I got a rare treat tonight! I looked over and saw my elusive Chilobrachys sp. 'Electric Blue' out of its burrow. I snapped as many photos as I could without distrubing it too much and these are the four best.

Hmmm, my mental health *feels* mostly fine from the flawed perception I have from within it.
but
I almost spent a lot of money I don't have right now on a thing¹ I have plenty of and don't *need* any more of².
so
Is my mind chasing that delicious spike of dopamine because it's a little off or is this just normal temptation?
The situation requires monitoring. Also, I resisted so maybe I shouldn't get too much anxiety about it. But I do feel that tingling weakness. Ugh.
¹ If you guessed a #FountainPen, you guessed correctly.
² Please pardon both of the dangling prepositions.
Usefulness:
- Visconti Pininfarina CarbonGraphite: Really expensive paperweight, neat and convenient mechanism but it doesn't seal well at all.
- Stipula da Vinci: Expensive paperweight, doesn't seal well enough and requires 3 full turns to extend it
- VP: Amazing
- Dialog CC: Amazing
- Fermo: Amazing
- Curidas: Cheap paperweight, seal is iffy and mechanism sticks
- Majohn A1s: Pretty good overall but can be hit or miss; I have 5 total and 2 tend to dry out more than the others.
State of The Collection: Retractable Edition
Please pardon, as always, my truly awful photographs.

Fun fact: during early development the gonads of the human fetus remain undifferentiated; that is, all fetal genitalia are the same and are phenotypically female.
- So, if biological sex can't be changed,
- And if life starts at conception,
- Then all men are trans.
Sorry, Republican men. You made the rules.
Pretty excited to see these chonky boys putting out some spring growth.
#Ceropegia buchananii and #Brachystelma barberae are two of the prettiest #caudiciforms.

"The goal of oppressors is to limit your imagination about what is possible without them, so you might never imagine more for yourself and the world you live in. Imagine something better. Get curious about what it actually takes to make it happen. Then fight for it every day." — Ashley C. Ford

Any time I have a spider mite problem in my house, they are concentrated on this one plant. It is a vining caudiciform which is super easy to treat since I can just chop off all the vines but it is also not a plant I have strong feelings about. Which of the following should I do:
