Them: “nah”
Yup. I’m Bo7a.
Them: “nah”
Post it!
Then go draw something and post it.
Or an ant-man themed suppository?
Can we please be friends? I’ll make sure those lovely snacks don’t go to waste. I can bring two grackles, a bluejay, and a couple of raccoons to fill out the party. Oh, and my wife!
With consent, and with cells from someone I know/love - Sure!
Grown from my own cells? Fuck yes.
I also have severe malabsorption and can’t process most veg at all. I have been told hundreds of times that I am lying, and that I don’t need to eat meat. To some of these people it is better for us to suffer than to eat meat, while they claim to subscribe to a philosophy of reducing suffering.
I also choose to believe this is a sleeper with a tuned 454 under the hood.
It was too tasty for snozz. And there were no berries.
For scale:
I don’t have any current pics to show the scale of the tiny garden, but here is an older one. Each side of the 5-sided fence is about 250cm / 8 feet.
Good eye. Sometimes known as butter and eggs toadflax.
Oh wow, I hadn’t thought of day of the triffids in almost 30 years… And now looking it up it seems I missed a 2009 movie. Superb!
Thanks for the catalyst that lead to me not having to decide what to watch tonight :)
Thanks for the note.
It should also be noted that while they are invasive, they have been established (in my part of Canada) since at least the early 1700s. I wouldn’t go importing mullein and planting them on purpose, but I will also not destroy them on my own land. They are like a mini-ecosystem all of their own. And when the bees are done with the clover they can be found on these mullein more than any other plant in our ‘yard’.
And while technically invasive, they are neither aggressive nor hard to manage ( if you are not trying to manage a million square KM of national Park ;) )
In which way am I complaining? I am explaining why calling a valid solution a bandaid might be construed as belittling their very real knowledge of this process. And how that is a regular pattern in a lot technical fields.
And don’t give me this shit about ‘I’m not the person you were talking to’ This is an open forum not a direct/private message.
You can’t expect people who are knowledgeable about this stuff to just forever accept that someone asks for advice, gets told the solution, and then ignores/belittles the person with knowledge.
This is our daily life experience. We get hired to be experts, and get told by non-experts that our solutions are not tenable every single day. Only for that solution to eventually be accepted when the user in question figures out their idea was not useful and the expert was correct.
We have to put up with it at work, we are not obliged to accept it here.
I use one from a random site I googled last year when I was playing with a rope style bubble wand.
