Their point is that if plants can suffer, and assuming we still want to eat, less plants die or are maimed on a vegan diet than on an omnivorous diet because livestock eats plants too and the conversion to meat is inefficient.
That means vegan diet is the way for less plant suffering even though you eat them directly. In fact it is because you would eat them directly.
Yes, if I said "hand me the scissors" it would just be one tool with two blades. I could also say "hand me a pair of scissors" to mean the same thing. Kind of like how "pair of pants" or "pair of glasses" mean just one of those items. For reference, I am from the US. Not sure if you meant English as the country or as the language. Either way, those usages are nonsense and I will happily keep using them.
Scissor and scissors are interchangeable and mean the same thing. I agree that dropping the plural hurts my brain a little though
Totally, my union got us bonuses in our last negotiations. The lower your salary the higher your bonus. The only way to have it be fair at all as I see it.
You might want to use mesh tape on the big cracks to help stop recracking. I would poke around and see if the whole section is damaged too. You can replace large chuncks of drywall pretty easily and cheaply so no sense keeping damaged drywall if you're doing work anyway.
The biggest issue is what caused the crack to begin with. If it is settling, make sure there won't be any more of that before doing a repair to the crack.

What a great scent memory!
Also, make sure it is rated for the higher temperature.
Poaching in olive oil, butter, wine, etc would give a different flavor. I agree that water poached carrots would be just a slower way to cook carrots than boiling them.
What you're looking for doesn't exist. You are going to have to make a compromise on clean up, upkeep, and/or durability if you just want one pan. I wish it wasn't true, but non-stick fails, cast iron (and carbon steel) requires upkeep, and stainless (or high quality aluminum) can be hard to clean.
The toyota camrys are cast iron and stainless steel. They aren't always pretty, but with the right care they will last 3 generations.
Thanks for putting this into words that make sense. I was trying to describe it as a packing problem and not quite making it to fully sensical.
I am pretty sure you're describing chainmail...
Native plant/ecosystem restoration and gardening especially where it intersects edible plants. Also especially around the 45th parallel in N. America.
