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

Plastic ANYTHING makes me more angrey.
Desert Storm was all about the CRUD oil.
Trumps bullshit is all about the CRUD oil.
Guess what plastic is made from? Murder for CRUD oil/plastic is still murder -

@futurebird One thing I remember from my first (and only) visit to Toronto -- in early December, many years ago -- was the decorative cabbages planted in small plots outside people's homes. I had no idea that they were a thing.
Brassicas, eh? Weirder and much more annoying than beans...

@darkling @futurebird Decorative brassicas are a NY tradition in much of Asia.

More. A cabbage planted and abandoned to dog piss is still adding a lot of the benefits of plant life. Not much was wasted as they practically grow on trees.
@gbargoud
And also more because that hipster aesthetic of veg in window boxes was about acknowledging the importance of feeding people in cities. So what kind of mindset goes 'let's take that and make it not food'

@Bumblefish @futurebird I just had no idea they were a Thing until that point.
But I guess, brassicas can be all things to all people...

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.

It's just... sad. Every square centimeter of photosynthetic green is valuable in a city. Someday they will understand, I hope. But not before the collapse.
There are less glamorous things that will grow in such places.

Anything. The hardier the better.

@futurebird this might be the only place where watching an ATLA fight scene would not tarnish my conscience -

@futurebird @angelastella boosting this because i love how out of context it vaguely sounds like a threat -

@futurebird @Bumblefish @darkling I was going to say it was the nitrogen rich urine...

@DigiDavidex heh, l'ho preso durante il lockdown quando le opzioni alternative erano piuttosto limitate.

@DigiDavidex v. foto.
Ho preso tempo fa la valigetta col kit, per non tanti soldi (ora non ricordo quanti).
Il trapano è buono, funziona bene.
Le punte da muro non le avevo usate fin'ora.

Io penso che in quelle da muro bisogna vedere le alettine sulla punta, non il sotto che è sempre più stretto

Le redazioni prendono di nuovo sul serio i commenti. Tre lezioni apprese dai commenti pubblicati sul Times di Londra.
Gli editori consideravano le sezioni dedicate ai commenti un rischio per la reputazione e un costo e, verso la metà del decennio, una dozzina di siti – tra cui Popular Science, Chicago Sun-Times, Motherboard, Reuters e NPR – avevano ridotto significativamente o completamente disattivato le funzionalità di commento. Ognuno di essi sosteneva, spesso senza dati a supporto, che i propri lettori preferissero discutere le storie tramite i social media. E così quella che un tempo era stata annunciata come una nuova frontiera del dialogo tra lettori morì di una morte non proprio silenziosa.
Dieci anni dopo, sta accadendo qualcosa di sorprendente...
