Yep Straw is a measured insulation in code books, it has a recognized r-value. Cladding and insulation are very flexible areas in building codes.

You actually likely can do that. You have to do a core structure that follows zoning laws, but you should be able to get approval for that as cladding and insulation. So, you could do the lincoln log style video house, then this outside that.

How could you not be? If you can exist, why would anything, ANYTHING, not be able to exist? This means infinity, everything, every which way, exists. If you can exist, why would there be any rules, how would any constraint on infinity make sense. Control, or free will, magic ability; in infinity everything happens: you're a boring layman, you're a magician, you're a transvestite, you're a Muslim, you're a Muslim hater, a trans hater,...... everything, opposites, forward and backward, upside down. Why wouldn't it be that way, look at life, if life can exist why wouldn't everything every which way be able to exist or happen? Who makes that rule, and if something makes that rule that something can break that rule. How do you know your thoughts are under your control, your will, anymore than the moon going around the earth? The part that trips people up about all this, mainly free will, is that time isn't real, there's nothing happening successively, everything already is, every different scenario. This tends to be hard to understand. Think of it like, what is the true beginning and end of time, then, what is before the beginning of time? What's after the end of time? It's obviously a nonsensical question, why? Because there's obviously no beginning or end, this means infinity, which means everything is, and time isn't ultimately a thing, because infinity means everything happens all at once, nothing at all ever happens, and every number of things in between. So, back to free will, 1.) How do you know you create your thoughts? 2.) Everything is all at once, theres no time, so every choice/decision already is(and isn't). If anything exists, everything can/will/does exist; where the fuck is the retarded rule book that says something can't happen, how could a rule of the universe/life/infinity happen? Look around you, how could there be any rule to all this, if this can exist, what sense is there believing there's a rule or limit?
