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

Just for ugly ass billboard that are harder to see than if they were put in front of the tree

[โ€“] [email protected] 29 points 10 months ago

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..

This makes me irrationally angry.

[โ€“] [email protected] 27 points 10 months ago

It's not irrational to be angry about this.

[โ€“] [email protected] 20 points 10 months ago

I think you mean rationally angry

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago

Doesn't seem that irrational imo

Outdoor signs ? You mean visual harassment ?

[โ€“] [email protected] 14 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Cheaper then hiring a kid to hug the tree full-time I guess

Hell of a summer job, though ๐Ÿ˜„

And don't it always seem to go that you don't know what you've got till it's gone?

Pave paradise, put up a parking lot.

large trees can be dangerous, but yeah could have at least planted some more around it
