    Anecdote time!

    A solar farm went up in a field that was basically sitting as weeds for nearly 20 years.

    Suddenly a ton of people were super concerned that it be used for literally anything else. No complaints when it was a literally stinking cesspool of rotting plants every time it rained.

    Now it’s a solar farm with the unused areas filled with proper drainage, pollenator habitats, and most importantly to me (besides the obvious benefits of renewables): it can’t be bought by a truck manufacturing company that has put up so many lots around me, it’s literally changed my localized weather, and the fucking insanely bright lights have all but demolished my ability to see stars at night.

    So at least I have ONE free direction to look at.

    Of course that didn’t stop someone in a lifted red pickup that was flying MAGAt flags, blue line flags, Gadsden flags AND punisher flags from doing a drive by shooting all the way down one side. They somehow never caught the guy despite the VERY visible vehicle.
