    Because corporate logos are intentionally designed to evoke the brand they represent?

    Let’s make sure to shame the people being bombarded by advertisements for 90% of their lives. That’ll motivate them to be more cognizant of botany

      This could as easily be read as a critique of modern capitalism for that very reason.

    Broccoli, cabbage, kale, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, bok choy, turnip, radish, collards and Mustard greens. 10 different plants, easy peasy!

      I knew there was something wrong with my place in Phoenix, AZ. Dang Democrats stole the forest!

        And the golf courses and lawns have made it humid! I thought it was supposed to be a “dry heat,” fucking over 100° and 70% humidity every single time I have to visit. Either that of freezing. One time it snowed… IN PHOENIX! Well, technically Mesa, but that’s just a suburb of Phoenix.

          Mesa is one of those places they put several man made lakes in to make people think they could do watersports in their housing development. And in reality it just humidifies the heat and breeds mosquitos.

    what… how is this a dystopic thing. put aside the fact that knowing brands helps me make decisions all the time and knowing plants wouldn’t help me at all since I’m not a forager… you could get rid of all corporations today and make us live in a perfect, moneyless, classless utopia and 20 years later I could still name maybe 4 different flowers because I don’t give a shit what they’re called.

        I didn’t touch that because that’s part of the complaint. I’m saying even accepting that as something to complain about, surely you could have much better things to compare than fucking plant names.
