Look at my babies
Eight big baby tomato plants and like four jalapeño plants in a raised garden bed in the dappled sunlight. They’re getting watered. The sun is warm.

Take me to bike church
Sandwich board sign that reads ‘bike church is open’ in handwritten letters. It’s yellow. It believes in itself.

Potato meme man says, “really? Right in front of my psychological well-being?” He/they is holding hands with a tiny brain and a heart. They are also holding hands.

Looking at a lot of Hieronymus Bosch tonight, no reason
The right panel of Bosch’s The Garden of Earthly Delights in which a lot of ill shit goes down… …because it’s hell. It’s hell. It’s all hell, we’re in hell, that’s the joke. (Might be basic of me, but my favorite’s still the demons partying in the egg looking guy’s torso.)

Look at all these wee bebes
A bunch of sproutlings in a garden plot. There’s the leg of a tomato cage I had to throw in there to keep out the neighborhood cats, and also my dog when he chases the neighborhood cats.

Hello, babies 🌱
The tiniest, babiest tomato sprouts. Two of ‘em. The plant lights are giving rave.

Had what’s hopefully the last frost of the year last night and going to take advantage of the rain to start planting just the biggest #garden. Already a little late with the tomatoes, but I’ll live.
Like, 25 packets of flower and vegetable seeds on a dining room table. Carrots, beets, jalapeños and beans are prominently displayed. It’s a lot. Am I actually going to pull this off? I don’t know man, probably not, I don’t have much free time, but it’s better than doomscrolling.

Trumpet plant best plant:

* Refuses to die
* Big
* Stinks up half the street
* Loves to grow
* Can wear flowers as little elf hats
A close up on a pair of pale yellow trumpet plant flowers. They look like fairy hats alright.

Mood.

#terrypratchett
A quote from Terry Pratchett’s Nation that reads: "Are you from the government?" the captain snapped. Mr. Black looked surprised. "The government? I am afraid not. Just between us, there is little of the government left at the moment, and what there is is mostly hiding in its cellars. No, to be honest with you, the government has always found it convenient not to know much about us, and I would advise you to do the same."

Sunset was so soft tonight
Four tall palm trees stand out in front of a sunset mostly obscured by clouds. The sky is pale pink and blue-purple, real cotton candy vibes. There are power lines and a leafless maple in the background, along with a couple of Italian cypresses. It keeps the whole thing honest in a way that wouldn’t happen without them.

As I started moving onto this app more and more, I came up with a rubric for myself for reposts. With the addition of ‘is it new information’ I think it applies to media consumption too.
A screen shot of the notes app app. The text reads Poster’s rubric: Yes: Is it a resource? Is there a call to action? Is it a new and interesting perspective? Is it funny? Is it beautiful? Does it help out a friend? No: Is it (primarily) a take? Is it (merely) a drag? Is it doom porn? Does it attract a shitty audience?

Obsessed with the freebies that came with my dude’s tattoo after-care goody bag
A dumdum lollipop, an enamel pin of a dinosaur reading a book called “happy times” and two stickers, the Mona Lisa dabbing, and Jesus said “I saw that.” His tattooist is adorable.

A corgi mix dog on a green bedspread with the kind of eyeliner that infers if not requires a massive Against Me phase looks accusingly at the viewer from a spot on the bed, a place that is objectively better than, literally, anywhere. You’re right Banjo, you’re right.
