Japanese Cultural Center in Saginaw, Mi

I recently knocked this off my bucket list for my birthday weekend and it was so beautiful 🙂 The public tea ceremony was a little lackluster, they just tried to fit way too many people in a small room, I couldn't see the demonstration at all :( Aside from that the grounds themselves are truly gorgeous. The garden was on the smaller side but still nice for what it is. Saginaw is sister cities with Tokushima

Queen of the Night?

We get in unlabeled, assorted cacti and succulents at my greenhouse and I noticed this one transition from standing upright to drooping out of its pot. I repotted it into a hanging pot and it's banging out all this new growth. I'm pretty sure it is a queen of the night, but I'd like to hear others confirm my suspicion. Thanks!

Stains on all my whites

I recently moved into a new apartment that doesn't have washer and dryers, and so to save on money instead of going to a laundromat I opted to leave my laundry with my mom to wash. All of my white shirts have these grayish stains on them. My laundry wasn't washed with anything else - I always mix whites in and have never had this. Did she use way too much detergent??? The stains smell strongly of detergent. Is there any way to save my shirts? ☹️

It was the only one in the whole case, I've seen one before on this sub but the name is escaping me!

My brothers raw chicken

I just recently got an apartment with my younger brother, this is his cat Dobby. I've only ever had cats with fut - I know that sphynx cats have specialized hygiene but I'm not sure if what it all entails. My brother has been going through a bit of a rough time lately so I want to help lighten his load any by giving Dobby a little care. It looks like his ears need cleaned, and he has a little build up around his chin. I've also heard that their claws/toes need cleaned because it's a gunk hotspot. A lot of people have said unscented baby wipes work for them - could I use wipes for his ears and toes or is that just for a general wipe down? Curly hair feet pic tax in the second slide. Thank you for any advice!

Does anyone have tips for staying cool and regulated when working in a greenhouse?

Pretty much as the title says (: I've been working in a large scale greenhouse since November of 25 and I really have been loving it there, but as we start creeping into the summer months I'm starting to get a little worried about overheating. I'm the type of person that feels weather way more intensely than others - when someone is chilly I will be sweating and when it's cold I have to wear 3 layers of clothes. Anyways - my section has a shade cloth, the roof panels open, and we have a large garage door that stays open all day for ventilation. But it still gets VERY warm for me. I've been trying to rework my days so that I'm doing intense work in the morning and more relaxed labor when the sun is directly overhead, and have been drinking LOTS of water and tea. Does anyone know any good moisture wicking, breathable, loose clothing brands? Another thing that I will be struggling with is that as a woman on the spectrum I do not wear bras. I can usually get away with it by just wearing a large t shirt (I have a small chest) but I'm worried that it will be far too hot for t shirts and I will have to resort to tank tops at some point.

New owner with a quirk question

Sorry if this is a little silly - I bought my ford fusion energi 2016 in January of this year and it has done this thing to me a handful of times. Seemingly at random, when I get in my car it will set off the alarm. Despite my key fob literally being attached to my hip and entering the car with me, it sounds the alarm and embarrasses the hell out of me! I never manually lock my car with the fob, the only time I ever use buttons on the fob is to remote start it on cold mornings. Does anybody know what might be triggering my car to do this? Thank you 😅

This tray of string of turtles has been sitting in the greenhouse for roughly a year, and has definitely seen better days. How would you approach saving these guys? Should I just chop them all where the healthy new growth starts and propagate?
