DAY 12: SPICY - Common sense said that I should draw an actual spice plant for this prompt, but then I found this. There are several “spiced” iris varieties, but this one is “Spiced Tiger”, and it was love at first sight. I wish I could find one in the UK!

It also gave me a wonderful excuse to draw a little tiger character. I wanted to make them a little spicy too, and this ended up being one of my absolute favourites. I need someone to make me a tiger hoody and mask.

i was at a restaurant last week, watching the political ads on the TV between sports games. one from the trump campaign ended with the slogan “kamala is for they/them. trump is for you”. it was vilely clever - and it made a clear statement about who was the enemy, the other, the unwelcome, in trump’s great america. i thought about how the right had gone all-in on transphobia this election season, and i hoped it was a gamble that would cost them.

this week has been a gut punch, and i’ve been feeling a lot of things - rage, fear, grief, and subspecies of those emotions. what i kept coming back to, though, as i digested these feelings, were the people i love. my queer friends. the trans kids in my community. the people who, already, are losing their rights to bodily autonomy, state-by-state. the way that i’ve had to start looking at our country as a fucked up patchwork of safe and not-safe. the way that access to medical care, increasingly, changes depending on which side of an arbitrary border you’re on. i’m also realizing the ignorance and privilege it is to only think of our country this way, now. america has always been about picking and choosing who deserves rights, who we consider a person. but, despite the deep-seated flaws of this country, i live in it. so do so many people i love. and that’s what I keep coming back to: the people i love, and my desire to protect them. at the very center of all the rage and hurt and anxiety and sorrow i’m feeling, is a deep, perilous love. i am holding onto that love. i hope you are, too.

Holy crap am I tired I just spent 2 hours digging up the iris's at my step mom's and boy we only made a dent

We're making progress though but it's going to be a process for sure. I don't even know what we're going to do with all of em'

She said she didn't know if she could keep any because the weeds are just out of hand in there and me and her mother can only take so many

Look at these giant roots some of them have

The originals were planted over 10 years ago and they've been spreading ever since, here's one of the itty bitty ones we got

There are some even smaller than this one it's insane over here

Anyways wish me and my step mom luck this is going to be a multi weekend process

And thanks to the person in the gardening discord who sent me this link explaining what to do about em

can we turn this into a list of user-recommended perfumes that don’t smell like chemicals? every time I dare to stop at a department store perfume counter or perfume shop or Bath and Body Works, my nose is filled with disappointment and regret.

I’ll start with this shocking find I nabbed at Old Navy of all places: kindred goods Sea Salt & Fig, bought it as a cheap christmas present for my mom years ago. she didn’t really like it so I took it, still use it to this day and still can’t believe something so inexpensive doesn’t smell harsh to me. (I have the body mist version instead of eau de parfum, don’t know if that makes a difference.)

not a dream

if you ever want a unique perfume that's not too pricey, I bought Gianfranco Ferre's Camicia 113 over two years ago (it was also on sale so it was really such a good deal altogether) and I still have it and use it for special occasions

it has such a good smell, my mom used to not like it because she said it was unusual, but after some time that she kept smelling it on me because I was wearing it, she's became in love with it and uses it for special occasions as well

if you ever find it on sale like I did, that's even better, there's nothing I like more than finding a good deal

what's amazing about this perfume is that a little goes a long way and it's one that lasts, one or two pumps are more than enough for you to smell like magnolia for the whole day, and I can still feel whiffs of it on me even a day after
