Interestingly and pleasantly, some missing persons were found as a result of this

More likely a teacher will not pull the trigger and be sued. Someone who went into a pretty selfless career will be in jail because they didn't want to kill.

It’s less a clean/dirty water issue and more water surplus/deficit issue where we should conserve water that can be directed to water starved regions; and those regions exist in the west

Yes, some people live in places where water doesn't fall from the sky in vast quantities on a regular basis, and therefore access to clean water is as common and abundant as electricity.

It's actually more expensive to use dirty or salt water. The pipes would have to be replaced far too often to be cost effective.

I heard this from a municipal water engineer from India a few years ago and it was like a slap in the face. When he said it, I thought, “you’re right. This is horrible.”
We should at least be using grey water or recycled water - especially in places such as los angeles. Years ago, I remember seeing a sink/toilet combo in which the sink water drained into the toilet tank.

I live in a literal desert, and I still have enough fresh water to bidet my butt and wash my hands every single time I use the bathroom. I’m so stinking lucky.

In Wales I could just scoop it out one of the many potholes in my road and put it in a bucket next to the bog. Would work for like 80% of the year.
Some builders burst a pipe last week. They pumped it into the road where it sat for a while, it never drained as the drains don't, well, drain. Now it's just being topped up by the daily rain.

God evolved the magic mushroom to be what it is just like he did with our brains and dreaming. The line of social acception with most drugs doesn't make sense to me

It's not an execution.
It's rebuilding an executed person bit by bit
