I hate the feeling of grass touching me. I'm reluctant to even rip it out by hand, as that would require touching it. I get at the roots with the machete and dislodge it that way so that I only need to touch it briefly in order to fling it onto the neighbour's land. Even then, I feel like I need to scrub myself afterwards.

Touching grass is not enough I need to
force climate criminals to face justice for what they've done to our planet.
Grass is dumb. I want a clover or moss bed.
Clover lawns are acutally amazing - they need way less water, fix nitrogen in the soil, and the bees love em when they flower.
Alsike clover would like to know your location...

I hadn't heard of this guy before, but he's really entertaining and educational. Thanks for sharing.
Kill your lawn needs to be the next 'Kill your TV' graffiti
These are mostly California natives: poppies, penstemons, fuchsia, baby blue eyes, monkeyflower, five-spot, tidy tips, salvia...
Remember to check that the wildflowers you plant are your locals, not something that is invasive in your area, or might confuse the fuck out of the migrating butterflies.
You know that there is native grass, right?
Allegedly. We can't know that for sure, and honestly, I have serious doubts.
Yeah, I really don't care for the blanket demonization of a plant family which is an important part of many ecosystems. Grasses are so much more than suburban lawns.
Fuck grass. Anything grass can do, other plants can do better. Except maybe c4 photosynthesis, but that hasn't been necessary so far.
