Screenshot of a Kindle showing "Chapter 21" and highlighting the phrase "Since Wolfe likes plenty of air at night, but a good warm room at breakfast, it had been necessary, long ago to install a contraption that would automatically close his window at 6:00am"

Do you live in the Bay? So you want ... 🕷️🌱? I have ... a lot. Please take one.
Photo of several spider plants that says "do you want a spider plant" followed by a incomprehensible rant in small illegible text. The rant says "no seriously I have more than twenty spider plants not pictured here and more spiderettes growing and I feel bad killing them because they are trying so hard so plz take them before I have to commit plant murder or try to give them away on Craigslist or whatever"
