My Bear-Paw succulent is turning into a little tree!!! :D

Three years ago it used to be a single tiny stem with leaves, and it's still insane to me how much it's grown in that time!!

My baby's growing up 🥺❤️

The bottom picture is literally me 🥺💖

Whenever I think about the Twilight movies my mind instantly goes to the scene where Bella first steps out of her father's car holding a tiny cactus. And then I remember the parody movie they made of Twlight where the main girl steps out the car with a gigantic cactus.

It would be super helpful if a few people could send me a little grocery/supply money to tide me over until my next sale (or be my next sale.)

I was able to take care of my housing situation, for now, but it left me without extra money for groceries. I also have some paper but I need to mend it and to buy some pigments (yellow lilacs and gold poppies) to get things finished. If you can I'd be extremely grateful. If not, I understand. Thanks you all for your kindness, support (financial and emotional,) and forbearance.

How many insects can you spot?

Insects are the masters of camouflage and mimicry! Insects that are are camouflaged blend in with their environments through colors, patterns, and shapes. Mimicry is an evolutionary adaptation where insects resemble another species or a natural object.

There are 27 insects in this illustration showcasing the wonders of camouflage and mimicry. The answers will be posted later!

Epidendrum secundum is a (preferably) terrestrial growing orchid with a wide distribution throughout the Neotropics, Cusco, Southeastern Peru, and Brazil

It is generally found in more montane environments where it can get a bit cooler, but has also been found growing near sea-level and by disturbed roadsides!

E. Secundum is an extremely variable species of orchid and is generally referred to as a complex, being that certain individuals vary at a rank more deserving of a separate species entirely!!

Chromosome numbers may vary dramatically for each individual in the complex, and a lilac-flowered individual from Bolivia could be found to have 2n = 28; while a lilac-flowered individual from San Antônio do Itambé in Brazil, could be found to have 2n = 52 (:

It's flowers range from shades of lilac, orange, red, white, and yellow

EXTRA FUN FACT:

Its Linnaean binomial "Epidendrum secundum", is entirely inappropriate and wrong in describing the species

The flowers are not secund, meaning not all on one side of the inflorescence. Nor is it lop-sided, or something that grows "upon a tree"

Along with that, every common name deriving from this binomial is also wrong

Hope you think this is interesting and enjoyable!! :D

Hi There! I am a fully cis man. However I am disgusted by the treatment of transfem users on this website. So, I emailed some press about just my recent issues I’ve personally noticed and support emails documented, and Guess what, you can too!

Yeah, you can do that! If you are a trans person you can say “Hey, this shit is going on.” And if you have enough documentation, they will notice and say Hey, that’s weird? Here’s some now

Media Matters: A left leaning publication

email action@mediamatters.org or call 202.756.4100.

Glaad: A LGBT advocacy organization that you can contact using this page for more suggestions

Vox, a general left leaning site they ain’t perfect but hey:

Fuck it, CNN!

If you are a trans user on this website with documented support emails with Tumblr’s behavior or can personally attest to how staff treated you? send out information let them know what is going on, and please find other websites that you get your news from to let them know! If i’m nuked? Lmao.
