    because you all care so m uch about my lawn.

    this is a fairly common yard here

    no, thank you





    that line is noticeable




    yes, please



    seems neighbors I've spoken to about this all say essentially the same thing, just stay on top of it, they appear quickly and die just as fast. letting weeds propagate is bad for clover, grass, and the soil. Ideally wildgrasses that root deeper would be preferencial. but with a limit to grass height, not an opton. each has their opinion on chemicals but given the pup, i'm using vinegar, salt, or boiling water for anything I can't dig up.

    this is why kentucky bluegrass is preferred here, slower growth, denser, better at retaining water

    • I planted creeping thyme, moss, and other low ground cover plants. 3rd year and it’s starting to take over nicelyGnash
    • i've never had a property that's not separated by a hedge or fence, that would wind me up to the point i'd just end up doing theirs.kingsteven
    • i have a bit of lawn thats out of the way i use for patching dog damage then just seed the edges, it's usually blended in a couple weeks, then repeat :-|kingsteven
    • lol, so many lawnpics. Have you tried Zoysia? It's what they use around golf courses and tends to be weed resistant.garbage
    • Constant maintenance, and after having to deal with it through childhood, my biggest victory in life is not having a fucking yard.garbage
    • But if you laid down sod, you'd never see those weeds again. Also pick the dandelions before they spread.garbage
    • What kind of machine are you using on that spread? Push mower? Electric? Tractor? We gotta know!stoplying

    So we're standing on a pier on San Cristobal island in the Galapagos last week. We're about 8 feet above the surf, rocks, crabs and sea lions resting on the rocks. My wife walks over and promptly drops her phone through the boards of the pier and into the rocks below. Poof. It's gone. We get down on our knees to see if we can locate it. Nada. A gentleman who works at the marina walks over seeing we're in distress, I explain in my 8th grade Spanish what happened and he walks away. Three minutes later he returns with shirtless man called Jorge who looks like he's a house painter due to the paint splattered on his back. He asks where the phone is, jumps over the railing, down on to the rocks and sticks his arm down to try to find it. Waves are crashing about every 10 seconds or so. He pulls out a plastic bag. He pulls out an empty can. Then he holds up my wife's iPhone 13 (waterproof!) and we are so relieved. The phone was totally fine, still on and working even though it had been submerged for about 15 minutes or so. We handed Jorge and the other big guy $20 each. They were psyched and we were obviously so happy. It was a needed reminder that there are still really nice people out there.
    So grateful for that big man to be willing to walk over to help.

    Elon Musk Deposed In Lawsuit For Falsely Linking Jewish Man To Neo-Nazi Brawl

    Elon Musk was deposed in a recent lawsuit for falsely linking a 22-year-old Jewish man to a neo-Nazi brawl. Musk, who attempted to keep the deposition from the public, admits he did no research into his false claim, among other revelations.

    Just finished Better Call Saul. It was excellent. So was Mad Men.

    I've started watching old(er) stuff that I missed back when it was on, instead of constantly following the newest.

    • Mike &,Molly ... actually found it very funny for a network sitcom. Lots of dirty innuendo humor in it. So much so, that I couldn’t believe CBS aired it.Ramanisky2

    • I wish I could watch Mad Men again for the first time... Loved it.

      Now I just finished Twin Peaks again. Still nice. Weird, but nice.
