Wow. I just realized I need a suspicious Romulan mommy in my life.

Imagine if Obama’s administration did this. The Republican would collectively and simultaneously cream themselves (ew).

You too, can realize your dreams of running a concentration camp turned space strip-mall! Sign up for the Federation Navy today!

I wouldn’t put it past them

Where did you get this picture of me?

Weewf. Why you got to call me out like that? I was reading at a grade 10 level in grade 5. Now I just post stupid memes on the internet.

This, right here, is why I hated botany.

POV you drunkenly sent messages on TEAMS and how HR has a lockout device on your laptop

I am an environmental consultant, too. You’re correct that they often re-route or change their designs based on habitat, though this isn’t always the case. They can determine if the impact is major, or if it can be reversed or off-set. An example would be a mine that goes through woodland caribou habitat. They’ll still mine the fuck out of it, but then they’ll be required to reclaim it back to what it was. The rub is that people think reclamation is a fast or sure thing, but it’s neither. Some ecosystems, like those that support caribou are really hard to re-establish, but operators can get on with a commitment to restore, and a couple of contingencies in case the reclamation doesn’t work.

@terranoid@lemmy.cafe yes, this is a thing in consulting, but often with the smaller, more cowboy firms. Bigger firms can push back a bit, and say ‘hey, look. we really don’t recommend this, here’s the risks’ or flat refuse service if they can take the hit.

@owsei@programming.dev yes, generally, consultants are hired to do things like rare plant surveys or wildlife sweeps. It’s not the EPA or other regulators doing this and the operators don’t have the capacity or expertise to do it themselves usually.

More than likely they do a survey to determine if the beetle is present. There is a whole thing about core and matrix habitat for species at risk, with matrix being less protected.

How would you describe it

Real wood anything is fucking expensive now

My dad had like a 1994 F250 long box - the kind that had the two fuel tanks. Anyway he had a CB radio on it and me and brother used to channel surf and swear at truckers and call false may days.

Lol.

Sorry to hear your mom passed away. Thankfully mine is still with me.

That comeback is darker than a black lab in a cave.

II feel like they need to remake Voyager with Wallace Shawn as neelix

I love a good mom roast. It’s almost a lost art these days, or at least it feels like that.

The only thing I’m annoyed about is the use of the semi colon
