Shit, is ploughing a girl less environmentally friendly?

I guess there's a serious risk of a baby which is like the least environmentally friendly thing possible

[-] FistingEnthusiast@lemmynsfw.com 57 points 3 days ago

That's why I had a vasectomy

There's no way for me to get a femboy preggers

There are at least two things wrong with your statement.

[-] Siethron@lemmy.world 11 points 3 days ago

I don't think any part of that statement was incorrect

[-] toynbee@lemmy.world 14 points 3 days ago

It's important to note that I said "wrong," not "incorrect."

[-] ZoteTheMighty@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 days ago

Sounds like you need to brush up on your double-negative rules then!

[-] FistingEnthusiast@lemmynsfw.com 5 points 3 days ago

Are you trying to kink-shame me?

[-] Chakravanti@monero.town 2 points 2 days ago

Kind of depends on context, purpose, & objective but they'll say right, defenition and then frame "truth."

[-] kbobabob@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 3 days ago

Wrong hole, no risk really.

[-] Akasazh@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

Depends. There's a a chance of equivalence in methane expulsion, but it depends on the diet...

And the through that is plowed

I… recognize that person

[-] Jayjader@jlai.lu 8 points 2 days ago

username checks out, i guess

Don't hold out on us. Drop a link. (If they are consensually posting content)

[-] brb@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 days ago

Bro has a nice cock

[-] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 31 points 3 days ago

But where do I find a femboy to plough?

[-] DarkAri@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 3 days ago

Currently at work

[-] birdwing@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 3 days ago

Look for your local femboy hooters

[-] edinbruh@feddit.it 8 points 3 days ago

Go on wplace and guess from the drawings where they live. Apparently it's full of femboys and furries where I live, but I haven't found any yet

[-] FilthyShrooms@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago

Somewhere in Texas there's a big Alstolfo mural and someone wrote "if you look like this, DM me" next to it

At least there was, this was a few months ago

[-] kbobabob@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 3 days ago

Maybe they're in the field

[-] anton@lemmy.blahaj.zone 30 points 3 days ago

The main problem is that, not ploughing increases the need for pesticides, currently around 8% of energy used and reduces yield. While not ploughing increasing requiring 3x the pesticides might not be the case, a 20% reduction in yield seems plausible.

The main energy consumption in farming is fertilizer at around 50%, but more importantly half the emissions are related to animal agriculture. Cutting back on that would actually make a difference.

[-] MotoAsh@piefed.social 2 points 2 days ago

and moving away from monoculture mass farming would remove the need for fertilizer. There are many solutions that capitalism doesn't want.

Top tier memes as always fossilesque. Thank you for making the fediverse a better place.

[-] fossilesque@mander.xyz 6 points 3 days ago

Luv u 2. 🥰

[-] PhobosAnomaly@feddit.uk 21 points 3 days ago

their music is awesome!

[-] apotheotic@beehaw.org 12 points 3 days ago

With pleasure, is there like an application process or

[-] ryedaft@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 days ago

15-20% of CO2 emissions? From what? What are you trying to say? Use your words.

[-] anton@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 2 days ago

I had the same question a few hours ago, but I found some science.
Tldr: 30% of energy use is in diesel, and about half of that is for tilling fields.

Rant:
Note that this is energy use, so only CO2 emissions are counted, while methan is ignored. If we stopped farming animals, the effective emissions of the sector would be cut in half. Even if we are unwilling to change out diet, maybe we should look at reducing the amount of fertilizer instead.

[-] alottachairs@beehaw.org 4 points 2 days ago

I was going to do that anyway

[-] Zoomboingding@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Wouldn't gliding be faster?
