Yeah, I go for the Mrs. Doubtfire, "Hellooo!" as an exclamation rather than, "Hello?" the question. "Hello?" is also used as another way of saying, "What is your reason for calling?" in my opinion. There's also the angry, "HELLO?!" when there are repeat calls from the same person/number, and that translates roughly to, "What is wrong with you?! This better be important!"

I just don't understand. None of these regular ass people living regular ass lives (well, obviously not "regular", but you get what I mean) have any idea whatsoever about the facts and evidence of this case - including myself! There's been an investigation by authorities - the same as these people would expect if they were accused of something, and there's been a trial - which they'd also expect, and through that, enough factual evidence was presented that a conviction was given. How can someone really think they know enough to say it is all fake and false? You had nothing at all to do with this case. You only know the pieces and parts you've gotten from the publicly available information - which is very easy to fake and exaggerate, and you can't see the hypocrisy in the fact that you'd believe in and fully support the same investigation and trial by and with the same people if the result was the one you personally wanted? That is insane. So, they're doing their job correctly if they say what you want, but they're incompetent frauds who deserve a horrific death if they don't? What kind of system even is that?! Get all the way out with this shit. Your mom should be locked up. To immediately turn to "they should all die" is just fucking crazy. I sure hope she doesn't own any guns herself. She seems like the kind to pull one out when someone just cuts her off in traffic.

Why do dogs love cat ears? My dog use to gnaw on and lick my cat's ears all the time. She loved it and would lean into it. But why?

Oh wow! They're so nice! Thank you for the info.

....new botanical? Please tell me where to locate such a thing!

I just cut off all of the 'used' nodes on my flower spikes (the ones where flowers already opened the sheaths and emerged from). All I want is to experience one keiki, so I keep everything that is healthy. Currently have 2 green, cut spikes with another new one about to bloom, while new roots grow in and old ones extend.

If you focus mainly on the curled leaf on the leaf and the leaves in the back, you can see they are more round with solid green around the margins. This is just a very nicely patterned Manjula!

It is a really nice Manjula! I love the patterning.

I'm a crazy plant lady who has a LOT of plants. I have a huge black metal shelf at my kitchen window that you'd see in someone's garage that use to be covered in plants. My husband and I spent like a week turning a room in our home into a plant room, so most things ended up moving there since there's better lighting. Well, that black metal shelf has stayed up and now holds a huge Tatooine build on one shelf with Mos Eisley Cantina and Boba Fett's Throne Room and a few battle packs, then below that is Rivendell. I can just move the shelf Rivendell is on down until we have enough space for Barad-dûr! We may make a huge space base shelf too, but one thing at a time. Lol.

It is actually a pink thread nose, not their thumb. 🤣 I still thought it was a mouth at first too though.

And I genuinely thought all of those photos were photoshop/AI!

Yes and no. They're worry free for me in the spring, summer, and fall because I keep them outside, but I just don't have the right stuff to keep them from becoming leggy indoors in the winter. They're such a small part of my collection that I just don't ever feel like putting in the effort to build a hot, dry spot for them to live inside during the cool months. If you're in a place where they can live outside year-round, easiest plants ever.

Same answer for like 5 or 6 years now. I have an entire room filled with plants, more strewn about all other rooms of my home, and my front screened in porch is full as well, and they are nearly all thriving. However, I cannot - no matter how many methods I try - keep a dang Purple Passion (Gynura aurantiaca) alive. I have owned 3. One even came with a surprise variegated stem! All have failed to thrive. I've tried soil, I've tried water/LECA, I've tried self-watering pots that I use for African Violets, I've tried keeping them moist, I've tried letting them dry before watering, Lots of light, indirect light, low light. All methods given ample time to show improvement or decline, and they always die. I've read the articles, followed the advice of those with gorgeous, vining, thriving Purple Passion plants, and it just doesn't like something particular about my home, I guess.

When I made my husband and myself in the game 'The Sims 4', I needed to look in a mirror the whole time to try making myself. Lol.

I propagated my Manjula and got the same results! I only cut the Manjula, variegated vines of Manjula - nothing else, and I know what I cut - and ended up with a pot that has gorgeous Manjula leaves, spade-shaped basically Snow Queen leaves (I do not own a Marble Queen that variegated that could even get mixed in), and a gorgeous solid green vine (I do not own a Jade that could have gotten mixed in either). I am 100% positive of what it is because I know what I hand cut myself. The leaves on the reverted one have an almost blue-ish tone on top and are so pretty! I have a plant hanger that's a big hoop with a pot suspended in the center. The true Manjula growth is still a nice, cute bouquet, the "Snow Queen" looking growth has stayed tiny and hidden below the Manjula leaves, and the green, reverted vine has grown so quickly and is wrapped in a circle around the hoop. It turned out to be the perfect plant for that hanger, with bits of interest everywhere you look. I love all forms those props have taken.

I love the severe duality of some plant parents. Some see a dead plant and think, "This thing should surely grow!" Some see one yellow leaf or the dried sheaths on pothos leaves and think, "Well, that thing is surely dead."

The first photo, I was like, "Now THAT'S a nipple that should be checked out!" Second photo, "Oh..."

Well, you do have 7 bowls out...looks to me like you were just asking for this. 🤣
