A mature hardwood cost me 10k last year when it dropped a bough on my house during a winter storm.

Dont get me wrong, I love the shade and nature it brings to my property, but this tree literally is a liability to me.

Actually I can relate to this, I’ve had three trees fall on my 1/3 acre property in the last two years. Luckily has only cost me $2k 😐

Fun fact: it is actually morally ethical to burn down billboards! One of those fun spots where the law conflicts with objective morality

I’m not saying I would burn these down at every opportunity, but I am saying I would certainly understand exactly why someone might, and probably wouldn’t remember much about who did do it.

Of course, I would plant 27 trees all over the property, and keep planting until the world runs out of trees, or someone gets fed up with pulling them out.

I’m patient and petty.

Of course, I’m too much of a coward to actually break the law and burn down any billboards, but all I’ll say if I ever see someone else do it is “based”

NGL seed bombs are pretty cool

Just be sure to get native wildflower seeds

We don’t need invasive species running amok

Fuck. That tree was amazing. It was decades old. That makes me quite sad.

Ironically the kid looks like he is saying his last tearful goodbyes to a tree that is about to be cut down to make room for a bunch of billboards…
