The littlest Narc

NOFX Oxy Moronic

eric3579 says...

I've been called an oxy-moron
Because I question which drugs our war's on
Why are there more drug stores than liquor stores
You can score on
The healers have become the harmers
They're just pharmaceutical farmers
What we used to call dealers
We now call doctors
I might be a seedy cynic
Cause that crack house is now a clinic
It's time they change the name of the oath to
The hypocritic or the parasitic

It isn't adder-altruistic
By over prescribing
How can we fight them in a [?]
I'll throw a proz-accusation
With a sub-keta-meaning
They'll say my fears are quaa-ludicrous
They should be ati-vanishing
With every demurr-altercation
They'll have a good xan-explanation
You're just cialis-tated
Cause we made your dick deflated

It's oxy-moronic
It's oxy-moronic

It should be doctors getting busted
For their klon-opinions we trusted
We're not the sinners there the ones
That served us the vico-dinners
I don't want to be an alarmist
But in that harmacy there's a harmacist
And those scrips are making us [?] minded pacifists

It's oxy-moronic
It's oxy-moronic
It's oxy-moronic

Don't think that I am being crazy
The medical industrial complex
Keeps us vi-aggravated and hard to come
Because of perco-sex
How can we hydro-condone
Their blatant misconduct
They don't care for patients
They care about pushing product

Are you oxy-moronic
For wanting your daily chronic
And making your mom's house hydroponic
You're oxy-moronic

I've been called an oxy-moron
For getting my metaphor on
Linoleum is the floor on
I'm an oxy-moron

It's time to be alarmed
We're not being healed
We're being harmed
Our country's being factory farmed
It's Oxy-moronic
It's time to sound to alarm-a
We can't put our faith in karma
We got a common enemy
And they're called Big Pharma

And it's oxy-moronic
And it's oxy-moronic
It's all oxy-moronic
It's all oxy-moronic

Daily chronic, now most of your house is, okay
"Most of your house is" what does that even mean?
He's turned most of his house into hydroponic
Why wouldn't he have turned all of it into hydroponic?
Well cause he lives there
"Now all of your house is hydroponic"
Most is sappy
Really? It's like saying maybe
How about "Now your mom's house is hydroponic"
Yeah! That's fucking way better
God you fucking woke up
Come on Mike, where you been
Where you been all month?

Monsanto, America's Monster

newtboy says...

That is clearly not true. It may be one of the less toxic human made functioning, profitable herbicides, but that's not what you said by far.

Roundup is not a pesticide, it's an herbicide. Conflating it with pesticides is ridiculous and incredibly misleading. Roundup is used to control weeds and remove genetic 'contamination' of specific crops. EDIT: Many of those crops are genetically modified to act as pesticides without spraying chemicals, which is a good reason to want to limit cross contamination in either direction.

Other alternatives are no chemicals at all, or only ecologically safe (usually natural) chemicals. I don't use chemicals on my farm, I weed, I spray horticulture oil, I spread ashes, I grow twice what I can eat so some loss to insects won't matter, and I remove insects, slugs, and snails by hand. It takes more work, but the statement that the only alternative to Roundup is worse chemicals or agriculture collapse is completely and obviously false and indicates a total ignorance of the issue you speak about.

"Modern Agriculture" today means hydroponics, aeroponics, and aquaponics, none of which can benefit a whit from Roundup. You mean to say "Industrial Agriculture". The collapse of industrial agriculture might not be a bad thing, as it's incredibly destructive and produces a sub par product. More people farming on smaller farms puts more people to work, makes better product, and makes the people who work on the land feel responsible for it's upkeep, not consider it a resource to be exploited as efficiently as possible.

Mentioning Monsanto's involvement in the project is not the same as saying "neither Einstein or Openheimer or others were behind the Manhattan project, it was Monsanto all along that plotted to destroy Japanese cities with nuclear weapons". They clearly implied that Monsanto joined the project as a way to 'cozy up to' the political elite, and it worked.

Where did you hear this ridiculous hypothesis about their motive? Do you see and hear things that other people don't see and hear? It's clear that the motive in all cases was profit, either directly, or future profits secured by 'making friends' in government by cooperating with them or by forcing farmers into untenable contracts and positions where, in some cases, farmers that don't use Monsanto crops were sued because Monsanto said the pollen that pollinated the crops came from a neighbors Monsanto crops, so the seed belongs to Monsanto. Monsanto does not set out to cause damage and harm, they simply don't care if it happens as a side effect of their profit making methods, which they will protect with any means possible.

Just wow, a more deliberately misleading description of the video would be hard to create.

bcglorf said:

This propaganda ignores much more than that. Roundup is one of the absolutely least toxic to human chemicals that agriculture can use. The alternatives are chemicals a lot more harmful than roundup or abandoning the use of pesticides. Worse chemicals or the collapse of modern agriculture don't look appealing as alternatives so the ignorant roundup fear mongers protest too much in my opinion.

And then there's things like claiming neither Einstein or Openheimer or others were behind the Manhattan project, it was Monsanto all along that plotted to destroy Japanese cities with nuclear weapons. You know, on account of them being evil and wanting to see millions of people dead because it gives their corporate heads joy. Just like it wanted to invent pesticides as a means of convincing the public to poison each other for giggles, and getting the state department to experiment on people. None of this had any other motive than the thrill of inflicting cruelty on people, and none of it would have happened but for Monsanto's hard drive to push for these things to be done...

Just wow, a more deliberately misleading video would be hard to create.

Marijuana, Not Even Once

Payback says...

I only tried pot once. Wasn’t impressed. It was good shit, I got wasted, hydroponic red hair iirc, it just didn't live up to the hype. I can see its use for people in pain, to counteract other drug side effects, people with stress control issues. I guess I'm just naturally chill.

Hydroponic Growing

HEROES REBORN | Official Trailer

Payback says...

I agree, the original was well done then all of a sudden they went on hiatus, came back and started smoking that "problem of the week" hydroponic pot laced with "durrr, wut's continuity" crack.

Esoog said:

Absolutely correct. Which is why this surprises me so much, that they are basically continuing the storyline. But maybe they wrote in enough time separation, that they can rehash things? Still, the first Heroes series started so freakin well, I loved that show. Then it just flopped and almost became unwatchable.

I REALLY hope this is good. I want to like it! But I'm surprised so many of the old characters are back. I hope thats a good thing and not a bad thing.

Anyone here like Aquariums for a hobby ? (Pets Talk Post)

BoneRemake says...

@kymbos

I have my mother bringing me some slate rock from her rock garden this weekend as she comes up for Thanksgiving holiday, with that I am going to break it into proper sized pieces and join them together with the remaining marine fish safe sealant I posses. I will have a back ground of 1-2" wide 1''thick and thin, stagger them to make a rock back ground, until a month from now once its cycled I will add plants and once that's settled fish. Live plants add something more to the space, I grow plants as a hobby and have many around me, but to be able to put them in the aquarium and take use of my old hydroponic gear is very welcoming.

Added marine salt today. Sucks playing the waiting game.

How To Grow Weed

Reefie says...

>> ^kymbos:
...or inexpensive. There's no way anyone would go through that process for 'personal consumption; as he says at the start.
Full on.


The setup portrayed in this video is too much for personal consumption - much more likely an effort of that size is to supply friends and family too.

For personal consumption a grow tent, ventilation (including carbon filter barrels), hydroponics, lighting, grow medium and nurtients will typically cost between 750 and 1000 to get up and running. Grow tents are susceptible to high humidity but when due care and attention are applied to the effort then it is possible to overcome the humidity issue without worrying about smell.

Have to say that the difference in quality of personally grown plants is phenomenal. I'll never buy from anyone ever again.

EPA want a Cow Gas Tax! And they don't mean 'gasoline'!

Drachen_Jager says...

Makes sense to me. The only way things are going to get cleaned up is if people pay the price for the damage they do.

Imagine I wanted to start a hydroponics farm out of my apartment with shared water and electricity bills, I use 20x as much of each as anyone else in the building but I share an equal amount of the bill with everyone, I'm rolling in cash, my costs are only 20% of what my competitors have!

Is that fair? Does that make sense? Should one person be allowed to profit by destroying something which is needed by all and everyone else has to foot the bill to fix the problem later? Without a carbon tax on cows you're just passing the problem on from the farmer (who is creating the problem) to the public at large, a public which is too stupid to change it's ways without incentive (like more expensive meat!).

BBC Horizon - How Many People Can Live on Planet Earth?

budzos says...

Vertical farming is the answer. Skyscrapers filled with hydroponics, using all kinds of light and surface area tricks (stuff growing on every surface, four seasons in every building). Requires far less energy and water than conventional soil based agriculture.

And as for fresh water, you can kill two birds and get "free" energy plus fresh water through the use of hybrid solar steam engine\distiller fields. The dominant vertical farming concept will probably incorporate these two functions as well, meaning they will generate their own power and gather\convert their own fresh water.

Smibbo, I wouldn't say there's much difference between agribusiness and pharmacorp. And it's just not true that the GMO's have been well tested before release -- I forget which documentary it was that I watched a while back, but it showed how every director of the FDA is a former board member of Monsanto. Pretty convenient, huh? They just wave these things through.

Dag: I totally agree with you, except where you say that organic food production has a lower yield than conventional agriculture. I have personally seen organic crops significantly outperform conventional ones -- organic growing techniques have advanced a lot too! And most conventional soils are now degraded to the point that they are essentially just an inert medium for soil-based hydroponics.

There are some free ebooks by Dr. Raoul Robinson that talk about breeding for pest & disease resistance -- I recommend Return to Resistance as a good starting point. Dr. Raoul is my uncle; we are currently building an open-source breeding foundation that will share seeds and encourage effective low-tech breeding methods.

skforty says...

Its just craig christ, Jesus' brother.

Because when Craig's in sight,
We'll party all damn night.
I don't turn water into wine,
But into cold Coors Light.
I'm not my brother, I know,
Don't walk on H2O,
But I got hydroponic shit that me and Judas grow.
