First part of a Twitter thread by @SamAsIAm:
"A friend who is a municipal arborist just called to tell me about a guy who cut down 32 big mature trees on his neighbor's NJ property to get a better view of NYC. He hired a guy who hired another guy. Cut them down and left the debris there. The fine per tree is $1000 so the 1/

2/ guy propably thought he was going to just pay a $32k fine. But the arborist wrote violations to all 3 parties, 96 in all (by hand, took him 12 hours) and there's a provision requiring the replanting of like trees "of the same size." And it's on an inaccessible by road"
Continuation of Twitter thread by @SamAsIAm:
"3/  mountainside. He put the affronted landowner in touch with the only guy who would take on such a job. Thry have to build a road, remove the debris, plant big trees and water them for two years. He quoted $1.5 million. And additional fines total $400k. I hope whoever this ass

4/4 is he can't pay and they lien and sell his property, the value of which he probably figured would be increased so much a $32k fine was worth it, to cover the cost. We are living in the Jaime Dimon ethos. "So fine us, we can afford it.

4/5 The PS to this is I was just given a zoom link to the 1st court hearing tomorrow. I'm not sure if it's just for trail participants or spectators can use it, but if they let me observe I'll add more. It doesn't appear to have been picked up by any news source yet."
Quote Tweet by @ParSpec:
"Apparently NOBODY ELSE IN THE QUOTE TWEETS RESPECTS TRADITION ENOUGH TO POST THE TREE LAW COMIC"
A 1-page comic by u/reachling:
Panel 1: A saddenned person with short hair looking at a tree stump, their hands are holding the sides of their head. They're saying "Oh no! The rare cherry tree grandma brought with her from the old country! It's been chooped down!!" and then in another speech bubble "And only a week after the new neighbor complained about it blocking his view too!"

Panel 2: The young person turns around with a befuddled look on their face. A speech bubble from the bushes says "Tree law?"

Panel 3: A bald bearded lawyer with a suit and briefcase looks from behind a picket fence and says "Tree law?"

Panel 4: Another lawyer with shades pops their head from inside the bushes and says "Tree law?!"

Panel 5: Another lawyer crawls from under the stump with a briefcase and says "Tree law!!"

Panel 6: The four lawyers carry the young person above them. The person is looking confused. Two of the lawyers are holding pitchforks and torches. Around them are raining dollar bills. The lawyers are chanting "Tree! Law! Tree! Law!"

Thank this person so much for making this post. You have my love❤❤❤

I feel like people with RSD deserve to feel a little bit brave for simply deciding again and again to try to form relationships and friendships and choosing to participate in their communities. Like, if every day you run the risk of feeling like you just got punched in the chest because somebody looked at you askance and you still decide to get out of bed and interact with people you’re doing well and being brave in a way few people will ever understand.

Tooka Interviews

I'm sure you've all seen puppy interviews, where celebrities hawk their latest project while petting adorable puppies. Notable ones include Chris Evens, Tom Holland and Keanu Reeves

So, in an AU where Fives succeeds, Palpatine dies and everyone is happy, the clones are petitioning for their rights, right? And how best to motivate political change?

Positive public images.

Remember, under Palpatine's influence, the main sentiment among Core world residents was that clones were basically droids. So to change that, Riyo Chuchi - as the senator spearheading the push for clone rights - organizes for a tooka interview, a gimmick to get people's attention.

First up is Fives, the clone who saved the Republic. He is genuinely good on camera, a bit of an inspirational speaker but still relatable, and he's overjoyed by the tookas without letting them derail the interview.

Riyo is so pumped at how well it went, she negotiates for even more interviews.

And it makes the most sense to start with Fives' commanding officer, Captain Rex. But Rex outright refuses at first but is convinced when he's told he can be paired with another high-rank officer. Obi Wan is about to suggest Cody, but just a single look is enough for the Jedi to reconsider.

Ultimately, Fox is not happy about being voluntold to join Rex by his still mostly secret girlfriend, but her reasoning is sound and he really can't say no to Riyo anyway. Little does he know though that she may have let the whole thing slip to Thorn, who not only records it, but plays it on the holoprojector for the entire guard.

Hardcase is also alive in this AU, and he writes a very polite email to Senator Chuchi explaining why he would be a great interviewee (he really just wants to be smothered by a giant pile of tookas.
