A couple of weeks ago I was on the train for a short journey and the only other visible passenger wasn't wearing a mask. Bizarrely he put one on as he left the train and went through the station buildings. I always wear one in shops and even when I had a haircut this morning. That proved a little tricky when the clippers were working in close proximity to my ears! It's not too much to ask that everyone should show a bit of consideration to others but life doesn't appear to work like that. First day of compulsory face masks on public transport proves patchy

Furthermore, that most of the kids' costumes will fall into one of two categories: healthcare worker; or, bandit (bank robber, train robber, IRS agent...etc.) |

Too bad they usually get away with this until after they reproduce...

I've never heard of this, and can't tell if it's a doable commercial practice or a huge hobby bonsai...

I think "hobby" of late.
It reminds me of the circles of redwoods that rise from old stumps. |

Yeah, "lumber production" is hard to buy.
Maybe chopsticks but they use hardwood (birch) or bamboo for that.

This looks like a variation of pollarding. It used to be a common technique for producing firewood

I never heard that term, of course we always had plenty of firewood, that's what my grandfather and my uncles did all day, cut 'em down, cut 'em up, haul it into the city to sell.
