Actually it spreads very predictably (in either circles or a collection of straight lines) and if you want to get rid of it, just cut it to the ground and stumpgrind out the rhizomes, which are the only part that can spread the plant (and for most species are found in the top 12 inches of soil). If someone tells you that you need to get out every tiny root, they’re bullshitting you.

Orange Discount Hitler’s billionaire bankrollers want it so they can build their end-of-the-world bunkers there. Not sure why they don’t want their New Zealand ones anymore.
My aunt’s cat was basically a neighborhood cat lol. I remember once we were taking a stroll around the neighborhood together and happened to look in one of the neighbor’s windows… and there he was, stretched out on the back of the couch, watching football with the neighbor.
When she moved out everyone came by to say goodbye to her cat lol
But also, to be technical about it, the holidays actually celebrating them are still a human invention.
To quote Scrollone@feddit.it elsewhere in the conversations:
It makes me think about the Italian movie from the '80s called "Maladolescenza", which is now considered child porn by many countries, thus illegal.
I also saw a newspaper from the time in which they were interviewing people that came out of the movie theater, asking them what they thought of the movie. It was almost as disgusting as this article.
So certainly a fair number of people did.
Yeah, but it seems most of the people watching that movie took exactly the wrong message away from it, if that article is any indication.

Tribalism. As resources diminish, we have an instinctive need to defend what we need to keep ourselves and our ‘tribe’ supplied. Driving out ‘others’ means more for ‘us’.
It’s just that some people have a smaller mental group of ‘us’ than others. You see all people in America as ‘us’. They do not. (Unless it’s an ‘other’ they personally know; then they get included in their mental ‘us’ as ‘one of the good ones’.)
Of course there’s also the fact that much of the scarcity is artificially imposed by the uber-rich to get people into this easily exploitable mindset but that’s a separate discussion.
Yes, but both tree species tend to live fast and die young, so they can be used to provide first-generation forest protection until the second-generation trees can grow up.
Sadly these days we need to state the blindly obvious.

It would probably need a fair bit of water, too, unless you’re in a more humid climate with summer rains. It is a grass after all.
Unless you planted a tropical clumper, the concrete wouldn’t take damage. A runner would probably pass under it and show up on the other side eventually though. You can stop that by cutting the rhizomes back in summer and fall (think of it like edging a lawn), but it sounds like that space might be too narrow to set that sort of system up well.
