It needs to be said loudly every day, in the media and at the protests, that Hamas could stop the attacks if they immediately returned all the hostages ( or bodies as we suspect). Israel has said that for months, and Hamas refuses.

Mornin’ All. It is 48* and a little humid here. It rained a little last night, which we sorely needed. 
Not much news from up here. I am not going to see my grandchildren today. They are castrating piglets. I figured I’d pass. Oh, and I am sure the girls are not helping with the castration. But, it is at a neighbor’s house and they have children to play with. 
Well, hope the weather is good where you are.

I imagine the castration is by rubber banding their little testicles. Not messy.
Anyway, have a nice day, and I hope that you see the grandkids sooner rather than later!

Wow, aus, that’s enough to make me go vegan! 
Though suspecting that such a painful procedure–if performed without anesthesia as used for other mammals–is to reduce aggressiveness, I still looked it up….
“Castration of male piglets is a common practice in many countries and the vast majority of male piglets in the United States are castrated. Castration is performed to avoid boar taint in the meat of sexually mature male pigs and to reduce aggression toward other pigs and caretakers.”
My apologies if I sound too Karenish here.

No need for apologies. The whole idea turns my stomach, but then, I don’t have to do it. And, I don’t eat pork or beef. However, I do like chicken and I don’t want to be a part of killing and dressing one of them. I am glad though, that my DIL is tough and can handle all that stuff because the time may come, and I think it is coming soon, when she may need to be able to do it to survive and to fee her children.

Survival skills are something the younger generations will likely have to use in the coming years, especially if Biden is re-elected (HORRIBLE thought!). 
Our grandparents were used to doing all these things to survive. They, along with our parents went through the 1930s Depression and then the food shortages of the war years. Bless all of them for their hardiness.

The fact is that throughout most of human history, we raised and killed our own livestock. Heck, our neighbors were farmers, and I witnessed many a chicken kill and, although I didn’t witness it, they also killed and ate their own pork and beef. We had laying chickens when I was ages 9-15, and my parents killed and prepared chickens for stewing.
What am I saying? That it was a fact of life until about 60 or 70 years ago. If you had been raised seeing animals raised and harvested, you would think nothing of it. And it is most humane to raise your meat on your own farm and harvest them there. Taking a cow or pig in a truck to slaughter raises their anxiety, while dispatching an animal with one shot to the head in familiar surroundings means that they were never mistreated.

On the Justin Rhodes (YouTube) farm, they name their animals, then they call the meat by the same name. Recent example: Studmuffin hamburger!

I grew up with a number of cousins who showed livestock in 4-H. They loved the process until it was auction time. I saw male cousins 14-15 years old cry like a baby when they sold a calf at the sale. They got attached when they showed these animals. They raised them and worked them every day almost from birth until that last day. I guess that’s one of the things that bothers me about these nutjob PETA people who have no idea what any of this is all about. They just have to protest something….

I don’t know for sure, but I think that raising 4-H livestock is a bit different, because a child raises a particular animal, so it’s more like a pet than one of a herd on a farm. Don’t you think?
