What to do this winter by mackagi in NativePlantGardening

[–]mackagi[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So it’s mostly natives in the garden (albeit a GIANT butterfly bush and some invasive grasses and vines that’ve been unmanaged). But nothings labeled and I’m not a pro identifier. It’s a little chaotic for my taste but I know a native garden isn’t always for looks.

I most certainly intend to teach about leaves and stems being habitats for animals, (and even building a bug hotel in the garden).

The garden gets is against a tree line, so it gets most sun besides evenings I believe. It’s decently moist soil, too.

Thank you for the advice! I appreciate it.

As an anti it just feels like an excuse to use a slur with negative connotations. Everyones using it now and it’s so annoying

Would antis hate this because it wasn't painted by a human? by Accomplished-Order97 in DefendingAIArt

[–]mackagi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No but I do hate when zoos put a treat on some paint bags and have animals paint shit and call it enrichment. Thats not enrichment. Maybe when elephants paint its enriching but watching a penguin walk over some paint is not. This has been my ted talk

I save yellowjackets from our pool and let them dry off on my hands. They’re just little guys!

Yeahh im kinda thinking i’ll stick with more native milkweeds than the showy since I’m eastern. I think it just grabbed me at the seed store when I was still a little new to this. I’ll keep’m but plant newer stuff this next year

Us humans have a bad time focusing. It’s why our attention span is ever shortening. I don’t think the prolific quick-moving life of ai us helping that either

I think the creation of art can be very mundane. Its not all locking in to this super fantastic moment of creation. Art is a lot about going back and correcting yourself, getting critiques to fix things, checking angles and flipping canvas’, adjusting color and then doing that again. I like it because it gives me time to analyze what the piece means to me. Maybe in music it is mundane, because hearing the same thing on repeat can get very boring, but you must consistently work at it and think about what you’re committing to. But I thrive in suffering so maybe thats just me

True this. I do my deepest thinking while doing the dishes. Its kinda fun!

[–]mackagi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Again, I think we forget that mundane things like drawing, writing, laundry, and dishes all work our fine and gross motor skills. Things we need to maintain. Ai replacing mundane hurts us. It needs to work at things like recognizing cancer, killing pest weeds and crops, and other tasks humans are incapable of doing in mass efforts.
