Kudzu is a wildly useful plant. I sometimes regret never taking the opportunity to forage it when I lived in Georgia.

In California, we have Tumbleweed, and it’s actually really useful for stabilizing/fertilizing loose, disturbed soils and making shelter for native grasses and plants to start growing near. They also love to fuck with cars by jumping out in front of them at every opportunity.

I have kids; neither me nor the other parents I know show off our pictures of them. If we do, it’s usually because we’ve been asked, or it’s people posting stuff to social, which I don’t think is quite the same. If I had to guess, it’s an older generation thing. That said, I DO take pictures of my kids, but that’s almost always exclusively for sharing within the family.

There’s absolutely loads of them around Snelling and Mariposa. It’s a little out of control, though Mariposa 's been cleaning up the woods surrounding the creek, so they may not be as thick as they once were.
