    I have a couple white ones growing in my yard. I’m going to place the seeds intentionally this year because some grow where they get trampled or knocked over. I started with one and I think I have 5 or 6 now, but only two are blooming already.

    Edit: I just realized this is the pics comm, is this oc? The picture is beautiful. I love how intricate the flowers are, and it was captured nicely here.







  • Your comment is confusing me.

    While I agree that Ticketmaster is a fucked up monopoly,

    Implies that what you’re going to say next is something that either excuses them or is worse than them, but you go on to say:

    the only one fucked were those buying tickets.

    Which, imo, is true but does not follow the logic of the “while” statement.

    Then you go on to say:

    Taylor will easily survive another day; those that sold their pancreases for a seat…not so much

    Which makes me think you are blaming Taylor Swift for Ticketmaster’s prices, or at least saying that she is complacent in some way. But the point is the prices were set by Ticketmaster, and padded with exorbitant fees that Taylor had no control over.















  • Another great thing about watching TOS first is it really gives you perspective on how Starfleet has grown as an organization over the years. The protocol changes, new alliances, old enemies, etc. There’s a great reference in one of the early TNG eps about the prime directive that makes more sense if you’ve watched TOS (or are a Starfleet officer).

    I, admittedly, watched about 1/2 of Voyager first, but I recommend going through the franchise chronologically if you have time. There are some bad/tiresome eps of all the generations, so maybe check and episode guide if an ep gets boring to see if it’s skippable, but there are enough amazing TOS eps that I’m glad I didn’t skip that generation. And it’s great seeing the similarities and juxtaposition of the old and the new.
