It’s actually a good article that gets into all that…

Thank you for the actual context, so refreshing to see someone actually look at what was written.

I agree with the author. Also, why the fuck would I want to be my parent’s version of an adult? Boomers are boring and their hobbies are watching TV, cooking boxed meals, and shopping for shit you don’t need. I don’t need their milestones to prove to myself that I’m a good parent or person.

Mine needs more clover and native wildflowers. It has some already, it just needs more. Meadow grass mix of some kind, hopefully grows deeper roots.

My lawn can parch and die, but I love my sensory, moss, pollinator, assorted sedum, shade, and herb gardens.
