Yeah Blundstones used to be made in Australia and were high quality. They developed a huge following globally.

At some point they changed the design, and moved manufacturing to cheaper 3rd world countries.. yet the MSRP didn’t reflect the companies vastly increased profitability.

Consumers are finally catching on, and switching to similar styling, but old school quality. Apparently RedBacks are still decently made.

I don’t want to read all this or get in this stupid argument, but just wanted to say even the Russians are building mobile floating nuclear reactors.

It’s not an impossible task. Technology has advanced to make it much more safe, it just takes political willpower, which means support from the people.

Totally off topic… but I read a few books and listened to some podcasts, then started micro and macro dosing psilocybin about 3 years ago.

I’m not saying my lifelong bouts of depression are cured, but I have never been better!!

It was pretty “grey market” stuff here.. technically illegal, but cops & government don’t really go after people. Happy to say that as of January 1st it’s legal for small amounts of possession as a trial run for 3 years.

I think psilocybin/mdma type therapies could do wonders on people with addictions, depression and PTSD among dozens of other non-beneficial mental health issues.

Buddy that is awesome!

It ain’t easy, we all know it. Set realistic timelines and just kick your ass and do it.. start small, start slow.. just START!

Measurable, attainable, trackable steps. You for sure can do it, many have and they aren’t as strong as you!
