Found another really interesting paper on this idea that animal husbandry was never really practiced in Japan. ". 'As animals are not used for milk, draught, or food, and there are no pasture lands, both the country and the farm-y

That's fascinating - you would think they would have some sort of access to sheep, alpaca, goats, or something that could provide wool. I went down a bit of a rabbit hole and found Japan was still one of the largest importers of woo

The way your body processes food during ketosis is so different from processing "traditional" diets that I hardly think it would be relevant enough to warrant a rebuttal. I do like hearing Mark's opinions on such things thoug

Would you say that it's also important to have infrastructure in place for renewable natural gas? Most natural gas companies have set goals for moving to percentages of renewable natural gas in the near future. The same cannot be sai

Anecdotally, I visited a friend in Hokkaido for a couple weeks and during my time there (as a white non-Japanese speaking person) I was kicked out of two restaurants upon entry for not being Japanese. Racism exists everywhere.

I'm aware how water affects light underwater; I do scuba photography. I'm sorry, but it's simply not "clearly much better than that". It's a lot of effort for very little, if any, visible difference.
