It sucks that common mugwort is still illegal here in Indiana. Thankfully, there's a dispensary about 30 minutes away in Illinois.

No one person, thing, or organization I regularly interact with has tried as hard as lemmy.world to convince me she is some kinda fucked up spoiler effect politics demon.

Maybe dems should actually try to make ranked choice voting happen for real, instead of lip service to the idea, if they want the people who prefer third parties to support them. And maybe dems should attempt to do anything at all to address the concerns of the third party voters, instead of just threatening them with trump some more. Just some ideas that might alleviate the problem more effectively than getting really mad at people on the internet.

Oh man! Making the russian flag out of her and using her hair as the white is golden!

Balsam & jade Russian plants? Where is Russia located in your opinion

I have no issues with bottom middle

Looks ai generated, so not too surprised it's wrong

What's with the focus on Jill Stein? Third parties aren't relevant and the number of people who vote for them is far overshadowed by the number of people who don't vote at all. There are better uses of time than this lame two minutes hate session.

Democrats don't have a comprehensive worldview that can explain why they are so widely disliked and why so many people are apathetic/actively hostile towards America. Russiagate fills the gap in their understanding of the world by imagining that Vladimir Putin is a Great Man of History and that his perfidious scheming is responsible for all of the ills of America's democratic system.

Russian shills + USA republicans began pushing propaganda for her in a big way after they couldn't find a decent angle to effectively attack Harris like they did with Biden. Leave that propaganda unchecked and she will divert more than a few votes because propaganda works, so fortunately there is a lot of pushback in the other way.

Can't speak for many of the rest, but jade plants are from southern Africa. I demand geophylogenetically accurate memes.

I sat on a stinging nettle a few years ago when I had a mostly outdoor job. Now I am an expert in identifying them.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 37 minutes ago

And yet people eat them.

Imagine the indigenous person hungry enough to figure that out.

I hate stinging nettles so much.. They're always the first to pop up in spring and ruin an otherwise nice walk in the forest.

As a plant watch, or whatever this is called, I can assure you that this chart will not help you recognised local flora.

US Greens are damned traitors to democracy itself.

You can tell they aren’t serious by the lack of local political effort they put in.

Wish tumbleweed was on there, considering how it was used to undermine American farms.
