I’m also in this picture and I love it!

Well thanks! :)

Fuck the people downvoting you, we have rules for a reason and you’re right I’ll fix it. I suspect a swipe error because usually I’m more attentive than that.

Built by and built for it’s occupants planned occupants I bet :/

Edit: Its not it’s (and autocorrect tried to correct me again)

Bro, the people here, like the people everywhere, ARE stupid.

It’s always better to be explicit. I’m one of the stupid people who learned some things reading the comments here and I’ve got a doctoral degree in aero astro engineering.

Are you sure “handheld meat pies” is not what people from Nebraska call ribs?

I don’t see maple syrup anywhere here…

Hopefully they save you enough money to invest in a full-size microwave. They are pretty legit!

I’m guessing no.

Wdym?

Why wouldn’t I be on the board? It’s mostly just my rental properties in here and the other meat farm execs.

And yet here you are commenting about it. Neat.

Isn’t it nice? That’s been carefully selected/managed by the HOA with the help of an ecologist. An effort which I have been managing since I joined the board 8 years ago. None of the yards are just no mow because you can have both tidy lots and natural spaces. We don’t just leave it and see what happens.

Edit: What’s growing there is intentional, and generally where it’s growing (as a natural boundary and erosion control feature) is.

👏👏👏

Wow you stepped right into the point and didn’t even notice.

Technically yes, you are composting by throwing food out your window and onto your yard. Technically yes, you are reclaiming space for insects and animals by not maintaining any area outside your house. Functionally, if you want to make compost, you designate a spot or get a container and learn anything about browns, greens, necessary turning, decomposition, and so on. If you want to help insects you might get a sod cutter and turn a section of (or all) of your outdoor space, you learn about what trees or flowers are native to your area and serve that purpose, then you plant. Unless your yard was grassland originally, there’s more work to do than just let it go until code enforcement comes and tells you to stop being a turd.

The most common weed plants are indeed good for pollinators, and spread chicken bones and pizza crusts will eventually add some value to your soil. However, I don’t think they bring you any more credit than, say, helping the bugs in your neighborhood by not cleaning up your food spills or washing your laundry.

Standing around high fiving because youre the nuisance house in the neighborhood who can’t be assed to pick up after yourself is fucking weird. Apparently you (specifically) can do some research so maybe you ARE being intentional, but that is not the general vibe I ever get from the “I don’t even mow, you’re welcome neighbors!” threads like this usually devolve into.

Edit: My garden growing in my compost on my lawn with a few of our fireflies. Would make a better gif but idk how to do it.

I believe like two people in this thread lol.

Just not maintaining your shit isn’t some praiseworthy, heroic effort to benefit the community. Letting your once normal lawn grow out of control is not rewilding anymore than throwing your food scraps out the window is composting.

Sure, vast expanses of perfectly manicured fescue are not helping fireflies or other bug species, but let’s be real, knee high thistles, dandelions, and crabgrass is not providing a profound service either.

I have not, I wasn’t aware it existed until right now.

I guess we will see. Tiling WM on Wayland was, at my last check, totally limited to sway. As a dwm guy Wayland has yet to give me what I need.

Cool.

Cool
