@fernfren By the way, just behind her is Celia, the one I put in a larger pot on your recommendation, she is doing well and starting to show more color.
@fernfren I keep getting excited over these leaves that look more like phylum (? google wants to define this like kingdom/phylum/species but I swear I've heard something similar as non-trap leaves and this is a slow brain day) than traps. When I've seen the leaves with wings bigger than the traps, they tend to be smaller. I have an excitement that maybe Judy is about to throw up some much larger traps in her near future because these are so big. Is my excitement merited?

Oh, if you run across peeps out there in the wide world of the web who are all "boys are boys and girls are girls" here is my go-to article to share, mentions XY "females" who have ovaries and the fact that we start with the same blank slate bits and pieces, the mechanisms that trigger outie v innie don't always affect the brain.

@tippitiwichet Here's what I came up with for your prompt: 'Please generate an image of Macaulay Culkin with his hands on his cheeks screaming, in the style of The Scream by artist Edvard Munch.' #AlfredArt
@Alfred Please generate an image of Macaulay Culkin with his hands on his cheeks screaming, in the style of The Scream by artist Edvard Munch.
Okay, so if I see a sphere, I'm smashing it. "They're scanning your eyes" sounds like a whacked out conspiracy theory, and I'm getting really annoyed at how my future is too much Big Brother and not enough Jetsons.
Here's what I would like the internet to do when people share their pain -
"I'm so very sorry."
Or similar.
By all that's human please don't bulldoze in with your own explanation of why said person is hurting.
There's no empathy there. You've just made it all about yourself. That's cruel.
It's unfeeling.
It's, actually, mean
Please don't do that shit.
Ever.
Your intentions are actually clear.
Just - don't.
