So we have an Amorphophallus titanum about to flower in our botanic gardens, and they have a garden staff member stationed in the glasshouse all day to look after it. The lady there yesterday worked in a different area, so I was telling her what I knew about thermogenic plants and stuff, all of which I learnt from your blog. And at the end she was like, "what's the name of the blog?" And I was like "umm, *small voice* botanyshitposts". So I sort of feel like an idiot, but also it was amusing.
DUDE NO IVE DONE THAT SO MANY TIMES most recently in front of my biolab TA who turned and immediately looked it up on the giant classroom imac, it was wild
honorable mentions include:
-plant pathology professor via email. it must not have offended him much bc he let me know that theres gonna be an opening in his lab this summer....👀
-my aunt who works in science as a straight up professor at a university, i whispered it to her at the dining room table and she laughed.....ngl she and her wife are like my rolemodels tho theyre SUPER cool.......
-my parents. who told my grandparents. who apparently read this blog. it’s wild man 
-my mom has asked me before if i want to change the name so i can talk about it on job applications and stuff and like, honestly? nah. this is me just talking about what I’m learning just like I would talk about it to other people in my age and position (late high school/college students). its my rebellious plant education blog. 
my mom still asks me periodically; it’s clear that she wants to share it with other people on her facebook and stuff (sidenote: my parents heavily disapproved of this blog when I first made it because of the swearing. now that it’s gained a following- approaching 15k followers and page visitors from 91 countries- they’ve kind of changed their minds lol) but doesn’t want to because of the name. in response I asked her once if my dad, now a normal middle class marketing guy, ever swore in the underground newspaper he ran and wrote in college. she said that he did. i was like, well, this is my underground newspaper. it’s the same rebellious communication, same college humor, same audience. its just online and about plants.

What personality type are you?
No one asked for it but here it comes anyway! Because I enjoyed doing this quiz earlier, I’m now doing it for ALL of my muses. Everything is under the cut because of length. 
This is part one and includes: Alexis, Ava, Betsy, Bobby, and Bruce.
Here we go!
ALEXIS:
Tumblr media
You Are An ESFJ -  The Caregiver
You are sympathetic and caring, putting friends and family first. A creature of habit, you prefer routines and have trouble with change. You love being in groups - whether you're helping people or working on a project. You are good at listening, laughing, and bringing out the best in people. In love, you value harmony and mutual understanding. You will apologize or give someone the benefit of the doubt, if it means getting over a fight sooner.  At work, you are good at building relationships and connecting with people. You would make a great nurse, social worker, or teacher. How you see yourself: Organized, dependable, co-operative When other people don't get you, they see you as: Opinionated, critical, and know-it-all
AVA:
Tumblr media
You Are An INTP -  The Thinker
You are analytical and logical - and on a quest to learn everything you can. Smart and complex, you always love a new intellectual challenge. Your biggest pet peeve is people who slow you down with trivial chit chat. A quiet maverick, you tend to ignore rules and authority whenever you feel like it. In love, you are an easy person to fall for. But you're not an easy person to stay in love with. Although you are quite flexible, you often come off as aloof or argumentative. At work, you are both a logical and creative thinker. You are great at solving problems. You would make an excellent mathematician, programmer, or professor. How you see yourself: Creative, fair, and tough-minded When other people don't get you, they see you as: arrogant, cold, and robotic
BETSY:
Tumblr media
You Are An ENTJ -  The Executive
You are a natural leader - with confidence and strength that inspires others. Driven to succeed, you are always looking for ways to gain, power, knowledge, and expertise. Sometimes you aren't the most considerate person, especially to those who are a bit slow. You are not easily intimidated - and you have a commanding, awe-inspiring presence. In love, you hold high standards... for yourself, for your relationship, and for your significant other. While it's easy for you to impress others, it's hard for you to find someone who impresses you. At work, you are organized and good at delegating. You understand how to achieve goals. You would make a great CEO, entrepreneur, or consultant. How you see yourself: Rational, calm, and objective When other people don't get you, they see you as: Inflexible, controlling, and overbearing
BOBBY:

You Are An ENFP - The Inspirer
You love being around people, and you are deeply committed to your friends. You are also unconventional, irreverent, and unimpressed by authority. Incredibly perceptive, you can usually sense if someone has hidden motives. You use lots of colorful language and expressions. You're quite the storyteller! In love, you are quite the charmer. And you are definitely willing to risk your heart. You often don't follow through with your flirting or professed feelings. You break a lot of hearts. At work, you are driven but not a workaholic. You just always seem to enjoy what you do. You would make an excellent entrepreneur, politician, or journalist. How you see yourself: compassionate, unselfish, and understanding When other people don't get you, they see you as: gushy, emotional, and unfocused
BRUCE:
Tumblr media
You Are An ISTJ -  The Duty Fulfiller

You hardly ever do anything crazy. In love, you are loyal and honest. If you commit yourself to someone, then you're fully committed. For you, love is something that happens naturally. And you don't need romantic gestures to feel loved. At work, you remember details well and are happy to take on any responsibility. You would make a great business executive, accountant, or lawyer.How you see yourself: Decisive, stable, and dependableWhen other people don't get you, they see you as: Boring, conservative, and egotistical

This isn’t a new concept and idk if anyone is really interested, but I wanted to talk about my friends’, teachers’, or acquaintances’ types since I thought it might be fun to share my impressions of all of them. I’ve moved around a lot since my mom is in the military but have only learned about MBTI for two or three years, so even if I have met every type irl I can only really talk about the ones I remember.
ISTJ (my mom, 1 acquaintance)
h i l a r i o u s (without even trying to be)
Actually?? Gets things done??? Without saying anything??????
Tired. Tired all the dang time.
Ready to kill at any moment
Dog people
Always has to be doing something. If they’re not doing something, they’re bored.
Would die for their families
INFJ (my dad, I don’t think I’ve met any INFJs irl besides him and myself)
Done with life
Bad social anxiety
N E R D  N E R D  N E R D
Literally has a master’s degree in social work so like if you want a counselor he’s got the qualifications besides just being an INFJ
Thinks gender roles are stupid (he’s an emotional stay-at-home dad with long hair)
Took the test in college and got INTJ (lol relatable)
ISTP (my sister, 1 acquaintance)
Bored every day of their lives
Loves food

High-key space nerd
Everyone wants to be her or be with her like seriously how does she do it while still being so awkward
INFP (3 friends)
Cringe city but generally fun to be around anyway
Loves to take care of their friends
Dog people (animal people in general)
Anime nerds. All of them.
Super creative procrastinators (one writes and one draws)
Will fite you if you disagree with (a.k.a. insult) their beliefs (I hate arguing w them tbh)
Nostalgic
Internal screaming
All three of them give off pretty different vibes (idk if it’s the Fi?? enneagram differences????)
ISFP (friend)
So?? Chill??????
Sinnamon roll
Everybody has a crush on her and everyone is heartbroken bc she lets them down so gently
Always hanging out with people and going outside
Has huge collections of stuff (teapots, duck plushies, figurines, onesies, it never ends)
Has a more eclectic taste in pets (snakes, hermit crabs, fish)

Hard workers and volunteers

Competitive but will be really warm to you while trying to crush you
Looks introverted at first glance, but is just kinda chill when not in study mode
ESFJ (1 friend, 1 acquaintance)
One is pretty stereotypical, the other is a nerdy goofball

Quiet, but will laugh boisterously at dark humor
