Try again but now making a genuine effort to not sound cryptic and obtuse.

Words spoken without the intention to be clearly understood by the majority listening are just empty sounds formed by warmed air escaping ones mouth.

Depends on who you ask and the background of your question.

Yes

It is undeniable in current day the horrors industrial farming creates and inflicts on millions of sentient beings to sustain a business that was originally fomented in order to supply food for a post-war world where several countries were rendered with little or no usable land for farming.

The traditional model of farming, where animals were an integral part of a production chain that kept the land itself alive and reduced waste to a minimum was destroyed to give place to a highly destructive model where lowest cost, hight profit margins and speed of production is absolute.

In this process, thousands, if not millions, of landrace animals, along with heirloom seed varieties, went extinct and were lost. Petroleum products and by-products entered the daily life, from food, to clothing, to essentially anything imaginable. Not because those were better but because it was cheaper and protected interests.

Knowing this and still leaning heavily on an animal protein based diet with no concern for its toll on our collective ecosystem and the suffering it creates is nothing short of regrettable.

No

Meat is cheap. Artificially cheap but still. Processed foods cheaper; with meat in it, even more.

Many people throughout the world do not have access to the means to have a fully exclusive or at least heavily based vegetable diet, either because of the environment they live in or simply because they lack the means to afford it. Many people in developing countries still depend on cattle to provide food and raw materials, if not on hunting, trapping and fishing. Even more people, in rich, developed countries, don't have the money to afford a proper diet, even less a vegetable based one.

These people are as worthy of living as any other. It can not be taken against them wanting to survive.

Maybe

Some people aren't aware how much their personal decision can have a meaningful impact.

Others don't have the time or hability to extract from vegetables meals that can truly satisfy them and don't want to resort to ultraprocessed foods. Others are simply too deep into a cultural mindset that blocks them from experimenting.

It is just another type of barrier. There is a degree of lack of interest and effort in this stage but we can't (shouldn't) hold against people their personal circumstances, which adds poorly when it comes to changing minds, habits and cultures.

Take your pick.

That's not a doomer in my understanding. The doomer is the person that does not care, simply put; they're the guys rooting for disgrace and misery, waiting for the "I told you so" moment. You're more of an prepared pessimist.

I respect that feeling but quitting is not an option, is it? The same with putting down those trying to make a difference, no matter how small.

Heat shock. I know those leaves from afar.

Temperature. You had really low temperatures followed by a sharp hike. That induced thermal shock. Are you having cooler nights with some humidity?

And you are right; those are in the nightshade family; they enjoy full sun.

They seem to be getting sun burn; I'd change the watering schedule to the late evening and allow the plants to get more sun gradually, especially in the morning.

Give the plants a supplement to encourage new foliage development.

Really? I remember seeing some brit porn clips in the early 00's and everything looked really hot. Good looking girls, lingerie, threesomes, really raunchy scenes with anal, AtM, DP, etc.

They're trying to turn the clock back?

Years ago, I remember watching a documentary on Discovery where it was said the UK was positioning itself to be the powerhouse of Europe. Did that ever happened?

Follow-up: is there something that distinguishes UK porn from the porn of other countries?

Finally, in that same documentary, there was a segment about the UK escort and adult entertainment industry, with a particularly easy to remember image of a red phone booth, which were by the time already largely unused, plastered with stickers advertising such services? Is that still a thing? Or has that industry waned or gone more underground?

Free tip: every now and then, dump some bleach down your drains. It dissolves hair and the fat from soaps and creams.

I won't. I do not have the slightest clue on what you just said.

My take: people are too lazy to think. The majority acts as toddlers, easy to distract and quick to show a temper if their wants, ideas or preconceptions are not met.

Oh, and professional sports should be banned tomorrow. Be active to be social and healthy, not to live under the thumb of sponsors and the scrutiny of fans. Professional sports are also terrible for kids, as the adults already in the sport, acting as coaches or aids are in it to move up the ranks by finding the next talent and showing how good they are.
