You go on and on all the time about "well I like this thing this way", as if we don't get that, with a bunch of poorly informed perspectives sprinkled in. You're never interested in engaging with a topic to learn some new things or take a different approach, it's just you doing everything to hold your stance and repeat "well different people have different opinions... it's okay to like different things..." ad nauseam. It's fucking obnoxious. I can talk about what way I think of things. But I never say you have to agree. People dont always agree, and thats fine. And I dont think my perspectives are poorly informed. They maybe different, but thats it. And I actually am interested in an engaged and interested in topics. I look at somethings in a different way. But some stuff, I dont. I dont really see a problem with that. Sometimes, I hold my stances, and sometimes, I change. Just because you dont see it doesnt mean it happens. Its not like youre in every topic I go into. Im not even always in this board. I got to plenty of other ones, too. Including game boards So, if Im so obnoxious, just put me on ignore Or just dont respond so I know who I can talk to adjl posted... It's obviously worse to be super-neurotic about lawns and mow them every day and whatnot than to maintain one more sensibly, and it's much less destructive to maintain a lawn in, say, England than in California (it's almost like the practice was imported or something), but whatever the conditions and how excessive your maintenance practices are, maintaining grass is pretty much always going to be more destructive than alternatives (other than paving the whole thing). Whether it's water costs, energy/emissions costs, or simply the opportunity cost of not filling that land with something pollinator-friendly or otherwise more beneficial to the local environment, grass is worse than pretty much any other organic alternative. So, if you didnt water it and planted flowers, it would probably be ok? --- Official King of Kings Switch FC: 7216-4417-4511 Add Me because I'll probably add you.
