Time for another terrarium refresh. Plus a quick trip outside for the coleus so that the bees can enjoy the flower spikes. Not overnight though, they are slug crack!

Bought this peony in the left pic for the gorgeous yellow flowers in May. But the foliage is gorgeous! The other pic is of my Acer, which is spectacular this time of year. Plus 2 podgy sosigs

Musing on being high-masking late diagnosis ADHD and autistic. My family, believe me to be so independent that they "forget" me ...in terms of events, even bereavements I hear about later after my sibling. What's this about? Massive rejection sensitivity? Or the image my mask created?

Inequality is causing all the grief of the world. People will flip from middle right Dems to fascists continually because they are broke. Unfortunately both sides fuel the rich who are eating us alive. Tax wealth not work

Remember these toys? I can only imagine something similar is going on with one of my nostrils at night. Horizontal are we? Ok complete shutdown. Stand up to blow said nostril - nothing there! Works fine.

Weekends means building the tiny Library. Learning as I go. Always make the fiddly books for each shelf first, or risk losing the will to continue!

Cap America BNW review. First quarter I loved. Anthony Mackie is awesome as Cap. I could happily watch Harry Ford just make toast. The baddy is crap, thought he just had nice sculpted curly hair...no it's brain bumps, but so underwhelming. fitty red hulk smash 10/10 but overall 6.5.

I am not even In the US and I am stressed TF out. My ADHD fuelled dreams had "I never thought, the leopards would eat my face" on repeat for 7 hours solid. That salute, REPEATED? They are not even hiding anymore.

I don't know why this brings such joy, because they are the enemy in the garden. But I have a tiny snail friend in my terrarium! Obviously enjoying the algae on the lid this morning #terrarium #snailfriend
