So you do not live in a forest? ok then: living first hand with it: our bird populations and feeders are exploding right now with birds. it has been an unusual summer with birds and the territorial battles. several more nests. lot more owls, squirrels too.

it could also be that bird populations are not dipping but shifting depending on many factors of liveable areas(noise pollution affects birds a lot). And conservation efforts which are being done successfully in different parts of the globe. if they are being reported as fewer somewhere, that is just one place.it is not everywhere and it is not all experience. bird population is one of the hardest ones for studies to nail down because of this so most they can give is an estimate. anyone giving you an absolute of all birds on the planet only do so for gaining money for saying such.

you dont have to take my (or anyone’s) word for it though: you can experience the wild life changes on the land first hand. go chill in a forest. do it often in several different forests. or do what i do: live there and travel to others often. see the patterns.note the patterns (fantastic for getting out of one’s head)

you dont have to just command someone to only write the experience of how you should experience life for you. especially if it is just one side of the story.

live positive i say. dont just read postive. free the brain from the shackles of the indoor news (especially of news that is about your area) and go see for yourself. in fact it is your duty to demand of yourself to follow up on news you hear by go seeking it out to know for yourself. feed the brain. dont just have others feed it for you.

plus it is worthwhile to see if the news has gathered all the facts or feeding you a narrow perspective.

A lot of people write a lot of lies to get an emotional response to control others. this is how news is today. so better not just read but demand of yourself to go see it for yourself in local areas that are easy to get to. bird populations are one of the few things in science they cant do absolutes on. i know this as ive followed up with professors behind the scenes out of personsl interest. there is a lot of money changing hands to speak in absolutes. And if this interests you it is your duty to also find and understand those nuances when a news story is written.

Not over this last season

There was a massive boost up north

bird populations are also soaring

it could be worse. she could have gone on a date with one and they say something really sad like “all the women on there just want sex. I want something meaningful”

oh honey…you have been hitting up all the bots.

there is a point where most people go “this might be a scam” but there is a special few that go so far to give it a whole backstory.

That’s a lot of words for someone who claims they aren’t a control freak obsessed compulsive sociopath.

Over online bickering with a stranger.

Get help. Seriously. At least For the people that have to put up with you in rl.

You need to get over it bro

You’re so obsessed with me

Get off my ass and come to peace with it.

What are you? Our boss? Running everyone else on a quota? More than one person can be an asshole that needs to be dealt with.

for anyone wanting to see where to shut down some features

well apparently they reached their care quota of the day and all of us must follow.

popular? among who?

never heard of it.

he was exiled. not exactly chopped.

ok so you said you legitimately didnt know what i meant. i see you played ignorant as a bad faith move to waste my energy in a shitty little flame war. you can go huff farts troll.

You said 40 mill is less a target than 350 mill hence why you think it’s preferred to travel by the 360 mill as if they’d take any interest of you.

I’m correcting you on this. The 350 mill has no interest in anything they already get within their own country. You can’t compete with that. You’re just forking over money for having the luxury of transit and tariff and no benefit of trade with the 350 mill.

yeah it seems no matter what they are all in bed with eachother. it’s a real thin plank we walk here. i am just hopeful we see more alternatives spring up that throw this power ball off it’s tracks or another election settles it a bit easier for more alternatives.

hopefully Canada can get closer ties to europe (who i understand are not perfect either) but as far as sustainable survival would likely be a more comfortable fit.

If you look at all the current e-commerce alternatives : they are all dirt to dirt. shop just doesnt happen to be american dirt if you’re attempting the route of voting with the wallet.

unless you have a good alternative. i’ll wait for you to post it to help others find better options.

youre channelling through a large country who are shackled to their own country’s stuff. it isnt going to get the acknowledgement you think it will get there. US are simply benefitting from being invoved in the supply chain without having to be a trade partner.

i have a polar watch (finland) i notice that any of these alternatives are taking a lot of strides the moment they get support.

will check out this UNA too!

For anyone interested about companies that have made massive strides since the tariffs:

alt for google : proton (switzerland)

alt browser: vivaldi (norway/germany)

alt search engine : qwant (france) ecosia (germany)

alt for note taking : joplin(england)

alt for win : lunix. (global) -free

alt for mfp: kazio (new zealand)

alt for fitbit : polar (finland)

alt for phones : fairphone (netherlands /china)

alt for github : codeberg (germany)

alt for amazon : shop app (shopify canada)

alt for music : deezer (france)

for books : kobo (canada)

alt for ms office : libreoffice (germany) free

alt card wallet : catima

alt for cloud: nord(lithuania)

alt for streaming : make a jellyfin server - free (throw it on ubuntu (england) start hosting your own stuff local). i suppose also plex but that is a californian company.

alt to paypal : klarna (europe) - that said we still do need more ecommerce to be supportive of alternatives for this and card wallets other than google pay. this is really lagging behind.
