Rock hounding is a lot of fun! I never knew about it until I moved to Michigan and learned about Petoskey stones

Yeah, I’m less so making at argument about what is currently happening, and more just saying that I would prefer a world in which we fund conservation differently, and we should try to move things in that direction
Shooting a deer that’s lived wild and free, making every effort to make the kill as quick and painless as possible seems like just about the most ethical way to get meat that I can think of. And especially in areas where the deer population is too high, it’s really important for managing the ecosystem. Plus, ammo and equipment sales get taxed specifically to fund conservation, which is important.
I also feel like if you can’t stomach the process of killing and cleaning an animal, maybe you shouldn’t eat meat at all?
By and large, I think hunting for food is a great way to get more in touch with where your food comes from, one of the most ethical ways to acquire meat, and a nice excuse to sit quietly in the woods without interruption. Trophy hunters can fuck off tho.
Not if the funding is made up somewhere else?

Take vitamin D and use a sun lamp for a little bit every day. Try to get some exercise and some fresh air on a regular basis.
Other than that, I’d recommend trying to keep in mind that you are a large mammal, and many large mammals evolved to instinctively be much less active in the winter. Don’t push yourself too hard to be productive when nature is against you. Drink some warm drinks, cuddle a dog under a blanket, and catch up on reading books and watching movies you’ve been meaning to get to.
