  • I have a family friend who grew up near a creek. He loved bass fishing, so when he heard that invasive carp were eating bass eggs he took that personally.

    He’d go out night after night bow hunting carp. He’d kill them and throw them on the bank for animals to eat. Dozens of these huge fish every night for years.

    Eventually he cleaned out several miles of the creek by his house, and it’s some of the best bass fishing in the area.

    tl;dr - He got a degree in fisheries.





  • my boyfriend and I, who were both big fans of public transportation, ended up buying a car because we literally had no other choice.

    As a car guy, this breaks my heart. Because you probably bought something reasonable and practical and egg-shaped.

    Nothing that stirs your passions. Nothing you look back on in the parking lot and think “I can’t believe that’s my car.”

    As someone who thinks cars can be an art form, forcing people who don’t want cars to buy cars dilutes that art. Like making amazing designers make ads for bottled water or something.

    Cars should be like horses are now: Beautiful and running in a field. Cared for as cherished pets. Not resigned to bumper-to-bumper traffic, waiting for someone who hates driving to attempt to merge with a “Please let me merge before I cry” bumper sticker, herding the semi who’s just trying to do their job and not kill someone who should not be driving.
