I love to collect herbs. But I hate to tell people about that because just after then, I ccan discover how much people love to believe in "cancer curing herbal medicine".

My father once suggested a toxic plant is great for health.

    It sucks when a hobby you like is full of weirdos. I've been looking into both solar panels and getting rid of a lot of my lawn but SEVERAL times I've been watching a video and the host drops something about homeschooling or religion. I just wanted tips on growing potatoes, man.

    RIP, same. I've sometimes dreamed about having some big-ass pretty garden and getting fruits and veggies from it, so my mom and I like to watch cool shit like people's giant greenhouse homes. And then you'll hear some tradwife and homeschooling shit in there and just get sad.

    Honestly, I’d recommend talking to a landscape designer. If you find a good one, they can help you sort all that out, and at least all the ones I know are plant nerds first and foremost, and so aren’t too impressed with the tradwife performance gardening nonsense.

    I don't know what the plant was, but both of those can be true (though be careful). "The dose makes the poison." Everything is poison in large enough quantities. A lot of toxic things can be very beneficial in smaller doses.
