Somehow I'm bothered that Sandy Clay Loam and Silty Clay Loam are both a thing, but Loam is already the "Silty Sandy Low-Clay Loam" and a the middle-most area is "Clay Loam" instead of pure loam. WHY IS CLAY'S POWER SO GREAT!?

Is this what keeps the soil kingdoms in balance? The two rivals, silt and sand, locked in eternal hatred and yet forced to cooperate to maintain balance against the all consuming Clay Empire?

It's because Big Clay® wants to keep you from buying into loam's narrative.

Three cheers for the loam empire, may its topsoil never erode!

My favorite "Big X" thing was something I just found on lemmy recently, it had me laughing harder than it really should have tbh.

"Big Small is just trying to get you to buy more less!"
