They had a very good understanding of the carrot and stick approach.
Even a composting outhouse sounds better than that. We used dock leaves when we were kids, playing in the woods. I've never heard of carrot and stick though. It sounds painful.

It’s organic. Make stuff for the internet that matters to you, even if it seems stupid. Do it because it’s good and feels important. Put up more cat pictures. Make more songs. Show your doodles. Give things away and take things that are free." - Maureen J

Heh, never read much of your blabs before. I have to say I think it needs 20% more alarmist rantery Seth, which is a criticism but a constructive one. You're at your best when you're bordering between reason and kill-spree. Straight forward political criticism is a bit mundane for you I think.

For what it's worth.
