I cannot describe how much I love plant horror π
I blame my elementary school science teacher who did a week on invasive species and introduced us to those pics of kudzu vines that are in the shape of animals and monsters ans how rapidly they spread
Like, I just want to be devoured by the earth while my blood is still warm and there's still breath in my lungs. I think it would be fittingly painful and very nice.
I just want to:
fantasy characters: βGeezβ
me: who the fuck spread Christianity there
Worlds Within: Pill Bug Terrarium
Β Bioluminescent mushrooms are just magical~ I hope to see these in real life one day :D In the meantime, I can dream and paint them instead.

At the library I picked up Venomous by Christie Wilcox, a nonfiction book about venom, on a whim and holy shit. I just finished it. Iβve never torn through a non-fiction book this fast. Absolutely fucking amazing i am just reeling from the pure wonder and fascination and the absurd amounts of cursed knowledge
