I'm shutting this instance down. Not sure how soon, I'll work it out with the host. Thanks for the good times, and I hope Mastodon is a better place in my absence. Goodbye.

Marsh
Defined by grasses and soft herbaceous plants which grow there. May be found inland near rivers or as tidal salt marshes near the coast.

Swamp
Ecosystems dominated by trees or woody shrubs, growing in water deep enough to row a boat through. Contain nutrient rich sediment and soil.

Bog
Mostly made of peat and spongy moss. Gets most water from rainfall. Contain nutrient deficient soil. Always acidic. Only specially adapted creatures can survive here.

Fen
Gets most water from ground water, such as glacier runoff. More nutritious soil than a bog, capable of supporting more diverse ecosystems. Water may be weakly acidic, neutral, or alkaline.

Mire
Any wetland area which forms peat. Bogs and fens are types or mire, but some marshes also qualify.

Quagmire
A floating mire.

Vernal pool
Only seasonally wet. May contain distinctive organisms, adapted to survive long periods of dryness. Usually no fish, so they may be full of amphibians.

#BogTalk2020

I read a good thing the other day, don't remember if it was here or screenshotted somewhere else, that was someone talking about their experience of executive dysfunction being like always feeling they were waiting for something to start, but there wasn't a thing so that feeling never went away and they could never do things.

Do you know what I'm talking about? I'd love a link.

What'd be an easy, cheap source of a few cubic cm of neoprene or other dense foam? Looks like a bit of the partially foam sole of one pair of particularly nice boots has basically decomposed, so I'm thinking I can try stuffing the gap with something similar and using an appropriate glue to secure it all; just the glue now doesn't work - probably too much of a gap, coupled with the very soft nature of the degraded foam.

Request for Suggestions (Please boost!):

Hi all! My reading group is looking for anarchist texts that get a little deeper into theory, praxis, and history of anarchist thought, but are still modern enough to be accessible. Kropotkin, et al, are great, but we're looking for something that's more like a modern summary/analysis of Kropotkin (if y'all get what I mean).

Happy to hear any suggestions you might have!
