Weed Conspiracy

 Weed Conspiracy, a newsletter, launching on Sunday October 10. It's about weeds in history, considering some truth and dying gracefully. Take a look. Take a chance. Visit: weedtruth.substack.com

How long have weeds been around? A very, very long time. When Socrates drank the hemlock (a poisonous plant) humans had already been arguing about weeds for thousands of years.

The argument deserves to continue. The alternative is ... well, not so good.

Do not go gentle into that good night

Rage, rage aginst the dying light

(Dylan Thomas, poem first published in 1951)
