Looking forward to the illustrious future of "Rhode Island State Council of Churches, et al. v. Rollins" as a case study in "legal cases you DEFINITELY do not want your name attached to."

not common as in "everyone does it," but common as in "if you grow something that looks edible within arm's swipe of the sidewalk, it WILL happen"

2005: do we really have to pack every life lesson into a children's book/movie that traumatizes a generation. hey grownups what if we just talked to our kids

nope nope nope nope that's just Honeycrisp

let your soul be free my guy 🦅

honeycrisp is one of the parents, so it has the Good Flavor & Texture genes (honeycrisp's flavor fades pretty quickly during storage though)

then they made sure to only keep the offspring that keep flavor & can handle shipping. in addition to the tree itself having the will to live

but anyone who says they were abandoned for "no reason" is trippin and we should say it
