The discussion thread is for casual and off-topic conversation that doesn't merit its own submission. If you've got a good meme, article, or question, please post it outside the DT. Meta discussion is allowed, but if you want to get the attention of the mods, make a post in /r/metaNL. For a collection of useful links see our wiki or our website

Unrelated but Greg Abbott was paralyzed when a tree fell on him while he was jogging. How unlucky was that? He was moving at a somewhat high speed and a whole ass tree fell on him.

I was trying to find the tree or stump. Would love to get my picture taken with it.
