Why does weed seem to go so well with graffiti? Why don't graffiti artists ever promote vitamins, milk, or bananas? Also, the need to label the leaves as "weed" is kinda funny to me. The need to clarify demonstrates a certain responsibility to communicate clearly. I do appreciate that, just in case I thought the artwork depicted a thistle or something.
The label could refer to the weeds growing up thru the cracks in the concrete too. Multi-layered meaning going on here. Clearly an intellectual recreational drug user at work here. Mmmm.

back in san diego again. my dad's been boasting for months about the weed he harvested from my brother's plant which used to be on his back porch. (my brother and his girlfriend are in paris and left behind their plant for my father to manage...). so upon arrival i forced my father to pull his stash out of the freezer for me to have a look. low and behold - it's mostly leaves! his partner dried it out and left all the leaves on! and then my dad explained that the buds were so small because the plant was obviously root bound. it was a good laugh. and then he told me that the appletini he had just prepared for me was mixed using grandma chickens' fleishman's vodka from 1984. um, thanks dad.
tomorrow i will visit my grandmother again.

A Finnish company PurePlastic released a set of Ginga Densetsu Weed plushies. I have been a fan of the Ginga series since I was a kid and as I collect plush dogs I had to get a couple of my favorite characters as plushies~ <3

One of what seems like a million weeds in my garden! At least most of them are pretty like this one!
If anyone is using 500px, I've setup an account here! :)

'Ban mara' (literally, 'forest killer') is an invasive weed that is covering and out competing forests in Nepal. It has no use as fodder, but converting into bio-briquettes has promise of providing clean burning biofuel.
