Absolutely amazing. It continues to blow my mind how there’s so much complexity and beauty all around us that we can’t even begin to appreciate without technological assistance.

So lovely. This would mark a beautiful painting.

This was really well said. I second it.

Our society can be, at times, so unjust and irrational. Two of my biggest mental health nemesis’s in life. And two of the things my NT friends and family don’t understand why I get so fixated on. I feel like I’m screaming into a dark void when they don’t understand my concern— because, the way I see it, if everyone cared about injustice even half as much as I do/did, the world would be an incredibly kind, safe, beautiful place to be.

Before I started therapy and meds I was literally driving myself batshit insane feeling completely out of control all the time. I had to learn to redirect my energy on what I actually could control: my mental self-care, and being emotionally healthy enough to help those in my social onion layer who need it.

I’m sorry we have to feel this way. And I truly hope anyone who can relate to this finds some solace and new wisdoms about it. Much love.

Those look so fabulous. We’ve had a particularly cold, wet spring thus far so mine are all stunted. I enjoy living vicariously through others’ garden hauls. Thank you for sharing.

Ah yes, the struggle is real. Millipedes are my main strawberry nemesis here. It’s always so disheartening when a strawberry looks absolutely perfect… and then you pick it and come to find a hole on the underside where the millepedes have hollowed the whole damn thing out. Haha, the little monsters.
