Guess I'm doing something right.

Image alt text: a butterwort plant mostly filling a green 3.5 inch pot. Its leaves are about 4 times longer than wide. They curl up at the edges, hot dog style. Each leaf has sticky dew drops to catch prey. A few gnats are stuck to leaves. At the tips of some leaves are tiny baby butterwort plants. In the middle is a rising flower stalk bent over on itself. A hint of violet and white petals can be seen.

I live in the US and don't think I've ever had a UK style biscuit. What are the asbolutely must try brands/types?

Title

I would like to present !AskMenOver30@lemmy.world

For many years the AskMenOver30 subreddit has been a very helpful, supportive, and wholesome place for general discussion among adults. The community has been a great example of how good the internet can be. I would love to see this legacy continue in the fediverse.

Trans men are men and welcome. People who are younger than 30 are welcome to seek advice from their older peers. Women are welcome to do the same.

sometimes, the most valuable lessons are the harshest ones. What’s a piece of brutal, no BS advice you think every younger generation needs to hear? It could be from your own experience, something you learned the hard way, or just a tough truth no one talks about enough. Let’s hear the cold, honest reality.

I'd just about given up on the dwarf sundew seeds I'd planted. After a couple months though there are at least a dozen small little sundews.

[Image description A very zoomed in picture of 3 tiny sundews. They look like red hairy spikes things sitting on wet green cut sphagnum moss.]

If you look closely, there are tiny hairs with dew all on the stalk.

[Image alt text: a blank white background with the flower stalk in front. The stalk is straight but then curves over to the right point back downward. On the left side of this arc is a closed flower from the previous day. At the apex is the currently blooming flower in profile. It's petals are a delicate pink. The part od the stalk going back down has curled up immature flowers which will bloom every 1 to 2 days as the stalk unfurls.]

As the title suggests, what did you do to stay fit/healthy?

I’m struggling the most with sleep, to the point where it’s difficult to focus on work the following day.

I’ve never been very healthy or in shape, but feel like if I don’t start now it will be very difficult to manage in 10-15 years.

Would love some advice/guidance/motivation.

My teens and 20's I always had something going on, always on the move. 30s were mostly spent working at my career and having children. I stopped doing everything, more or less. I turn 40 this summer and will hopefully have more me-time.

I'd like to explore new hobbies, skills, experiences, anything and everything. Give me your best recommendations please

When I was younger, I thought “making it” meant money, hustle, status. Now I just want stability, a calm mind, and maybe a good dinner. No shade to ambition, but these days, peace of mind feels like the bigger flex. Curious if other guys have had this quiet shift too, or if I just got tired.

This is a White Pitcher plant (Sarracenia leucophylla), East Alabama variety. That tiny little stalk is its first true leaf and it's first pitcher.

Like other temperate pitcher plants, the seeds needed to experience a period of cold, aka stratification, to be viable. I kept the seeds in a Ziploc bag with sphagnum moss in my fridge for 60 days before planting.
