An example of repeated farming destroying the soil in even a low-tech society would be the pueblo indians, who came to suffer from the epigenetic effects of poor nutrition a few centuries into settlement of one of their most famous archaeological sites. Were one to line-up well-preserved dead...

Even if these people don't have iron, in the real world, a pacific northwest tribe jndependently developed advanced STEEL metallurgy from merely a few examples of knives they had traded for a few decades earlier. This is like skipping straight from the late stone age to (miniature) British...

These people like baubles it seems. 1. Water bucket. 2. Drop glass magma into water bucket (they already have everything needed). 3. St. Whatever's Tears, wrapped in a jewelry covering its single failure point of stress. 4. Infinite marbles = infinite profit!

The more I read, the more I want to see MC introduce: - aeroponics - hydroponics - aquaponics, which would be the most practical thing for nutrition supplementation in this scenario - fogponics - puddleponics, especially to improve the nutrition of lifestock - introduction of alien foods and...

This makes me think of a kinder and gentler slice of life version of Malazan.

Why did the MC act funny after observing the maid's reaction to inhaling the chloroform essential oils for her carriage-sickness?

Something occurred to me. Just about every society prioritizes feeding children and starving older people and parents during famines. I recall some story from youth about an elderly person in a multi generational household walking off to die somewhere. Rare is the culture that has a story about...

@FeviBevi I think there are many forms of lucid dreaming. Some make it seem like I woke up not from a good night's sleep but from work! Others are vivid but last no time at all. Others last an objective puny amount of time but a subjective vast amount of time at high resolution - my first lucid...

@InfiniteVerisimilitude On the American (Quechan) version of the Persian underground water aqueducts... The Persians had underground aqueducts, and they had an air conditioner driven by the pressure difference between ground level and a chimney. Since the air run alongside the cool mountain...

How the heck did he bread something with a steamer?! I must be missing something... my life is a lie... I'VE BEEN COOKING WRONG THIS WHOLE TIME!!! AAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!..... As an aside, lookie here https://www.edenfoods.com/articles/view.php?articles_id=207 if an American wants to make something...

While re-reading this manga after reading the wn, something occurred to me. The in-universe rules seem consistent. I don't think it was covered in the manga, but in the novel, the heroine, Yunis, is virtually invulnerable to the point that a nuclear weapon wouldn't be able to kill her even if...

I imagine the town being called, "TOWN, the land of demon lords," and I imagine the townspeople doing traditions and holding festivals about their town pride about hosting generations of demon lords. Basically they have become dependent on a NEAR DEMIGODLIKE POWER CAPABLE OF SUMMONING...

I've been going crazy making soups and bone broths for the past month, it should be a part of my diet but hasn't been, but WHAT IS OATMEAL SOUP what blasphemy is this

Is this done by the same guy or artist who did rokudashi Akashic Record? The character designs and the overall flow seem less cliche'd/cardboard and rather interesting. I like not killing the bad guy here. The bad guy isn't a psycho, just a mage. Mage's are like a thousand years old and...

Three competent knights become one shrubbery-incap'd blubber, one ad-hoc therapist and one shaking and increasingly-confused generic swordsman. Awesomeness.

The Shakespearean is amazing.

Page 6 is excellent taken out of context. I kind of want to restitch the panels in this Manga randomly to see what happens to the plot... or to anything.

She's probably an agent for paranoid-spy-bustier-mc-side-chick (I have no idea what their names are). Yada yada will pass, all the girls will die and return to lv1, and welp time for harem hijinks to raise everyone's levels all over again. If you have four girls and nine levels to gain each...
