I’m a “plants, textiles and history” nerd.
It’s invasive to my area, so it’s hard to see that and not get the urge to yeet it from the ground. There are other plants that turn red if that’s your kink.

It’s wild because the proto western Slavs were the first people to live in democracies in the ancient world, even before the Greeks. I guess it’s just more evidence that Ukraine was never Russia?

No, I get that- it’s more just the “why” of it all. With all the political bum-licking I see network television rushing to these days, I wonder who greenlit “we gotta make republicans look youthful” in 1984-5, right when Reagan was showing noticeable signs of dementia.

I’m 43 and remember watching it with my parents. Was there any explanation of how those two “hippies” had three conservative children or was it just a Reagan/Bush republican influence operation? I was too young to understand the political context at the time.

Cindy McCain made a comment recently that implied the her husband and others knew all about Epstein and kept their silence. He protected republicans, not victims.

I’m so sorry for your loss. I’m still mourning the tabby that shared my life for 17 years until last fall. Cats are so special.

Do you think perhaps RFK is the secret identity of Q? My Qanon loving family member became a RFK devotee through that channel.

My Alsatian grandma was Irene. In her family there were relatives named Sylvina, Teressa and an Amelda.

In the 1800s, about a third of recorded deaths amongst pioneers was attributed to milk sickness. Be careful what you let the goats eat. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milk_si...

I know a few of his first cousins and other members of his extended family, they are good people without the need to be asked to be good. His family is ashamed of him.

the plague of the death of the first-born was due to sandflies carrying a phlebovirus. the blood over the door stopped the flies from seeking the first meal on the other side of the threshold- culturally where the first-born slept to protect the rest of the household.

Hard to have a Tezzla parade when the vehicles are all recalled for “bad glue”. Apparently the rest of the Nazis are at home huffing the “good glue”.

I work with several, one for whom it was the family business in NJ in the 70s. He now has streets all over the state named after him, his siblings and his pets too.

I’ve hated Musk since 2018, when he maliciously went after Linette Lopez of BI for exposing real failures in Tesla’s QC testing and production line. Recalls for using the “wrong glue” would likely not have happened if the company addressed the systemic problem of their incompetent leadership.

It’s a fun trick to have but with a downside- I’ve ruined many hikes by pointing out *all* the invasive species.

Thanks! I have an unfair advantage though- I’m a licensed Landscape Architect and have been practicing for nearly 20 years. Embarrassingly better at recognizing plants than I am at recognizing people.

you were mis-informed. Be glad you don’t actually have a pear tree- the varieties marketed as ‘ornamental’ are invasive AF.
