I feel conflicted, I have been noticing a homeless camp growing very close to my neighborhood and they are absolutely trashing the area, letting their dogs run loose in the streets. I want to sympathize with them but they harbor no respect for themselves or their environment.
I have a basic respect for the environment that everyone should have by default, regardless of their financial status. And I would do everything in my power to keep it reasonably clean if I was in a similar situation.
If the dirt is all I have, then I would find something to grow in it. Not a pile of sharps.
Not yet, I have a roll of contractor bags they can use for their garbage, but I don’t have any means to haul any full bags to the landfill. Gonna need to sort the logistics of that part out.

My city is planning to make a sports area in a patch of vacant land in the middle of town, the plans show that the frickin’ parking lots take up about 50% of the whole site! They are also building brand new baseball fields there even when we already have 3 right now that’s only 1.63 km away. They haven’t started any construction yet so I’m contemplating a Lil sabotaging, maybe plant some bamboo in that area idk.
If I wanted to, hypothetically, guarentee that I shit my pants 2 to 6 hours from now, how should I do it?
