About a year ago our cat went up the tree in our backyard and left his snap-off collar with an Airtag in a branch somewhere up there. We could ping it and hear it, but couldn't see it. So it got left up there for a year, rain, shine and hail. A couple of days ago I noticed it on the ground. Still working fine.


At least if somebody stole the tree, you'd be able to track it down easier than putting up lost tree signs all over the neighborhood.


Wish I had the courage to branch out into that kind of crime.

"my that is a handsome tree" -> do something bold. now wake up with that tree in your yard the next day and every day after.

that’s true freedom

why track it? if i woke up to discover a freethinking, freewheeling apex man of action took my tree, i would just admire them. and flattered this caliber of person thought i had anything worth seizing. i wouldn’t tell the police. (but if i could track it, i might go visit it to witness the man i wish i was)

if i was my girlfriend i might put a tracker into my finest tree, and leave me for any man that might ever take the tree. i couldn’t blame her. i would admire her
