I don’t know what this little plant is but it chose a challenging spot to try to survive:

I realised that I do not understand the Colorado peoples' hatred of dusty millers. In the early summer, they show up and fly around and die, or make it up to the mountains for the bears to eat. I come from where they hatch and take off, so I don't really care when they show up and die. But Coloradans act like this is an infestation. I just realised. I have not smelled the scent of thousands of asian lady beetles collected in a stairwell over night in over 5 years. A smell that FESTERS in the heat, while the little bastards fly at you and bite you and then release some stench and fly away again. And so you just sort of get used to everything smelling like acrid smokey dead bugs for 4 months out of the year, or whenever you finally decide to vacuum out the windowsills.

Nature Wonders ;
Larvae and pupa stage of the Asian Lady Beetle ♥
It's so interesting how they go from egg, to larva, to pupa, and finally turn into a ladybug! (in this case it's a lady beetle, a bit more aggressive than the ladybug).

[video description: a closeup of an arm as seen by the person it belongs to, with an asian lady beetle standing on the wrist. As the beetle climbs along the forearm toward the wrist, the arm moves to keep it in gram. A softly voiced voiceover sings:
“There’s a little guy, crawling up my arm. There’s a little guy, I won’t do him harm! S’just a little guy, don’t know where he’s been. But he’s gonna climb, right across my skin.”
By the time the song ends the beetle has stopped its trek, stretching and wiggling its legs in place. /end description]

I consider these guys to be the messengers of good news. They show up to let me know it’s going to be okay <3

hired a pest control company to get the mice out of my attic, and while they were at it they decided to spray around the outer wall of the house to keep spiders and crickets out. which is bullshit. putting aside the fact that those are my friends, if you're serious about this pest control thing you should bring me more spiders.
there are spiders big enough to eat mice, right? let like thirty tarantulas loose up there. gets rid of the mice and added bonus, now there's bigass spiders everywhere. makes your house cool as fuck
