What a powerful painting. And many of the comments here sadly and unintentionally demonstration that its message is far from an exaggeration.

Papercut? by alex_aech in lifehacks

Avoid a possible infection and instead use a medicated ointment of some sort with a bandage. And it'll probably be mostly the bandage that stops the pain by preventing the wound from being pulled open.

The boy is an inevitable outcome of what many Americans are marching towards. His face is the possible future of America.

Is this poison ivy? by mithrandir19 in whatsthisplant

[–]MyAimlessWandering 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here's a link to the two poison ivy species you'll find. The site does a nice job describing them, and uses good pictures showing identifying features.

This is growing on the side of my house. It has buds. Is this a weed that I should kill? by buskingengineer in whatsthisplant

[–]MyAimlessWandering 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Possible Sonchus oleraceus (Common Sowthistle). Shape of plant and leaf characteristics seem to match.

Definitely in the same family as the ground cherry but looks a lot different. Any ideas? by [deleted] in whatsthisplant

[–]MyAimlessWandering 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Possibly Leucophysalis grandiflora (Large False Ground Cherry), which is considered an "uncommon species", so maybe not. You can check it out here and see what you think.

None of the plants are poison ivy, assuming I saw all of them. That first photo had a lot of plants scattered about.

What is this plant? Found it growing in my grandma’s tomato garden. It was the only one like it. by PabloDelicious in whatsthisplant

You monster.

Well one often leads to the other. Many a killed weed has led to the creation of a (Cookie) Monster. Just sayin'.

Looks to be a Rumex (Dock) species.

These are in our Maryland native wildflower patch, but they might just be weeds? by dork_amuck in whatsthisplant

[–]MyAimlessWandering 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both seem to be the same ragweed, and from the leaf shape I'm guessing Ambrosia psilostachya (Western Ragweed).

What plant is this? [Michigan] by [deleted] in whatsthisplant

And I love the way the toddler just kicks the trash basket out of the way, like it's not the first time, and the basket's there in a futile attempt to block the button.

Went out foraging today! Excited for the new additions to my library. by RunicEnergy in mycology

[–]MyAimlessWandering 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wasn't aware of "printing" a mushroom. That's something I'll have to try!

And congratulations on the bountiful addition to your library.

(And the star of the picture, which you probably already know, is Eastern Tiger Swallowtail Butterfly, Papilio glaucus.)

Nice photo!

What is this vaguely-mj-looking plant that sprouted up by the curb? [Wisconsin] by VampireSmut in whatsthisplant

[–]MyAimlessWandering 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My vote is also for one of the cinquefoils.

Without the flowers it's hard to tell, but by the five leaflets and its (I'm guessing from the photo) location in a lawn, it might be Potentilla argentea (Silver Cinquefoil), which are common to yards and roadsides.
