It looks like Kinoshita is finally taking Tamon off of his pedestal and accepting that he’s human like anyone else. It really sucks that she feels she needs to cut ties because of it though, but I’m sure he won’t let her.
Looking forward to next week.

You mean you don’t dramatically run to scenic views to talk your emotions out into the void?

It almost sounded like the aunt was hinting that Kaya wasn’t really her mother’s kid. This show is getting pretty interesting. I’m glad it hasn’t stuck to the slice of life vibe from the first couple episodes.

This show is so ridiculous, I don’t inow why I keep watching it lol
- Comment on What do you keep around to cover making most soil mixes? 2 weeks ago:
I have too much stuff lol. I went semi-hydro for a bit so I have leca, bonsai mix, and zeolite (zeolite was a bag of ecotraction). I also bought some silica sand (i think it was a bag of pool filter? it was cheaper) to mix into soil to make carnivorous plant medium.
These days I mostly just use potting soil, cactus soil, perlite, and orchid bark. I prefer pumice over perlite since it doesn’t rise to the top when you water, but perlite is cheaper. I keep a bag of sphagnum moss for growing alocasia corms, though I’ve also used leca for that and it works well too.
I grew a bunch of succulents and a caudex plant from seeds in cactus soil, they did well (I also had fungus gnats at the time so I lost some to those).
my caudex plants now mostly live in a 1:1:1 mix of cactus soil (or regular soil if I’ve forgotten that I use cactus soil for them), perlite, and orchid bark. They’re all pretty happy.

I might actually watch this recap because honestly this season has me really confused lol. I feel like I missed something inbetween last season and this season. Maybe I should watch the most recent movie. I assumed it was just the prequel episodes crammed together and released as a movie but maybe there’s more?

This show is so ridiculous. I love it. Was hoping Kinoshita would stand up a bit more to Keito but that’ll probably happen sooner or later. I’m curious to see what the last 2 members are like outside of their personas.

I loved Wandance! I have no idea why but I so looked forward to watching it every week. The ending song is great too, I added it to my anime playlist haha. After seeing everyone talk about Journal with Witch I think I’ll give it a chance. The description sounded too slice of life for me but I’m willing to watch an episode or two.
- Comment on Is it normal I feel embarrassed about being female sometimes because of feminine smells I don't want to be associated with? 1 month ago:
I’m going to respond seriously in case this is a serious post:
Typically the “fishy” smell comes from Bacterial Vaginosis, which is an imbalance of bacteria that can be caused by several factors. It’s not common in healthy vaginas and if yours smells like fish then I recommend seeing a doctor and having it treated. Most women do not have a foul odour down there, especially not one that you can smell through clothes while keeping normal social distances.
You can’t believe everything you’ve read on the internet. Also, it sounds like the men you’re getting your information from are either prepetuating this myth unintentionally, or are very immature and think they’re funny (they’re not). I recommend going out and actually interacting with women, there are plenty of women out there who are also not girly that have similar interests to you. They won’t smell any different than a man would.
The best way to overcome your preconceived notions about others is by genuinely interacting with those people. I’m sorry you were bullied, but just as jerks exist in all genders, so do kind and awesome people.

Did this show just do a complete 180 from cute romcom to stalker thriller? I honestly don’t know what to expect now lol
- Comment on [Episode] Kaya-chan Isn't Scary • Kaya-chan wa Kowakunai - Episode 3 discussion 1 month ago:
If you’re looking for horror then this is not that show. More so just a super-natural comedy. There does seem to be a bit of a plot but overall it’s a fairly low-stakes show. There are some heavier themes occasionally but so far it’s been pretty light for the most part.

😭 Poor Tamon

I didn’t expect to like this show so much but it’s easily one of my favourites for this season. I like how she’s unashamedly obsessed with Tamon and at the same time in complete denial over her very real feelings for Gloomyhara.

This one hasn’t flowered yet but the flowers are super cool looking! it did put out a peduncle but it’s right on top of the soil so the buds blasted off before blooming

Lol I'm glad you found them because I did not know what they were called. I picked em up from my local nursery, they're pretty sturdy and were under $10 CAD
- Comment on Portable watering station suggestions? 4 months ago:
I think this is a pretty neat idea! For some smaller pots I use a tray filled with water (linked below) for them to butt-chug and then I move them to an empty tray to dry before putting them back in their place
4” plant pot to help with scale.
I’ve seen others use their bathtub but I like the idea of not risking dirt/perlite/etc. clogging up the drains. Depending on your drain you could use a metal debris catcher thingy like I have in my laundry room sink (I found mine at the dollar store):

- Comment on New Alocasia Jacklyn leaf came in 5 months ago:
I find if I don't make my soil super chunky then it stays damp for way too long. My house is pretty humid usually so I usually go with 1:1:1 orchid bark, perlite, and potting soil. So far all of my plants have grown well in it, though I did have a lemon button fern that loved straight soil and staying damp. I miss that little guy... Stupid thrips.
