I just looked at the Wikipedia page and I think it’s fine. They’ve cited some sources which detail the debate about which pollinators actually pollinate the plant. Compared to someone who’s got a degree studying plants, I know basically nothing. I’m just repeating what I’ve heard. If they’ve got a list of pollinators and are trying to narrow down the right one, then they’re closer to the truth than I am.

That’s only outside their native range. In Mexico, where they’re from, they’re pollinated by the Melipona bee. Mexico is currently 3rd place in vanilla production at 6.5%, so you’re not wrong to say the majority of vanilla plants are pollinated by hand, but they do have a natural pollinator. In theory, you could introduce the Melipona bee to areas where Vanilla has been imported to cut down the labor time/costs.
I like the idea of having greater screen real estate, but see the product as prohibitively expensive. If it cost as much as a regular smartphone, I would consider buying one for my next upgrade.
That’s just the price of being an invader nation. By definition, Israel can never know peace, only armistices between further acts of war. Unless they manage to genocide Palestinians world wide, they will always face attacks on their invader population/infrastructure/society. It’s a feature of colonization. Netanyahu knows this, but is trying to maintain his position by bringing home an unattainable victory.
Wait, wasn’t Guantanamo Bay where the US tortured a bunch of innocent people? You’d have to be a sick/sadistic psychopath to laugh at crimes against humanity.
It’s an interesting dance they’re doing with this article, because it’s clear that they themselves know why, but can’t say it for fear that one of their reporters will also be jailed in the future. (For those who are curious, the reason Israel is jailing/killing journalists is because it’s currently engaged in genocide and war crimes.)
The Dems are fragmenting and it’s Biden’s fault. He’s too old and frail to be president. Ideally he would’ve taken the route LBJ took and announced his decision to abstain from running a re-election campaign, then endorsed the chosen nominee.
This is such a dystopian way to fine the public.
The Biden administration tried to prevent the war from expanding.
At every point in the development of this conflict, his administration has enable Israel to escalate and expand its military attacks upon countries within the region.
Two things people forget:
- Spanish people were the first Europeans to colonize the Americas, setting the precedent for the violence and discrimination which has continued for the last 500 years.
- The longest lasting Fascist country in Europe was Spain, which was fascist from 1939-1975.
Democracy ended when the DNC undermined the Sanders election campaign so that Joe Biden could get the nomination and become president, but that was only the most recent example.
Before that democracy died when George W Bush and his family stole the election from Al Gore.
Before that it was Nixon and watergate.
Before that it was JFK.
On top of all this, the US and its NATO allies were committing acts of terrorism and espionage against leftist political parties in Europe and America throughout the Cold War.
Internationally the US empire has undermined democracies around the world by setting up puppet regimes across Latin America and the Caribbean, Asia and the Pacific, and Africa.
It could be that some of that data was scraped from FB messenger.
