Well that was a *Strange* trip

Pic snapped back in August 2019 at the Missouri Botanical Gardens. It was just a pic of him walking so I decided to try a composite and added a little flair to the pic. First serious composite I ever really did on my phone

MOBOT Mark II

[the-zebra-dragon]

Last week we went to the Missouri Botanical Garden (MOBOT) as part of our summer vacation. Technically we were in St. Louis for a wedding, but my sister had free tickets to the garden through her work, so we decided to take a few days and do all the fun St. Louis things.

Now, MOBOT has been under construction for a while for a new visitor’s center. As luck would have it, the day we were there, the Garden Members were having an exclusive preview of said new visitor’s center. My family (+sister’s roommate that tagged along) are not members, so we figured we’d see it some other time.

MOBOT is famous specifically for it’s massive tropical greenhouse, the Climatron. It looks a little bit like THIS:

And is home to over 400 varieties of plant life, according to Wikipedia. It’s fantastic and a fun place to walk through (and air-conditioned!) and I highly recommend it. This is also where we met Diane.

Diane, if I remember correctly, has volunteered at the Botanical Garden for 15 years. She was walking through the Climatron and stopped to chat with us near the end, when my sister and her roommate were throwing water bottles at us and telling us to hydrate. Diane asked if we’d enjoyed our visit thus far (Yes) have we been here before (Yes) and most importantly, did we see the pitcher plants in the middle of the Climatron? (Absolutely)

At this point, I’m vibrating in hyperfixation. I FUCKING love pitcher plants, dudes. Yes! I saw them! I know so much about them! They are my beloveds! Diane asks me if there are pitcher plants that are bigger than the Climatron’s. I practically vibrate out of my skin with a “Yes! Some can even catch small mammals and reptiles!” I didn’t even get to mention the Bats! Diane is thoroughly impressed with me regardless! She would hire me on the spot if she had that authority, and tells me as much. She continues asking questions about pitcher plants. I continue answering them. Diane continually says she wants me to work at MOBOT. I think it would be a dream, personally.

We eventually part ways with Diane, and head out to the Home Gardening Center. In retrospect I maybe should have asked about keeping my pumpkins safe from pests (squash bugs FUCK OFF challenge). We wander the demonstration gardens for a bit before realizing among their veggies that we’re all starving. You cannot eat the veggies out of the MOBOT veggie garden, because if everyone with vaguely sticky fingers did there would be no vegetables to display, and that defeats the purpose.

Luckily, MOBOT has a tram system, and there’s a stop right outside our current location. Since they do have to pay their workers, however, the tram is five bucks per person if you’re not a member. It is what it is. We’re resigned to shell out thirty bucks (hopefully to replace the dead cobra lily in one of the nearby flower beds, may it rest in pepperonis) when someone hollers at us from the tram. It’s Diane! She remembers us!

Diane, in addition to being a volunteer, is a member. And members, she points out to the tram driver, can bring five non-members onto the tram free of charge. Our group is six. The tram driver, feeling the spirit of giving, lets our sixth person on under her own membership. Diane asks where we’re heading as the tram starts moving. We explain that we’re looking to get food, and also could we leave the garden and come back? Is that allowed? Diane confirms that’s allowed, BUT she has a better idea.

The tram takes us around the long way, past the Japanese Garden, Henry Shaw’s house, and one of the botanical museums. Somewhere in there I tell the story of Persephone, as her statue resides along this route, and I have a cat named after her. We make it back as close to the front as is possible by tram, and Diane marches us to the old visitor’s center. It is connected to the new one by a single door, guarded by a nice young woman. Diane tells her that we’re with her, and we’re all going into the new visitor’s center. The young woman is fairly certain this is breaking some rules. Diane tells her it’s fine.

The new visitor’s center is gorgeous, y’all. We all follow Diane down to the snack bar for sandwiches (we were planning to eat a big dinner, so we didn’t need a whole lot). She makes sure we don’t need a membership to actually buy the food. Once that’s all settled, she tells me she’ll see me soon (presumably as a staff member) and promptly vanishes into the garden, never to be seen again by us.

There’s good in this world, guys. There always has been. And sometimes it’s in the botanical garden, and it’s curious about pitcher plants.

#mobot if you see this no you didn’t #but also love what you’ve done with the place 🥺👉👈 #Diane is a fake name just so we’re clear #i would love to work at the botanical garden but my degree is in graphic design so you can see where I might have a problem with qualifying #here. pitcher plant facts: the two major kinds are tropical Nepenthes and North American Sarracenias (+cobra lilies on the west coast) #they’re bog plants!! reach into your local bog and find a friend and boy! #some get big enough to trap small mammals and reptiles! tasty #there’s a kind of Nepenthes that has a relationship with local bats! they sleep in the pitchers. cozy!

Once Upon a Flaming Battery

I got to hang out with this adorable couple Sunday at Missouri Botanical Gardens. I love this spot. So many different setting options, and it is GORGEOUS any time of year.

Michael worked really hard to surprise Alisha, which is apparently no easy task. This also meant I got to be the creepy lady in the bushes. While I was waiting, I had made friends with an almost 2-year-old who kept wanting to show me his ball. When Michael and Alisha walked by, this came in incredibly handy, and I told the Dad I was going to pretend to chat with him so it seemed like no big deal a lady was standing in the middle of the Gardens with two cameras.

Michael strolled on by, and I gave him a wink. I waited, and then followed them to the dock by the Japanese Garden.

A few selfies later, and a drop to one knee Alisha agreed to forever after.

Their story began “Once Upon a Time on Bumble.” A successful first date, and a Murphy’s Law second date sealed their fate. Alisha got to meet Michael’s Mom on the 2nd date after his motorcycle’s battery caught on fire. The couples who last always seem to have a funny story like this.

Congrats, Michael and Alisha! I love the way you love each other. 

Thank you for hanging out with me, and being game for my random shenanigans. 

Happily ever after looks good on you both.

okay... possibly unpopular wg opinion but i don't think violet is the best friend towards becky after s1 passes

OKAY, I GET IT..... she's a kid, kids are going to act rude towards their friends but. come on

violet has always been kind of controlling when it comes to becky, even putting her friends discomfort behind her own ignorance (ex. in "too loud crew" when she gets mad at becky all bc she's uncomfortable at her house????)

not to mention how she isn't really supportive of beckys art skills, like okay yeah we get it you're good at art but you can't be passive to your friend whenever they're proud of their art and you think it's "bad" (as seen in "mobot knows best")

and to top it all off, let's not forget her reaction at finding out becky was wordgirl!!!!!!!!! like wow you force your friend to reveal one of their greatest secrets ever and when she tells the truth all you do is abandon her instead of at least trying to understand why she hid it from people??

the "starting over" scene wasn't any better, sure on the surface it was wholesome but there's a quick part in the episode where violet stares at becky with a begging face when becky just introduces herself as becky, almost as to say "i thought you had a very deep and personal secret no???"

it's just upsetting that violet gets away with treating becky like she does and instead of getting told off/taught by others on why it's not good they just play it out like "sure violet is a bad friend sometimes but that's okay bc friendships are all different"

END OF RANT but i just had to say something about it, i don't hate violet as a character at all but i just don't like the way she treats becky :(((( she's so on and off with her

#wordgirl #wordgirl rants #wg rambling #wordgirl becky #becky botsford #wordgirl violet #violet heaslip #idk but imo their friendship is so complicated 😭😭😭

HOLD ON DOES VIOLET HAVE TWO MOMS???

Season 3 episode 12b: Mobot Knows Best Violet says “My moms? Talking to Mrs Davis? That makes me a little scared!”

Didn’t expect to see a mention of queer people from a show that came out in 2007

Punched Tape

Computer Punch Tape? Perforated paper tapes were first used by Basile Bouchon in 1725 to control automated weaving looms. I first used these tapes in high school, in the early 1970s for the storage of computer programs. In school, we used one-inch wide, 8-hole paper tape. We used a TTY terminal, like the ones whose sound has been adopted as a shorthand sound effect for breaking news. Our TTY…

Nomad 200 by Nomadic Technologies Inc. (1990), Mountain View, CA. Nomad 200 is a 1 metre tall cylindrical robot that drives around on a non-holonomic three-wheeled base. The motions of its three wheels are synchronously linked together, so it has one motor for translation and another to steer all three wheels together. A third motor controls the angular position of its turret. The base has a tactile sensor ring with 20 pressure sensors around the perimeter. The body of the robot houses an Intel 80486 microcomputer, and it has 16 Polaroid sonar sensors mounted around its circumference. It also has a TV camera and a structured-light laser rangefinder that works by projecting a plane of light, producing a broken line when it intersects an object. A pair of Nomad 200 robots were used at the Stanford CS Robotics Lab for their research on 'mobots,'
