Adding to my CV: valuable contributions to numerous projects on github

For once, I’m above average! I don’t know if that’s a good thing, though :3c

Some of my sunflowers are getting to the point where I can harvest their seeds. That’s super exciting because it’s my first time collecting seeds. This’ll sound very dumb, but until earlier this year, I thought sunflower seeds were a bit like apples and grew out of the little things that bees collect pollen from, but then I saw that the seeds grew underneath the pollen. I always thought I had seedless sunflowers. I’ll leave plenty of seeds for the birds, but growing sunflowers from seeds that I harvested myself sounds so cool, and I’m really looking forward to spring now.

But do crossposts count as reposts? 🤔

It’s amazing how plants can recover from what looks like a major injury. Last year, I had a sunflower seedling in a small cup, and something bit off its head. Might’ve been a bug, or a bird, we’ll never know, but all that was left was a thin stem, just like in your photo. I kept watering it, and after a while, it started growing new leaves, then a second head, and although it was much smaller than the other sunflowers, it still bloomed.

The helmet with ears is adorable :3

Animals and plants that glow like that are so cool! We live in such a magical world, and photos like this remind me that the magic starts right at our doorsteps.

My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined :c

I don’t know if this is a real thing or a 3D model or a drawing, but if this actually exists, I don’t care what it does, I need it OwO

That sounds lovely! Thank you for your insight, it’s already taught me something new (I didn’t know that woodchips prevent compaction, or that it was an issue in the first place). And if your garden looks this pretty in the winter, it must be absolutely stunning in the summer <3

Oh, I’m SO jealous because having a forest garden is my dream. Do you have to put in a lot of work to keep it in shape?

I found the same quote in an old reddit thread, where someone provides Memorabilia, a book written by a guy called Xenophon of Athens, who was a student of Socrates, as a possible sauce:

3.12.8 “Besides, it is a disgrace to grow old through sheer carelessness before seeing what manner of man you may become by developing your bodily strength and beauty to their highest limit. But you cannot see that, if you are careless; for it will not come of its own accord."

Archive link to the relevant chapter because the original University of Chicago link is dead.

According to this Wikipedia article, the book is a collection of Socratic dialogues, so it’s not a collection of quotes. Book 3, where this particular quote comes from, is about Socrates giving advice to his family and friends, so I guess Xenophon claims that it is an authentic quote, but I don’t know if there’s a way to verify that.

boop boop beep :3

eating garlic bread, heck yeah

Wow, stunning colours!

Lavender gang :D

The description at the end felt a bit off, but I guess that’s because the result is just what I have the most overlap with.

This banknote tastes funny. I can’t tell what it is, but it’s not actual sea salt…

Yeah, that’s weird… it’s, yeah, it’s… it’s weird, yeah. Uh huh, weird, definitely wouldn’t ever want to do… such weird… stuff. Hey, can I have that catalogue when you’re done with it?
