I grow giant plants purely by accident because I like my house like the tropics. I have Giant African Millipedes but they are giant by design so not my fault. And now I've typed 'giant' so many times it doesn't look like a real word anymore. GIANT.

Yup! I really believe a lot of written advice on plants is just a "How to kill so you'll buy again" guide. ๐Ÿ˜‚ Give your fern as much direct light as you can and I promise it'll double in size every year. And like I said, it'll droop when it needs water then drown it! โ™ฅ๏ธ

I sat it on that south facing window ledge, in the height of summer, and didn't water him. And look at him now! Treat them like a fittonia and give them bright light and water when they droop. Fern growers like to lie to us so they can feel special. ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜‚

Let me tell you, for 25 years, every fern I got died in a fortnight. And it's because I followed the advice everyone gives for ferns. They want shade. No direct light. They need high humidity. Don't let them dry out! So a few years ago, when I was given this 4.99 IKEA fern by a work mate (cont.)

And this is why I don't let any man stay overnight at my house. Best friend, friend, it doesn't matter. They're all capable of doing something like this and unfortunately, there's no way to tell which ones will.

I'm from a generation that had to block people face to face and as satisfying as that was, the block button is much less time consuming.

I'm trying to think of something you would "take a bullet" for that's more embarrassing than Chump. You local Ihops' carpet? Hepatitis? The scum that forms on a hottub left unused under a pine tree for 4 years with no cover?

I want reincarnation to be true. I will be coming back as a huge man who punches other men in the face the SECOND they say or do ANYTHING I deem problematic towards women. And if you men reading this did the same, the problem would disappear in a couple of generations. Think on...

Found out last week that Old Man Pecan has hyperthyroidism. He turned 20 last month so he's made it far without medical issues. But with medicine and new high fat food, he's on the mend! Got a few more years left in my old man! Have some pink nose and toes to celebrate. โ™ฅ๏ธ

I wonder if a woman walked up to them with a baby and said 'Here, you told me to have it so now it's yours" what they would do? Call the police probably and have her arrested. These people need to get a fucking life.

Notice they're never outside government buildings, protesting at the lack of funding for homeless children/foster children/abused children or children living in poverty. Hypocrites! If only hell were real these soggy bags of shit would be boiling in it.

They go to jail yet our government grows it to sell to other countries. Another show of "One law for the poor and another for the rich."

It says when someone asks what you're going to do with all your plants: "I will do what queens do. I will rule."

I was under the impression that criminals couldn't get a visa to visit the UK. But then I'm not an inbred monarch who runs my cars on excess wine.

Just a little reminder for my #plant people at this time of year. Please remember that 90% of cut flowers that people may buy you in the coming months are full of the plant pests that we spend our time and money trying to keep out of our homes! As pretty as they are, keep them in another room! ๐Ÿชดโ™ฅ๏ธ

They're not mad. They're the British equivalent of Trumpers. Racist but constantly deny the things they say are racist. Misogynist but claim they just "Say it as it is". Uneducated except for the rich ones who knew it would benefit them. Twinning! ๐Ÿคฎ

So then they can afford to adopt some kids right? In fact, why isn't America sending money to orphanages if it's so concerned about children? Hypocrites each and every one of them. I hope they choke on their religious indignation. People with nothing better to do than bully women in the street.

I have never worked in that industry but all it takes is 5 minutes watching people do that job to know that it's fucking difficult, dangerous, back breaking and ESSENTIAL. I have zero tolerance for keyboard warriors talking about how "people don't want to work". NO BITCH. YOU don't want the job!
