For millions of Indigenous & Global South ppl across the world, rock is sacred. It is imbued with a spirit & resilience that trascends our own existence. Your word "inert" is offensive & speaks of a colonialist Western mindset that divorces our spirit from nature. https://t.co/mOYhAxEwQB

I discovered once that there are "people" who find bonsai trees upsetting and abusive. A real black pill moment.

Bonsai trees are so fricking cool and I really want to grow and tend my own oak and weeping willow bonsai but I'm too scared of failure

You can just buy one from the store for $30 and then gradually over water it to death it's much easier to do it that way.

Don't even try. Those fricks are deceptively difficult to keep alive and I don't even know why. Maybe because of how intensely contorted and pruned they tend to be it weakens their tree-soul or something. Anyway, I had one and it died. I have a full sized non-b-word weeping willow on my property and I never had any trouble keeping that alive so I know it's not a me problem.

You probably should have conducted some s*x magic rituals to renew its life force.

I'll try that next time I feel like raising a bonsai. Do you know if using blood in the ritual is beneficial to tree life force?

Turns out that keeping a tree under extremely constrained conditions and not letting it grow creates a plant just on the edge of life that will die at the slightest additional hardship

You can do it, Carp. You are a caring human being with a beautiful soul, and plants feel and respond to that
Also, if it dies, you can just get a new one and try again

Reminds @Featherina_Fabulousa of that episode in ugly americans where the soy OC can't keep a plastic plant

Conflating plastic plants with miniature tree growing through extremely precise pruning and bending and containing from seed that people make a fortune doing with decades of practice is more indicative of soy than whatever netflix slop you're on about

Yes I'd like too know more about you're ancient technique of pruning roadside shrubs
Yet too hear of someone making their fortune by finding the best seed in-between the cement cracks of Hanoi's slums. That fentanyl infused drunkard piss must give it great qualities.
Long live the ccp
