That’s because if you want to sell raw milk you have to follow a ton of rules and then it’s a perfectly safe product. I wouldn’t drink raw milk from non-certified farms either.
At least in Germany you can only sell it within 24 hours and you have to test it like all the time, plus you can only sell it directly at the…

Organic means more space for a cow, they’re actually allowed to go outside (there is no guaranteed pasture with most conventional farms and it depends where they’re based and how big the farm is), they’re allowed to socialize (which is hugely important, because cows tend to form very strong friendships), they get…

But he is the past and while it’s perfectly fine to see him as inspiration, it feels odd complimenting an author on how he is not his own person, but a mere echo of some big name.
The present should belong to different names, especially since the genre really has entered a golden age.

The Director's Cut makes it a decent movie

Thank you :) Tbh, I thought the hate comments were hilarious, that’s why I didn’t flag any. I especially loved the one trying to invalidate my comment with questioning my knowledge of the genre. That is some A+ gatekeeping nonsense

I had the reverse reaction to Walmart’s brief stint in Germany

I'm doing fine, thanks for your concern. :-)

You know...it’s always interesting how others react when you don’t put certain authors on a throne. Thanks for the confirmation and making me laugh.

Oh pleeeease, you really want to go that road? Really? Well, I won't.

Thanks for the explanation. But if it shouldn’t be relevant, it shouldn’t be a pro argument for why it’s valid to call an author a version of another author. But that’s admittingly nitpicking (and it’s cases like this where I’d likd to be more fluent in English) and it still stands that while I read the blurb and was…

We do not need another Heinlein. ;-)

The blurb is a weird one. Heinlein is great, but what does it even mean? Sounds more like someone desperately hanging on the old days.

I’m currently reading Empire Ascendant and caaaaan’t wait for this one. The cover looks fantastic.

I love how it took almost three seasons for them to become friends and then you get something like the season 4 final. That scream.....

It was my first true SF love. I enjoyed TOS and Next Generation, but damn was I hooked when it aired. It was so different. “Who monitors the bird” is still one of my most favorite SF moments. Also Vansen, one of the great women of this genre, just a wonderful and matter of fact leader.

Adorable. But I don’t want to know how I’d fare with an automatic tbh. ;-)

Is there some kind of certificate or something similar in the US that is independently controlled and exactly defines what organic food means and who is allowed to sell it?

Why would you think someone has to hide something? Sounds completely insecure.

Homemade for the win, especially with crushed peppermint leaves and pomegranate seeds. And don't forget to drown everything in olive oil (the good organic stuff)

Me, too
I get to know a lot of stuff, because I'm friends with some people who've been playing it for years now and I love reading all their stories, but I doubt it'd be as much fun for me playing the game.
