Are we sure he's not having a medical emergency?
"I was layin' out there for two damn hours before anyone came to check on me! Heat stroke, it turns out. Just as well it wasn't a stroke stroke, I'd be dead."
Also looks like he rolled down that hill a bit. Don’t help, just film.
Not the onion
I'd say this is the onion
No, it's the onionS.
Are you sure they're naps?
Sure! He hasn't moved for days. Must be really comfy!
It must be a box office worthy dream
Dirt naps.
Thank you for the onions.
All fun and games until you wake up at home with 3 items missing from your inventory and a massive bill from Harvey.
It's My Farm I'll Pass Out If I Want To
If the NPCs can lock me out of their homes at night no matter how many hearts I have with them, I can deny them access to my property at night too. Get off my lawn!
EDIT: I was backscrolling the posts on this community on my instance and did not notice the comment age. Sorry. Hope anyone else doing the same finds this comment helpful?
This is because farming is fucking exhausting and he just couldn't make it back to the house.
Across the plants‽ Is he mad‽
Onions don't give a fuck, you can top the foliage and that shit will just grow back.
TIL onions enjoy being dominated
+1 for interrobang
He's dead
Onions are part of the Allium family, along with garlic, lilies, chives, etc. It's very tough.
I'm not going to start using it.
This is adorable, but all I can think of is bugs and spiders and ants.
I lie down in my backyard. In Australia. There are ants of all kinds. The occasional little spider goes past. Midges and butterflies and dragonflies and bees. The birds have gotten used to me so they walk within feet of me too.
They go about their business and I, mine. No harm has come to me. It's nice to be part of their world sometimes.
Its weird, as a kid i had no problem laying/rolling around in grass.
At some point a switch flipped in my head and grass everywhere 'became infested' with biting ants, hidden poop, and mud.

You really have to listen to what the onions are saying, to get the best results.
I talk to mine.
Man youd get covered in bugs so fast.. not sure it would be as enjoyable as we think
Onions keep a lot of pests away, I am by no means a farmer, but I know from gardening that onions are a great deterrent for pests.
Do onion fields smell like onions?
Yes.
Onions and field naps. This guy is living his best Shrek life.
all i can think of is Heat Stroke
He's actually laying on a giant brown trampoline
The second photo was taken a split second before he was bounced into the stratosphere.
Wheeeeee
He's actually having a stroke
Well yeah, he owns a farm.
I thought you were supposed to till across the incline, not down it.
Depends on the incline, too steep and you can start slipping
yep. rolling is more fun.
"Won at life"
Well, may if it were a nachos field.
Onions farm? Each year same plant? That's not good for soil.
A common practice used to be rotating the fields, but unfortunately as pesticides and fertilizers have "improved," it's less common for big farms like this.
One way to tell if you have healthy soil is to poke into the dirt and see how long it takes to find a worm. Fields like this? Good luck finding any.
This man has everything a man needs. Well, except a robotic combine harvester obviously.
hmm... breathing in some of the good pesticides...
And then an asian women in an orange jumpsuit with strange boots casually walks onto the scene.
She's quite exhausted as well,, doesn't talk much and is dragging some weird cube.
She sits down next to him and stares toward the dàylight moon, hoping he'll wake up soon.
Hoping he won't want her gone.
Now, I only want you gone.
I suppose I'm not even angry.
Also I can see two dms from you, but in my dms section, swiping to reply (as works on Thunder to reply in any other part of the UI) does not work.
Going to your profile page yields no buttons to reply.
Maybe I have to do some kind of ... adding of lemmy.world, somewhere in the UI, as I'm from .zip, and dms follow some kind of different protocol than commenting on posts?
???
Or maybe I'll try Odyssey and its less borked?
Edit: Sync, not Odyssey, getting my FOSS apps mixed up.
I guess the fire ant problem hasn't made it there.
They don't like onions
They don’t like onions
FIREANTS DON'T LIKE ANYTHING. Even other fireants. So glad they don't live here.
They say onions have layers, and this man is one of those oniony layers.
Ruler of the Onited Kingdom. I'll find my way out...
Just chilling outside is an underrated activity.
Over the past several years I put a privacy fence around the back yard and built a nice koi pond to sit next to. Sitting there, because of course I have a sittin’ chair now like an old man, is both relaxing on its own and is a great time to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of modern life (even Lemmy!). I often leave my phone in the house, but even when I have it with me it’s become easier to ignore.
For those of us lucky to have the big three mental health issues, it’s a nice self-care treatment for anxiety and depression, and an opportunity to practice controlling my attention. But it’s in addition to my medications, not a replacement for them.
But obviously it’s not the solution for everybody, and not even possible for everybody either. But just getting outside to some natural sights and sounds is what really matters. I’m sure it’s even better if exercise is involved (hiking, etc) but I have legit issues with both heat and sun so I keep my oasis close to my air conditioned home.
Most onion hating Frenchman.
I'm crying tears of joy.
Never seen an onion field. What an ugly crop.
There's layers to it though
There is no actively growing onions in the field. It looks like it's about ready to seed.
The brown rows is likely barley. It's used as a cover crop over sandy soil. Before they plant the onions they spray the field with an herbicide. The beds are cultivated and seeded leaving a few inches of the dead barley.
The rows of dead barely acts as a windbreak to reduce sandblasting of the young plants with the wind.
I mean they aren't exactly pretty, but when they aren't dead/not-yet-planted they look like this
Doesn’t matter; tastes amazing
These kindo farming is bad for the nature
Peeps saying farming bad,
like rest of world is forest area and not skyscrapersAll farming is bad for nature. There is no such thing as environmentally friendly farming. The "less damaging" methods of farming are "it only destroying 95% of the habitat, not 98%."
We could grow everything we need with 1/2 of the land if we banned dry land farming and moved to all irrigated. What's better? less damaging farming or millions of acres re-wilded.
Your grandpa jerka off in his onion field under the guise of taking a nap... which is not an argument against but rather an argument for your grandpa winning at life.
monocultures like this mean death for bees. poor things fly 300m or maybe 1000freedomfries at best...so this is a dead brown plane that will dry fast.
this man is destroying our planet. that is what he is doing.
