I promise y’all don’t all have ADHD just bc this is relatable, but if it is within your financial means and you think there’s actually a serious possibility, please consider getting professionally diagnosed - could radically improve your life

Took a trip to see Pando, the largest known organism on the planet. Aspens tend to reduce clonally, and all of these individual stems actually share a root system and are genetically identical, so this entire stand is technically one individual tree stretching for over 100 acres
