what is exciting to talk about today. the new google pixel? 🚫 surely not anything apple. 🚫 playstation? steam? NINTENDO?? 🚫🚫🚫 let's just talk about my peppers. i don't even know what i'm going to make with all these i just thought they'd be a cute thing to park on my porch and water sometimes:

I enjoy social media primarily as a tech enthusiast and gotta say, it's really taking the wind outta my sails that I... don't really have anything to be that enthusiastic about lately! Everything is worse. The overlords keep swearing we're in the golden age but it feels pretty dark to me!

The Little Lime Punch hydrangea I planted last year is starting to turn 👀 Eventually this should look like an upside down snow cone with a gradient of Hawaiian punch red. A bit early for it, I don't think this is supposed to happen until closer to September […] [Original post on deletethis.lol]

A closeup on a panicle hydrangea bloom, which is white and cone shaped. The lower petals are just getting a kiss of hawaiian punch red. There are many fresh blooms coming in behind it.

Goldenrod blooming, going to bed with the AC off + windows open and waking up COLD in the morning. It smells like Halloween but I know it's a lie, the lace caps are just getting started

I accidentally snapped off a hydrangea stem last year and felt bad about it, so I shoved it in the ground to see what would happen. Here's my broken branch 1 year later, giving me a single cute lil bloom! I actually don't often get pink coloring from my hydrangeas so I'm delighted

A very small macrophylla hydrangea. The single stem I'd shoved in the ground is now leaning over and aburst with bright pink blooms, while numerous new stems are shooting up from the side that will give me more blooms next year.

God this new Trakt UI update is fucking abysmal. I mainly use it to sync my Plex history to automatically attach to journal entries and forget all about it, so I wouldn't normally have even noticed. But that feature appears to be broken now along with everything else!

"but in 1973--" i do not care what happened in 1973 to a bunch of stoned boomers and their shell-shocked WW2 parents who didn't even know where their kids were. look at where their opinions got us! they can't be trusted. i'm not convinced anyone alive that year was even conscious anyway

i was just vacationing in a place that stays on standard time and it was BRIGHT LIGHT outside at 4:30AM! horrific! the only people who want to be up that early are mormons & jehovah's witnesses, and the reason for it is to be annoying

Haven't bought a physical game in ages so the Sony thing won't effect me much. But announcing they're closing the PS3+Vita stores on the same day 💀 I think consoles are dead to me. These companies will coerce you into getting hyped to rebuy ports of shit you already own for the rest of your lives

✅ Shade cloth out and ready as we're gonna be for this 114F heat index nonsense Going to have to find some permanent solution eventually. With summers getting hotter earlier every year, it's taking too much intervention to keep them from frying in a spot they used to be very happy in.
