Man, I already don’t do verbs at people. I’m posting this to a website though, and that doesn’t involve people, but if you choose to read it, then I’m delighted. If we have that layer of internet abstraction, then we can do whatever we want?
I’m gonna go outside and touch some grass.

i dunno if i was jesus and had to watch person after person blast rope to waluigi hentai i’d want to be crucified
You have to imagine that Jesus enjoys it, then it makes sense. Like Sisyphus
I imagine that the boulder sisyphus pushes wouldn’t roll downhill if the top of the hill weren’t so slippery from zeus constantly blasting rope to waluigi hentai
I like the fact that your username makes it seem like you’re walking into a church while saying this and then you realize you’re not at the YMCA
well the ymca gets upset if I do that kind of thing

A lot of people think that to get to orbit, you just go up. That’s partially true, but in reality you go up to get out of the atmosphere, and then go sideways really, really fast.
Imagine throwing a ball in the air. If you throw it straight up, then no matter how high you throw it, it just comes back down. Now imagine throwing it across the room. It falls in a curved arc, right? Now imagine throwing it so fast that it goes past the horizon. That curved arc is still there, and it’s much longer now.
Now imagine throwing it so hard that it not only goes past the horizon, it actually never hits the earth in the first place. That’s an orbit! Of course, the earth has an atmosphere, so it would slow down because of aerodynamic drag. That’s why we send rockets way upward—to get out of the air.
So a satellite in orbit is literally just falling constantly, but because it’s going so fast, it’s always missing the earth. It’s for this reason that an astronaut can’t “fall off of” the space station. They’re moving just as fast as the station is, and so even if they pushed themselves off of it, they would remain in orbit.
If you find yourself on a space station don’t push yourself off it tho.
You’re not my mom!
Just because everyone else is pushing off the space station, doesn’t mean you have to!!!
But, without any thrust, they would stay in orbit for years. Eventually, if in low orbit, their space suit will collide with enough stray atoms, it’ll lose enough speed to fall back to earth and incinerate in the atmosphere.
“The Guide says there is an art to flying”, said Ford, “or rather a knack. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.”

oh you’ve been here for a week. A happy belated Welcome!
You’re doing it wrong right now. Just do it right and it will work. Thank me later.
Good advice about the things.
Glad I could help!
Bananas are being killed by a fungus blight and will be gone in ten years…
Gros Michel was tastier than modern Cavendish anyway.
We switched to Cavendish because all the gros Michael trees were dying from the fungi.
That’s the point of the OP of the thread. I’ve read though, that Gros Michel is stll grown in small farms, just not at scale.
It is and you can buy them, but you pay a significant premium for them.
IIRC Cavendish is supposed to be more resilient to the fungi than Gros Michael is, but it’s not immune. The fungi mostly exists underground so it’s difficult, if not impossible to remove from the land once it’s “infected”… And it takes decades to clear naturally once the trees are removed.
The good thing here is that we already have Gros Michael and AFAIK, Cavendish seeds in the global seed vault, so we’re not at risk of losing the ability to bring the trees back at some point in the future. We still haven’t lost them, as you mentioned, there’s still small batches being grown.
IMO, it’s all a bit sad, since apparently Gros Michael is so much tastier, and there’s a shrinking number of people alive who are old enough to remember what they tasted like at all… So without investing in buying some from one of the small batch plantations still growing them, very soon, all but those that specifically went out of their way to try them, will have no idea what they taste like.
I’m not old enough to remember what they taste like (if they even existed as an option in the grocery when I was born at all, which I’m not sure about). I’ll probably never know.
I was born in 1977, and the fungi that destroyed most of Gros Michel seem to happen in 1950ies. But I can say for sure that bananas in my childhood were much tastier than now. Maybe because there are much more sorts of bananas except GM and Cavendish, or maybe GM was still sold and I was lucky to try it. Modern bananas are outright bland to me.
Can’t come soon enough…
Wait really? Surely something can be done about that

I thought the 5 year gap was shortening every year because the years pass
Removed by mod
Shortening at the rate of 1 year per year
Doing some quick searching, I didn’t find anything that covers your scenario. Not that I don’t believe you, but do you have a source on Fusarium quickly evolving fungicide resistance in a big way?

It will be fun if we lose modern high yield rapeseed and soybean. Lovely.
Unrelated but horrible farm story you reminded me of. Worked on a tater farm when I was a kid. One of my favorite things when riding the planter was when they would spray fungicide on the planting from previous days. It smelled just like Grapico cola (grape flavored soft drink). We all loved the smell of it and basically huffed the wind. Probably get dick cancer or something from it one day.
I saw a video once, so I’m pretty much an expert in it.
Tell me less
Yo, I got plenty of experience with stuff, I did lots of stuff when I was younger and still do stuff often, so feel free to ask me about stuff!
Clearly you’re unqualified, you know about stuff, they’re looking for someone with experience in anything and knowledge of something. Your knowledge of stuff isn’t needed here.
🥺
What kind of stuff do you put in a turkey before cooking it?
The good stuff
So how many stuffs have you done this far?
Lotsa stuff
You’ll have to pay me to tell you what it is I know and then pay me again to explain it.
What do you mean by that?
You’ll have to pay me to tell you what it meant. They didn’t ask for anything specific. Just asked if I knew anything.
Ha ha! We got this one for free!
Got what? I didn’t explain to you what I know.
Got him boys! 🤑
Damn, you’re one slippery fish.
The stem on a wine glass has a purpose besides looking fancy. A wine drinker is meant to hold the glass by the stem so the temperature in their hand doesn’t affect the flavor profile in the wine. All wines have an ideal serving temperature also. It depends on the specific wine, but in general, reds are slightly below room temperature and whites are slightly above fridge temperature.
Thanks I’ll use this for when I next have soup
May I offer you a bowl of sauvignon blanc to go with your glass of soup?
I’d take some toilet wine
Very well, your toilet wine will be served to you together with the bath tub lasagna
Yeah, I’d like to order a paint can of toilet wine too, please.
Nah we use soup glasses in this crack home
red wine glasses also usually have a flatter bottom so that you can heat it up if needed by holding it on your palm with the stem going under
I just put the wine box on top of the dish washer
That’s a complicated way to say “cool” and “cooler.”
Not to brag, but a quick calculation reveals that I have over 3000 hours of pooping experience, so yeah, I know some stuff about pooping 😎
I have a lot of experience with ignoring my problems.
Do tell
