It turns out that to plan a garden, you have to think in 4D: not just how much space the plants take up and how tall they'll get, but how they'll grow over time. And it's not so straightforward because they affect each others' growth: plants in the shade of other plants will grow differently than if they're in the sun, etc. Vining plants can crowd out and stifle other plants. And some plants improve soil quality around themselves, so they can boost the growth of their neighbors.

Ultimately you're making a home for a bunch of living beings who don't move by getting up and walking, but by creating more of their own bodies in the direction of the resources they need.

Maybe I've been sitting in the forest too long, but gardening remains fascinating to me.

"We should measure the prosperity of a nation not by the number of millionaires, but by the absence of poverty, the prevalence of health, the efficiency of the public schools, and the number of people who can and do read worthwhile books." - W. E. B. Du Bois

I was walking around on a hike today and came upon two non-venomous snakes just mating in the middle of the trail, like "Why don't we do it in the road?"

IDK, they just came out of their dens so maybe they're extra horny. But we've got no end of eagles and hawks around here who think snakes are delicious.

Not gonna kink shame but I would not be an exhibitionist if I were a snake in eagle country.

Maybe that can be a new proverb.
