ugly isn't near the top of the list of things I think about when looking at that statue, but I will say that similar sculptures and paintings in Middle Eastern language are far more pleasing to look at because Western alphabets are so blocky and rigid.

whereas i can look at paintings of Arabic letters all day:

whoooaaa good share that is very cool

just went through this looking up what a daruma doll is.

I read a couple sentences and then realized it was ai slop

My friends went without me to the Portland naked bike ride because I was nervous and I regret missing out on the experience to this day.

they loved it.

that guy rocks, if anyone hasn't seen his 43 marathons in 51 days documentary, it's pretty great btw

I know it should have been earlier, but that really is the last straw for buying Nintendo products for me.

what a shame.

for anyone surprised at this, I learned from an Ask Lemmy thread that the age of sexual consent in well over half of the USA is 16 years old, in something like 30 states.

up until that point I figured it was 18 across the US.

I was real wrong.

amazing it iant "ever".

world war 2? did Roosevelt have a crazy low approval rating?

Roosevelt's approval rating was worse than a rapist?

these are actual questions, I can't figure it out to phrase the question on Google.

they wanted smoked cheese on the side of the granola after you made it?

my two cents being a fan of passive gardening:

I would let it be, especially if it looks healthy, you're sure it has twice as many leaves as it did before and it's already survived a winter.

even if you're careful with the root structure, just a move by itself and certainly removing clumped dirt from its roots will shock the plant.

using new soil would have been good, but if it's still growingnand healthy then you did fine.

if it hasn't grown much yet, that could be due to the clumped dirt, but maybe not, and if it's still growing then I would let it do its thing since it's already figured out how to grow where it is.

As the roots get thicker and stronger, they'll eventually break up that clumped dirt and its roots will continue to expand, whereas removing the clumped dirt or trying to move it will definitely shock the tree again.

if you have plenty of time and you want to do something for the tree without accidentally interrupting its growing process, you could add a sort of soil platform on the hill like this:

you don't need the bricks, though you'll probably have to pack the dirt in around its sides a couple times over the next few years before plant roots take hold and it holds its structure by itself.

take soil from a place you don't need the extra soil or grab free soil off Craigslist and build a flattened platform around the tree so that it has a flat place to extend its roots so it doesn't have to dig downhill as hard and will have more easily available water but:

again, if the tree is healthy and growing, you're good and it will likely keep growing if you leave it alone, plus this sort of soil platform will be some amount of work, but if you want to do something and have the time, inclination and soil, it won't interrupt how the tree is naturally growing now and will provide more available water and give it the opportunity to expand its root structure laterally rather than having to do more work digging down.
