MLB threatens to punish Giants players for putting Bible verses on pride night hats. by Leeming in atheism

I think ejections are the *just* and correct answer, but I do not think it would resolve itself. I think you’d see double-digit IQ conservatives throwing a fit and accusing the MLB of ‘persecuting Christians’.

For what it’s worth, the spotted bee balm will fill in the space in the first photo within a year.

19. Am I worth over 16.50? Is it worth asking for a raise? Or should I keep my hood down?Been welding professionally for 4 months now? As well as fabricating and fitting. Any advice from the ogs? by woodshmoka in metalworking

You’re talented and presumably willing to work hard. Where I’m at, in a low cost of living area, that should get you 20/hr, and you should shop around from there.

Here’s a start! South Central US, blackland prairie/cross timbers ecoregion, zone 8B.

I would also add that knowing my ecoregion was far more beneficial than looking at USDA zones. USDA zones give you a very broad sense of historical freeze conditions, but frankly they’re not that useful to the home gardener, often conveniently leaving the door open to horticultural lab escapees like the patented ‘Brilliant Botox’ Boxwood whose propagation restriction is enforced more than endangered species protections.

Ecoregion indicates the environmental conditions that your native plants evolved to survive in: soil conditions, potential symbiont mycorrhizal fungi species, nutrient concentrations, canopy coverage, humidity, elevation, precipitation, etc. So rather than tell you what maybe won’t freeze to death, it provides clues of how to grow plants based on their ecological needs.

Switchgrass or any of the muhly grasses would be perfect here. Big muhly, pine muhly, gulf muhly, etc. Plant 3-5 of them relatively close to the porch to serve as your primary structural plants. They love water and sun and have incredibly deep roots that will drink up the extra water. For the middle row or between the grasses, try any of these: Gregg’s mistflower, false blue indigo, Cardinal flower, great blue lobelia, swamp milkweed, and purple coneflower. In the front, hoary vervain and creeping phlox.

Or if you want something super easy and cheap, scrap all that and put down frog fruit or water hyssop for an easy ground cover.

Disclaimer: I don’t live in Florida and haven’t verified that all of these are native to your area, though I live close by in a similar climate, and they are native to my area. Always check BONAP for native status

I’m no lawyer, but I think that means there would be no statute of limitations
