😸 Royal mousers!

Glad to learn of this. The Brits are wonderful animal lovers but they've a definite preference for dogs over cats.

I lived in England 3yrs - split between the late '80's and mid 90's, but I never knew of the Royal Mousers. (We owned a telly for less than 6 months while there.)

And there ya have it

$$$$ GREED $$$$

And why the public isn't more aware or caring??

What if we started telling outrageous lies about them?

The lies would have to be humdingers to outshine the ones Fox Lies tell.

Wonderful.

Mother nature is indeed a beautiful thing…..
With the exception of how nature programmed us greedy, shortsighted humans.

I've been beating this drum for decades w/friends.

Some listened.

Only 1 friend has 2 children, the rest have only 1, like myself, and a couple have none.

My only offspring, my son, says it's too late for him to add a child to suffer the coming apocalypse. This makes me so angry & sad.

I'm sure there are many here who stopped reading this thread by now.

I do not think we can "conserve" our way back to safety & stability. We must stop our population growth or Mother Nature will do it for us.

The current board members listed on TVA website

Seem to lean Republican but at least, it now has some balance.

(Admittedly, I'm making assumptions based on what I read.)

CFS is hell.

I was finally diagnosed at Medical College of Virginia, Richmond in the late 80's after suffering with the malady for a decade.

The brain fog and night sweats lingered for decades. I even soaked bath towels at night...and went through a pregnancy and raised a hyperactive son without much help. Yep, I still describe it as hell.

Indeed! 👍

They've not seen all the evidence. The gov't has evidence, according to a trusted source, a former military officer who was also a NASA contractor. Why governments are not disclosing all we have/ know so far? The fact that it would alarm most ppl is only my best guess. Then, there's religious beliefs that would stumble to explain other intelligent life.

And why are we not reverse engineering more of the tech? We probably don't know how.

This is why I'll never have a grandchild.

My 36yo son, my only living offspring, thinks it would be too cruel.

It's most sad but I agree. 🥺

Very interesting.

IF we had known about this, we would've looked into this type of "containment."

Thanks for posting!

We just had our first underground fence installed this week. So far, it's working great & our nutty big girl, a 5mo old Lab, is adapting. It hasn't seemed to have deterred her spirit in the least.

And... speaking of dogs, , she is the first dog we've ever had to not seem to understand the concept of scratching on the front door to go out. We almost thought housetraining her was impossible until I ordered rope of bells** for the frontdoor & we taught her to ring them. Magic! No more accidents.
