Every word that starts with an N should have a silent G in front. Gnorway. Gnuclear. Gnervous system. Gnipples.
At some point my brain decided based on the word knee that body parts beginning with a n sound should have a silent k (particularly the word neck) so I am against gnipples wholeheartedly, it should clearly be knipples!

How about a compromise? Gn words and kn words get switched. So now it’s gneecaps and gnowledge, but it’s also knome and Knosticism.
the problem with this is that it doesn’t account for the original dilemma, which was gnipples vs. knipples
I, for one, think it should be pnipples, like pneumonia

Okay, but what about mnipples, like ‘mnemonic’?
Gkpmnipples (pronounced “nipples”)

No, we’re inventing Gkpmneo-French

We got a cat! She likes perching above my desk and watching bird TV in the back yard. The cone is off now, thankfully.

I freehanded this stitchery in about 7 hours today for a pal:
It was, of course, inspired by this post:

to be honest there has never been a fictional character i’ve actually wanted to date. like. i want them to date each other. i don’t want myself as a person to be involved in this scenario whatsoever. what would i add to this narratively? what’s my thematic purpose in the narrative? immersion breaking.

For the AMA:
say, hypothetically, you had an orchid that you acquired because you felt sorry for it and the inevitable death it would face if left to its devices at the place you got it. The outermost pot is ceramic with a flat bottom that is prone to retaining undesired amounts of water, and the substrate is some weird, likely synthetic, moss-looking sensory nightmare that seems to be rather dense and constantly wet even after two weeks of not watering the plant. It's also possible that one of the roots at the bottom has started to rot. Would you repot that orchid, changing substrate and the outer pot, even though it is in full bloom and also has some more healthy-looking roots, or would you wait and hope everything will be fine?
(Entirely hypothetical scenario. Of course.)
..at this point I probably could have waited for the one year anniversary of you sending me this, rip
anyway..
personally I would probably cut off the flowering stem and put it in a vase since they usually keep doing their thing even when separated from the plant. and then I would cut off all the rotting roots and repot into orchid substrate. I always leave a few air roots on the outside, but you can also gently bend some down so they are in the substrate, just be careful because they break easily.
I usually have glazed ceramic pots on the outside and plastic inner pots. there are some inner pots made specifically for orchids, which tend to have a sort of gap built into the bottom (as in the rim reaches further down than the flat section the substrate rests on, if that makes sense) but I've also done alright with regular flush bottom inner pots.
I usually water by pouring water up to the top of the pot and letting them soak for a few hours every week or couple of weeks, depending on the humidity levels in my flat (and on when I remember to do it. usually it happens once they start looking a bit sad 😶)
if you pour out the water after that time is up and let the inner pots drip out the majority of the water still caught in the substrate it usually doesn't cause any issues.
a little late, but maybe that answers your entirely hypothetical question?
Thank you, this definitely answers my entirely hypothetical question! And it seems that I have some entirely hypothetical work to do on an entirely hypothetical orchid. Hypothetically, of course.
