Pretend human and own worst enemy. What am I doing here? Where is this? Do I really need to share my opinion on anything? Why should anyone care? Ignore the creature behind the curtain!!! Do not perceive!

Ermagaw this is the best “I saw this and thought of you” present (it will also hold a pen vertically!!!)
A gray axolotl figurine which sits back on its hind legs and tail with its two front feet held as if for uppies or a bottle with its mouth open. I have stuck my finger in its mouth

Is this a meet cute or a standoff?
Another picture of the two spiders in the tub now with a clothespin for scale as I realized the brush isn’t one everyone is familiar with. One spider is about 2/3rds as long as a clothespin the other is slightly smaller. The spiders are facing in opposite directions but no one can tell if they are doing a shy meet cute or if they hate each other. They are spiders!

Hey plantsky there’s this single volunteer shoot under a tree. Leaves are vaguely 10-12” long and 4-5 inches wide

I can across this at Moms and thought of you btw. Something like “damnit Matt could probably tell me if this janky box makes this worth dealing with”

I think this is sticky tack used for floral arrangements?
A very old packaging box in old dirty white, spring green, darker green and yellow. “Waterproof Plastite (there’s a pat. # that’s hard to read) adhesive clay” around this is written “sticks to plastic - glass - pottery - metal - pliable - adhesive - sticks to object not your hands

Documenting for posterity
A round plastic container with a brown paper label inside with an ink picture of a very 70s frog who is possibly riding a bicycle too small for it, holding two slices of citrus, or displaying flowers on plates?? The label say The Liberated Frog - Taylor & NG copyright 1972. Under the frog it says “the liberated frog is four pounds of spherical glass that can be used directly in the plastic container or inside of any container to arrange fresh flowers, dried weeds, branches or grasses. You can grow bulbs in them — you can gift your fish a new ocean floor— you can play invisible marbles. Invent! The Liberated Frog imports versatility. 4 pounds. Instructions on reverse. The reverse of the prior label: “Fresh or dry arrangements can be made in or out of the clear plastic container. When growing bulbs to bloom, press the bulbs into the marbles slightly so they will be stable. Add water to 1/2” below the base of the bulbs and the roots will descend into the water. Place in a sunny window. Taylor & Ng - San Francisco Side view of the plastic container with a smattering of clear marbles inside. It features a price tag for $5 and is marked Bon Marche

I am genuinely not certain if this is the same as the others or not— I think a different kind
A can of Pacific Treats brand Ocean Caught Salmon. It is also unsafe. The label is blue and white featuring a boat and long lines with the silhouette of three fishermen at the back of the boat

They aren’t very interesting cause they are unlabeled (we do have unused labels elsewhere) just vaguely terrifying
Tinned salmon that is VERY old and unsafe. Each of the plain cans are in ziplock bags. They are embossed with the word “salmon” on top. Same as the other picture only I have picked one up to show the side of the can. All of the lids are slightly bubbled and clearly not safe for… well, existing

It’s this box btw
A red box showing a parfait glass of tapioca pudding next to an apple pie with a white oval that in black letters says “Minute Tapioca” and in smaller red letters “quick cooking” it has a small icon of a microwave with “microwave” in black cursive letters outlined in yellow and “directions” smaller in yellow letters on the black window of the microwave. The box is very likely from the 1980s

Grocery Outlet had these again which are probably my favorite snack. They do NOT taste like Gorgonzola, first they are popcorn shaped puffs not popcorn (no hulls) and they are sweet, salty, and a savory buttery cheesy flavor which is hard to describe but delicious
