Fuck Border Patrol overall, and absolutely fuck the chainsaw operator or machine operator who felled that glorious tree. Cottonwoods are integral to the environmental health of that region. Cutting down this tree is not much further from poisoning your own water supply. Metaphorically and literally

In regards to visuals, nothing pulls me out of a YouTube video faster than the youtuber going over a website or other online tool, and ads are all over the place. Ad blockers exist. They're pretty damn common, actually. Get one and use it. It's like digital secondhand smoke.

Why hello people of Bluesky I've been involved in anti-Flock campaigning locally and also just completely buried myself in Pokémon Go in my free time. What's new with y'all?

Watching a youtuber call Pokémon Black and White "older games" makes me feel a certain way...

As a long time fan, im very on the fence about the new Resident Evil movie. Netflix absolutely botched the last "reboot", so this one needs to be near-perfect for me to care about a cinematic T-Virus zombie again.

This Labor Day, I ripped out the irrigation system in my yard. Wanted to pose for a picture with the control assembly like a hunter with their kill, but thought that was a bit over the top

Someone on my other post asked what the difference between a government and social maintenance was So let's explore a little bit!

"Anarchism would never work because human ego wouldn't allow it to happen" No shit, Sherlock. That's why I've started seeing anarchism as a societal maintenance toolset instead of an end-goal. Governments come and go, but societal maintenace doesn't end until the last living thing dies.

A US court admitted they don't fucking understand AI and how it's trained. Or... maybe they do, and they approved it anyway because everyone on the court who voted for this needs their personal devices checked

I just cannot get the hang of this "government work" thing. The stereotypes are pretty true, and the guys I work with are self-aware about it. "Schedules" and "work orders" and "scope of work" are just guidelines here. Not functionally Rule of Law like a corporation.

Stumbled upon a "separate the art from the artist" post using HP as example Harry Potter books are gawd-awful on their own and I'm tired of people pretending their some pinnacle of literature And don't get me started on the transphobic Holocaust-denying author that lived in a mold house.

I'm averaging 2.5 miles walked when I play disc golf, and about 3 - 4 miles per day playing Pokémon Go. Ironically, all this walking is helping my knee pain. And I feel pretty good. Need to get better shoes now.

How to rage bait an arborist (Hint: its a Bradford Pear and it's still alive)
r/arborists

Is there anything wrong with this 30+ year old Callery (Bradford) pear? (Zone7b, NE US)

Screenshot of a large tree looking up at it from the ground. The dark grey bark contrasts the green leaves on the canopy and the leaves of other trees on the left side. On the right stands a brick building of some kind, with a window on the side of the building facing the tree.

Not quite sure how I feel about my new position Apparently *everyone* expects me to take up the city inspector role for the department of urban forestry I'm gonna now be the person I used to answer to when I worked for the city's tree contractor It's poetic justice. It's beautiful.

Imma be honest, I don't really know how to make my tree interest social media friendly. The "anarchist arborist" is a persona from Old Twitter that I carried over here because it really did become a part of my identity. But anarchism through this lens is narrow and niche

Hi, I'm Keith My hobbies include long scrolls on Reddit, getting into arguments with strangers about fictional universes, and occasionally talking about how modern society fucking sucks and what we may be able to do about it. And I also love trees.

A brown daschund dog lies belly-up next to a person wearing a brown shirt and grey shorts on a darker grey patterned couch. The legs of two black coffee tables and some books are in the background underneath the tables.

I miss Old Twitter Did more of the cool kids stay over there, or did they just fall off the face of the Earth? Some of y'all active on here, but there are still several I haven't found again.

Taylor Lorenz using outrage tactics to attempt to de-legitimize Legal Eagle's outrage tactics for his social media lawsuit is just peak youtube (derogatory) Taylor, you do realize you're doing the same thing you're accusing Devin of doing? Also your very valid points are lost in your outrage

Random flashback to the time where I got asked to trim up a tree for a traffic camera to have a better view. Plot twist: the "better view" was of a park bench roughly 1/4 or 1/3 mile away. Inside the park, away from traffic.

BREAKING: Tree sit goes up to stop border wall construction in Arizona. The action is reportedly the first tree sit in the U.S. aimed at stopping construction of a border barrier. Land defenders on the ground are asking people to show up and support.

One thing I miss about leftist Twitter in its heyday is the large number of random 400-follower accounts from local activists regularly doing actual activism. Very few of those people made it over to Bluesky, I know this because almost nobody I organize with locally is on here.

And we go back down lol They let me go early due to lack of work. And it's genuine. They barely have a week's worth of work in front of them as it is. So no hard feelings but also: god damn it there goes a week's pay.

I *hate* feeling like I'm simping for businesses just because i need to explain to some people that "A Cost Is A Cost Full Stop" Just because a client or customer *feels like* something is too expensive or overpriced doesn't /automatically/ make it so

Finding a TikToker who is actually politically savvy and knows the difference between liberal, communist, socialist, and anarchist is like finding drinkable water in a desert Not impossible, but the environment surrounding it is hostile to its existence.
