Easy

I would like to know if I have to actively listen to the song, or if I can go about my day while the song plays in the background. Also, am I allowed to sleep with the song still playing?

Right now, any original song by the Vampire Lestat would do! "Plastic Fiends" could be a strong candidate.

Begging your finest pardon for these dick pics

Cabbage

I know I'm late to this, but I literally just saw the full episode right now, and I can't help but wonder if John Oliver, the world famous polygamist (seriously, man, what of Wanda Jo!?), was onto something when he married a cabbage? Cabbage. Cabbage! **Cabbage!** [*in Gabriela's voice*]

(It's Saturday on my timezone, I'm sorry if this was too early for Shitposting)

In June last year, I got a cutting

13 months later, I have the first new growth! I'm so happy I could cry, because the cutting was a birthday present from a friend.

If I recall correctly, it's a *Hoya caudata* 'Sumatra'

The OG leaves remained sturdy throughout, so I knew there was life and rooting happening, but *WOW* was I close to losing hope a few times.

The powdery mess on the leaves is just dust. It looks like mealy bugs, but fear not, it's harmless. I just didn't want to bother the plant right now with dusting. I'll give it a clean when I give it a climbing support, in a few days.

H. burtoniae first blooming

This is the rescue baby I posted about a few days ago.

It turned out to not be a H. *rosita* but a H. *burtoniae*.

Isn't she pretty? 🥰

I found it hard to believe what online sources said about the smell, but I can tell it definitely smells buttery! It's strange, but at least it's not strong

Rescue baby about to bloom 🥰

I'm not entirely sure which Hoya this is, but she's close to flowering

Lestat's bad women's anatomy lesson (s3, ep6)

"Anatomically, there's the womb, and the cervix, and the uterus..."

It's a hilarious scene, 10/10 panic attack, and only made better by Lestat being wrong.

In case you don't know, the womb is the uterus. They're the same organ.

How are the dragons named?

Is it explained in the book? (Yes/no is answer enough for this)

Sheepstealer makes sense as a title the locals would have called him, but how does he acknowledge that as his name?

Some have Valyrian names, others have common tongue names, and I can't figure out the logic in it on my own.

Not how girls works, and also not how boys work

...aaand of course he's selling "a course" a.k.a. a scam

Anyone else's cat like to hold hands?

Lighthearted, because life is hard (but cats are soft).

The Boy often puts his paw on (some of) my fingers. I have interpreted this as him holding my hand.

I don't know what this means in Kittenese, but when he does this, he always seems the most chill when I keep my hand still. So, it must be some kind of gesture of affection.

Embroidery on a shirt

Finished item first, a pic of the pattern trace second, and a few shots of work in progress.

"It's okay I have the blood of Akasha in me" from *The Vampire Lestat* inspired me!

It is a bit messy, but this was my first time embroidering text. Right now, I can only see what needs improving, but I hope I can be less critical of myself eventually 😅

And I hope the glue washes off, 'cause I couldn't think of any other way to get the trace onto the shirt.

How did I do this?

I played around with a font generator, picked my favourite, and carefully traced the letters off of my phone screen onto pattern paper, then taped the paper in place.

I used Quaker stitch, split stitch, and stem stitch. My original plan was to use Quaker stitch all around, but that did not work as well as I'd hoped for, so the plan changed.

Guys, gals, and nonbinary pals!

It's happening!

This is my first time embroidering text, I have to redo "have" once I figure out how to undo embroidery stitches, overall it's not perfect but it's mine!

I hope it'll be more readable when it's done and I get all the tracing paper out of the way, but that was the only way I could think of to get the outline to stick
