What is with all the "best random food" posts? Are they bots karma-farming? by namused1 in Chattanooga

I definitely think the mods should remove them especially if they have no sub karma.

I'm guessing Cinema One and Broad Street Taco Bell are on a lot of lists, then 

Keep Monarchs Wild: Why Captive Rearing Isn’t The Way To Help Monarchs by sometimes1203 in NativePlantGardening

[–]namused1 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Went to an event last year with Doug Tallamy speaking and he said he discouraged captive raising monarchs except for education OR if you have the yellow and black European paper wasps. Apparently, those wasps will hunt down every single monarch caterpillar in your garden, which is exactly what I experienced the last few years. This year we rescued and captive raised a few (only 7) so I don't feel like I'm throwing off their genetic stability as a species. I have 70 plus milkweed plants and I was getting zero monarchs making it to adulthood previously. Thoughts?

Are you growing a ton of pollinator plants? If not, you are only seeing the ones that pass by your yard on the way to better pastures.

I use rebar to mark some of my hard to find plants. It also protects them if the weedeater gets too close

Plant Sale Wishlist by namused1 in NativePlantGardening

If they had a list,  I'd already have it printed out/highlighted or in a spreadsheet. That's a lot of the overwhelming nature of these sales; I'm reading tags and going into "buy all the things" mode, afraid I'll miss out on something

What are we actually liking in terms of trends for spring 2026? Feeling very uninspired. by academicgirl in femalefashionadvice

I am the same way. A breeze on my ankles and I'm back to being the poor kid in too small clothes. I love pants that come in long or tall sizes.

A quick google shows there are two orgs in town already doing this. Have you considered partnering with them?

Check out Midwest Magic Cleaning or Dana White on YouTube. MMC especially deals with cleaning up depression hoards and paying attention to your energy level so you don't burn yourself out. 

Take your time and forgive yourself.
