@Linkshaender Yeah the US has truly barbaric street wiring. Ugly and error prone. But to retrofit today would be an impenetrable morass of rights of way negotiations and the utility corporations are cheapskates like all other trades corps.

@MLE_online Honestly it needs to get cut from below, and soon. And days or a week from now it will be dangerous to even cut. It's kinda fascinating.

@tomjennings it could be bent over and still live. The dad of a friend of mine growing marijuana in his back yard and did that when it grew so tall it could be seen over their back yard wall

@tomjennings @MLE_online I’ve always felt that “looking up” is a foundational part of my personality. I think we’re a solid minority.
