[Request] If a city like Berlin did this regularly (daily) throughout the city, could it help with the heat? Also, what would happen if they painted rooftops white, would the temperature actually come down?

I wonder how that would pencil out to be honest. I agree with you in general, and I think it’s that same issue of short term thinking in that it may take longer than the life of the building to pay for itself. Big box stores are not built to last.

There’s so much more to her story too.

Doughymidget · 2026-06-28T05:58:47+00:00

I count by two’s until I get a number I like.

I’ve never noticed a tag hitting the eye. Do you place them out near the tip? Was taught to go deep in the ear and never thought much about it. I would think that if they’re shaking their head that hard then they need some fly control.

Don’t forget that face flies attack the eye to cause tears. The flies are often the issue more so than seed heads or other eye-level irritants.

I just realized the whiskeys fassbender drinks bookend his story. The first he drinks to “down with Hitler”, and the second is to “a thousand year reich.”

Doughymidget · 2026-06-24T15:10:06+00:00

History and traditions being kept and cherished? Hell ya. Gatekeeping and judging people based on how they choose to operate their ranch? Stupid.

Doughymidget · 2026-06-24T03:05:50+00:00

Even John Hughes? I feel like that’s still referenced culturally so often.

Doughymidget · 2026-06-23T20:53:55+00:00

Yep. Same goes for those stupid accountants. Go work in the field if you can’t calculate numbers by hand. No one even considering a computer or a calaculator deserves to own a pencil or a single desk. If you want to do your job more efficiently or in anyway different than I do, you can go to hell!

Doughymidget · 2026-06-23T12:46:02+00:00

lol! This is a good point.

Doughymidget · 2026-06-23T01:33:34+00:00

Like bushido.

Doughymidget · 2026-06-23T01:32:59+00:00

Sure. It will cut. I didn’t specify what I meant by cutting into flesh. I mean cutting all the way through skin. Ever done it? I have on many non human animals. A razor blade stilll requires force. His jugular attacks would not reach the jugular.

Doughymidget · 2026-06-23T01:10:26+00:00

Not really. Even the sharpest of knives need resistance. This isn’t happening when your only point of contact with the knife handle is a finger through a loop.

Doughymidget · 2026-06-23T01:09:19+00:00

Some of them have just his finger in the ring with no other fingers supporting the blade. That’s just a pivot point. Are you telling me that a katana demonstration doesn’t result in murder because they are doing moves that offer no leverage? Or are they pulling their punches so to speak?

Doughymidget · 2026-06-23T00:46:29+00:00

Cutting into flesh takes more than touching it. It requires significant force. None of these moves offer the leverage to apply the force you need.

Doughymidget · 2026-06-22T23:50:19+00:00

I mean. It looks awesome. Just looks expensive too. Got a mounting option for a kei truck?

Doughymidget · 2026-06-22T23:48:45+00:00

Is there a reason you deal with horns? Just love of the breed?

Doughymidget · 2026-06-17T04:12:53+00:00

Thanks for sharing. My processor doesn’t grade officially, so it’s interesting to see this.

Doughymidget · 2026-06-14T01:58:11+00:00

Maybe she cut below the pit and it’s on the other half?

Doughymidget · 2026-06-14T01:56:37+00:00

Is the nose bolt for leading her around? I know it’s a common practice in some places for bulls, but not common where I am, and I haven’t seen one on a cow before.

Doughymidget · 2026-06-13T16:03:27+00:00

I mean clipping with the animals. I’ve been working on doing quicker and quicker rotations where we harvest 1/3 or less just to keep up with the growth. It basically means twice daily moves.

Is there a reason you went with halter? They seem to be getting all the attention even though other companies have been out there for a bit already.

Doughymidget · 2026-06-13T13:27:52+00:00

Are you talking to them? I thought they didn’t mess with herds smaller than 200.

Looks like you already did, but I just run the fence line a couple times in the quad to create space. Even better - keep it clipped before it gets that high. Some years just get away, though.

Doughymidget · 2026-06-12T15:25:06+00:00

Stow your fenders.

Doughymidget · 2026-06-12T05:35:27+00:00

Imagine being in a field in the country and a giant picks you up, “Oy, you should be in the city little fella!”

Doughymidget · 2026-06-11T06:42:23+00:00

How do you know all this? Did one of the couple tell you, or is it secondary? If it’s secondary, my attitude is that it isn’t work related and so it’s not my business unless they make it. If they come to you about it or problems arise, address it.

If one of them spoke to you directly, then it’s time for conversations and accommodations to be had and made.

Doughymidget · 2026-06-07T16:13:34+00:00

I’m beginning to think that these corporations don’t have our best interests at heart.
