    I get the sentiment IF you live in a place that has the right climate and conditions for raspberry. But from my experience, the right conditions and climate for mint are negotiable while those for raspberry are less so.

      Yeah I live in the high desert neither one of those things grow out here. Up in this area you get Russian thistle otherwise known as tumbleweeds and sagebrush and those things just grow everywhere. The Russian thistle is the worst thing in the world because those things clog up everything clog up everywhere take over everything. And then we have goat’s heads that take over all the cities and blow all the kids tires and end up in your house when you’re walking around you step on them. I would take mint or blackberries over any of these things.

      I haven’t grown raspberries, but if they’re anything like blackberries once they’re established it’s a bitch to kill them.

        you know there’s this artist who is famous or something because he once put a bunch of oversized beach umbrellas all along this gorgeous spanish beach like every quarter mile for fifty miles or something idk. anyways the wind picked up as the wind does along the beach, and the beach umbrellas caught the wind as beach umbrellas do and they started rolling along the beach and they had these pointy ends where they were stuck in the sand and i think someone might have died and anyways art never says quite what you think it is going to say, even when you’re making it.

        anyways i was kind of inspired by this dude even though i forgot his name because i’m terrible with names and i would love to make an art project that is “accidentally” some kind of ecological disaster or something and you just gave me an idea: berries edit no berries mixed with that fuck evil grass. is anyone here a genetic engineer?
