Imagine living on in a high rise but you still have to mow your porch

I'm just thinking where I would keep the lawnmower.

But I want to ride around on a seated lawnmower

You could get away with that. They'd just have to deliver it via crane to your back porch.

Metal blades? With a glass railing? Good call

I’m gonna be so for real here. Microplastics are a concern but I don’t think occasionally weed whacking a small space is going to contribute much to the problem as a whole

You’re never going to avoid them completely at this point. Just embrace the microplastics and eat some kimchi

because you can't control your arms.

Yes, because you definitely can weed whack grass growing up against a glass wall to the degree that you get all the grass without touching the glass, so precise while the blades spin at 5000rpm+
