Here’s that “crazy” Primitive Technology man making more stuff from scratch in the wild. First he shows us how to weave baskets using nothing but his hands, palm leaves and lawyer cane, and then makes a stone hatchet with nothing but rocks, sticks and his hands. Pretty impressive.
A French beekeeper who goes by the name of Nicholas Trainer has trained his bees to develop the first ever cannabis-infused honey for him and his friends.
The people behind the knife should be behind bars for life
Baby boys are being brutally tortured every 25 seconds in the United States.
Let’s not mince words about it. That’s what circumcision is – torture, sexual assault, genital mutilation, unconscionable child abuse, and possibly the worst violation of human rights in history.
The mother of an only-daughter, I really had no reason to research circumcision I had no idea of the horrors it entailed until recently. One of the moms in our peaceful-parenting play-date group enlightened me in the park last week. She sent me a few links, and I dove in. What a can of worms…

A couple of years ago, I came across a story about a mother who still breastfeeds her 5-year-old daughter. I’m not really sure why it was newsworthy, but people were shocked to discover a woman feeding her small child the same way all mammals have for millions of years.

The most disturbing accusations hurled at this woman were those of “pedophilia” and “child abuse.”
Cob or “adobe” houses are cheap, energy efficient, termite-proof, fire-proof, earthquake-resistant, non-toxic, beautiful and can last thousands of years.
Images of a cob house built for under $250 in England two years ago have been re-circulating the internet lately, inspiring tiny-house-enthusiasts and back-to-the-landers with hope that living off the grid on a low budget might not be too far out of reach.
