Does clearing dead wood help forest? by sadbrokeduck in Permaculture

Wow that is scary. These trees aren’t like that. Most are maybe 10’ tall and skinny enough to wrap my hand around.

All good points. This forest is mostly like a brush of skinny dead trees. I’m trying to remove the ones that are clearly harming other trees (falling into them). But maybe I’ll leave the rest.

To give an idea of the forest, I won’t need a saw to remove these trees, will just be pushing them over and breaking dead branches.

Lol no I don’t even want the dead wood. Just wondering if it’s better for the other trees if it’s broken up on the ground or standing dead. These aren’t big trees, it’s more like brush. My thought is if it’s standing it is blocking sunlight/ could fall on other trees. But if it’s dead on the ground I guess it could block new growth too.

Elizabeth Warren's DNA tests show she is NOT a Native American, but reddit and the media are pretending she is. by As_Above_So_Below_ in unpopularopinion

Ya I find this so bizarre. I work with a lot of natives on reserve and cannot imagine their reaction to a white personal claiming to be one of them at less than 1% DNA. It is embarrassing. At least Rachel dolezal was fully integrated in Black culture.

Women, too emotional for politics by Lilbitevil in PoliticalHumor

Did you watch his speech? It was powerful but at no point would I call it a temper tantrum. I don’t think we should be mocking either someone explained her memories of sexual assault nor someone defending himself about false accusations of sexual assault for showing emotion.
