Had to staff a 4th of July parade and there was a float with a banner that said “from walking to cybertrucks” who even needs satire at this point

Category 10 forestry event . I found a tree at work that no one in the forestry department can ID like we can’t even get it down to a Genus. If we had to guess we’d say Fraxinus (Ash) but THE LEAVES ARE WRONG (not compound, and no it’s not Fraxinus anomola) ……………..

Like this is an entire crew of people whose job is basically identifying trees without effort and we’ve been at this for a week and we have no leads. Yes it’s fun but if we can’t get this nailed down soon we may actually be a danger to ourselves

Oh my godddd . Ok we were right it is an ash but it’s some weird cultivar of the European Ash (Fraxinus excelsior ‘diversifolia’).

Why an extremely rare cultivar of this tree that is pretty much only sold in the UK* is on a parkway in Chicago I don’t know but that was certainly a journey.

*correction: it appears that about 20-30 years ago a small sample of this cultivar was sold to a number of municipalities around Chicago and have been confusing local arborists ever since.

“Fall Out Boy’s Infinity on High is about Mikey Way” = tired, dismissive, boring, listen to You’re Crashing but You’re No Wave before you talk to me again

“Bruce Springsteen’s Born to Run is about Clarence Clemons” = can you say that into the mic actually. Yeah say that again, right into here.

Learning that Clarence "He was elemental in my life, losing him was like losing the rain" "As long as I'm breathing you'll never be alone" "We didn't just split the city in half, we rebuilt the city into a place where our friendship and our love for one another wouldn't have been such an exceptional thing" Clemons is a NON-SPEAKING PART in the Springsteen biopic is a fact my brain cannot fully process, informational white noise, a cognitohazard

The older i get the more i understand why some people become obsessed with privacy, not because they’re hiding something, but because being constantly perceived starts to feel spiritually exhausting.
