Plant of the Day
Saturday 7 September 2024.
In a sunny location forming part of a summer bedding display was Trachymene coerulea (blue lace flower, lavender lace flower, Queen Anne's blue lace). This annual or biennial is grown from seed which is sown under glass in mid spring, but has slow germination.

Yeah Luigi finding out the hard way that Koopas can put eggs in humans is a cool fic trope and I love it, but where are the fics with Luigi having a one night stand with Bowser, not thinking more of it, then several months later the big guy shows up in Toadtown with an egg in tow and storms the Bros' breakfast, being FURIOUS, and that's how Luigi learns about weird Koopa reproduction ?
Bowser rambles about how Luigi apparently had ticked very specific requirements for reproductive sex that seem completely random to Luigi, meanwhile Mario is sitting here finishing his breakfast and piping with "Wait, Bowser laid an egg ?

First (you are here) - Next (pending)
No Major CWs here, but I do draw anons as one big blob for a few panels, bc I was not gonna draw fifty anons all at once, so potential squick, and there is use of motion blur for one panel
You asked to roll him over, so here you go:
---
Lavender: "Do you have the keys?"
Chamomile: "Yeah, I got them."

All right, so we've seen this post by @fuckyeahcoffeeandequality
And they're absolutely correct. Some people actually say that Lofn and other goddesses are just different names or aspects of Frigg and/or Freyja, but I am wary of these claims since there are very few sources for norse mythology and there could be many reasons why there is much less written about the goddesses than the gods. But that's just me, and I am by no means an expert in the field. Snorri's Edda does say that Lofn unites those for whom marrige is forbidden, though, and that sounds pretty gay.
A little digression, bear with me I promise I have a point. Lavender has been used as a symbol for homosexuality and queerness for quite some time, and the colour purple even longer. "The Lavender Scare", "Lavender Menace" and "lavender marrige" are all terms and names from queer history, and the colour and the flower came to be empowering for queer people.
WELL
In Icelandic, the name for lavender is 'lofnarblóm', literally translated as 'the flower of Lofn'. The plant is not native to the island and the word seems to be quite recent (the first written example of it I can find is from 1986), in all the other nordic languages they call it some sort of variation of lavendel, except for Faroese, where it appears to be called 'bath plant' (I'm so sorry, I don't speak Faroese). There are a few other words that start with lofnar-, most likely as a reference to the goddess, but most of them seem to be rather old and/or uncommon. I have no idea why 'lofnarblóm' was chosen as a translation for lavender. Knowing icelandic history, the queer connotation was probably not on purpose, but I can't help but get excited about the connection.
TL;DR: Lavender (aka the gay flower) is named after Lofn (aka the gay goddess in norse mythology) in icelandic

Hottest Stand Battle - Second Round Match 8
Stand abilities under the cut:
Soft & Wet: Soft & Wet generates star-embedded floating bubbles. The signature ability of Soft & Wet's bubbles is to temporarily steal and contain physical properties, objects and substances. If a bubble pops on contact with an object, it will take away a certain property from the object for a short amount of time. If it doesn't, it will store the property inside, allowing Soft & Wet to pop the bubble later and transfer that property to another object.
Moody Blues: It possesses the ability to imitate the form of individuals and reenact past events with precision.

Hunter after just one night of Amity and Luz constantly checking on each other's bedroom: OK so Luz's safety obviously requires us to use the bedroom she slept in last night as a decoy with an illusion of Luz and everything, and oh I guess that leaves us with just one viable bedroom...
SNORT. i was just thinking he'd grumpily throw pillows at both of them like "are both of you gonna wake me up again??? or will you stop being stupid and just share the damn bed." hunter currently exists in a position of enormous privilege called I Have Never Been Physically Attracted To Either Of You that makes him Extremely unsympathetic to amity and luz's respective bed-sharing hangups.
framing it as a luz safety thing IS hilarious though.

I'm being harassed and bullied mercilessly by the haters because I said that Valen sometimes uses one of those soaps that works for both body and hair. No not Head and Shoulders 3-in-1, I meant like one of those fancy soap bars like this one 😭 he only uses it when he's exhausted and wants to be clean but doesn't want to spend ten hours using ten different soaps in the shower 😭
