Someone Gifted My Mom A Small Pot With Three Succulents. She Absolutely Loved It, And Brought It Home
Someone gifted my mom a small pot with three succulents. She absolutely loved it, and brought it home to put it by the window.
They were very pretty, but there was a particular one that everyone in the house liked and no one had seen before.
Sadly, after a couple of months, said specific succulent started losing the leaves it had and even lost a branch. All due to an excessive watering since my mom, with her best effort and love, has been watering every two days.
So I took care of the pot, changed the soil, put it where it could get direct sun, etc. But despite my best efforts, the weird succulent we all loved was decaying dramatically.
I didn't know its name and after asking people around without an answer, I managed to identify it with google lens. So I went full investigation mode to save the weird and beautiful succulent.
Turns out it is native to south Africa and it's very uncommon. Needs sand instead of soil, many ours of direct sunlight yada yada
I'm reaching the last part of the article where, AND ONLY AT THE END, warns it a highly TOXIC.
Not only when consuming it, but also by touching it!!
I go to my dad with the news as "This is not advised for homes with small children and pets for it highly toxic and must be manipulated with gloves! Can you imagine, I even touched it already!"
My dad then reveals that he also touched it. So we went to tell my mom, who had ALSO TOUCHED IT ALREADY.
I'm really sorry for Mr. Senecio but i won't make any more efforts to save it

that's exactly what i meant!
a trope that i think is really fun is in a fantasy world where there is magic, those who don't believe in the magic can trump it. especially when it's not like a group of people, when it's just like a couple characters that you meet throughout.
"You're a vampire?! Why can I see you in the mirror then?!" "You idiot, mirrors haven't been using silver since the 1950s!!"
just as a general reminder

u go up to a girl who u bullied/helped to bully for years and think she’s rejecting you as a friend when really you just weren’t the person she wanted to see at that exact moment but in general she thinks ur alright and u ask her is there anything i can do to change ur mind about hating me forever and ever…? and she asks you ‘can you realign the stars?’ and you think wow. what a sick metaphor for asking me if i could turn back time and not have played a hand in her childhood trauma. i will say no and leave in tears. but no. marinette’s ACTUALLY asking if sabrina knows how to reschedule a star’s arrival at Jupiter because of its astrological significance and how that could positively affect her romantic relationship with adrien I Love This Show
