More from the Swamp

Question, what does Nolan do when Mark is actually sick (e.g. from ages 5-10 pre-powers)?

Like maybe the obvious answer would be that he would reel back the hero duties and take care of Mark but do you think Nolan gets flashbacks from the scourge virus?

Also, like, with how paranoid he is with the windows/GDA is Mark updated with his vaccinations and healthcheck (lol)

He hears in passing that chicken noodle soup is good and brings only that home for dinner. Although, Mark doesn't get sick a lot.

I'll be honest, I'm basically completely spoiled for the comic but I haven't actually read it, and I'm waiting for season 4 to come out in its entirety before watching, sooo I don't precisely know what's going on with Nolan's feelings towards the virus. (If that's been touched on yet?) But I'd say he saw Debbie get sick enough times to not panic or anything.

I cannoooot remember my original position on this 😭😭 I'm leaning towards Mark being vaccinated during childhood and then once he becomes invulnerable he sort of takes over that kind of paperwork? Like, schools need immunization records but Mark already handles a lot of parental signature stuff without ever informing Nolan, so he just has "Nolan" file as a conscientious objector lmfaoo. I don't think this is in the story, but Mark either has complete access to Nolan's email or has a fake one with Nolan's name on it 💀

Thank you for the question 🫶🩵🩵

Our fat stripey gray kitty Teekee (RIP, 2004ish-2020) always used to chase lizards and then hassle them just enough for them to drop their tails…

And then he'd eat the tails only, letting the lizard go pretty much unharmed aside from being a little freaked out. He'd sit there happily munching on the tail and totally ignore the rest of the lizard as it scuttled away to find a place to hide or a way to escape from the house.

So of course, when I saw this picture of a weird sticker someone had put on a gas pump talking about eating lizard tails...

...I thought about that goofy kitty right away. 😅

And here he is demonstrating the method of harvesting lizard tails.

Random scraggly crackhead cat doesn't get the whole "you're only supposed to eat the tail, because it grows back and then you can eat it again" part... so he attempts to eat the rest.

Teekee, of course, is not going to allow that.

Native wildflower collection 3

Continued from part 2

Columbine, which the rabbits won't let me grow

Mayapple. Every part of this plant is extremely toxic to humans, but some people still eat the fruit

Golden Alexander

Prairie rose. Looks nicer than cultivated roses tbh

Spiderwort, spiderwort, does whatever a spider... worts

Arrowwood. These grow long, straight branches, which made them very useful for making arrows.

Woodland pinkroot

Lizard tail

Michigan lily. Looks way cooler than the lilies you buy in plant stores

False sunflower

St. John's wort. Don't ask me what kind, there are so many

Germander

Thimbleweed

Prairie cinquefoil

Poppy mallow

Button bush. These develop seed balls that will fall apart in your hand

This one's called blue vervain even though it's clearly purple

Pickerel weed. People will call the coolest plants weeds

Wingstem. This stuff is taking over places where we removed invasive honeysuckle and I love it

Gaura

Yellow flowering hyssop (even though it's definitely white)

That's a wrap. I have a few more pictures, but they were all really badly focused, so I skipped them

Lizard-tail jellyfish, Colobonema sericeum

(info bellow)

Colobonema species in the video.

Bell to about 3 cm (1.2 in)

Few dozen long, fine tentacles

It can eject a tentacle that looks like a worm as a distraction. It then regrows its tentacles.

It doesn't have any colour, what you see is the light reflecting on the muscles. And that shows rainbow colours. (Iridescent)

Anthro Hsa! OFC it's the handsome lizard boi!
