i broke davis

jhvJKKVJSDHFKJSHD i love this cuz DAVIS doesnt look broken at all, it's the Entire Realm Of Reality Around Him thats all messed up. makes me think of a vague existential horror 4th wall break thats like....

in the darkness of the end of days, when the universe rips apart at the seams to reveal the codes and glitches and written destinies, when time itself unravels into a mess of beginning and middles and ends, when you open your eyes to a blank world where there is nothing, nothing at all---DAVIS shall be there, waiting.

unbothered and unfettered, he looks into the camera with a smile.

"Hello, Attorney!" he says brightly. "Before we go into this new world, let me give you a tutorial!"

PotW: Juniper (Juniperus communis) Belonging to the family Cupressaceae (that's the cypress family), juniper berries are technically a cone! As a gymnosperm, juniper has no flowers. The three scales in the female cone swell into fleshy segments that fuse and grow into large fragrant 'berries'.

Potw! Wood Anemone (Anemone nemorosa 'Allenii'). Branching away from trees today (lol) Anemone nemorosa is the uks native anemone, its natural shade is white, though 'Alleni' is one of its lavender cultivars. Wood Anemone in abundance is often a sign of ancient woodland, as it spreads only as much as 6 feet per century!

DRYP - an app that keeps your plants alive and happy

Hi Tumblr!

I know I’ve been gone for a while.

In part it’s because I’ve been working on an app!

I keep a lot of plants. I think everyone should!

- They clean your air - They give you something to name - They give you something to take care of - They teach you about care, needs, and resources - They make you look like you’re good at decorating

Here are some of mine:
