It was interesting to see the above article this morning.
While only observational, no correlation was established between
the size of the dog and longevity. One can only hope that it is both
linear and positive.
I noted there was little mention of cats in the article, and whether
they could gift any of their extra (un-used) lives to their owners -
and whether there is any limit to gifting.
But I wouldn't be surprised if Treasury currently has a team working
on this problem, in order to more precisely determine future resident
pension entitlements (and costs).
It was also interesting to see at the end of the article that they
had performed a parallel study in Korea, where care home residents
were tasked with looking after crickets for a few weeks (and how
there was an improvement in cognitive function and a reduction in
depression).
But you do have to be careful when conducting such tests. It may be
fake news, but I understand What they didn't tell you was afterwards
(once the study had been concluded), they then fried up the crickets
(into a tasty stir fry) and resident depression sky-rocketed.

Pretty sure oil company, pesticide company etc lobbyists are paid as well.
I mentioned vegetables once, but I think I got away with it...........

Last I looked they arent climbing on top of airliners which are loading passengers and using diesel powered firetrucks to hose parliament buildings down with fake blood. And just generally being degenerate fuckwits....
But I agree that none of what you mention should be able to openly get paid for spouting propaganda either.

I dunno, the protesters are more transparent whereas the lobbyists and corporate political party donaters and politicians are as sneaky and backhanded as they come.
Also environmental protesters don't have to go full environmentalist to promote their cause, just as someone who doesn't protest has to start tipping waste oil down the stormwater.

I always do... albeit in everyone else's lunchtime. It's a much easier delusion to deal with than the facts, heh.

Bullshit - the Protestors are as sneaky and backhanded as the Lobbyist - trying to maintain a facade that this is purely a grassroots movement, when it's clearly being funded by certain interest groups.
At least the Lobbyists are honest about who their backers are.
Okay then - let's dissect that for a moment with one simple question:
"When is it good enough?"
