I'm pretty sure my dad drunkenly bought me a bonsai tree. But this was after several days and hours of discussions about my main issue of being unable to chip away at maintenance tasks, like work. Like this was my main concern: I CAN'T DO REGULAR MAINTENANCE. I AM INCAPABLE.

And a bonsai tree is literally the most antithetical gift I could possibly imagine because it needs intricate daily care and it lives forever. So...........

I'm just reeling tbh. I don't even want to confront him and I know he'll ask about it at some point, and I'll be like yeah it died 🤷‍♂️ and I'm just going to fixate on this forever jesus christ

What do?

    just do what i did: kill it on accident and then shamefully toss the little bonsai tree corpse away the next time you move.

    then get the lego bonsai tree. it's nice. it has spring and summer leaves. it uses frogs as cherry blossoms. it won't die even though you watered it except for that two weeks in july when you were out of the country.
