AIDWDOY and Perfect Pair were alright... her voice sounded a bit strained in those

Full video from Scarborough 2026?

Saw a few clips and they're just phenomenal. Did anyone record the full concert? Has anyone posted it yet other than in reels? I know the new song got posted but I'd love to hear the others in full too.

A thought on Steinbeck's East of Eden (possible spoilers)

There's so much to discuss with this book, likely one of the greatest I have ever read.

But I was thinking about one thing in particular. In a way, there's poetic justice for Cal Trask, who, after feeling inferior to Aron in Adam's eyes, and never being seen as a more successful boy than Aron, will inherit Adam's ranch, the money Kate left Aron, and likely win over Abra as his wife. I'm happy Lee stayed around for all of this. Anyone else appreciate the resolution here?

Best practice for newly-planted trees and grade

I'm in NYC. A lot of trees are planted correctly with root flare at/above grade, but some are buried too deep. Others are planted with root flare exposed, but with the tree in a slight depression/hole vs the rest of the soil.

I am wondering, for root development and structure, is it better for a tree bed to be roughly even/flat or should the grade become lower towards the center/have a small ditch for water to collect? I think the idea of a slight depression in the soil is good for water absorption but I wonder if it makes the tree focus less on roots at the drip line and possibly create issues with roots at the center of the tree.

Eventually though, the water would pass through the root ball anyway where there's plenty of roots, so I"m not sure: is this type of planting better or worse than a flat grade? Or maybe it's good for new trees but should be leveled later on? Or maybe none of this matters much and it's somewhat superficial.

Advice with true root flare and woody roots

Hi all, newly planted Bloodgood plane in NYC. Light root flare visible when planted, but I have exposed more soil, and it doesn't widen much below.

Meanwhile, I've exposed woody roots (that were already starting to show) and what looks like the trunk going forward and flat beneath this.

My questions.

  1. did these woody roots develop at the nursery when it was planted too deep? Will i ever be able to, or should I ever, cut them? Does it even matter?

  2. is the area where tree goes forward horizontally the right depth for exposure? Can i just leave the 3 woody roots exposed? Do london planes have weird root flare?

Tree is doing well except for some minor leaf scorch on new leaves thanks to the heatwave. Watering when I can - it's a street tree.

Hoping for insight on this. Thanks!
