        I guess cause when the name was made, a good place for a battle was a big ole field. (Speculation)

        Yeah, what the fuck?

        A plain is mostly grasses. Meadows, fields, and battlefields have flowers.

        And love can bloom on them.

  • mrmacduggan@lemmy.ml ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Theorycrafting this - Tundra would be a nice name. So would Mesa, Fen, and Delta.

  • SolarMonkey@slrpnk.net ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Wow it didn’t even occur to me that paludariums were so named because that’s the type of ecosystem they are mimicking, rather than some guy named Paul invested a cool-style terrarium/aquarium merger… (example below)

    TIL!

    Well, Tundra is already in use. Forest is more common than you know. Arid would work if it didn’t mean what it does.
