I've seen something about the voodoo dolls saying that they were not use for curses but rather the opposite.

They were basically a physical medical file used by folk doctor.

Folk doctors would make dolls for their regular patients and add needles to symbolize their illness and keep track of it.

There is several wild cucurbitacae in the Caribbean, for example you can find this one:

Cucumis anguria Linnaeus

It's called "Ti konkonm" which mean small cucumber in creole

Thank you for the warning.

So let me share my experience to balance it out: in my village there is a tiny building by the road that used to be a gas station in the 50s/60s.

Today the main road has been diverted so only local traffic is passing by and the station has been closed for decades.

10 years ago a group of people decided to transform the building, they got money from the town for paint and changing the window and now it's like a little free library but for books, toys and clothes. The whole village is using it.

A lot of it is kid clothing, it's always open without anyone to supervise it and people are respectful, it stays clean and people don't storm the place to resell what they can.

Actually this is a great analogy.

The fact that everyone is using cars now make everyone more miserable. It's impacting health, mental health, maintaining car infrastructure bankrupt cities ...

Children cannot play in the streets anymore which is impacting their development, they have less social interaction with other kids ...

I'm not old enough to have know life without cars, I trust the scientists that studied the impact of car centric infrastructure on people life.

They're monolingual and anything written in English isn't valid since it's not the official language of any European country.

Checkmate!

This is specifically why France developed their nuclear arsenal under De Gaulle.

De Gaulle believed that the Americans could not be trusted to defend Europe, he was afraid that if the Russians would attack Europe with nuclear weapons the US would not defend us.

I like to mix mowed and unmowed parts of my garden.

It keeps the biodiversity but does not look abandoned.

Something like that :

ainsi mieux protéger nos enfants

This is to protect our children of course.

As usual, so anyone who is against this law can be depicted as someone who is supporting pedopornography.

The initial ranking criteria is litteraly how long of a drive is the restaurant worth.

  • ** Excellent cooking, worth a detour

There is absolutely no green way to extract all the material needed to build a datacenter.

There is plenty of green ways to raise cattle, however with these ways you can't feed everyone beef at almost every meals.

He could be seeing a speech therapist in too, but one is giving him technique and exercise in how to improve and the other is helping him get practice.
