I’ll nominate @Leo in N E Illinois for Dr.Frasier Crane... a refreshing dignity about himself. Knowledgeable while relatable.. Existing “above” most shenanigans..

I’d WANT to be “Harry the Hat”... but that’s probably not realistic.

For all the bonsai people that grow trees outdoors. Have you ever wondered how to tell the weather?
This instructional was pretty well done.

My good good friend’s younger brother came to me last night, across the open “window-hole” of my apocalypse area.. asking if I could recommend some spiritual/intellectually enlightening reading material...

This is the FIRST bag I’m sending his way. :)

Elections today. These are the people and parties we can vote for.
Not arguing, just showing what a multi-party system can look like.

I have not, but it always seemed like fun.
I did do a pen pal sort of thing writing porn stories with a high school ex girlfriend when she moved. They were awful. We were still both virgins.

Kahlil Gibran and The Prophet is kinda like that band Chumbawumba and their song Tubthumping.
How did the worst thing they ever did become the one they were best known for when they have so much mind blowing material out there?

Came across this today.


A rough history of the development of the arts and technologies related to the keeping of potted plants, especially trees, including the greater contexts of changes and developments. Includes horticultural developments (including early greenhouse technology!), as well as the evolution of pottery and ceramics, and how they were used in various places at various times.

Long read.
Fascinating!

Absolutely fantastic!! Thank you for sharing!!!!!!!!!

I did not read the whole thing in ONE sitting... because tiny illuminated rectangles are NO WAY to read!

🤣

But I will be reading it in sections.

I haven't read it all either. It's split into Chinese history, Japanese history, and then the rest of world. I glossed over most of the rest of the world. Mind blowing thinking of familiar history in terms of the cultural exchange of horticultural practices and pottery technology.
It's like a whole other take on world anthropology!
Can't wait to get into the rest of it!
