losing access to my brain for a few minutes cause someone said "One flipper roll"
aside from the aforementioned affection towards snakes, i also hold a great deal of fondness in my heart for hollow knight (i am extremely normal™ about collector), rain world (miros birds are the best creature i will not be accepting criticism on this), command and conquer red alert 2 (kirov reporting), in stars and time (one must imagine sisyphus stuck in a time loop), and about a million other things.
i played through slay the princess and spent the whole game pretty much completely ignoring her in favor of dicking around with the narrator (there is no good ending because the narrator always dies) and the voices (contrarian is the best one), which probably says a lot about me (i am aromantic asexual (this will not stop me from rebugging horny™ shit that i am tangentially interested in)).
fuck it i'm a girl now (still he/they tho)
i also like to draw and make games & shit.

Speaking on the internet is to mold whatever version of English you speak into a pseudo US English so that Americans can remotely understand what you're saying as they're a very very prominent portion of people here. Sometimes I don't care, sometimes it's annoying.
It's particularly annoying when you're like, speaking how you normally would, and then an American would pop in being it "bo al wa er" and "chewsday innit".
I think one of my favorite kinds of architecture is repurposed architecture. A cool building is indeed, cool. Love it. And if that cool building were to be demolished, well that is a shame. But if someone took bits of that demolished building, and repurposed them into another building? REAL SHIT. Gettin to play scavenger hunt with bits of one great structure now scattered? fuck yeah.
Good news, the plants, slugs and I have finally been blessed with rain, which has also dropped the temperatures by a lot. It made me gain some strength, and I had more energy for taking photos also. The rain even stopped for long enough for me to take a decent walk.

This is a jostaberry bush. These plants are hybrids of 3 original species: blackcurrant, coastal black gooseberry and European gooseberry:

This is St John's worth, Hypericum perforatum. The binomial name is due to the leaves having lots of little translucent glands in them, which makes them appear perforated against the light:

This is probably a Meadow brown butterfly:

This photogenic Roman snail had some damage to their shell that has now healed. Snails can repair cracks in their shells to an extent under the right circumstances:

This is a pretty little moth, Harpella forficella, which I don't think I had noticed around before:



This is a leopard slug. They come in many different colour variations. They eat dead plants and fungi, and they also hunt other slugs. Their mating ritual is very beautiful, but I haven't seen it in real life yet. I'm pleased with how the focus on this photo turned out, it can be tricky to get right with my little phone cam:

I visited the boys for a bit.

These are field thistle flowers, the colour is more of a pastel lavender in real life. The flies on there are probably Empis livida, a type of dance fly.
