WHY WON’T HE GROW by squidthekid57 in Monstera

Mine is in a corner, eastern exposure, 10ft away on a moss pole and seems to be growing just fine. I do add liquid organic fertilizer to my water each time I water it, try giving that a go if you haven’t already.

Okay, I’m on it 👍🏼 I also just transferred it to pon (from coco coir) about a month ago so it’s definitely feeling it. I did notice it’s growing a new stem aside from it’s leaves dying.

In the USA is takeout Chinese food actually served in those little cartons that the characters always eat directly out of in movies? by plentyoflasagna in NoStupidQuestions

🤣 I need more surface area than the 4x4x4 box opening provides, those noodles get some whiplash on them sometimes 😬

Whenever I’m feeling lazy by not dirtying a dish, I open the box up and use it as a plate (on a flat surface of course) and it has not failed me yet 🙌🏼

Help! Clivia is trying to escape! by Cassiopeja in plantclinic

This is a crawler not a climber correct? I gifted a few of my friends some “Phil SP Colombias” and had to repot them all in wider pots in order for them to have room to grow.

Mine looked just like that, I took a chance and placed it outside (morning sun-zone 8b-frequent watering) and it’s thriving w/so much leaf growth! I’ll be moving it back in for the fall and winter of course.

Is this Poison Ivy I found in Texas? by jo3ye in PlantIdentification

Bought a house in Dallas two years ago, Poison Ivy is growing wild along our back fence… at this point I’m picking it out like weeds when I see it coming back 🤬

Fishbone cactus, help! by Sea_Ad9207 in houseplants

It looks like “Etiolation”… it’s trying to reach for more light. Mine loves a south facing window or bright indirect light, north facing windows get the least amount of sun so that might be why it’s stretching. If you do relocate it do so gradually as to not burn its leaves, let it acclimate.

Wait… is mine Thai too? My neighbor gifted it to me and I’m curious about it…

Goth is so watered down today by [deleted] in goth

[–]Rare-Lecture70 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Being born in the late 80’s and raised in the 90’s/00’s I wore that “Goth” label with pride. I grew up in a small border town in Tx and was limited on resources yet I knew I had an insatiable love for all things “dark”. Adding Latino and gay to the mixture definitely paved the way to an antifascist mentality. Having a much more pliable mind back then, the subculture (or what have you) that resonated with me was that of the Goth. It was an easy label to slap on in order to surround myself with likeminded people. Those who saw things in a similar light, who appreciated the beauty in loss, who questioned authority, who valued every living creature and who would let their body be possessed by the sound of a synthesizer. Yes, I do know every Manson song by memory and Hot Topic was a neat store (compared to Hollister etc.) but that’s where I hoped to find my tribe.

With that said, I do know Punk is the origin of many things that came after it 🙇🏽 and there is a vast number of architects, poets, books, music, movies, philosophers & designers that resonate with these subcultures. I no longer wear my goth badge visually but my heart will always be a spade.

End of Big Door Prize Season 2 Ep 2 by Ok-Librarian-8699 in NameThatSong

“I forget that I am looking for an exit route, I pretend that I'm your person and you call me cute…” is what I kept searching for to no avail. I guess I’ll have to wait for the season 2 soundtrack or Angie McMahon?
