Can't let kids know about sex until they're old enough for catholic priests and MAGA republicans to lose interest in them - will someone think of the child~~ren~~ diddlers!?

Disgusting, and a that librarian says in the article - it is only going to get worse...

These were the first cacti my wife and I grafted ourselves at a workshop last year in August. Both took, and are growing FAST - love how healthy they are!

For reference, here's a pic from last year (doggo for scale). Unbelievable how much bigger they are in less than a year! Grafted-Smol-Bois.jpg

The wildest part is that he's surprised that Mastodon peeps would react negatively to their posts being scrapped without consent or even notification and fed into an AI model. Like, are you for real dude? Have you spent more than 4 seconds on Mastodon and noticed their (our?) general attitude towards AI? Come the hell on...

When the weather allows it, I keep most of my plants outside, so the main picture is a view that shows my balcony from the far end, just to better display the extent of my wife's and mine craziness.

Here are some closeups of different racks and sections - I will properly organize it one day, I'm almost certain of it ;) You can click the embeds for full-res photos.

I also have a rack in the living room, next to the TV, with some lamps: Hot-Mess-10.jpg

That's about it for now, at least until the weekend - might notice some more cute succ-ers when I go grocery shopping or whatever, and as you can clearly see impulse control is not my forte :P

It was very hot, very crowded and yet still worth it - finally got not just one, but both known species of Aztekium without going bankrupt - I wanted one for a long while, but they tend to be stupid expensive in Japan.

Love the two cute jellybeans too - Conophytum burgeri. Hell, love all of them, that's why I bought too many yet again :)

If teachers could brainwash kids to the point of changing their sexual orientation, wouldn't all schoolchildren become well-read, polite and clean well before they turn trans or gay?

First bigger shopping trip this season, and I bought way too many again.

I'm kinda tired now, so just a quick brag before I properly id them :)

It used to look, well, black, but now I'm seeing this, which is a bit hard to read... Did the theme change recently? I'd love to goback to my white-on-black look if possible...

Today's haul from a small succulent show in Tokyo. From the left, Adromischus marianiae var. herrei, a hybrid Orthonna (cremnophila X herrei), Myrtillocactus geometrizans also known as "Boobie cactus" (no, really!) and a pwetty wittle Pseudolithos cubiformis.

Love every single of'em already!

Separately from that, it drives me mad how warped the idea of "consent" is in Windows (and in tech in general). "Later" is not the opposite of "Yes" goddammit!

Imagine sexual consent was similarly warped: Hey Becky, you wanna have sex? You can only answer "Yes, right now!" or "Maybe later," and I'll keep asking you FOREVER. So, what will it be?

Went to a succulent/cactus store today to get some repotting soil, came back with that, and these three little stowaways :)

From the left, Pseudolithos migiurtinus, a beautiful Pleiospilos nerii in bloom, and cute Gymnocalycium quehlianum var. calochlorum triplets.

Went to a gardening store to pick up some rosemary and thyme (since I still have more than enough of sage and parsley;)) and found these beauties: a white(ish) Echeveria sold under a moniker "Queen", and a beautiful plump Pleiospilos nelii. First new succulets this season - looking forward to seeing them grow!

Wow. Also, the obsession of morons with Punisher is just baffling. It's not a very complicated story at all, and yet all these idiots just completely misunderstand it and proudly wear this mark because Frank Castle is cool and kills people...

Screw the star of david, having a Punisher skull symbol anywere on or close to your damn uniform should be a fireable offense.

I don't even do NG+ in these huge games, but now I'm going to skip this one on principle, even though I do like the series. Nope, not going to allow a company to treat me this way.

There will of course be a lot of people who bend over and take it (or even defend it), but I'd rather replay an older title than encourage this shit.

Shouldn't this joke be treated like joking about bombs at an airport? At minimum adding a couple of zeroes to the bond?

The phrase "free speech platform" sounds like a giant, enormous dog whistle. Which is a damn shame, because I used to enjoy that place, and now I'm not sure I will anymore... Don't want to jump to conclusions, but is there ANY self-described "bastion of free speech on the internet" that is not a cesspool full of awful people? Just one?

I'm a white, heterosexual cis male in my 40s not living in the US, so this does not affect me in any way, shape or form directly, but it still feels just icky, unnecessary and tone-deaf. Guess I'll post photos of my succulents and my goofy dog just on Lemmy from now on, bummer...

The solution here would be to mandate full symmetry: if you require muliple steps and confirmations to UNsubscribe or cancel, you must have the exact same steps to subscribe too. I think it would fix this problem very quickly
