You wanna guerrilla garden some swamp milkweed around a retention pond so bad.
#solarpunk#guerrilla gardening#gardening#guerilla gardening#out of queue#ani rambles#me cataloguing seeds:#bot. interests seed packet: swamp milkweed grows great around ponds!#me: swamp milkweed grows great around ponds.... retention ponds.....?#i don't have the balls to do it rn because all the nearest retention ponds i can think of are like#either by highways or fenced in#but if someone has the courage and ability to do so. this is me giving out the idea.#i am in the 'retention ponds need some fuckin COLOR' camp#BEAUTIFY THAT THANG#i mean. I have so many packets of swamp milkweed seeds its unreal.#hypothetically if i were to obtain some clay.... i already have worm castings.... i just need to be able to make seed bombs....#maybe get a friend to be my accomplice and drive me around as i yeeteth deleteth

This 4th of July I’m stealing the patriotism euphoria that’s usually associated with assholes idolizing the worst attributes of this country because fuck ‘em I live here too and remembering the things this country actually got Right is an important exercise when trying to rally anyone to want to defend it in November SO putting my money where my mouth is I’ll start easy and say I really like National Parks!! It’s rad how many of them there are and how they’re actual set up to preserve some of the most beautiful wild areas in our country while still letting people visit to enjoy and experience nature!! (Less important but I love how they put national parks on the quarters I think that’s real fun)
Feel free to add on if something speaks to ya!
#The hypothesis I’m testing here is that remembering there are good things now and then can combat apathy a little bit#and this is the one day of the year where everyone has a free pass to say nice things about the US so!#some other fun freebies:#public libraries are really cool!! Love visiting them and I should do that way more#bit of a funnier one but I think our interstate highways are really nice#like I’d love trains too but it’s really cool how you can travel the whole country relatively easily like it’s all pretty connected#I love how women have equal rights! We’re backsliding a little right now which is why it’s so important to latch onto this now!#I love how we don’t have a draft- this one might point to some other issues in the country#but at least from a surface level it’s great that military service isn’t mandatory#If you aren’t in the US and still want to play go for it!#today I’m encouraging everyone to pick at least one little positive thing they like#and then down the line if you’re wondering why voting matters at all#maybe remember that little thing y’know#Do it for the national parks and the libraries and gay marriage and stuff#humming-rambles#anyways that’s my social experiment for the day hope y’all get to see some fun fireworks later!

okay who wants a fucking great country-ish song about the 401 highway, apparently the busiest highway in both canada and the US and an absolute nightmare to drive on?
(because I didn't think I needed this but apparently really do, and it has single-digit likes on youtube, so I figure it can stand to be seen by more people.)
youtube
this guy has minimal online presence and only two songs actually for sale anywhere but @darkfinch managed to find this, which has some info and songs on it.
and now if you'll excuse me I'm gonna go relisten, because this song goes hard and is quite happily stuck in my head <3
~
lyrics:
this is a long highway and it might take a day to drive from detroit back to montreal where the big rigs roll down through ontario and cars go speeds they should never go (never go, never go) take a look ahead flashing lights of red another crash out on the blacktop run on the news it says another driver's dead that brings the toll this month to twenty one (twenty one, twenty one) I took a ride today out on the king's highway from montreal to toronto bay justice will have its day with your life you'll pay better pay heed, so the people say keep your hands at ten and two do what you have to do keep them there until the drive is done or you may walk this road a lost and lonely soul another death out on the 401
just between you and I how can you justify the life you took with the pedal down (pedal down, pedal down) the ghosts they roam the road looking for their home and if they spoke you never hear the sound (sound, sound) I took a ride today out on the king's highway from montreal to toronto bay justice will have its day with your life you'll pay better pay heed, so the people say keep your hands at ten and two do what you have to do keep them there until the drive is done or you may walk this road a lost and lonely soul another death out on the 401 another death out on the 401

#401 highway#wayne ellis scott#wayne scott#country#music#country music#listen he's a very teeny musician so if you go looking on his youtube channel be prepared.#I've been having a great time but part of that is the inherent charm in his devil's saddle news clip upload#falderal speaks#I've been very normal about this can you tell#listen. LISTEN. I heard about this dang highway and thought there badly needed to be a folk song about it and there WAS.#nothing can burst my bubble today#once again thank you americana. americana my beloved.

the void stares back at him.
#sonic#sonic the hedgehog#sonic adventure#tails the fox#sth#sth fandom#ALSO why is sonic so distraught in the back is he good#maybe he saw what was in store for HIM#“Enjoy your future! It's gonna be GREAT!”#at least he was trying to instill some optimism in the baby#(also image credits to speeps highway as. seen in the bottom right corner of the first image)
