getting into plants was like this for me but only in natural areas because the vast majority of human placed plants in my area are non-native. like just living here is not enough, they need to do settler-colonialism with the plants too.

100%. Also, this is a completely different statement thanks to the “l” left out of “plants”.

It’s crazy how many invasive species are popular in urban areas.

I spent way too long trying to figure out what this meant. Did you just start literally getting into (i.e. wearing) pants? Is it a sex metaphor? Did you develop a hobbyist interest in one specific type of clothing?

And then I read on and realised all that mental effort was wasted because it was just a mildly amusing typo. Ah well, thanks for the chuckle.
