hello yes

i also like birds but i'm terrible with recognising them. it is fun to see bird people get excited over some boring looking brown songbird though

hello i really like the theme of this megathread i'm something of a nerd about crassulaceae

here are a few of my favourites:

Dudleya crassifolia is a really endangered member of the crassulaceae family in baja california that's threatened by human expansion and i really hope to see it one day but realistically i'll never be able to afford a flight to mexico

Crassula umbella is a crassula that's summer deciduous (its above-ground portion dies back in summer), and forms tiny little cup-like leaves. also it's a nightmare to get seeds to germinate in my experience

Crassula deceptor is a cute little species (the only of the three mentioned that i am lucky enough to have in my collection) that is presumably shaped and coloured to resemble the rock fields it naturally grows in but in my collection the white with black speckles just kinda looks like bird shit but i still like it

i think i'm going to finally commit to doing voice training because the dysphoria over it is getting worse

i really like cormac mccarthy so i'm always going to recommend the road and blood meridian, though they're both really bleak so fair warning i guess

han kang's the vegetarian is a fantastic book about women's bodily autonomy, and if her other works are as good or better then i fully get why she won the nobel prize for literature in 2024.

dracula is dracula, and would deserve to be on the list for its influence alone, but it's also very good in itself

hello

fry? day? rice?

there were a few packs in here, can't tell any apart yet. there was astrophytum (asterias, myriostigma, coahuilense), a mix of lithops, a mix of lampranthus. they're all in the tray, and i can't really tell them apart yet other than one i'm pretty confident is a lithops. i also have some spiral aloe seeds that i'm germinating in water

check out my baby cacti

friday? rice? friday. rice.
