i do really love how the more effort i put into knowing the various life around me (plants/birds/rodents and other scurriers) the more it feels like the space around me is alive, despite all of the greyness of of concrete and steel
@exiliaex once you get down to arthropods it gets kind of trippy
@exiliaex i feel like this even without knowing any local life tbh, there's something very "alive" about concrete and steel, as if cities are some kind of overgrown mass that represents a tree and its roots. i just wish cities were greener and safer (for all things)
@exiliaex it's beautiful to know that it really is all alive. Even the polluted horrors and the desolations are teaming with life, still.
