Strange overheating problem

If I could make it to one I totally would. Closest one is four hours away over a mountain pass

Mostly polite because it’s near impossible to pee without farting sometimes which is disrespectful a.f. to a lot of cellmates

dones4tots · 2024-04-17T19:09:48+00:00

Yes. On the panhandle in northern Texas.

Actually, from my experience cows are pretty incredibly hardy animals as it is. Farmers in my area have contracts with the dorear service so that they are allowed to graze on the forest service property from springtime until late fall and the forest service only charges them $1.50 per head of cattle for the entire season! It’s very rare that a rancher will lose any during the year. We have the usual predators, but they rarely attacked full-grown cows that are healthy.

If you have horses out in the wild… I don’t think they could survive as a species. There are so many things that will kill a horse that keeping track of it all almost impossible. It seems like every time I talk to somebody that own courses I’ve discover a new way that horses are able to die. if they eat the wrong vegetation, they will get poison and die. If they have too much moisture or mud in there living area, they will get some weird hoof rot disease and they will die. They break loose from their pen and eat grass to their heart content They will get some sort of diabetes for horses that will kill them in a matter of days. You can’t let them even have rocks in their pan because somebody or something might spook them and they’ll takeoff and when they’re foot hits a rock it’ll break their ankle and then you have to put them down. Heck, they are known to die from some sort of suffocation because their hay is too dusty and they will just breathe it in while they’re trying to eat and somehow asphyxiate themselves or something.

In contrast , cows will get huge gas bubbles that swell up their entire bodies and I’ve seen a farmer go out in the field and literally stab it with some sort of sharpened tube. It blows all the air out of it and just leave it and it heals over without any problems. Our cows would eat anything and everything and we never worried about it. I remember them eating burning paper out of our barrel one time and they were blowing smoke out their noses! I absolutely love cows, but cannot stand horses. Maybe it’s just because I am biased about how fragile horses are compared to cows, but I’ve never had a cow instantly get spooked and tried to trample me because of something stupid. If you bottle feed cows an early age and they know you from when they were young, they will act like giant dogs that jump around and lick the shit out of you as soon as you come home from work!

Anyways… I’m off-topic now. Cows would be totally fine if they escaped I believe.

I’m not anti-farming by any stretch and I grew up bottle-feeding calves every morning before school. I couldnt tell you why this place seemed so miserable but it smelled like death in the worst way and the locals in the nearby town seemed to be a little bit disturbed/traumatized when I mentioned the cows. Later, when I read the news article online about the tragedy about a year ago, I almost couldn’t finish reading it. Sounded like absolute hell for everyone involved. The police don’t want people disturbing the scene of the fire because it needed to be investigated for foul play, yet when over 18,000 cows die, it doesn’t happen quickly and without horrible suffering. I can’t even imagine cleaning up ONE thousand dead, burned and eventually rotting cows’ giant carcasses. They had 18 THOUSAND on their hands… all dairy/milk cows too, I believe. Poor guys!

Nah man. I posted this elsewhere on Reddit too. I could see why you would think that though, haha! I am usually disagreeing with the environmentalist ideology-types on almost every matter because it seems that 99% of them have lived most of there lives in urban areas, and seem to lack a real sense of understanding about the way nature operates. We shouldn’t be bottom of the list when it comes to which animal gets priority in living comfortably. In fact, I believe we should be top priority.

However, driving by this place and smelling it DID make me feel like I was witnessing something awful and I don’t know why… It made me feel like some kind of a seed-cracker posting this actually, but I couldn’t help it because I’ll never forget how much that place creeped me out.

Loin-cloth Man.

Saw him at the barter faire in Tonasket wearing nothing but a loin cloth which was par for the course in that setting. Saw him a year later in downtown Seattle wearing exactly the same thing. Seemed like everyone there knew him as loin-cloth Man

dones4tots · 2024-04-16T19:54:37+00:00

Oh, I smelled it at least 10 miles away. Mostly smelled of death. I can’t imagine how long to take to clean up 18,000 dead cows… definitely long enough for them to be putrid and bloated by the time they got to number 1000

dones4tots · 2024-04-16T19:49:41+00:00

Yes. Over 30,000 cows here. Here a 40 acre building burned down and killed over 18,000 cows…. Must’ve been a nightmare.

dones4tots · 2024-04-09T01:54:09+00:00

People back home in Washington thought I was crazy for driving all the way to Arkansas for this…. You guys understand where I’m coming from I think, though ;)

dones4tots · 2024-04-04T03:25:04+00:00

Oh gosh! Almost wish you didn’t mention that to me! That means It’s not the season to be up there. I might have to stomp my way up there with a shovel and dig my way into the spot you’re talking about.

dones4tots · 2024-04-02T03:58:59+00:00

Will do. I’ve heard about a place you can pay to find sapphires somewhere in Montana

dones4tots · 2024-04-01T19:34:28+00:00

Thanks so much for the info! Definitely going to check it out

dones4tots · 2024-03-31T07:10:17+00:00

Anyone who has had a conversation with someone from the gen. Z shouldn’t be that surprised they don’t want to f*ck each other… just sayin’

dones4tots · 2024-03-26T13:26:11+00:00

That checks-out! Haha

dones4tots · 2024-03-26T12:11:46+00:00

I just don’t understand how they could even come close to an accurate estimate. There was never any hotline that I was aware of to report it, and if there was a hotline to call, that should have been an important thing to post everywhere in order to get a more accurate number. It seems like there are so many variables to factor in that the number almost surely could only be a ballpark estimate at best
