Omg I just got 4 sibs who were *very* excited about the eyeballs! 🥹
Plastic ghost bucket with dairy free candy I can eat but kids don't want: unreal coconut bars and peanut butter cups, plus fruit by the foot. Also a white bowl with seven or so individually wrapped gummy eyeballs (out of forty to start).

Still Life with Dooting Skull (2021) - Bourbon vanilla with wildflower honey, licorice root, coconut milk, and nutmeg.
#BPAL #SOTD

ask not for whom the skull doots! it doots for thee!
(and me, it also doots for me.)
It's my greedy goblin hand again holding a 5ml perfume vial from Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab! This one has a vanitas style painting on the label of a skull that looks like it has a little flute or recorder instrument sticking out of the area where its mouth would be. There are also some books.

Oof. Perfumer starts out talking about how petrochemicals and pfas are dangerous, but then takes a hard right turn into maha drivel:
It is irresponsible not to consider broad-spectrum chemical exposure through personal care, beauty, and household products as contributing factors in a world of declining wellbeing and fertility rates, rising chronic illness, obesity, allergic sensitivities, autism, and cancer.

I bet both of these guys were so mad
Joseph-Ignace Guillotin (French: [ʒozɛf iɲas ɡijɔtɛ̃]) (28 May 1738 – 26 March 1814) was a French physician, politician, and freemason who proposed on 10 October 1789 the use of a device to carry out executions in France, as a less painful method of execution than existing methods. Although he did not invent the guillotine and opposed the death penalty, his name became an eponym for it. The actual inventor of the prototype was a French physician, Antoine Louis.

Then I lifted up the branches and it kept going! I staged what I found in this planter so it wouldn't blow away. Is this normal for an urban Missouri yard or should I be asking around about lost pets?
At least three feet of shedded snake skin in a yellow planter. The belly scales are about one and a half inches wide.

I am used to finding trash in the yard because I have an alley next to my house, but as I got closer to this I was like "hmm that is from a good size snake actually" 😅

Last week I was inspired to roast potatoes and onions, then monday I got tomatoes from a friend's garden, so today I threw those in the same configuration plus a bit of garlic and lemon peel. Not bad 🍅

The email that went was an eyebrow raiser. It says "Given the volatile environment we currently exist in, politically and economically, as well as long-standing misalignment between staff and board..." but then doesn't elaborate on the staff misalignment at all.
After much deliberation, the Apiary Board (Diana, Erin, and Brooke), and I, the Interim Executive Director, have made the important decision to place Apiary’s operations and most programming on pause for the next four months. This decision was not made lightly and has been in process for some time. Given the volatile environment we currently exist in, politically and economically, as well as long-standing misalignment between staff and board, the time has come to assess our usefulness to the movement and reimagine its future.

This configuration has been extremely useful for me, but it depends on how many and what kind of news outlets you follow. I do also use the individual post setting of "hide post/reply for me" a lot

Labor Day tradition: meander down mural mile Monday morning to check out the latest feats of spray paint artistry from Paint Louis
Stylized lettering in gold on a black background around a figure of an indigenous person rendered in multicolor geometric shapes. The Bride from Kill Bill in white, yellow, and red on a black background. An angel engaged in battle midair with a devil, surrounded by moody clouds. Abstract greyscale piece featuring figures on a vehicle balanced on its back wheel. The word "color" appears vertically down the right side, also in greyscale.

I have seen the sphinx moths that look like hummingbirds, but not the ones that look like bumblebees! So cool!
