Thinking about how little girls will go to an event and immediately locate another little girl to become best friends with for the rest of the day. Remembering best friendships that lasted only for the afternoon at the pool, or the cookout, or the week-long camping trip, or the wedding reception. They were short and sweet, but even decades later I can still remember them 💗
Jupiter's Moon IO: Jupiter's fifth moon, Io, is the most volcanically active body in the solar system. Io's surface temperature averages about minus 202 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 130 Celsius), resulting in the formation of sulfur dioxide snowfields. But Io's volcanoes can reach 3,000 F (1,649 C). Io is often referred to as a celestial body of fire and ice. (source)
“Please don’t expect me to always be good and kind and loving. There are times when I will be cold and thoughtless and hard to understand.”
— Sylvia Plath (via goodreadss)
straight people will never understand how therapeutic it is to hear the words “her girlfriend” or “his boyfriend” or how I ascend to heaven when I hear “her wife” and “his husband”
Female customer: “I don’t have a rewards card but my partner might.”
Me, ears perking up: “Great! Can I have their name?”
Customer: “It’s Stephanie ____”
Me: stupidly wide smile and faint twinkle in eyes because holy crap I’m not alone
These two women came up to my register with their twins and they called each other honey and their kids called them both Mom and my soul ascended to the heavens i was so happy
When I worked as a contractor I knocked on a heavily pregnant woman’s door and she said she’d “have to talk to the missus” in a heeeeavy outback accent and I actually forgot how to speak for a second and had to explain that I’m not homophobic I’m just super gay and hearing her say that launched my souls directly to nirvana
My soul when I see Queer people visibly and openly living their best Queer lives:

Last Spring I delved into gardening more than I ever had before. I planted all kinds of flowers, trees, herbs, shrubs, and more! It was fantastical to dig in the dirt and care for these plants, watching them bloom and grow and stretch toward the sun.
Then winter came and one by one many of my plants began to whiter or stop giving off blooms. This is obviously upsetting but also a reminder to contemplate the nature of life and death and everything in-between.
However, there is a simple way to help bring that joy of plants and growing into the home through houseplants! Below I have provided some house plants that I personally care for as well as both mundane and magical properties of the plant.
Devil’s Ivy is one of the easiest plants to care for in the home.
(Disclaimer: This is by no means a comprehensive guide to each of these plants. Doing research on any plant before attempting to grow it yourself is highly advised. The magical properties of these plants are my own interpretations and you may find different or alternative uses for them.)
2019 we filling our pockets, bras and anything else with rose quartz, shoving sprigs of rosemary behind our ears and wholeheartedly loving ourselves

because i’m a huge tea nerd, i made a tea brewing master list. enjoy.
BLACK TEA [ more oxidized than other types, which is what makes black tea taste stronger ]
GREEN TEA [ often dubbed the ‘healthiest tea’ when really there is no clinical evidence of health benefits (doesn’t mean there aren’t any) ]
OOLONG TEA [ most similar to black tea; requires similar manual production and it comes from the same plant - camellia sinensis ]
YELLOW TEA [ the rarest variety due to complex manual production + low demand ]
WHITE TEA [ a delicate lad; white tea is not rolled or oxidized, which gives it a ‘lighter’ taste ]
HERBAL TEA [ often not considered a real tea because it doesn’t come from an actual ‘tea plant’ ]
BREWING TIPS
as someone who makes an unnecessary amount of tea I absolutely love this
