing with freezes, dealing with pool cleaners etc etc

@myles_cooks is this a joke? what are those, cafeteria eggs?

@normonics the friend who I went on the trip asked him what he hopes for our generation and he said something along the lines of, “I hope things don’t fall apart too quickly”. pretty sobering

[Zach Batteer @zachbatteer]

@normonics got the chance to spend an afternoon with him a few months back at his house in ky. didn’t think it was possible to think any more highly of him, alas, wendell (and his lovely wife) succeeded in the impossible

@simonsarris they are lovely creatures

[Zach Batteer @zachbatteer]

@simonsarris will forever stand on my duck > chicken egg soap box though. idk if it’s they just they are more suited to get a more diverse diet in my ecosystem, but their eggs are vibrant in a way chickens are not

[Zach Batteer @zachbatteer]

@simonsarris yea fersure. it’s definitely a “know it when you crack it” vibe

@Michaelcazayoux @nations_jared by age 12 & with a little focus shai will be capable of digging this entire thing by himself in a weekend, that I’m sure of

longstanding life goal is to build one of these natural swimming pools on my property

prob ~$50-75k if you go DIY route. companies charge exorbitant amounts to build them ($200k+)

100% rain fed, haven for wild life, beautiful, no chemicals, more resilient ecosytem

if any person plays music or game sounds out of their phone or device (without headphones) on a plane they should be summarily ejected from the plane mid-flight, no questions asked

imho violence (sudden death) is the only fair solution to such insane, barbaric behavior

@zachobront I’d still be a little nervous in Texas tbh. You’d need good shade cover or it might get algae-y in the summer bc of how hot the water would get

[Zach Batteer @zachbatteer]

@zachobront the plants oxidize the water + you build in plastic tubes into the walls that are connected to a pump to keep the water moving

[Zach Batteer @zachbatteer]

@TuckerMax @RizomaSchool Thomas Jefferson’s agrarian vision will be vindicated

“I predict future happiness for Americans, if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them”.
