The people of New York have a strange relationship to plants.There are less glamorous things that will grow in such places.

The people of New York have a strange relationship to plants.I'm not impressed if you buy them that big at the nursery. Which is what I thought they did. Until I started feeling depressed about the sorry state of my own cabbage efforts... how could they beat me with such healthy broad fractal edged green leaves and so little sunlight... and so many... additives?
Cheating. That is how.

The people of New York have a strange relationship to plants.BUT: that’s when I took a closer look, because the cabbages were even stranger than I had thus far suspected.
can you guess?
that’s right they were FAKE.
plastic cabbages!!
I don’t know if that makes me MORE or less angry. 3/3

The people of New York have a strange relationship to plants.Oh these were gorgeous purple, cabbages, already big and leafy: if they had been just placed in *my* roof garden, they would’ve formed the most lovely heads nurtured by vermiculture.
But no! these cabbages would languish in midtown Manhattan, get pissed upon by dogs and be inedible. It was infuriating.

The people of New York have a strange relationship to plants.The people of New York have a strange relationship to plants. We are perhaps somewhat alienated from nature, but nothing could’ve prepared me for the cabbages. When I first saw the cabbages I was angry.
They were growing in a tree box on the sidewalk in Midtown a place not a suitable most plants, especially a cabbage, and clearly someone had spent like a Sultan. These were big healthy transplants.

I find it interesting that there's loads of people who made a core part of their identity campaigning against trans women being in women's spaces and how it impacts women, who have gone completely silent about Grok being used to undress and brutalise w...Do I need to say “of course she is” —Do I need to say this isn’t how you treat a person?
I’m thinking of so many people who are gone forever without a whisper. I’m looking at every brash and angry conservative voice who is trying justice shooting a person for not being meek and wondering why they don’t realize they are vulnerable too.
Do we keep the gay republicans? the brown ones? what about the ones who can’t ignore mr. epstein?

Have you had enough?Oh LOL. I thought this was noneuclidian stuff. Which I love for the record.

Have you had enough?listen I’ve been around the block with the maths once or twice and you do not need to complicate this with all our exuberant mutations— those “other geometries” are a celebration of that same power of reasoning that may be captured in a simpler context by the solidity of 2+2=4
Also I’m in a bad mood so don’t start with me today.

Feels like something has shifted in the United StatesI agree. But you might be surprised how many people are unaware that things like greenland are even happening due to badly captured media—
Though the trust in that media is at least very low.
-
Have you had enough?I can see how the rationalization works— the whole house of cards, of lies.
But one of the things that I love is actually knowing what happened. For better for worse, I just want to know. So, everything I love cannot survive by rationalizing.
I know what I saw. I know what happened.

In 1984 Winston Smith is taken to reeducation. He says that maybe “the party” can make you pretend you agree with them but in your heart you know some things are true: 2+2=4 for example.
The party man asserts that he has the power to erase even that.
After all, if not? you die. Everything you love will die.
Just start rationalizing it all— really who speaks to a police officer like that? And don’t we all remember how the election was stolen?

Implicitly this is an attempt to either challenge the law, or based on a deep belief that the law should not apply to him.
Which reminds me of the Epstein files, and all of those child marraige cults.
Every time we fail to hold the powerful accountable they increase the abuse.

Right now we have a popular “top ten” phone app with this garbage. Worse than if it were broadcast on public airwaves or put up on a poster in the public square.
This is a worst case scenario from bad internet debates about porn, gore and obscenity laws come to life.
And I feel like the worst creeps I’ve ever known are whispering “actually it’s called eubuphila” as if that were a serious argument.

The law needs to catch up on privacy rights. Especially in the US.
