Interesting. So chives and Society Garlic would be okay for them then?

Also, I’m curious what their take would be on digging up a garlic bulb and taking most of the pieces for cooking, but then planting the rest back out as individual plants.

Not in this post, true, but in pretty much all her other ones.

The reason for the ban is still stupid though.

Oh, they have a plan for that too. Making them all wear shock collars and holding their families hostage.

More damning? I would think trying to overthrow the government and trying to install himself as a dictator would be just as bad.

Have you heard the nonsense the owner of Reddit spouts constantly? About how he was so good at hoarding that he’ll have a private army and slaves and people will come crawling on their knees to serve him for a little food and he’ll be a king?

Grief is love.

And since she was loved, she had a good life.

So don’t just weep that she’s gone, but also remember to smile for all the good times you had together.
