Le Potager du Sloth: Gardening without fatigue more than Bio

[Did67]

Another distinction is also to be made between the species and the individual; it is only the latter who presents himself as a sensible being worthy of consideration.

And I would say even more. "At the same time", for sexually reproducing organisms, the "basic unit" of the living is not the individual, but the species ... The mechanisms of living are based on the fact that the species MUST survive, so for it to evolve to adapt, branch out; the individual MUST die for there to be this evolution! No individual, except the mutant carrying a favorable "innovation", has a role as such in the organization of living things. It is only a "passage". It does not exist as such in the living [this would be qualified for bacteria, and probably some other microorganisms, which clone; suddenly, we no longer know very well what the individual is: such and such a bacteria - insignificant - or the clone of such and such a bacterium?]

At the biological level, you're right, but at the ethical level it's the opposite ...

[Did67]

Yes Yes. It is this "contradiction" that I just wanted to underline ... My "coordination conjunction" ["and I would even say more", to play it on me like Dupont and Dupond] was clumsy.

Hence, moreover, the difficulty of "reasoning correctly" !!!

And hence, also, the difficulty that some have in perceiving the "deadly" side of research around an idea of ​​the eternity of the human as an individual !!!! I perceive this as a thought of a "dictatorial" nature: the dictatorship of the fear of death which leads man into the worst torments ... But that's another story. We are here to talk about a vegetable garden. The "problem", in the vegetable garden of the lazy, is that in his deckchair, sometimes, these ideas come from which one wonders where they come from !!!! Even with sparkling water.

The idea underlying transhumanism is not a globalizing concept, offered to all individuals: it includes the desire to free a self-proclaimed "elite" from common constraints; it is in this sense that it is appropriate, in my opinion, to analyze these currents which only extrapolate fairly clear tendencies of uselessness of a large part of humanity, easily replaced by machines. .

Transat? Me, it's couch!

Transat? Me, it's couch!

Oh damn ........... Already a schism!

[Ahmed]

I reassure you! I do not bother in any way recourse to the transat (which I sometimes resort)! At most a nuance that expands the field of inaction that you propose ...

[Did67]

I also reassure you: I make a regular and persistent use of the sofa; lying crooked, with legs on the armrest opposite my head, it's a position that relieves my heart and my chronic back pain ...

But I am obliged to defend the honor of the transat, having made my trademark!

Hello,
this afternoon, cutting of different hedges, and thus production of BRF. Didier, you had already talked about cedar, but to search in more than 1125 pages ... it's long and tedious!
Could you tell me what you know?
Thank you !

You click on "search" then "on the forum"and you type the keyword" thuja "and you will find all the messages that talk about it.

I think :

a) that it is not a true BRF, since it is not a deciduous tree

b) in addition, it has in its composition some terpene derivatives, etc., which are not very positive for the soil organisms ...

So it is rather a "crushed" than BRF. Therefore to be used in moderation, or else with a view to long-term "restructuring" of a soil, without seeking immediate productivity.
