But if i was collecting supplies for milking I’d get the cow last. Once you get the cow moving around is a lot more difficult.

I’ll do it!

Are you saying Louisa May Alcott lied to me?

Definitely read up on carnivorous plant care if you’re not familiar, they do have specific needs but many species can handle a bright windowsill!

It’s at ambient humidity and temperature on my windowsill. It’s quite dry here, maybe 20%?

I hear they like warm roots and appreciate a heat pad underneath, so far the black planter it’s in seems to be keeping it warm enough. If I ever notice it reducing in dewiness I might try a heating pad though.

Beautiful!

Long fiber sphagnum moss wicking water up from the substrate, mostly. I’ve heard that lava rock can be porous enough to stay moist on its own but it doesn’t work for me in my dry climate.

Update! Look what I found this morning!

Thank you! I spent an hour jamming sphagnum moss one strand at a time into the substrate like a crazy person 😅

Peat and perlite mostly, I use this mix from Amazon topped with live sphagnum (and some star moss hitchikers)

So cool!!

You can watch me feed them diluted fertilizer with an eyedropper 😅. If I ever catch a bug falling in I’ll definitely upload a video though!

They even have forked tongues!

I’d love to see some of these in their natural habitat some day!

This is a great demonstration! Lovely sarracenia. How tall are these pitchers?

I love his stupid little face.

It will never be exactly the same, but I feel lucky to have found something that captures at least part of the feeling of what Reddit used to be like. There’s the potential for it to grow into something just as cool in its own way, or maybe even better. And for now, it scratches that culture and discussion itch well enough that I don’t feel the need to wade back in to Reddit at all except for searching for specific answers to niche questions.

I never pretended to be a bride. I didn’t see many weddings as a kid, so probably not a lot of reason to latch onto that. Plus, pretending to be a princess is much better! Fancy dress, but more color options and you also get to boss people around. Also, no lame boys needed.

You were too nice to minorities. Hate harder next time so the bigots will like us.
