once again I reiterate that I have never found a more effective barometer for "is this space safe for my fat cis body" than "show me your specific policies for creating a safe space for trans bodies"

it has a 100% success rate everywhere from doctors to waxing to clothing-optional soaking pools

That's right. You got no leg to stand on, Newsom supporters. Shut your hole. We don't need anti trans anti homeless greaseball shit. North Carolina is purple, it's not some blue stronghold.

I'm trying a new cold-stratifying method outdoors, I'm hoping it works! May even have milkweed sprouts in a month or two... fingers crossed

what is the opposite point on the earth from where he is and how can I get there

Good afternoon! It's day two of "Sell All the Stuff Before We Close The Shop for Bree's Surgery" and I'm preparing another short thread of thinks I've finally restocked!

Starting off are one of our most popular coaster sets! These always go pretty fast, but I have 5 now!

trying out a new feature, lmk if it works

"BUTTERFLIES remember being caterpillars despite being turned into GOO before they emerge from the chrysalis!!!"

"Ma'am this is a Menard's, please pay for your garden gloves and leave"

Exactly! HOW DO THEY KNOW TO DO ALL THESE THINGS? I've read books on it and it's still a total miracle. (also often scientists are like, dang, that's wild -- we actually do NOT understand that part of it)

Fantastic! I love hearing about any sized pollinator garden. Makes me really happy!

The more you learn about butterflies, the more your brain explodes in a good way, I am totally serious. You know how Moby Dick is basically one dude losing his shit about Whale Facts? That's me with butterflies. They do all this ⬇️ THEN FLY THOUSANDS OF MILES TO THE RIGHT PLACE FOR BREEDING WTAF

ALSO I will come over and help plant them if you want! (I love doing this.) Also also, I just ordered 64 plugs, in case you want some of mine. (They'll be pretty small year one-- but the butterflies still lay eggs on them & they're still useful as food for the caterpillars). 🌸

No that's a great question! Some plants are major spreaders (I am always fucking up plant spacing). With milkweed, IMO you can plant them pretty close together. Esp year 1, each stalk takes up less than a foot. You can cluster them, I think! Could fit a dozen or so in a smallish space, I think!

Oh I have to go to that one! It's a hike from where I live, but I should go. I have been to the nature museum in Lincoln Park recently -- they have a butterfly room and it's so, so lovely! thanks for the reminder re the other spot!

No matter how metal other animals may seem, how many are "just ate my own former skin" metal? that's fucking hardcore. I respect it.

Very very cool! They are sooo fun to watch. Love it!

they eat, they eat, they rest. They shed their skin--then eat their skin (as one does)--then they eat more. Rinse & repeat. They rest hanging upside down in a J. Shed their skin 1 last time, sit in a chrysalis, soup-ify themselves & emerge as a TOTALLY DIFFERENT THING THAT CAN FLY. Never gets old.

Not kidding even a little: Watching butterflies fly around is so good for my mental health. Even better: Listening to & watching them them absolutely house entire milkweed leaves. My favorite thing in summer is watching caterpillars just go wild on those leaves. I find it calming & restful! 💚 🐛

I kept needing this, so I finally made it.

I don’t care what they say this is a good website

I am going to try to capture this to some extent for my book, which is about Battlestar Galactica (which def did a lot of commentary on those times & war & torture etc), and it's like... I think unpossible to truly describe it. fucking "freedom fries," man.

we also got this shit, including People naming him one of the sexiest men alive

I really cannot overstate how completely bonkers the Iraq War era was if you didn’t live through it

I was radicalized by a kind elderly Presbyterian minister in a brightly colored cardigan who played with puppets and told me that people could like me exactly as I am and that everyone is different and that's great and we should like them exactly as THEY are.
