Well not as an individual but the owners/caretakers of the land are legally required to remove it and remediate the area.

I'm Canadian and live close to the border. Growing up my mother would always cross into the states to pick up cheap food like chicken, cheese, milk, etc.

I could ALWAYS tell if it was American chicken we were eating for dinner... Always had an off-putting taste to it.

Voluntary.... What a waste of tax dollars developing something people won't pay any attention to.

Depends on the rules. Some places it would be illegal to disturb anything in conservation areas like parks but other areas it would be illegal to ignore invasive plants and not remove them.

I mean, technically the US was at war under Obama so some of those can be somewhat excused.

Trump matching the number of countries while not being at war is probably a little worse.

Unless you lived in an area that had winter, and had to stockpile resource so you didn't starve for 2-6 month soft the year.

Then someone had to pick the berries and then someone had to preserve the berries or cook the berries and someone had to store or transport the berries as you moved camp around etc.

I hate it when people make it sound like cavemen lived in some sort of equalitarian resource rich utopia.

I wonder how many people living in Taiwan were alive back when China controlled it. Probably 90% + of the population has never known anything but independent Taiwan

I'm sure drug smugglers use a lot of American docks, why not bomb those as well?

I would probably send it a complain to the city.

Although you might not see it often due to the fence (can you not smell it) that much garbage probably is enough to cause substantial pollution being exposed to the sun and rain, and could also pose a fire risk if any batteries or chemicals made it in there.

There's a reason people can't just open up a business as a private landfill wherever they want.

Eh, the bank probably won't be inconvenienced much. I imagine they have insurance, so the insurance company will be fucked, so good cause fuck insurance companies.

Although for something this big the government might be the insurance for the bank, so taxpayers might foot the bill.

So fuck us I guess, we lose again.

That seems like a giant pain in the ass...

What do you do as a renter? Install your Ikea kitchen and then take it with you to your next apartment when your lease is up and they don't want to renew? Good luck finding a place with the same layout

 

I have a grounding wire that is connected to a copper pipe in my house.

Originally, I imagine said copper pipe connected all of the way to the pipe which goes into the ground towards the well.

However, at some point, the previous home owners installed a filtration system and replace a lot of the copper with PVC pipe, so it goes Copper > PVC > Copper > Ground Wire

Is that ground wire still useful? Or do I need to extend it to where the original copper pipe extends into the ground towards the well?

 
 
 

So involved in right wing American politics, it's sad.

 

Bought a house - previous owner moved to a town home so we kept the chickens. There is a decent amount of space on the property, and half of it is a forested hillside.

Any suggestions for a newbie? A new coop is definitely first thing on my list. And a fence around the property.

One of the chickens is an outcast and I feel bad for her, doesn't leave the coop when the others go out in the yard and doesn't eat treats from the ground just food from the feeder. The other chickens get along well it seems.

 

Wonder pick, 3 stamina required, 3 cards out of 5 are ones that I could use. The other two are Vanillish which I already have of course.

Sneak peak... Vanillish! Okay BLG has failed me this time so I will go BR.

The second Vanillish....

Got it!... I hate this message sometimes...
