Micromeria

Micromeria is a genus of flowering plants in the mint family, Lamiaceae, widespread across Europe, Asia, Africa, and North America, with a center of diversity in the Mediterranean region and the Canary Islands.[2][3][4] It is sometimes placed within the genus Satureja.[1] The name is derived from the Greek words μῑκρος (mīkros), meaning "small," and μερίς (meris), meaning "portion," referring to the leaves and flowers.[5]

gollark: Keanu, I think the best way to do enforcement would be one traffic turtle per government building.
gollark: I get the lasers much cheaper than market price by going to kepler's blaze farm then lemmmy, at least.
gollark: Admittedly the traffic turtles *are* really expensive (30KST laser+ ~5KST entity sensor + ~5KST turtle).
gollark: We don't need border security, just more traffic turtles.
gollark: Also traffic lights.
