Making food, producing food, managing livestock, growing grass, making sure that you've got enough silage, hopefully for the winter, which in Ireland could be six weeks longer than you ever thought it was going to be because, you know, climate change.
So all of these things, all of these crafts, all of these knowledge, I don't know, technology can help sometimes.
I think people like us need to, like we are living the dream.
We do get paid very well, relatively speaking.
We don't have to get up at six in the morning.
We are often up at six in the morning.
We are.
often working like at 4am depending on you know like it's not that I work 24 7 but I will accept calls at 2 in the morning 6 in the morning 8 o'clock at night you know what that is the world that I work in right so kind of like farming I pretend to myself and so we are lucky I think we're at this wave where we understand a lot
And we're in this weird cultural phase where people don't want to know.
They don't want to know where their food comes from.
They don't want to know how the internet works.
They just, you know, cognitive load.
It's too much.
They're weighing risk.
Their own concept of risk is a much more bodily, probably embodied one about, you know, walking down the street or what they're doing in their job or their communications.
They just want shit to work.
We've moved beyond that, I think.
I think our food, there's so much product recall.
so much issues around health now and choices consumer choices around food we don't have the luxury anymore of walking into a supermarket and going everything here is just perfect whatever i choose is fine it's not if you're gonna live on twinkies you're gonna die yeah
Not only that, food has got addictive chemicals added to it.
