As much as I love the entire tragedy of Zephyrus causing Hyacinthus' death I find it funnier when he dies cuz of Apollo's shitty frisbee throwing skills

Plant of the Day

Tuesday 13 February 2024

A tender, evergreen perennial usually grown as an annual, Acmella oleracea (Pará cress, Brazil cress, eye ball plant, novacaine plant, salad cress, spot plant, toothache plant) has culinary and medicinal uses. The leaves are dark bronzy green and the petal-less yellow flowers are produced from mid-summer to early autumn.

Interesting article by Xavier from Archéo'Japon, overviewing the history and beliefs surrounding May 5th Kodomo no hi 子供の日 (children's day) / Tango no Sekku 端午の節句 (Japanese take on Duanwu festival) traditions.

Original article is in French but really worth a read through auto-translate if you wish to learn more about the origins of some of the Kodomo no hi rituals :)

This is one of the few times Bakugou was justifiably angry that someone was looking down on him. Because Shouto absolutely was looking down on all of them at this point

Did a reptile talk for the technicians at my clinic and brought some of the noodles along. Hopefully now everyone will be more comfortable with seeing and treating our scaley patients.

DIY [dirt cheap & probably works better than a] Starbucks Medicine Ball:

Functional teas that I had on hand were:

Celestial Tea Well Organic Ginger Mint

Bigelow Benefits Lemon & Echinacea

Honey, the real good stuff (this is from my cousin's farm)

Lemon Juice 🍋

Sugar Free Peppermint Syrup

Bonus Add on: Young Living Peppermint

Although the OG diy recipe uses the Teavana brand and a metric shitton of sugar, I am not that boujee and trying to avoid extra sugar... Honey has enough sweetness, but honey also has its own special properties. Use the google, I ain't your momma.

This tea is what I had on hand, and likely bought on sale or clearance. Also...there are a ton of different teas that are specifically blending to aid immunity or cold season. Try varieties by Yogi or Traditional Medicinals if you can find them. Experiment & find what works best for you.

I also don't have the space for a bag of fresh lemons. It is really all about balancing what you have with the effect you want.

I have found that in most of my experiments, I will feel better with any combination of mint, lemon and honey. But if I have to work, a tea that has some caffeine will help me perk up.

And yes, I have to work. I work FT and caregiver FT, I am out of PTO. My FMLA is only if my patient is sick, it doesn't cover my illnesses. But I work from home so... it could be worse. At least I am not infecting people.

Finally painted Medicine Seller’s props that I’ve had sitting around for months bahahaha. Need to make some last additions to the sword still, but turned out pretty diddly dang good. :)

i bet cuddling a homestuck grub baby feels so good in my mind their body is the same texture as one of those gel heating packs

What is with those random accounts like [insert a few random words here]-blog just popping up flooded with machine fabricated images. Are they the new spam bots, because if so they've finally found a spam bot more annoying than the p[]rn ones: silicon valley type machine learning bros...
