it's okay to run a few seconds behind schedule, statist

ya they're such wizards!! we think of ourselves as running the planet but I think it's actually the plants, they're just way more long-term. like if you ever see vines growing around a chain link fence or something like that, to me it comes across as like the plants are correcting it and taking down the fence, just in really slow motion from our frame of reference.

They usually do not want to hurt you either, anyways.

And ya, they don't! I appreciate them. They're still more of a burden lol, just because of the relative size and danger of their vehicle. But I appreciate it when they drive with care (which is most people).

Lmao, that thought actually is genius hahaha. Especially the part with the fence and the "slow motion".

Nothing to not agree about.

hahah 😎 ya

we can mess with plants in a micro way (one at a time, like one of us is dominant to one plant), but they don't mind that, the macro picture is the plants are king.

there's no un-rooting them, like even if it were technically possible to kill all the plants it would just shoot ourselves in the foot. and long-term is they take everything back lol.

so it seems like the plants' world, we just make brief little superficial changes and then have to babysit it or they take it back.

HHaha, so goddemn true. Without plants we are nothing - fortunately; because I love plants (at least non poisonous).

yaaaa, I wonder why the poisonous ones became like that 🤔😡.. maybe too many people were messing with them and ripping them up for no reason and they gave us a little warning

Hahaha, I guess it is a bit like chess. Most plants are just pawns; and then there are some knights and bishops etc., and of course kings and queens or maybe only one king and queen (maybe some massive underwater plant-creature thing).

ya I think so! they're all acting in symphony, they're an expression of the earth
