You need to deploy them around the same time else contingency plans have it that everything just boots back up in another region, at least Google. us-east-1 otoh...

For now anyway you can use ublock to blow away:

  • the promoted inane shit
  • this fucker liked this inane thing
  • et al

Use the picker to select the element for the promoted and step up until you find ="promoted" in the selector. This works for the other bullshit they try and shove down your throat and your feed will be 98% less shitty.

There's a reason it is number 1

It's definitely a full-on Boss instead of a mini boss, it's an incredibly aggressive plant originally from Japan that nothing wants to eat here on the continent. Think bamboo meets dandelion.

Goats do not like it because of how bitter it is.

It attracts monarchs who lay their eggs and caterpillars on it eat it and die :(

It spreads aggressively through shoots and runners, under asphalt and concrete.

You better be sure to pull the entire root because it can regenerate from a small piece.

It flowers within weeks with dozens of flowers per vine, and each flower produces a seed pod with half a dozen seeds that are on dandelion-like structures so they get spread far and wide.

You cannot compost it or put it in yard waste pickups because it will happily sprout out of these mediums.

Most herbicides are ineffective, and it shrugs them off.

Mechanical control is the most effective method of removal, but mowing it is just teasing it.

Ask me how I know.
