Ctenanthe lubbersiana? That patch with the darker spots looks fungal to me. I would check the roots, if they look healthy not dried up or rotten, I would get a fungicidal spay like captain jacks. Applied at night to avoid burning leaves. Could be an airflow issue as these plants like to be evenly moist and in relatively higher humidity or they crisp up along the edges. Without some good airflow fungus can spread.

Here is what the product looks like:

Well they can eat us when we croak so fair enough. If we don’t feed our cat sharply at 5 am makes us think she just might take a nibble.

Depends on where you are putting these, and where the light source is. If they are going to be alongside a south facing window or you plan to use grow lights, you could get some higher light plants like succulents, and herbs but that also is a pretty deep pot and succulent and cacti don’t have large root wads, so they could get overwatered easily.

I would say for bright indirect light a combination of heart leaf philodendron varieties like brasil, neon, micans look great cascading down the wall, scindapsis (also called satin pothos but isn’t has a lovely texture). Also pothos others mentioned but I like the form of the others better. Not sure how high above the tv these would be but they would have to be pruned back or they would cover the tv, also up higher on the wall generally you have less light unless you have skylights or floor to ceiling windows. Spider plants wouldn’t get super long but would drape over, you could also look at tradescantia varieties they can tolerate a little lower light.

You would buy these as plants not typically seeds. You can find pretty grown out plants at big box stores but even better check out your local nursery or plant shop.

This is just a pink salmon aka a humpy. Other species of salmon get the big overbite - called a kipe and big doglike teeth and usually more red coloration.

Frijoles rosados!

The Inflation Reduction Act- link to one page summary

Inflation reduction act

But was it as big as Klee Irwin’s description on his infamous TV infomercial for dual cleanse? I ask you…. I watched this infomercial in absolute awe and confusion once back in 2005/2006 eating lunch at home sick. I had to look this up again seeing this post.

Link to transcript description

“I’ll never forget the first time I saw my four-year-old daughter’s bowel movement in the toilet. It literally scared me. She wasn’t more than 45 pounds, but her bowel movement was about as thick as my wrist and about as long as her arm. And I thought, ‘Oh my God.’ I got scared. I was going to call my wife. I thought, ‘How could something that big come of something—a little child—that small. And I thought, I’m six feet tall and I weigh 190 pounds and by proportion to my size compared to hers my bowel movements were very inadequate to say the least.”

Ok Riddick…;)

This skin gives me trypophobia, thought it was a bunch of eggs at first. Also want to pet.

Happy International Women’s Day to everyone! I volunteered at an IWD event this week and it was really encouraging and always eye opening. Many of us feeling imposter syndrome in our work and this ever-gnawing anxiety about the direction things are headed but just sharing and witnessing the courage out there was inspiring. We are out here and you are not alone!

Thanks for reaching in! I am just going to celebrate by taking care of myself this weekend, sleeping in as best I can, squeezing my cat, getting a massage, taking a walk, and planning out my balcony garden ideas for this year.

Denying opportunities for wanted children for non-babies. To control the wombs of millions.

We thought so at first but she has a thicker coat, maybe part Maine coon or something? We call it her brownie batter 🤎

Loving that side eye action 👀

Potted Cats! Of the dicot variety, I believe.

Woooves come and the trump goes out, wooves come in and the trump goes out - 🐺👏👏👏

Such a regal floof. Those mitts 🥹!

Oooh I had a 45 second coughing fit- thanks flu and you dear poster!

Read The Indifferent Stars Above and Island of Sea Women and try saying that ignorant shit.

That’s how unions raise up the floor- they pass the idea that you are worth a fair wage on to others. Don’t begrudge people finally standing together to stop getting shafted by corporations.

These C\ScienceMemes are killing me. I love and NEED more of this. Time to learn how to meme. Well done all!

I coughed to death- thanksssss

Love for Moshow and his family 💚😻

There are other methods becoming more widely available In the US too such as Aquamation (alkaline hydrolysis) which yields similar remains like ashes you can spread and human composting (https://recompose.life/) which don’t emit fossil fuel emissions.

Not for everyone, sure, but I wanted to be composted. I liked that I would become a cubic yard of nutrient rich soil in about 30 days and will be utilized for forest restoration.

The mushroom shroud that breaks you down is also super cool but was pretty out of my price range.

Those lips! Nothing better than a void cat muzzle, I say. Toxoplasmosis here I come!

Hauled out seal pup position!

What a regal floof, and a void to boot! 💘

As long as we are using looser definitions mine are Pleisosaurus for an aquatic, Pterodactyl for air and Brachiosaurus for land.

Plus maggot juice leaking out the bottom is great for attracting birds and other wildlife!

Update: might be the great black wasp (Sphex pensylvanicus) I saw one carrying a katydid

I don care how many times I’ve seen this reposted, I will always upvote. Support your local bat rescues or Pennsylvania Bat Rescue if you want to see more of these cinnamon sugar buns!

He looks totally chill even as his branch is disintegrating! So cute 🥹

Cool! Yeah definitely not a macro camera user, but gotta post it if you got it.

These are the voids I’ve been looking for.
