That's gonna leave a mark.
I get that weβre focusing on this little side quest of his, but what itβs telling us all is that he has no intention of leaving the White Houseβ¦
Yβall shouldβve never let his ass win that election.
And soβ¦the Wee Bey moment was right thereβ¦
Your old habits/mindset/comfort zones will kill your growth.
You know itβs real when the plants are telling you to cut that old shit outβ¦
I moved it so it had more sun, was more diligent about watering it properly but nothing worked. So I asked my godmother (a master herbalist) and she told me to change the soil. I told her that I did and she said:
βOld soil doesnβt have the necessary nutrients to support new growthβ
In todayβs episode of βPlants Wisdomsβ:
My prodigiosa/siempre viva/Ewe Dun Dun has been growing like crazy to the point that I had to double its pot size. I used the soil I had leftover from the last pot upgrade and went on my way.
Then it started dying. RAPIDLY.

Lmaoo. Itβs honestly one of the best sounds.
Sometimes I give my dog a few potato chips because sheβs very good at making crunchy sounds for some reason? Itβs good ASMR.
Awwwww! Sheβs adorbs!!!!
Dismayed and disappointed to hear this news

Because itβs hilarious lmao.

Finished our fair food map. All I need are those donuts and a chamoy pickle π€€
Iβm learning that I havenβt spent nearly enough time with Dread Scottβs work. I remember learning about the Flag piece, but not much more than that.
If you only find joy in the product and never the work, you gonna be in for a long hard road ahead.
All I gotta do is shiver ONCE in my home and that heat is getting turned on.
Whatever happened to βnever let somebody tell you that they donβt want you more than onceβ?!
Did the girlies lose that recipe? Did yβall not have an auntie with a 27-piece?! Did your grandma not have that bowl of walnuts, apples, and, oranges on the dining room table?!
Who raised you to be dizzy?
Just saw a fox on campusβ¦

The work IS the joy. The work IS the point. Yes.
I do things for the journey as much as I do the destination. Only thing I wanna snap and fix is my A1C.
I missed one of the festivals Iβve been meaning to go to.
Solid > pressure.
