I'm thinking of Symphony of the Sixth Blast Furnace by Evgeny Sedukhin again...

Instead of sleeping, I'm on the patio in the middle of the night with a flashlight in my hand, trying to find what's eating my fucking plants. Gardening is a war day and night against anything that crawls and tries to destroy the fruit of your many months of labor. We're in the trenches.

I think Marshall Common Side Effects and Ursula Scavengers Reign would be biology besties

Goodness, strawberries grown in your own garden taste so sweet and smell so unbelievably fragrant.

What a joy to be alive 🍓

Today's reason for hope is that MY MOM IS OFFICIALLY IN COMPLETE CANCER REMISSION

My mom was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor in 2024. It's been... a harrowing fucking year. But she just had a big 7/8-months-post-surgical MRI, and it came back COMPLETELY CLEAR.

Her surgery was super successful, so we had thought/really, really hoped this would be the case. But it's an absolutely massive relief to see it confirmed.

No brain tumor!!!!! Or, as my mom entertainingly put it, "ALL GOOD!!!No mother-fucker!"

what annoys me about explaining evolution to people who don’t think it’s real is that everyone’s idea of how it works seems to be from this

Whereas the reality is far more like

June 2025: More First Week Of June

The Red Menace in one of his favorite new murder holes behind the volunteer tomatoes:

Thursday's harvest. It might seem meager but I can't remember us every having a summer squash produce a fruit this size this early in the growing season:
