There is no such thing as a black thumb. Especially if we are talking about houseplants. House plants generally need very specific conditions to thrive. Gardens outside are trial and error. Tenacity is the key. And being fine with replacing plants. Even seasoned gardeners have to.

okay it's time for a prompt post: respond to this post with a correction to a common misconception about something you know a lot about. if you feel like it, boost your response. (please use a kindly tone about it, otherwise i, your prompt curator, will get anxious.)

It's so true.

show me a picture on your device that has your energy but isn't a selfie

Just a teeny bit of wilflife in my garden.

I had a very successful small business and met some of my best friends because of social media. I also learned a ton of valuable information to self-advocate for myself when I became disabled.

It’s funny cause people tell me *all the time* how they’ve learned from me and found community through my posts and been uplifted and connected to others and gotten tools to recognize and fight hate and felt less alone in the world. But I guess fuck that right? I’m not accomplishing anything.

Stream done. The rock bridge makes me happy.

Uhhhh ....so yeah, that is a straight up fascist threat.

Idk if I'm stating the obvious, but justices never write/speak like this. She's telling the world this is a five-alarm fire and the coup is on.

As Justice Elena Kagan wrote in her dissent last Friday, “The majority disdains restraint, and grasps for power” — and the justices are “making a laughing-stock” of long-standing judicial principles. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

The Supreme Court Is a Joke. It’s Not Funnywww.rollingstone.com The justices accidentally, repeatedly referenced laughing gas in a disastrous ruling before declaring that judges know better than agency regulators.

@blackmudpuppy.bsky.social Can I ask how to attract more reptiles to my gardens? I have water sources. I have toads and frogs. No chemical uses on anything. I have several compost piles. Anything else?

I have started the stream and tiny pond. Big pond is still up front.

Instead of giving myself a panic attack worrying about .....everything... I will be in my garden. Trying to be less stressed. Pic dump incoming at some point.

Every climate scientist I know reacted to this bill like it was Christmas and Mardi Gras rolled into one, and hardly anybody has any idea it happened at all.

This is the way.

Don’t marry for money. Marry based on how many varieties of bread your partner can make in one day.

For. Real. Bisexuality is valid. I am valid. I belong at pride.

but in some parts of the community, I will never be welcome. Bi or enbie, it just isn't queer enough for some people. usually I can ignore it & pretend i don't hear them. this Pride, I am not taking it anymore. We're queer. we deserve to exist and take up space. no apologies. Happy Pride. 2/2

Linda and I spoke on the phone once. She was supportive and kind when I needed it most. I will never forget her. She was genuine and amazing. I am also very angry.

On May 31, 2020, she posted from the hospital: “My job is to witness and they only got my left eye. My right one is good to go.” And she went back to work. But the injury from that shot lasted, and lingered, and yesterday it was reported she entered hospice.

Garden season looks like this... Trust me, get yourself a nailbrush.

So if you're worried about your soil not being good enough to garden.. This is how my entire yard started.

Oh....oh IT IS ON. You mfers leave Dolly the hell alone. She is the model of generosity and using celebrity for good.

they came for Dolly. we ride at dawn.

I am fairly certain this is a native bee. They hover around and don't fly like regular bees. Anyone in the feed have an idea?

Joy, is sitting in the garden and listening to the bees. Native plants are so busy when they are in bloom.

Now begins my annual quest to get folks to save clearance rack plants. Why yes, I have been to Lowes. But this works atany big box store. What are we looking for on the clearance racks? Personally..I am after perrenials for a steal. Let's peek at today's haul.
