A hot spooky girl with black lipstick is in a stained glass window with echinacea and underneath the words Plant Native Plants in a spooky font

I was gonna hold off on releasing these shirts, BUT they are sick as hell & I wanted to show you.

Imagine a world... in which Goth Girls Gardened...

GASP! You're living in that world RIGHT NOW.

My vote is on purpose. These are the same idiots that tried to flood the server room and deleted all the secret service texts from J6. This isn't their first rodeo, and the regime hates discovery.

My great-aunt just died from the flu. I don't know anything more, other than she was taken off life support today. I'm now going to have to make a choice of going to see plague rat family members or skip it for the health of myself and my husband. Fuck this timeline.

Paphiopedilum orchid. The pouch is a a deep purple, the petals are green with purple spots, and the dorsal sepal is green and purple stripes with what seems to be pink as the base color.

Finally! And of course my orchid guy is on vacation so I have to wait for an ID. 🤣

This is beyond shameful. I want to follow behind 47 supporters with a bell, game of thrones style, tomorrow and cry "shame!"

Hoya aff. lambii blooms just before they open. Honestly, ugly as fuck looking blooms of yellow and pink. Hopefully they look better once they open. The green leaves are large and have "abs" and pink splash.

Waiting for my Hoya aff. lambii to open!

‘Northern Exposure’ actor gave ICE agents in Redmond her tribal ID. They called it ‘fake,’ she says Indigenous actor Elaine Miles of "Northern Exposure" was detained by ICE at a Redmond bus stop. When she showed them her Tribal ID, they told her it was fake.

I can't even tell you how many times I have been profiled by randos like this.

I do want to bring awareness to the fact that the people's they are targeting are indigenous to the Americas, and these pasty white European descendants have the balls to say *they* do not belong.

As one of your constituents in PDX, please ask Schumer to step aside since he clearly can't keep the line or meet the moment. We need actual leadership right now.

*pulls up to our food place*
Other half: What do you want?
Me: Big a$$ f-ing burrito, I'm starving!
Other half: *laughs*

Oatmeal for breakfast was too long ago, and I've been hungry for 90 mins now, and somehow managed not to buy everything bad for us in the grocery store. Chunky salsa aside.. 😆

Clearly that should say "as soon as the sun goes down" 🤦‍♀️

A clear pot with an orchid that is about 5 to 6 inches tall. The flower is off to the side. The flower is white and start shaped.

Angraecum didieri orchid. It smells very very very very floral as soon as the run goes down. I keep it in my bedroom and mistakes were made. 😂

You know Temu Goebbels is feeding him something good. Everything reminds me of that one idiot at a game store that likes to twist the rules to fit what he wants to do, because they didn't expressly SAY he could(n't) do it that way.

In social movement studies, we talk about how marches and protests expand the threshold of acceptable risk so that people take more and bigger social risks IN PUBLIC, EN MASSE. This is extremely important for the bourgeois white folks holding signs and building social rapport.

#NoKings

Got the flu and covid vaccines. Already feel like crap. Every single time. 🤪 Worth it, but also hope I didn't spend the next 36 to 48 under a blanket so I can go to no kings.

Great thread on the distinctive political culture of Portland, by a US historian who is very much from Portland.

Yeah, he's got something going on that they are trying to (terribly) hide. A blood draw and EKG would be really easy to just sneak into the WH if it was just routine tests for meds like Hoz has to do.

Freshly planted cottonwood seedling. Pink flag marking the spot. Donut of mulch around the base. Wetlands in the background.

Decided to go out and plant some trees with our local nonprofit. We managed to do 600 trees in 2 hours our group was so large. Feeling a little dirty, hot, and sweaty. Also, my arms might be noodles.

Bringing these shirts back for the fall, shipping in early November 🫡

Shot of downtown Portland from I-26.

Shot of the Willamette river off of I-5.

Shot the other side of downtown from I-5.

Portland stands! I was told our town was war ravaged! 🙄

An Undulata hoya plant with a new leaf coming in.

Taking a bit of plant life to a friend in our war ravaged town. 🙄

Had this same idea when I realized I he decided to do this on a day I am actually going from the west side of town to the east side of town for a plant sale. I have a ton of MAGA family, so it'll help them and their friends.

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA

10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

I work for a hospital (just a lacky, nothing health related), have excellent health insurance through them, but my husband is having issues getting into see his primary.

Several requests, and no call back. Thankfully, his specialists pre-book his next appointments before he leaves their office.

My mother started posting about him out of the blue. I think there are some Christian circles he is in, and they sanitize his message a lot. Needless to say I was shocked to see my pro-LGBTQ mother post about him, but she is very much a church person. 🤷‍♀️

Sarah holds up an eel facts advent calendar in front of colorful plants. The calendar has 24 scratch off boxes with 5 species of eels on the calendar, including a yellow moray, splendid garden eels, ribbon eels, and american and european eels

HEY.

You get an eel facts advent calendar yet?

I leave for the squid conference in Japan in about a month so pretty please order them in the month of September. They're so cute and nice and hey you could even count down to Halloween if you wanted to.

Get one at EelFacts.net

A really tiny red jumping spider checking out my lunch bag. Probably 1st or 2nd instar tiny.

My lunch time companion.

Old Rite Aid store that is now being used for a Spirit Halloween.

August was a hard month as we lost both of our geriatric ferrets within a week of eachother. They'll be missed. 💔

In other news I felt this picture was a perfect encapsulation of our current healthcare reality. This used to be a Rite Aid.

Pick an organ and google scholar it + covid and you'll wonder why the hell our world governments said it was ok to catch as often as people do... but then again... that means they'll have to pay to fix this mess, so I'm not surprised at all.

We've done 9s so far, but have plans to do a 10 today. I'm hoping it doesn't hurt too bad..
