Seriously. If we as individuals stop using our power (purchasing, supporting, preaching, entertaining) to indulge the commercialized cycle of capital gain we can directly affect our surroundings in ways

I adore that Lysander Spooner quote! For others who enjoy that quote I recommend reading some of Voltairine de Cleyre's work on anarchism and government issues. She wrote in the late 1800's early 1900's

I wonder how they can "teach" them to work anatomically. I've heard of 3D printed guns exploding upon firing, I wonder what the limits of these printed hearts would be.... Nonetheless, interesting

I agree that the effects of GMO plants and non-organic growing practices will continue to compound until we truly have no way to keep ignoring them. We try to get organic and non gmo whenever we can, but

we just saw a turtle in a neighbors backyard, curious little fellow. apparently he kept his neck stretched all the way out when the dog came outside, followed her with his gaze but the pup never caught

Bummer that those plants never came through! Were there reviews saying similar things? I try to check the reviews but sometimes even those can be wishy washy in terms of helpfulness.

That IS a tree trunk of a pepper plant! Amazing. I hope they produce a bunch for ya. Blueberries are so so good, freezing them makes such a sweet summertime snack. This baby made me gawk outloud, he looks

Oh yes! Plus we got to see all the peas flower and twin up around their trellis, a personal favorite sight! And setting up the raised beds for our friend who owns the house is a sweet way of giving back

I've heard as well of plant experiments. Clones or plants raised in the same pot that are then separated can still send signals and know when the other is in distress even when they aren't in the same

That is so absolutely cool! I would love to see the updates on those stems. I told a friend who grows peppers and the idea about knocked his socks off! Makes sense since the plant can go a bit more dormant

I'll agree with @oivas on the point of keeping things open to change as we continue to discover the many possibilities and possible problems we may encounter as the steemit community grows (and the world

Huge fan of the wolf photos! Goats are definitely a favorite jokester but wolves have such a raw power to them. Lovely coloring of that one you "captured"

thanks for the info on the butterflies @papilloncharity I was wondering what they were doing on the rocks as well!

Interesting subject and mind-game. I do think that if we can stick around for long enough (with how much damage we've done to our ecosystem) that we could be able to create some sort of bio technology

I love challenges that push us to explore and engage with our sustainable surroundings! I've got to get some photos of this year's raised bed garden, sadly we will move before we get much of the haul!

Not sure why but the idea of overwintering pepper plants has never crossed my mind! Do you /anyone know about the difference in pepper production as the plants age? I wish they would just turn into giant

My main interests with astrology is understanding how my (and other's eventually) natal chart is in play with the continually changing starscape around us. I know that like linguistics, astrology is a

I've definitely changed my expectations with steemit, and I know also my limits of interaction. (e.g. I don't have the energy or time to keep up with groups where I need to vote every day and read specific

I was so taken back by how much money was raised so shortly. Honestly very happy to see that people are on the same level with that. Rage sometimes is very necessary, the inequality we see between people

I love your style of @in2itiveart, that second artwork with the angel in the center is so lovely, you can feel the energies that you worked into each piece. So glad to see that you are still sharing your
