n00b ... I post garden pics, political whines, and reposts. Like to see medical and environmental news, books, beads, jewelry, art, tattoos, poetry, mineral shows, and more. Want to get better at hashtags and alt text.

What a bunch of incompetent chuckleheads, seriously. Anyone have a screenshot of the praying hands emojis part of this oh so adult convo?

Looking forward to the Danbury Mineralogical Society's annual Gem, Jewelry, Mineral & Fossil Show! Must be doing something right, as the show's been around for over 70 years. Most vendors keep coming back, as do the visitors! #mineralshows The weekend after Labor Day, in New Milford CT.

What's with this mushification, NPR? Do better, please.

Here is the screenshot cropped from my phone. As if I hadn't already "researched elsewhere" and found only "not possible" answers. And are we to believe that reddit takes offense at the observation that some ads are sleazy? Srsly? #socalledmoderation #pollyanna

Welp, guess we won't find any answers that way. Strictly profit? Profit plus disinclination to deal with lawyers over ads being restricted? The post was "removed" so fast that if it was dropped food it wouldn't even have hit the floor. #reddit #askReddit #socalledmoderation #bots

I'm sorry I don't provide alt text often enough. Not that it's any consolation, but often I don't post an image because I don't want to post it without alt text. Anyway, This is real, I just took this screensnip myself, and WTF #NATGEO ?? What is a SPEACIAL ?? #NationalGeographic #Speacial

Shout-out to the many artisans selling work on Etsy & elsewhere who have always photographed each OOAK item. Do you buy ooak organic lapidary items sight unseen from stock photos? In this case it could even be argued I received a "second," as the finish was irregular, unlike the photo.

Two messages, the first a partial/conclusion, date not shown; the second dated October 19.
First message: "Perhaps consider adding "item shown is a stock photo -- you will be receiving an almost identical custom piece," or words to that effect."
Second message: "I’ve been in business for over five years, and taking thousands of individual photographs would be impossible. Moreover, your consideration of my handwork is unreasonable. It’s beautiful! Please shop elsewhere in the future. I don’t want your business."

September in New York means harvest time, yes, and garden reorganization, yes, and starting to re-pot and/or re-home tender perennials. For example, this lovely but very spiny #Naranjilla #Solanumquitonense

Potted plant with large leaves, outdoors, with background including weeds and/or vines, weathered logs, part of an upturned garden cart. Potted plant has a center stalk with large leaves growing each on its own stem. Leaves are shaped like holly leaves, have reddish midribs, and entire plant is covered with prickles barely visible if you zoom in.

Summer is winding down here in New York State. This year's #daturaexperiment got off to a late start but was looking good today between the rain showers. 🌱
