CLAY ⭐ TERRAN! 🌟🌠✨

By the power of plot armor (d̷e̷a̷t̷h̷), he can't be turned into a marketable item. He's spared!

Happy moon landing day. 👍

Maybe, maybe!

Hmm, can you still touch and feel things? Their leaves feel pretty unique, I think they'd give a good sense of how they appear.

I'll see if I can try and find some...

mentioned earlier is fairly easy to look after, I've heard, but I don't own one personally nor have I looked into it.

Yup, yup, plant care can help with anxiety or mental health, just 'cause it can make us feel productive and helpful, much in the same way as helping other people. But less stressful if you ask me... don't need to worry about the social fuss.

Some plants are more finnicky than others. The one I

there and stuff. I mean, planets and other things too, but attaching a morality to the universe seems a little silly, don't you think?

Like calling mountains empathetic or something. But eh, even my dreaming's got limits. Everyone's kinda different.

I stopped thinking so lofty like a year ago."

"You say something like that, but then go on to wax poetic about the rest of outer space... I mean, it's not like I've got any first-hand experience with what's out there, nor do a lot of humans, and I might sound way too callous for saying this, but is just like.. y'know, just rocks and space out -

Either the aglaonema stripes, or the tiger jaw succulent... I dunno, I guess they strike me as a bit fearsome or robust, y'know?

Having one of those days where I feel like writing a new character but no idea who and also. I just Made this account, and should probably focus on it... writing muse is so fickle and spontaneous....

Oof, ouch, ow... better take it easy tonight, getting the ol' chest pains again..

The Dumbbell Nebula (also known as the Apple Core Nebula, Messier 27, and NGC 6853) is a planetary nebula (nebulosity surrounding a white dwarf) in the constellation Vulpecula, at a distance of about 1360 light-years.[1] It was the first such nebula to be discovered, by Charles Messier in 1764. At its brightness of visual magnitude 7.5 and diameter of about 8 arcminutes, it is easily visible in binoculars[4] and is a popular observing target in amateur telescopes. The Dumbbell Nebula appears shaped like a prolate spheroid and is viewed from our perspective along the plane of its equator. In 1992, Moreno-Corral et al. computed that its rate of expansion angularly was, viewed from our distance, no more than 2.3 arcseconds (″) per century. From this, an upper limit to the age of 14,600 years may be determined. In 1970, Bohuski, Smith, and Weedman found an expansion velocity of 31 km/s. Given its semi-minor axis radius of 1.01 ly, this implies that the kinematic age of the nebula is 9,800 years.[

Off-work now! ✨

Just 'cause they look nice, mostly. There's also studies that confirm that looking after plants and looking at them can make you feel more positive and healthier, too.

Actually, quite a few houseplants are toxic if you eat 'em or touch their sap. And there's even a variety of carnivorous ones...

It's never too late to give it a shot! I only got into it myself rather recently... with some research and practice, it's not too difficult to get the hang of.

@clusterflark.bsky.social

Calathea musaica... their leaves make me think of like, some kinda binary code? Mechanical, in a way? Very cool looking.

Y'know, it's so true... cutting your lunch into cute shapes makes it taste way better. Especially when the hotdogs look like little octopuses.

@maguswarlock.bsky.social
Peperomia caperata (purple/red ripple)... the flowering tendrils kinda make it look very space-like!

I almost went with an Alocasia cuprea, though... just 'cause it also looks quite alien.

@nefelibaka.bsky.social

An air plant might be the "obvious" pick, but going with an asparagus fern because the leaves look airy and cloud-y!

we haven't written too much (yet!) but I enjoy seeing your writing on the feed. if you gotta take a break, for sure take care of yourself and rest ^^ it would be sad to see you go but the decision is up to you to make.
