    Gonna admit, I initially read that as "abortionist" and was incredibly confused.

    Actually I think we all understand how you solve it

      Yeah pretty much just using a saw to cut branches at their base until there's one nice vertical one and strongly attached lateral ones. Easily understood in the space of... 30 seconds-ish?

        Not at all defending this ridiculous blanket, but I think you're conflating "tree trimmer" with "arborist," and they're not the same. Tree trimming is also slightly more complicated than that, if you enjoy keeping your skull intact.

          That also depends on the municipality. I'm going for my ISA certification and I'm on the scientific side of arboriculture where phytopathology/entomology/physics are all advanced elements requiring more than just that certification. But here every single person who works on a tree needs to be an ISA arborist. Even the shittiest tree trimmers are either certified or are hired with the possibility of certification in like 6mo, and the only professional difference between them and I is that I'm testing for climbing/risk assessment/municipal specialist certs which make me a more expensive arborist.

      Oh yeah? Well what if you have a pitbull and your mother has breast cancer? https://brightroomy.com/pitbull-mama-i-wear-pink-for-my-mom-breast-cancer-sherpa-fleece-blanket/

      To be fair, it’s likely an AI drop shipping clothes made by Chinese factories. But the fact they’re so prevalent means conservatives are buying them anyway

    Taking the ugly-ass designs from one of those automatically generated T-shirt sites (you know the kind, the ones who advertise "Don't mess with a CLAIMS ADJUSTER who was born in AUGUST" stuff on Facebook) and making quilts out of them is galaxy-brain level.

    I do kind of love this one: https://cdn.brightroomy.com/media/07-2021/there-is-no-such-thing-as-too-many-skull-fleece-blanket-dhc14111192vt-0.jpeg

    Also yes, they do indeed have a pharmacy technician one: https://brightroomy.com/pharmacy-technician-sherpa-fleece-blanket/?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiA9ourBhAVEiwA3L5RFrldAFwa9Fv-GpatP_LGhmq_QvaFB2KkaFCxhrC-g_y21UpTRxeFKxoCc_MQAvD_BwE

    Foucault's stupid floppy boomerang. The aesthetics of colonial exploitation will rebound and consume all jobs in the imperial core. We will all be flagfucking reactionaries whose personality and masculinity are tied to whatever job we have.

    Bitter much? Hahaha brainworms

    How much you wanna bet she is an arborist business owner who hasn’t climbed a tree in like 20 years and just does paperwork and phone calls all day?

      Nah I've seen this base image before, this is 100% one of those "edit your own designs onto this image to show potential customers" templates. Check out how straight the lines are, especially along the bottom, despite all the curves and folds of the quilt. As tacky as this is it's no more real than those stock images of white dudes wearing "I'm a sassy black woman" shirts.

      The single vertical brown line without competition for canopy space.

      I can't tell if someone actually made that design or if they just forced a computer to have nightmares about everything people could possibly form an identity around.

      edit: Also, I like that it's specifically the 23rd anniversary of Everybody Loves Raymond, 1996-2019. I need this as a full set of bedding and furniture covers.
