I interviewed Michelle Yeoh a few years ago about #StarTrekDiscovery and I mentioned offhand that I'd written an article about what seeing her use her accent on the bridge of a starship meant to me.
She stopped and said "Wait, that was YOU?"
And then proceeded to talk about how much that article had meant to HER and how it contributed to the success of the show.
I can't think about it without crying.

A slice of pie is $2.50 in Jamaica.
It's $2.85 in Barbados.
And in the Bahamas, it's $3.25.
These are the pie rates of the Caribbean.
A few years ago, the BBC compared the amount of time that men & women spoke in the films that won best picture at the #Oscars between 1991-2016. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-43197774
So much has happened in a really short time, that it's going to take a minute for me to process & write all the relevant posts to accompany the photos I took.
So, in that mood, in submitting my #SilentSunday offering... Praying mantis eggs sleeping away until June.
Not certain if these are from the Carolina mantis I found last summer in my gardens or the Chinese mantis that I've seen roaming the school gardens; collecting them to show students later in our lessons

As a small kid I was convinced that trees have feet and nothing could change my mind.
So I love it when ppl here use the term moss socks.
This one is to moss socks.
It's time for our monthly #VulvaDiversity thread! This month's topic is protrusion: some vulvas are innies, and others are outies.
As always, if you make vulva-shaming comments or creepy comments about how you like the vulvas or what you want to do to them, you'll get blocked.
"Jeśli sami będą chcieli, to oczywiście zrobimy taką lekcję, ale na ten moment rozmawialiśmy jedynie o tym, żeby nie wkurzali jednej religijnej nauczycielki i nie puszczali "Barki" na dyskotece szkolnej. Od kilku lat podczas studniówek czy szkolnych zabaw o 21:37 śpiewają "Barkę". W ten sposób wyśmiewają zapatrzenie Polaków w autorytet, w który oni od dawna nie wierzą. Może nawet nigdy nie wierzyli.

@brie Thanks. Found just two, so they won't be enough for a meal.
The United States government seized my cream cheese without a warrant. I asked to see under what authority they deemed my cream cheese a threat. They refused. "It's classified," they lied.
Why is America putting up with this unconsitutionality?
No idea what this fungus is. Haven't seen anything like this before, and I assume it's not edible.
