*Floating in My Corner of the Internet*

Hey, welcome to my blog! I'm glad you decided to drop by! Interests: Wings of Fire, My Hero Academia, The Ancient Magus' Bride, The Magnus Archives, Epic: the Musical, and other cool stuff. I'm also a huge fan of cats! I don't use this account much for serious art though, just doodles and memes, stuff like that. I post gift art here though, and things that the people who follow my DeviantArt probably wouldn't be interested it. However, I do plan on posting writing here! ... Eventually... (^▽^;) What to call me: Stargazer; Star; Starry Pronouns: They/Them

Ya’ll might wanna grow some hyperaccumulators (such as sunflowers, oyster mushrooms, mustard greens, vetiver, etc) around your house and/or in your garden for a few years before you plant leafy vegetables so you don’t end up consuming heavy metals.

[terminal-burrowing-deactivated2]

If you’re uncertain, most state universities have soil testing labs that offer cheap, easily understood soil tests that can tell you for sure whether you’ve got lead, arsenic, etc. in your soils.

searching for “university extension soil test [your state]” will probably turn up helpful info!

[gallusrostromegalus]

This is a good thing to note, (also sunflowers are very pretty and easy to grow when you’re first learnign how to garden) but also searching “(nearest university) Extension” and “(your county) Extension” is GREAT because there’s ALL KINDS of cool services out there if you want to get into growing your own food or helping the local enviornment or installing solar panels on your house or buying livestock or- There’s a lot, it’s AWESOME, it’s usually stunningly low-cost and it’s veyr, very solarpunk so I encourage all of you to take a gander at the programs offered.

[zinjanthropusboisei]

The Cooperative Extension System is run in each state by the state’s land grant university/ies (which might not be the ones you think, in NY it’s Cornell rather than any of the SUNYs): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooperative_State_Research,_Education,_and_Extension_Service#Cooperative_Extension_System It’s also where all 4H programs are based!

[plantyhamchuk]

Some also offer classes! They’re taxpayer funded, so that means the wealthy ones can offer tons of resources. If you can’t find much going on in your state, nearby states may also have excellent info that can apply to your area. Some of the famous heavyweights are Cornell / New York and UC Davis / California, tons of research, plant breeding programs, and all around useful info coming outta those places.

[songofsaraneth]

As a botanist I’m contractually obligated to add this any time I see posts about phytoremediation–if you do this you CANNOT let the sunflowers/msuhrooms/etc decompose back into your garden. You cannot add them to your compost pile. That just puts the heavy metals right back into your soil!!!! You need to bag them up and dispose of them elsewhere–traditional landfill waste is probably going to be easiest for most people.

These plants ACCUMULATE metals. They do NOT break them down. You’re pulling them up from the ground and storing them in the plant tissue, so, don’t consume or compost that tissue afterwards.

hello twelfth night fans. is thi̇s anything

[susiephone]

ever since someone pointed out to me that shakespeare wrote "twelfth night" after one of his twin children died, it's hit different.

like we know precious little about shakespeare's life and even less about what was on his mind when he wrote each play, but....he wrote a story where the twins torn apart by fate reunite, where the brother thought to be dead and gone forever actually miraculously survived, where the emotional climax of the story isn't the various love triangles getting sorted out, but the twins finding each other again and getting to live happily ever after.

like. fuck.

issue: the kittens are still trying to learn words. gus knows his name and daisy knows hers, but they don’t seem to quite grasp that when I say “babies!” im referring to both of them.

hypothesis: “babies” is too similar to “daisy” and they’re getting confused

test: start saying “gamers” instead

Outcome: they’re understanding it and it’s hysterically funny

[kazieka]

me, calling down the hall from stirring a can of cat food: LET’S GO, GAMERS

the kittens:

[stu-pidity-deactivated20220206]

Yes please show us the gamers

[kazieka]

here’s the gamers! Daisy is on the left and August is on the right! i spent 45 minutes trying to get this shot

Someone: Can you talk about characters from your favorite media? Me: Well, to quote Rick Riordan:

Like I don't think you guys comprehend what happened in Poland just now but everyone needs to be talking about it.

A random influencer decided he'll listen to an anti cancer song on loop. People liked it enough times he ended up listening for 9 days.

He raised 90 million in these 9 days, and then 160 million more over the last 10 hours, for a total of 250 million.

Hundreds and thousands of people signed up to donate marrow.

Hundreds of celebrities shaved their heads in solidarity.

The Foundation receiving this money had to create a special commission to figure out how to distribute the money.

The national TV stations got highjacked to stream this for hours because it was better news than anything happening in the world.

Because we broke and DOUBLED the world record for this kind of thing.

They raised about as much as the biggest running charity event in Poland did in a whole year with three decades of tradition and a goddamn army of people.

And they did it on a goddamn amateur set up in a shabby room sitting on folding chairs.

[kimmycup]

Little update: people keep donating despite the stream being over. We're at 280 million in the fight against cancer.

Łatwogang refuses to collab with companies that only reached out to him now because of popularity or give interviews. He said any medals people wanna give them should go to the doctors and nurses and the cancer patients.

Someone offered to renovate that shabby little flat for him as a thank you. He refused.

Someone counted up how many people appeared in that room during the whole thing - it was 319 total.

[belladonna-rx]

Love to hear it. Love news articles too.

Just love this headline phrasing.

Streamer crushes MrBeast charity record with $70 million raised for kids with cancer - Dexerto

Polish streamer Łatwogang’s charity livestream has raised over 203 million złoty for children with cancer, breaking the charity stream recor

[dancinbutterfly]

Way to go Łatwogang! You and the rest of Poland are saving lives.

Bonus gift of: eat shit Mr Beast.

Knowing that Eridians have much longer lifespans, and also he can't be at every school on the planet at once, Ryland Grace decides to record a bunch of entertaining science lessons with Rocky's help.

Hundreds of years later, Eridian kids still get excited when the substitute teacher rolls in the 3D shape projector, because they know they're in for an episode of Friend Grace the Science Ace.
