Wow you grew all that? Arnold @cryptopie, you! Need to start that up again - not only you're good at it (mom knows!), it's healthy for body and soul: gardening! Much less FRESH FOOD . I've gardened, mostly tomatoes, for a long time and would give anything for a green thumb! I have a GANGE-green thumb, HAHA. But I garden anyway, i love it getting your hands dirty and being out with nature, and eating from the yard is awsm. When I can grow something lol. Sorry about your dad's cranky-ness, whoa, I hope that has ended. if someone tore up my plants - :(. Speaking of tearing up plants, I've been thinking about, but unable to reply, to yr reply (tks!) to my last comment, lol, about plants that naturally increase appetite. I couldn't reply because I'm a big baby, and the inhumanity of it makes me so angry practically to tears. (but i hope u saw my upvote.) I had to think about it and will reply here haha: It sounds like your country is in a place where mine was a few decades ago, and the anti-drug (equally cannabis, so sad!) propaganda was SO strong, and we trusted our leaders and thought they were normal people, HAHA, and if you didn't have any reason to care about the issue the conventional wisdom was completely closed-minded. If one wasn't closed-minded by falling for the propaganda, they were silent for fear of not fitting in or being judged by others (adults in junior high), much less going to jail. Thank goodness minds are changing, it's the political b.s. and hypocrisy we are fighting here now. I hope change follows to y'all soon but - people are slow!
When I see images of some military destroying a field of crops, any crop, it breaks my heart - for the farmers first, and then for the brains installed backwards in my fellow humans. (Oh but if it's drilling oil, even if you gotta cause a few earthquakes fracking or blow off a mountaintop, God meant for us to have that dinosaur shale!) Those plants are no different than an eggplant - just a different use, in a life of different needs. And speaking of eggplants, that GIF - OMG. Very funny Arnold @crptopie!
