If someone intentionally caused harm to any of my cats, I live near a large national forest, and once you get a few hundred yards off a trail, no one is going to find a body.

Who tf gets a pet cat and doesn’t let it outside?
People that love their cats and don't want them to die young. Outdoor cats live an average of 2-5 years, indoor-only cats live an average of 10-15 years. By allowing cats outside, they're exposed to pathogens, parasites, and dangers that they wouldn't otherwise experience. In my area, there are coyotes, bobcats, rattlesnakes, hawks, and owls, all of which will quite happily make a meal of a cat. There are also cars; they don't tend to be able to stop on a dime.
fertiliser is applied in tightly controlled doses based on aerial analysis
Gotta say, this should be a huge red flag for everyone. Soil quality is declining sharply, and fertilizers simply aren't making up the difference. Switching to robots farming will almost certainly accelerate this.
Use some Rokset on all your fasteners; the only way to break the threadlocker is with heat, and heat would also destroy the bodywork. So you could still replace damaged panels, but you couldn't steal them.
a) I’m not sure about trusting second hand parts
It's pretty much plug n' play for wiring harneses. If you are placing the replacement while removing the original one, it's hard to go wrong. The wiring harness that I bought for my CBR was a little wonky; the service manual covers 2007-2012, but they made some very minor changes for '11-'12. One of those changes was moving a single pin where the harness connects to the ECU. The result was that I had an engine code--knock sensor malfunction--and I had to re-pin that single wire. It was a bit of a pain in the ass. It was annoying mostly because the person that sold it didn't realize that there was a difference.
Lots of 2nd hand motorcycle parts are just fine. Things that are damaged in crashes are usually catastrophically damaged.
multi-part disassembly and - more critically - correct reassembly challenges me.
That's fair. I'm in the process of trying to turn a naked sport bike into a cafe racer, and just to change the headlight assembly, I need to remove the wheel and then the fork. It should be a 10 minute job, but instead it's several hours. When I was checking valve clearances on my CBR, I ended up having to nearly remove the engine to get to the cam shafts. I hadn't thought I was particularly mechanically inclined, but I guess I kind of am?
I used to have a fairly large collection of skulls that I'd found while walking around in the woods.
Not sure what ever happened to them... Probably lost them in one of my many moves.
I dunno, bourbon is nice too. And it has the benefit of usually being a lot less expensive than a Caol Ila, Bunnahabhain, Ardbeg, or Lagavulin. Rye whiskey is another one.
But Jack Daniels can fuck right off.
Oh, yeah, that's Yeezy. He designed it and posted it, IIRC, on the gatalog. Cool dude. He keeps getting tossed off IG for posting leftist shit. You can find some of his videos here.
Those ones are great. The shape is fantastic, comfortable for all-day wear, if that's your thing. Also, their large one is larger than any other metal plug I've seen. They're remarkably hard to find though; searching for NJoy mostly brings up cups, straws, and plastic lids.
Let’s face it, a lot of these people would absolutely hate to be part of real socialist organizing
Oh yeah. I've worked with an anarcho-socialist group, and shit was rough. And I was just volunteering because I believed--and still believe--in their cause. But eventually I had to give it up, because it was so chaotic that I never knew what my schedule was going to be, and I was wasting tons of time waiting for them to decide whether or not I would be useful that week.
I was a member of another group that was ostensibly anarchistic in theory that ended up being authoritarian in practice, and I quickly dipped.
Shit's messy and complicated. Getting groups of people to point in the same direction can be hard without some degree of arbitrary authority. But when it all comes together, it's amazing.
As for the suicide attempt, that’s something incredibly heavy for anyone.
The irony is that some of the people I had mistakenly believed were friends were (are, I believe) in an anti-suicide advocacy group. I guess it was easier for them to say the right things than to do the right things. 🤷 Lessons learned, etc.
Fuck.
Ouch, man. Why you gotta attack me like that?
