It's kind of crazy. Some of the single little Clover shoots are 3 ft tall. I've never seen Clover grow so tall

We live smack dab in the middle of the forest. Most of our neighbors are animals. The few snakes that come around are tiny little garter snakes and Forest mulch snakes. But they've been here longer than we have so they can go wherever they like.

Oh wow, I hadn't thought of day of the triffids in almost 30 years... And now looking it up it seems I missed a 2009 movie. Superb!

Thanks for the catalyst that lead to me not having to decide what to watch tonight :)

Thanks for the note.

It should also be noted that while they are invasive, they have been established (in my part of Canada) since at least the early 1700s. I wouldn't go importing mullein and planting them on purpose, but I will also not destroy them on my own land. They are like a mini-ecosystem all of their own. And when the bees are done with the clover they can be found on these mullein more than any other plant in our 'yard'.

And while technically invasive, they are neither aggressive nor hard to manage ( if you are not trying to manage a million square KM of national Park ;) )

In which way am I complaining? I am explaining why calling a valid solution a bandaid might be construed as belittling their very real knowledge of this process. And how that is a regular pattern in a lot technical fields.

And don't give me this shit about 'I'm not the person you were talking to' This is an open forum not a direct/private message.

You can't expect people who are knowledgeable about this stuff to just forever accept that someone asks for advice, gets told the solution, and then ignores/belittles the person with knowledge.

This is our daily life experience. We get hired to be experts, and get told by non-experts that our solutions are not tenable every single day. Only for that solution to eventually be accepted when the user in question figures out their idea was not useful and the expert was correct.

We have to put up with it at work, we are not obliged to accept it here.

That the folks in IT have any sway over microsoft or facebook's ui plans.

NO Karen, I can not make Teams go back to the way it used to be. No matter how many times you ask.

I don't know if I would go that far ;) But thanks for the vote of confidence.

A leftist who can't see how the tea party emboldened and created the proto-maga movement just in time for Trump to take it over.

I will once again call bullshit.

You are cute. How far into the shit-filled rabbithole do I have to go into libertarianism before I find your specific flavour of bullshit? Somewhere between rand paul and ayn rand? Or do we go deeper?

Libertarians man. What a fucking joke.

ideas that are objectively similar to maga bullshit.

Fair enough. I lived there long enough to know that some of them definitely did it purely out of spite, I just can't imagine it is a majority.
