There's very little that Pruitt can accomplish in 18 months that the doubling of the US population over the past ~50 years hasn't accomplished way better.

There are plenty of places in New England where you can find much wildlife living more-or-less normally and large quantities of birds and insects carrying on as usual. I live in a semi-rural area and there are no shortage of bugs, birds, deer, turkeys etc. running around all over the place.

But all around is The Sprawl, from Boston to Atlanta it's one large conurbation of thousands of materially indistinguishable suburbs, chain restaurants and strip malls. Wildlife has been shoved out into smaller areas and forested towns with populations under 10k like where I am have become de-facto wildlife sanctuaries.

Organic farming still uses pesticides. Just different kinds:

I would, Bloggsie, I would, but I'm a little busy today. I'm going to f*ck my 28 year old girlfriend in about an hour so I'm a little pressed for time. What are you up to? Do you like girls? Have you touched a woman recently?

Is this your girlfriend?

Scott Pruitt is a member of the bizarre heretical nihilistic death-cult here in America that refer to themselves as "Evangelicals", the more school shootings and dead animals the better. The worse things get the more likely it will get Jesus to sit up and notice and teleport them all to the afterlife.

Like most Evangelical bigwigs he never saw a private jet he didn't like or wanted to buy with someone else's money.

I've seen that you've done some research on the topic of girlfriends, but please try to just answer the questions as simply as you can.

Damn son, she must've hurt you pretty bad to get to this level of misanthropy. What was the bitch's name?

Hardly! But it was amusing to hear you referring to yours as "my girlfriend ."

Ok. Well. Thank you, at least you're honest. Stick with plant biology that's probably for the best.

ess informed people don't realize it, but herbicides are also pesticides. T his could explain some of the absence.

time when the la-ti-da landscape "architects", people with little to none ecological or biology training, were "beautifying" the public roadways by p lanting wildflowers and ornamental shrubbery in the median strips of busy h igh speed highways. These planting were a magnet for insects and birds resp onsible for an enormous amount of destruction. In one instance, the scum th ought it would be cool to plant a hedge of winterthur viburnum along a down town expressway, the berries of which are famously known for making birds " drunk", resulting in thousands of deaths as the birds would stumble out int o the roadway oblivious to the danger.

That's a general term of use I reserve for incompetent and overpaid people who don't know what they're doing :-)

You can put a random noise generator in his room. This can be very effective in masking external sounds. The ear response is logarithmic, so it doesn't take much to overwhelm weaker sounds.

I play one 24 hrs per day. It completely obscures outside sounds, traffic noise, loud radios, people talking, etc. It is a long recording of mountain rain that I downloaded from Youtube. It lasts about 8 hr before repeating and is very peaceful.
