Corpse flower cousin update! 👇
One of our three Amorphophallus konjac plants, currently on display in the Conservatory, is nearing the end of its bloom cycle. Alvin opened up over the weekend, and is still smelling faintly.
NO NO NO YOU DON’T

X post: Apparently, The New Yorker ran a story with an illustration of Wunmi Mosaku that was obviously not intended to represent her well, so I redid it real quick in a similar style. Took 15 minutes & a love of Black women ❤️
i feel like i’ve been trying to warn about anti-blackness & racism at The New Yorker for years now but sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words…
That's not equality?
Fuck this guy. I'm not expecting a perfect candidate, but Newsom's not even in the realm of "good."
a beautiful small Hijet truck on a picturesque street
thinking about small trucks again
this and a dog would fix me
Also if you exclude our trans sisters from international women’s day you suck and I hate you
Hahaha Outlander, actually.
I’m not trying to find common ground w/ people who can’t even agree that murdering children and kidnapping people to put them into concentration camps is wrong.
I have no political overlap w/ people who believe this grotesque violence we see everyday is justifiable is some way.
That’s just sick
The thing I keep thinking about is that the majority of the US can’t even agree killing innocent people is wrong.
Political ideology is simply irrelevant in the face of that kind of normalized barbarism.
It is grotesque that in the 21st century, we still can’t respect each other’s basic humanity.
Saying this the morning after it was literally raining oil in Tehran is such a disgusting blend of cowardice and heartlessness.
This should be enough for a proper opposition party to remove him from leadership rather than just another moment that gets ignored.
I accidentally stayed up until daylight savings and now I’m getting even less sleep. Big mistake. Big. Huge.
This morning in Tehran. It's presently raining oil, per CNN
They are repeating the Iraq war playlist. Destroy civilization infrastructure, destroy health, and then act surprised when chaos ensues, and call us savages 🤬
They hit a water desalination plant in the hottest part of the world. This will be catastrophic this summer.
MANDATORY TIMELINE CLEANSE
If we survive this, I really hope parents take a long look at how they are teaching empathy to their children. It's so obvious that that is the missing ingredient in huge chunks of the population, amplified by social media algorithms and cultural rewards for reactions rather than thoughtfulness.
“The actor—whose grandmother, mother, and sister were ballerinas—is currently nominated for his performance in Marty Supreme.”
In an Instagram post, New York City Ballet principal dancer Sara Mearns wrote, in part, “Show your mother the respect she deserves.”
LOL, they just put a shield over the William's car that says 'Claude' - and I think we may have learned what is wrong with the car.

#F1 qualifying is going to be a mess (complimentary).
I’ve never felt more seen.
Thank you, Erin. This little dot has been so annoying.
three replies from "Endless Screaming" to me and Joshua Erlich. the posts are "AAAAAHHHH"s of varying lengths
finally, a streamlined social media experience
I'm unsure how people really think people were downplaying a virus that can kill you, make you go blind, wipe out your immune system for years, and oh yeah come back and kill you a decade after you thought you'd shaken it.
If anyone is up for boosting, Bandcamp is holding a fundraiser for the Trans Continental Pipeline to help trans people escape from Kansas!
Once the review of an entry is complete and any manual duty calculations completed (see paragraph 18 above), it takes an IS or ES approximately 5 minutes to process an individual refund, including amending, liquidating and certifying the refund for each entry. The refund processing for the 53,173,939 entries with IEEPA duties will require 4,431,161 man hours for CBP to complete.
At 5 minutes per refund, it will take 506 years of staff time to resolve this.
I just sent my state senator a message to support this. We already have 133 in NYS. 56 in NYC alone.
Haitian asylum seeker Emmanuel Damas died in ICE detention this week because of medical neglect. He complained of a toothache but never received proper medical attention, leading him to become septic. (1/2)
An advance look at the cover for next week’s issue: “War-a-Lago,” by Barry Blitt. #NewYorkerCovers
Claude is more worried about ending up in the Hague than the people running it
Oddly, I think the folk memory of polio being Bad has lived longer, despite measles killing more kids at that time.
One is pictured as iron lungs and leg braces, the other as a week of a rash. We need to start talking about vaxes preventing blindness, paralysis, brain damage, death.
I did not take a buddy when I got up in the middle of the night and definitely walked to the bathroom alone. Yikes.
