"KUALA KANGSAR: The first rubber tree planted in Malaysia, estimated to be 146 years old, is now said to be worth almost RM200,000.
Kuala Kangsar Municipal Council (MPKK) secretary Saiful Azli Mohamed Nor said the rubber tree, or its scientific name Hevea brasiliensis, requires maximum care with maintenance and treatment costs of between RM3,000 and RM5,000 a year."
It's #InternationalDayOfLatex again! I feel like I've upped my photography skills a notch or two over the past year and there are so many photos that I've taken that I love. Here are a few randomly chosen favorites!
Sometimes, during longer hikes, it's fun to relax and lounge in the lake. In my case, it's more fun on the lake! Can't help if a few people get bonus views~
Thank you so much to @BlurTheFur for the excellent raffle sketch :kay_happy:
During the summer of the George Floyd protests, in the first year of pandemic, my pony surprised me by sending a video of him doing a drum cover of Sepultura Refuse/Resist while in rubber and pony gear. I had posted the video on Twitter, but that account's deleted now. I'll post the video here if I ever discover the incantation to reduce it to postable size. #rubber#ponyplay#drumming#sepultura
3m29s of my pony playing the drums. he's an overachiever and I'm an underachieving shlub, so I'm a little bemused that he lets me do mean things to him. but I'm not going to look a gift pony in the mouth. (there are better things to do with his mouth.) #rubber#ponyplay#drumming#sepultura
Overinflated: The Journey of a Humble Tire Reveals Why Prices Are Still So High
From a rubber plantation in Southeast Asia to a repair shop in Mississippi, the story of a tire highlights the turmoil of the post-pandemic economy and its uncertain future.
A blast from the past. These photos were done by friend who happens to be a very good photographer called Steve a few years back. His other work can be found here: https://purpleport.com/portfolio/horomaphotography
