hot solarpunk take ive been thinking about off and on all day

i don't like joey santore/the crime pays botany doesn't guy.

i don't hate him. i just absolutely cannot sit through more than 5 minutes of his videos without getting fuckin dizzy.

also i know he's not the head of the 'if you don't know the latin names of everything in your garden if not your neighborhood if not your state then you're a hashtag fake native plant enthusiast' train but he's like lowkey the face of it for me so i get frustrated just hearing about the guy

#ani rambles #might delete later #like okay maybe mister santore is catching some fuckin strays out here but like #not all of us have the time or energy or fuckin brain capacity to memorize and perfectly ID every plant around us ever #and i frequently see posts that like lowkey shame people for not knowing latin names for things and like #its HARD. they have common names for a REASON #plant ID is HARD. not everyone has ultra megatron 5000 level pattern recognition like damn #i LOVE milkweed but if you held up a dogbane and a milkweed and told me to tell you which was which ill almost def get it wrong #if you hold up two MILKWEEDS and tell me to tell you which was which there's a 50 50 shot im gonna be wrong #like yeah sure encourage people to learn plant ID and latin names if they wanna but don't shame people like damn

Mountain, but he speaks like the guy from the Crime Pays, But Botany Doesn't youtube channel.

Everyone thinks he's all serene and one with nature while talking about, like, ferns, but then he'll start describing an aseroe rubra mushroom in the most vivid and profane detail imaginable.

I've been watching lots of Crime Pays but Botany Doesn't this weekend and I really feel like Maxine and Jack would be great hosts of a similar, crime-adjacent ghost youtube channel in their universe.

It's a shame Maxine doesn't have a New Jersey-esque accent, we'll have to settle for Jack narrating everything in his Texas southern drawl

i think that guy is from chicago but chicagoans sound like they were rolled from atlantic city to illinois, picking up every other accent quirk on the way. anyway i dont think of my characters having any coastal accents despite ostensibly taking place on the east coast. extremely boston lucy

Off to a rough start, but there is no feeling like watching a ex-criminal with a thick Chicago accent crawl around and talk about cool pants he found in Brazil.

i learned that there are plants that grow and live just below the surface of clear/white sand because the sand is translucent enough to let light through but also shades the plants from heat and predators.

And this guy loves cacti with a passion!

Definitely give 'Crime Pays but Botany Doesn't' a watch if you want to learn about Botany from a guy who cusses a quarter of the time 😌

houseplant soil mix types - master guide

because everyone keeps saying they are bad at taking care of plants with that shitty soil from Walmart.

This is a generalization based on my own research and experience, please do your own research when taking care of plants :)

Moist, squishy soil

This is for your Philodendrons, Pothos, Monsteras, etc

- Perlite: always a good base for most plants (a good propagate medium too, keep a glass full of some water and perlite)

- Coco coir: A sustainable cheap replacement for peat moss! It has good water retention and will help keep that moisture that tropical plants love so much!!

- Bark: Pine or Fir is typically what is most common in my area due to logging habits, but the off-shed of bark from the logging industry is a good way to give your epiphytes some of that bark texture that their aerial roots would typically climb on!

- Worm castings: Nutrients!! Providing natural worm castings will help give your leaves those beautiful shiny textures :)

- Charcoal bits: More nutrients!! This introduces carbon into the soil which the plants love to suck up

2. Dry, Gritty, Loamy soil

Succulents are not cactus, but sometimes cactus can be a succulent. - the guy from crime pays but botany doesn't

(i heard it a while back ago but i Know it was him.)

-Perlite: always a good base for most plants (a good propagate medium too, keep a glass full of some water and perlite)

-Pumice stone: a good aerating medium for your soil mix

- Charcoal bits: Same as before, nutrient.

-Sand: same as with pumice stone, but the opposite - if your plant likes more loamy sucky gritty soil than sand is better than pumice stone which is for plants that lived in more rock

:D

Crime Pays But Botany Doesn't

I follow this dude on Instagram and just watched the first episode of Kill Your Lawn on a channel called EarthxTV. In between ads for the World Wildlife Federation and an elephant conservation charity, the My Pillow guy had bought a slot, which cracks me up.

#i think the only way I'd get my dad to kill his lawn is by convincing him it would own the trumpers #kill your lawn #crime pays but botany doesn't

[botanicalbasil]

I just found out that the Crime Pays But Botany Doesn't guy makes clothing and I need someone to physically restrain me from blowing my money in one afternoon

#what is it about fever that makes me want to impulse buy #do i need a shirt that says “Botany or Death”?... #no but damn id be so cool

[sdbeelovely]

i'm sorry that people are being such fucking assholes to you. you made a mistake and you don't deserve to be publicly dragged because of it.

I don't think I made a mistake. I think I gave people more to think about perhaps on a subject they didn't expect. Maybe it wasn't the appropriate place to say I've had awful experiences about my body. Maybe it was. I've just spent too long being quiet and not saying things are wrong. I don't have to do that. No one does. If the op doesn't like what I added, they can remove it. Or it can give people a different perspective. One a lot of people are angry about. But I don't deserve the anger they feel. So I don't own it. I know me. I actually like me now. Maybe my response shouldn't be go fuck yourself to them. That isn't productive either. But it was some of my first hate mail. And I actually like it when the Go Kill your Lawn guy says "now go fuck yourself bye." I just remembered his channel is Crime Pays Botany Doesn't. One more thing. If everyone only hangs out with certain groups we don't learn as much. I got an ask about this topic and was actually guided to more information. So I'm going to look into that. Some people are going to hate me, others will try to educate me. Which works better for getting a message across? I'm excited about the info person. As for the hate person. Do better. Or not. But people get met with the same or worse energy in life. We choose our actions and how we react.

And thank you for your kindness.
