My first thought was, this must smell really bad so i looked into it. Apparently they stock the “lakes” and when it rains (once every six months), all the fish die from the chemical runoff from everyone’s yards.
Is that chemical runoff from pesticides/herbicides? Or do they have to pump their lawns full of so much fertilizer to get the grass to grow there that the nitrate levels are through the roof?
I didn’t look into this specific place but I imagine those plus – cars – are enough to kill animals as small as fish. Non-gas (liquid and solid) pollution as I like to call them, from autos are plenty. Tire wear particles, random metal debris from chasis and drive-chain, fuel, oil, grease, coolant leaks, brake dust, exhaust soot, there’s a whole bunch of shit coming out of them than just CO2. Truely an evil technology.
Also, as explained in the HOA rules i linked in my other comment, people can’t swim in the lake (or eat the fish they stock it with; it’s strictly catch-and-release fishing) because it’s filled with reclaimed wastewater.
They say the fall of the Roman empire was seen to some as simply when their roads and bridges stopped being repaired, the fall of the yankee empire will be marked by no government workers showing up to stock your pond so it turns into a malaria cesspool

Unlimited genocide on arrowhead lakes.

Thank you o7
Also it’s ridiculous they “stock” artificial lakes with fish, ugh. The atonements they make, for the sin of being born as a non-human animal… :(
All of the above
Lawns

These things will become uninhabitable with 1/100 of the neglect of a Roman road.
no fucking way man that’s invoking the dead guinea pig copypasta with the snake
