   While the desire to feed wild animals like deer comes from a kind place, it’s generally not a good idea for several reasons:

   Human dependency: Feeding wild animals makes them reliant on humans for food, reducing their ability to fend for themselves in their natural habitat.

   Traffic hazards: Regular feeding can make deer more comfortable around humans and roads, increasing the risk of vehicle collisions.

   Nutritional issues: Human food or even commercial wildlife feed may not provide the balanced nutrition wild animals need, potentially causing health problems.

   Overpopulation: Consistent feeding can artificially increase the local wildlife population beyond what the natural environment can sustain.

   Disease spread: Feeding stations can become hotspots for disease transmission among animals.

   Predator attraction: an increase in prey animals can attract predators to the area, potentially leading to conflicts with humans.

   Legal concerns: In many areas, feeding wild animals is illegal and can result in fines.

   Instead of feeding, consider supporting local wildlife by maintaining natural habitats, planting native species, and observing animals from a respectful distance. This approach helps maintain the balance of local ecosystems while still allowing you to enjoy wildlife.

   If my book has a slip cover on it, I put it on upside down so that when I am reading in public it looks like I am reading an upside down book.

   You can get those suits now, the problem is that they require a water tank, pump system to circulate the water, a heat exchange system and power supply. Not something to easily where on a day-to-day basis and in most situations but IIRC NASA uses them in spacesuits. just like monty you get a tear in a line and the system fails. a quick search and you can get a vest version fairly easly for $300 or so with a backpack for the required equipment.

   Why else would you do that, the only reason I recall doing it for was to fall or run into something and hurl. Of course, falling or running into something was an accident.

   It is likely tea, but a quick search found several brands of instant coffee bags that look and are used exactly like tea, so it might be coffee look up Folgers Coffee Singles Classic Roast Coffee Bags.

    It is likely a tea bag but if you look on Amazon you can get instant coffee bags, so there is a chance that it actually is coffee. I had to do a search just to find out if they existed.
