Oops, that picture reminds me of my own "yummy sins" during our Christmas holidays - lol ...
And regarding the "other cause", I was referring to Rooster's tribulations with some people on Blurtit; you'd better ask him to tell you the whole story, as I don't know what really happened on Blurtit (several friends spoke of fights, scams, trolls, etc.).
As to all the mudslinging and often "beefed-up" scandals and intrigues around political and financial lead and conflicting interests, many opiniated propaganda spreaders, false, fanatised prophets and other activists do not look into facts and the real causes, and they shrink away from complicated analyses, explanations, decisions or taking a closer look into the roots of the problems, preferring to follow the crowds blindly, fighting rather the symptoms than the diseases (no, I am not referring to you, as I know that you are checking things as much as possible, like I do). But when answering too quickly, certain slips of the tongue can happen to all of us, also with jokes - and mess up things, even with the best intentions - you know, "that awkward moment, when ....":
and we are not in the shoes of the other people whom we are talking to or criticising.
Well - let's conclude that "biodiversity" is interesting and essential for nature.
