We laugh at how The Art of War is basically just, "An army can't fight if the soldiers aren't eating," but I'm reading this document about conservation of ancient yew trees and it legitimately says, "You should never fill the center of a hollow yew with concrete," so I think that probably making blatantly obvious statements is just the bane of being a specialist in anything
Ah yeah, that's actually not so bizarre when you know the reasons behind it. Still extremely wrong but understandable at least.
So yew trees are weird. They are extremely long lived with basically no known upper limit to their age. They do this by simply being extremely good at not dying like other trees do.
When a normal tree gets to an old age what usually happens is a fungus gets into their heartwood and takes hold. Their internal, dead wood rots away and they hollow out, lose structural support and collapse. Depending on the species this process can take decades or a good few centuries or so.
While yew trees do hollow out in this way they simply keep going afterwards. A ring shaped yew tree with most of its trunk missing is actually just middle aged and the most ancient yews get even weirder than that.
Wikipedia has this image of a Scottish yew where the start of this hollowing process can be seen. To be clear - for most tree species this would already have been fatal.
The thing is seeing a very old yew in this condition looks wrong to a tree surgeon, it's like the tree is constantly on the verge of death. So, if it's a well loved tree you try and do what you can to stop it from falling apart entirely.
A hundred years ago people tried all sorts of things like chaining up branches and also, yes, plugging the hollowed trunk with concrete. We know better nowadays.
Funnily enough there are even yews that survived this treatment and are still alive today.
This is a picture of the Tisbury yew in 1998 from the Ancient Yew Group, barely a minute ago from the tree's perspective.
Yews are fascinating plants with roots in European culture as ancient as the trees themselves. A few individual specimen trees are even estimated to be around five thousand years old - literally prehistoric in age.
Oh also they do weird things with sex as well sometimes. One of the oldest UK trees, the Fortingall yew appears to partially be turning from male to female on one side. It'll be interesting to see what becomes of it in the next few centuries of its life.
Sorry if this is all stuff you already know, I couldn't resist a chance to infodump about one of my favourite species.

What substances MAY we fill the centre of a hollow yew with?
no other warning like this is on any of the other products on the site.
month starting on a monday we have no excuse guys lets get to work and lock the fuck in
yk its actually very chic and avant garde to start on tuesday the second
many claim theres nothing more subversive and revolutionary than starting on wednesday the third
Obviously I love when women cover men’s love songs and don’t change the pronouns, but I have an extra special affection for when this happens with trad/folk music. Like yes I would like to imagine two 17th century peasant women meeting on the road and flirting wildly. I don’t even care if it ends in tragedy, I just get boost from hearing a woman sing about her “true love” with she/her pronouns in an old-timey context.
Put together a little playlist of trad songs like this (with a couple of original songs by primarily trad artists) — here! Thanks to @bravenot & @majestic-salad for the songs you mentioned in the notes/tags! I’ll update it if I can find any more.
Not to brag but I got the playlist at over 100 songs (and counting!) in time for Pride Month and I’m very happy with it :D

Qifrey being so heavily represented by silverleaf trees and calling Olruggio 'the sky's most kindest, radiant star'... and the story in chap 47 about the silverleaf trees catching a star in its branches, who falls in love with the maiden of the silverleaf, and who gives the maiden it's own magic, so she could live without suffering... and Olruggio forgiving and staying by Qifrey's side over all the years... yeah I'm normal about this

For those who don't know: Ikumi Nakamura is the woman who was senior artist on Bayonetta, and designed the titular character along with Hideki Kamiya. Their greatest moment of bonding was over their insistence that Bayonetta keep her glasses on at all times. Nakamura cannot go to horny jail. She is the warden.
Happy pride month to her and her exclusively
she made a comic about the experience on twitter

big fish, made out of junk
the funniest moment in dungeon meshi is when marcille is having her nightmare and brings up her dead bird while also talking about her dead dad, saying “papa and pipi” and laios automatically assumes pipi is marcilles third nonbinary parent on top of her mom and dad
And in a Freudian turn of events she ends up marrying a bird-woman. Pipi Complex.
