Using a single person #firefish instance I recently turned on a setting to load replies from of users I follow. And it has really livened up my feed and helped me discover some interesting discussions.

It's in the general menu.
Man, I have kept this quote in mind so much as I've started my new job, especially as a new manager. Learning to watch and observe before changing.

Some wire went on my Magnolia bonsai now that the leaves are off. I always wait to prune this until after the flowers bloom out in the spring. No need to waste them.

Put the #Bonsai trees from the bench to the ground for the winter. Which always makes me a little sad because I love looking at them from the kitchen windows.
The star magnolia doesn't have the best fall colors, but it's holding its own today.

Some Grade A #enshitification from MAX here. Same rate, less features.
Found a whole forest planting of volunteer alder trees today sitting in a disused hanging basket.

Rode my bike to the Pacific Bonsai Museum today and it was delightfully quiet and serene. Trees were in fall colors. And I was almost alone in the museaum to really look up into the branching and wiring of the trees.
