Y'all's interpretation of anarchy is not good in this thread. Has anybody read the theory!?

[–] Keilik@lemmy.world 82 points 4 days ago (34 children)

Just remember that most microplastics come from tires so you kinda don’t want to have food you eat growing right next to the road

[–] Psaldorn@lemmy.world 20 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Are they absorbed into the plants? Or just wash off?

[–] MidwestSolarpunk@slrpnk.net 28 points 4 days ago (9 children)

My understanding is that they get into the soil and can then get into the plants. Then into your body.

[–] BooBees@fedinsfw.app 39 points 4 days ago (1 children)

That is unless you make a post on Facebook stating you revoke their permission to get into your body

Either that is the ugliest home design or this is AI generated nonsense. Those buildings make no sense.

Hahaha! I love it!

An actual house so ugly it looks like AI slop. Thanks for looking it up and sharing.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 5 points 3 days ago

I've seen some shit in suburbia, so I'm not entirely sure here myself.

[–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 5 points 3 days ago

Now that you mention it

[–] devfuuu@lemmy.world 26 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Imagine living in america and having laws about your garden.

They got in trouble for this... in Canada. A public outcry 15 years ago got them to keep it.

Buy a house not in a HOA. Problem solved. I grow stuff in my front yard every year

[–] infinitesunrise@slrpnk.net 12 points 4 days ago (8 children)

There are municipalities and counties that have classist lawn laws, too. In some places you either have to fight them and win or leave.

Right, I had a friend who had a cop show up to their house because.... their grass was too long. Absolutely unhinged.

No, this is some middle class bullshit.

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 23 points 4 days ago (3 children)

You will all eat VERY VERY well for about 2 weeks out of the year.

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 12 points 4 days ago (9 children)

You will have 1 month where you struggle to consume way too much of one single vegetable every week and you will dread having to find different recipes to use ot all up.

Finally a good use of the "front yard".

[–] OldChicoAle@lemmy.world 10 points 4 days ago (4 children)

Front yards are for block parties but nowadays everyone just hates everyone so they go home and close the shades./jk

Wild to me that Americans aren’t allowed to do this

[–] Ravenheart@lemmy.zip 34 points 4 days ago (4 children)

The US is a big place. Whether or not you're allowed to do this depends on where you live.

[–] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 23 points 4 days ago (3 children)

Yeah, but I've been told America is the Land of the Free, not Land of the Free, some conditions apply. Not applicable in certain jurisdictions. Check with your doctor if you are in an area free enough to grow a garden.

[–] underscores@lemmy.zip 19 points 4 days ago

It's land of the fee

Yeah that's a no-go. The lawn extension must be kept less than 12" tall under city ordinance, and you need a license if you're going to sell or give away those vegetables...

[–] x00z@lemmy.world 29 points 4 days ago

Hence the anarchy.

[–] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 19 points 4 days ago (2 children)

I was worried about this and called the city/township and turns out, as long as it's cultivated, my plants can be as tall as I want!

I can't make a fence with trelliseseses though. They were very adamant about that.

No that's how gardening looks like
