yesterday someone posted a closeup of moss on a street to show how fascinating it is. i can’t find it anymore, but it was cool. maybe somebody still has that picture?
Go to Iceland and there are huge fields of lava rocks covered in a thick yellow-greenish moss because there isn’t enough soil for anything else to grow. It is surreal and probably what most of the earth looked like for those 40 million years
That is also not a moss. It is actually a flowering plant in the euphorbia family. It is related to poinsettias, rubber trees, crotons and milk tree cactuses.

Yes. Seconding and insisting you drive to this restaurant in the Westfjords. I hated seafood until I went here and it broke me. I now love seafood.

If you wanted to look at other cool plant photos I’ve taken I post on iNaturalist a lot. Here’s one of some wild lettuce: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/239182317
