    Fucking mint, never get rid of it.

    However, thinking about blackberries, the only solution is fire.

    I don’t know which one wins, as long as they win far away from me…

      I don’t think there was ever a version of Mint that would run on a Blackberry.

      Always plant your mint in a pot. Preferably a suspended one.

      Probably, I was going to say European blackberry but that is also known as brambles apparently.

        Yeah I think it’s the same thing, blackberry is the berry and brambles is the thicket?

      in a fight between mint and lemon balm (different mint), which wins?

      i have a giant pot that has been full of lemon balm for the last, uh, i don’t know how long i’ve lived here it’s been a while but i like picking some and steeping some and making the room smell good. out by the trash we also have a pot of mint because the mint smell overpowers the trash smell

      Blackberries would probably learn to coexist with mint if they can share enoug root space.

      We have 3 kinds of mint and I’ve already pulled fistfuls out of the ground where they’re encroaching on neighboring plants. We planted it in the garden next to our big oak tree for our daughter to nibble when she’s out there with her friend, but it’s probably the last season we’ll keep it.

        Bold to assume the mint gives you a choice in whether you “keep” it.

          I’m a masochist. I have mint on one side of the house and wisteria on the other. I should round it out with bamboo and blackberries. Make my home into a rhizome cage match.

      Julip mint would be best for that. We have some and it makes fantastic fauxjitos.

Rules

  1. Don’t throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.


If you are here asking: “Is this a science meme?”

Probably, yes. We use the Dawkins definition of meme: a replicating idea, not just an image macro with a fact on it. A good post here doesn’t need to teach you something. It needs to make you ask something: who, what, where, when, and especially why or how.

Science isn’t a filing cabinet of facts, it’s a conversation. For example, a photo of an eel or other localized wildlife counts because most people never see one, and wonder is the first step of inquiry. A car meme counts if it makes you curious about what’s under the bonnet. If you want to talk about something you noticed in the world, chances are someone else wants to talk about it too.

We moderate for vibe, not category. Pruning is light, especially where a post creates interesting discussion. Experimenting is encouraged.

See the pinned paper on Shitposting as Public Pedagogy if you want the academic case for why this works.
