    When my kiddo finally decided (at age 20) that it was time for (most of) his enormous Lego collection to go, it was a gut-wrenching moment for me (goodbye childhood!). However, we used this service, which was simple and hassle-free.

    This is wonderful to know.

    “No writing is wasted. Did you know that sourdough from San Francisco is leavened partly by a bacteria called lactobacillus sanfrancisensis? It is native to the soil there, and does not do well elsewhere. But any kitchen can become an ecosystem. If you bake a lot, your kitchen will become a happy home to wild yeasts, and all your bread will taste better. Even a failed loaf is not wasted. Likewise, cheese makers wash the dairy floor with whey. Tomato gardeners compost with rotten tomatoes. No writing is wasted: the words you can’t put in your book can wash the floor, live in the soil, lurk around in the air. They will make the next words better.”

    — ERIN BOW

    So, so very much this.

    First part of a Twitter thread by @SamAsIAm: "A friend who is a municipal arborist just called to tell me about a guy who cut down 32 big mature trees on his neighbor's NJ property to get a better view of NYC. He hired a guy who hired another guy. Cut them down and left the debris there. The fine per tree is $1000 so the 1/  2/ guy propably thought he was going to just pay a $32k fine. But the arborist wrote violations to all 3 parties, 96 in all (by hand, took him 12 hours) and there's a provision requiring the replanting of like trees "of the same size." And it's on an inaccessible by road"ALT
    Continuation of Twitter thread by @SamAsIAm: "3/  mountainside. He put the affronted landowner in touch with the only guy who would take on such a job. Thry have to build a road, remove the debris, plant big trees and water them for two years. He quoted $1.5 million. And additional fines total $400k. I hope whoever this ass  4/4 is he can't pay and they lien and sell his property, the value of which he probably figured would be increased so much a $32k fine was worth it, to cover the cost. We are living in the Jaime Dimon ethos. "So fine us, we can afford it.  4/5 The PS to this is I was just given a zoom link to the 1st court hearing tomorrow. I'm not sure if it's just for trail participants or spectators can use it, but if they let me observe I'll add more. It doesn't appear to have been picked up by any news source yet."ALT
    Quote Tweet by @ParSpec: "Apparently NOBODY ELSE IN THE QUOTE TWEETS RESPECTS TRADITION ENOUGH TO POST THE TREE LAW COMIC"ALT
    A 1-page comic by u/reachling: Panel 1: A saddenned person with short hair looking at a tree stump, their hands are holding the sides of their head. They're saying "Oh no! The rare cherry tree grandma brought with her from the old country! It's been chooped down!!" and then in another speech bubble "And only a week after the new neighbor complained about it blocking his view too!"  Panel 2: The young person turns around with a befuddled look on their face. A speech bubble from the bushes says "Tree law?"  Panel 3: A bald bearded lawyer with a suit and briefcase looks from behind a picket fence and says "Tree law?"  Panel 4: Another lawyer with shades pops their head from inside the bushes and says "Tree law?!"  Panel 5: Another lawyer crawls from under the stump with a briefcase and says "Tree law!!"  Panel 6: The four lawyers carry the young person above them. The person is looking confused. Two of the lawyers are holding pitchforks and torches. Around them are raining dollar bills. The lawyers are chanting "Tree! Law! Tree! Law!"ALT

    so, i’ve fallen down the “humans are weird” rabbit hole, and i couldn’t help but notice most of it is about how humans are just really durable, adorable, friendly, how we’d pack bond with anything, about how we have such a hive-mind and empathy and determination to survive when things get rough, how we could survive things most other aliens would die from, how we could eat stuff that would poison other aliens, how we inject ink into our skin and pierce it with pieces of metal and drink toxic substances for the sake of entertainment..

    it’s always human defences and endurance

    but i never see people talking about human **aggression**

    like, imagine a spaceship happens to have several humans on it even if most residents are alien species, and two of the humans get in a fight.

    and i’m not just talking physical, i’m sayin’ all kinds of fights.

    imagine if two humans got in a serious screaming match and genuinely hurt a few of the alien species sensitive to loud sounds as they watch, flabbergasted at how the two are literally yelling in each-other’s faces without breaking a sweat or getting tired from it, while one of the sound-sensitive aliens literally passed out because it was SO loud


    or imagine them simply being in shock after interacting with humans for a long time and having this image in their head of humans being so friendly and able to get along with anything and anyone, including stabby, or any predatory, aggressive species we just so happen to find cute. that image getting completely shattered seeing two of the humans they’re friends with showing clear anger and aggression in a display they could only describe as “terrifying” in the most visceral sense of the word


    or two humans getting in an actual physical fight, and here’s where the *several* humans on ship part comes into play,

    so the two are duking it out in a violent display of pure hatred while other humans, amused and thoroughly entertained by the violence that would already have put any of the less durable aliens out of commission gather around the fighting pair and start ominously chanting “FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT”

    prior, the aliens hadn’t dared intervene or get any closer because either way they recognized it as a danger

    meanwhile some humans JOIN IN for absolutely no reason and it becomes a full on riot


    and the aliens just stare like ?????

    confused at why they’d find it so endearing, at why they’d literally join for no reason at all, horrified by even just a punch to the gut because to some of the more vulnerable aliens that’s their equivalent of literally getting an organ ripped out of them and somehow STILL fighting and then ripping out an organ out of the opponent themselves

    and most of all, if humans are capable of befriending aggressive, large predatory beings and getting along with practically everything,

    what from the fresh pits of hell triggered two *humans* to fight *each other* of all creatures?

    (that is, assuming aliens don’t have much knowledge of our history, wars, politics, etc of course.)

    Guerrilla Girls 1991

    [Image ID: a poster reading:

    “Q. What’s the difference between a prisoner of war and a homeless person?

    A. Under the Geneva Convention, a prisoner of war is entitled to food, shelter and medical care.”

    Between the question and answer is a black and white photo of a police officer disturbing a homeless person with a baton. The homeless person is lying down on a bench.

    The bottom of the poster reads “a public message from Guerrilla Girls - 532 LaGuardia PI. #237, NY 10012”. /End ID]
