Avshalom posted:and yeah the food waste was so depressing. at least feed it to some chickens or something, come on I always thought the food waste from a restaurant was bad until I worked in a del monte corn cannery for a month! You could feed nations with the waste they produce on a daily basis!!

Avshalom posted:and whatever i do doesn't even matter in the end because trump is president and if we don't all die in a nuclear war tomorrow we'll be wiped out by destruction of the biosphere within a few decades Actually it's alot worse than that!! What will happen is that we'll push our planet past the point of no return and it will become like venus, permanently!!

Avshalom posted:byob is a horrible place, it's filled with the same sort of nasty malicious hateful individuals that populate gbs but while gbs posters claim to be joking when they act like psychopaths, byob posters deny they ever act like psychopaths at all and insist everything is happy and friendly and not just a desperate, vicious struggle to feel a bit of personal fulfilment by clawing their way to the top of an internet community at the expense of everybody around them People just need a place where they can distance themselves from the more toxic environments of SA before they can even begin to realize how they were contributing to the situation.

What do echidnas eat? Enchiladas?

Octatonic posted:I grew up on a steady diet of documentaries about the great barrier reef and monotremes. I wanted to be a marine biologist really badly, but instead ended up becoming a teacher? I've come to realize that I'd have been under-funded either way, so whatever. I still need to learn to dive though, for when I'm one day living in a non-landlocked state. I suppose if I wait long enough, the ocean will come to me... You can still pursue your dreams of being a marine biologist while being a teacher, I don't know if anyone's told you that before.

cinci zoo sniper posted:the problem is usually the opposite, that you get handed teaching/administrative responsibilities while all you wish is to be a researcher It's because talented teachers are in high demand worldwide.

Octatonic posted:Man, I really really don't want to go back into academia though. I'm not about to get started on a phd in my late 20s while research funding, especially climate/ecology adjacent research keeps getting cut. (Not that I'm that great a situation where I am either in this regard!) Who else is going to save the oceans? It's got to be you.
