Walk in the woods on a rainy sunday.
So peaceful, barely anyone is out there when it’s cold and rainy. So quiet, only the calming sounds of nature.
My hands freezing cold as I’m taking picture after picture of these lovely green leaves and stunningly beautiful trees.

You know those memes that sprung up during the pandemic that's like:
Me before the pandemic: No plants
Me during the pandemic: Plants are my life now
I would love to see in the Pokemon World the grass-type equivalent where trainers, to cope with the isolation of the pandemic, accidentally propagating an army of grass types.
A little spring comic for all you cacti growers out there. May your plants and Pokémon be healthy in the coming seasons!
Please all be safe, use gloves, or some kind of protection while handing something so pointy. Some of the spines are barbed and don’t come out as easily as you’d like them to.
EDIT: I’ve gotten questions as to why sleep powder works on cacnea, it’s because it has very few spores in its system. It’s got no ability to learn or use sleep, poison or other powder based attacks and thus has no natrual remedy in its system for such things. Pokemon who know or can learn the attack are unaffected normally, but those who can’t learn it are just as susceptible as any normal Pokémon species would be. Least this is my head cannon haha
Please consider supporting me on my PATREON if you like the content, it helps a lot and let’s me make even more of it for all you lovely folk out there!
#pokemon#grass type#house plant#plants are better than people#grass types are better than people#I really like the idea of growing an army of grass type pokemon#and realistic plant variations

when people say they hate killer I nod in complete understanding and bite my tongue to keep from asking their exact reasons because I know I’ll immediately start defending his shitty behavior
#houndshowlings#need to retrain my ‘he’s just a little guy’ instincts#he’d recognize me as easily manipulated 😞#he’d also hate that I keep trying to pick him apart and analyze his little perplexing behaviors 😞#gonna trigger bros delusions that people can plant stuff in his mind if they understand him better than he does#and then he’s gonna strap me down to a lab table and dissect me to regain that feeling of safety in control and power#cw delusion#and also..#like.#I’m of the opinion you must hate him for the correct reasons only.#none of that ‘he hurt my blorbo he never even met’ bull.#sometimes this fandom is so intent on villainizing killer they subscribe things to him he never did or said#and make him out to be more aggressive than he is

Something about AU Vander telling AU Powder she's "too smart to spend her life in a bar" vs telling AU Ekko (as far as he knows, anyway) that he thinks he'd be "running this place soon" makes the latter almost seem like an insult.
#everyone insisting Powder should be changing the world kind of fits with what the maintimeline has going on#only kinda bc if anything Jinx needs some peace and less responsibility and fewer revolutions and struggle and all that#but also if i were AU powder#who grew up dirt poor and lost both her parents and then her sister#and after a long period of grieve and strive#things look up#everyone is recovering (from poverty) and better physically and mentally#and i decided to chill out and remain close to my family in my chosen profession#and everyone kept telling me i should be more ambitious and change the world#i'd be biting people#or maybe vander meant ekko'd be running the undercity but doubt that's the intention of the line#anyway the entire episode's focus on powder kind of annoyed me#not in the sense that she's present but in the sense that every little detail is more about her than ekko#vander says ekko should be proud of himself bc powder's been raving about his z-drive and she hasn't looked so alive in a long time#as if the merit of the zdrive is that it made powder feel better and not that it's an amazing invention ekko plans to enter a competition w#and it would be fine if almost every conversation wasn't like that#but ekko never wonders about the firelights or asks claggor about his plant invention (which would be revolutionary for his undercity)#or even wonders about AU ekko's /his own AU's self apparently rather unhealthy mental state#the only conversations ekko has in this episode that aren't through the lense of powder are exposition with heimer and his hug with benzo#if anything powder's nonreaction to ekko's mood swings#worries and altered personality kind of implies that it doesn't matter to her#or the writers who exactly ekko is in this relationship or what her feelings are about him#but i'm getting ahead of myself#arcane#arcane season 2#arcane spoilers#ekko#arcane meta

Little idle thought I've been having recently but I think Cyparissus' story is very important for characterising Apollo and Apollo's love. It's so easy to think of love and loss as two ends of a spectrum, likewise, so often, death is seen as an ultimate and tragic end in love stories - something final and inescapably tragic, the only force that halts love by separating the lovers.
Cyparissus' story is... not that. Yes, the deer dies and one can conclude then that death is once more at the heart of separating two lovers, but I think Cyparissus specifically requesting to die, specifically begging Apollo to let him grieve forever even after Apollo has done his best to help Cyparissus move on from the accident and Apollo letting him is a powerful thing.
Because Apollo not only puts Cyparissus' wishes over his own, he's also able to see past his own building grief to immortalise Cyparissus in such a way that both grants him his wish and allows other people to glorify Cyparissus as well! And I think such a beautiful thing is something criminally overlooked!
It's become something of a joke that 'all Apollo's lovers turn into plants' but from a functional perspective, flowers are the most brilliant way to keep the spirit of a beloved thing alive. Flowers are like stars - as long as there are humans, humans will always contemplate the nature of flowers and as the god of poetry and song, Apollo creating opportunities for his beloved mortals to be remembered eternally even if they never seized glory in the traditional way is such an intimate and beautiful thing. Even then, Cyparissus is elevated to a similar status as Daphne with Apollo's actions - not merely a plant or flower but one that specifically symbolises him, one that is extremely fragrant and beloved by him. Just as Daphne's laurels were synonymous with glory and victory, Cyparissus' cypress became a emblematic of grief and remembrance. Even today, thousands of years later, people still view cypress trees as mourning trees and plant them in cemeteries and use the ash in incense burnt in remembrance of others. How's that for Apollo keeping his word.
#ginger rambles#I think we should talk more about how Apollo's ability to immortalise people into those coveted halls of memory is so often done out of love#and how it is the closest many of his beloved mortals will ever get to godhood but even that is leagues better than the hundreds of warriors#and kings and scholars who worked for glory their whole lives only to be forgotten and lost among the sea of time and history#And then you have Daphne and Hyacinthus and Coronis Cyparissus and Evadne even Branchus whose affair is marked with the sprawling arms#or trees and forests - who would ever say they were unloved?#Daphne is eternally interesting to me btw because like idk what anyone says it doesn't matter that Apollo was hexed to love her by Eros#Even if what Apollo felt wasn't 'true' love he did feel true regret and made real and true penitence. Apollo literally spent#the rest of his immortal days wearing Daphne's laurels and making her his symbol until she became so synonymous with gods and glory that she#became symbolic of the gods and their kings themselves! Like!! It's obscure knowledge now that gods like Zeus and Poseidon had their own#preferred plants to wear as wreath crowns because laurel-crown is so iconic as the Look of a greek god#how could you not see that as love? even if it's retroactive? Apollo worked so hard to give her the glory he robbed from her and people#still choose to focus on the chase + transformation and “oh well Apollo and Daphne wasn't a love story it was assault/a curse!!”#my brother in Christ it counted to Apollo so it counts to me too#anyway just something I've been thinking about#apollo#cyparissus#daphne#greek mythology#ginger chats about greek myths

Greater Celandine flower drawn with colored pencil and ink I made from the plant itself!!
#please be gentle lol i am not an expert. had fun though and it turned out way better than i was expecting!!!#i can go into more detail about how i made the ink if anyone's interested but HELLO HI BTW this plant IS toxic if eaten#so if you feel like making celandine ink just be careful. allegedly the sap can cause skin irritation too if you touch it#but i didn't have any issues with that. i am not all people though so. again. be careful.#mine

recent things and such~
#photo diary#image 1 - kind of interesting lacy looking clouds. Image 2 - pinky purple sunset stuff#image 3 - These REALLY cool flowers I saw in a field ? growing wild so like.. weeds I guess. but I like the color of them and how the#petals are small and layered. Image 4 & 5 - More recent hair growth progress. I still think it will never get much longer because#it's been basically the same lenght for multiple years now BUT I do feel like maybe it's getting like... just the tiniest bit longer?? Just#not as obvious of progress as the first few years. Like now if I take it out of the braids and actually hold it so it goes straight down th#very tips of the hair on one side goes down to the tip of my pointer finger. and on the other side goes a little past my thumb. and I#remember maybe last year or two years ago it was only to my knuckles or like midway down my thumb. so.. perhaps it's not reached a#maximum genetic possible length just YET as I'd thought it had maybe lol.. perhaps I could slowly gain a cenitmeter or two#here and there gjbjh.. Unfortunately incredibly doubtful it will ever be down to my knees though as I had wished. oh well.#image 6 - writing again... as always... Slowly chipping away... And looking for ways to make it go faster lol. The original premise was 8#main characters with 6 quests for each. Then it was 5 with 6 quests. Now it's 4 with 4 quests each. And even that I'm like hmm... what#about having only 3... so it could be done faster... lol.. I think mostly just because I have no gaurantee of investment. So it's like#I could spend years and years doing 500.000+ words of writing and then have about 3 people total actually play the game and nobody cares#and nothing ever comes of it. You know? So I have to balance that somehow. And rather that put out the 100% complete version#be putting out like 'here's ENOUGH of it for you to see what the concept is and what it's like. and IF theres any investment then I#can put in the effort to finish the few bits that I left in more of a preview form'' type of thing. And then it's like.. well if I'm#limiting the initial scope anyway - how much is enough to cut away? and how much would be TOO much? etc. etc. I'm pretty sure I#already have it down to a balanced minimum but some days when I'm very stressed over my ability to actually finish anything I'm like..#ehhhh..maybe I could make another main character into a side character.. as a treat lol..#image 7 - cabbage noodle beef stir fry sort of thing. As usual I kind of cook the beef too long because I'm afraid of getting sick if it's#underdone despite preferring medium rare steak lol.. Funnily because usually making something at home has the advantage of you#being able to do it Exactly The Way You Like It whereas me cooking meat is often like.. ah yes.. the worse way that I dont even like. love#to make a tough chewy anxiously overcooked protein puck for myself. :3 Images 8 - 10 -- various plants from the deck. though#some of these pictures are old and they're no longer alive lol.. Most of my plants actually do live through the winter because I#painstakingly move them inside and outside and inside and outside depending on the temperatures. But sometimes.. one cannot#help but be lost. Especially the temperature change sometimes can make them more prone to mold and stuff. and humidity is#hard to control indoors. There's always one or two that deteriorate despite my best efforts. But that's better than every single one of the#dying because they alll freeze when it gets to 20F one night and I left them outside or something lol#ANYWAY.. hrm.. still working on friend quiz thing... and sculptures.. and videos maybe?? costumes... rghhhghhrrr.. (< to do list angst)

I have a weird internal relationship with hypnok1nk, like I'm really fucking into it right? I wanna be brainwashed and conditioned so hard that I'll never have a thought again in my life yah know?the whole shebang. but at the same time, I have a massive distaste for authority and a need for independence that it's a little hard to suspend my disbelief for any kind of real hypno k1nk fantasy. like I immediately get the reaction to go off and make a weird counterpoint fantasy to it in my head. I still get off to hypno stuff but there's a little cognitive dissonance in my head ya know?
#nsft#hypnosis#hypnok1nk#k1nk#i call it my “black jack and hookers reaction”#like take human domestication guide for example#i saw the hyperadvanced plant people domesticating all of humanity and the rest of the galaxy into their pet-slaves and i went “fuck that”#i made up a whole new race of shark humans with its own unique backstory and fully fledged characters#and for what? just a sort of vauge “sticking it to the man” sort of feeling?#i feel like a child thats saying “w-well my guys are cooler stronger and better than your guys!!”#i mean its good for getting ideas dont get me wrong#those genetically modified shark people are actually really cool when i divorced them from that whole anti-hdg thing i had in my head#im going to use them for.something but idk what#i just needed to get my thoughts out idk
