This is not entirely true. Malaysia and other countries have very conservative laws and social policies. Also, the English teaching industry is not what it was in the early 2000s. Most countries now have enough of their own English speaking population, and the.standards for foreign teachers have increased as a result. Even Vietnam requires a TESL diploma, which requires a degree to take. Any school that would employ someone illegally is not an employer to seek out as they (unsurprisingly) do illegal things in their workplace. Risk of deportation, the school being shut down, not getting paid, etc, is very high. Do not work illegally in another country.
(Not my cat)
Met this cat in my strata complex today chilling on some steps. It was largely indifferent, until my camera was ready and some screaming children were running its way. Even then it didn't run away! Hopefully I will have the opportunity to make this cat's acquaintance again.
I've had most these for 1-2 years and love how crazy they look.
I thought it was just another leaf growing, but to my surprise it was a bloom stalk. It lasted less than 24 hours before expiring, and a second opened up. It's always cool to get surprise blooms!
Zone 8b
Varieties: Russian blue, white
Grown in potato planting bags for good drainage. They are in the process of flowering, and some have produced a fruit (very poisonous - do not eat it). Hoping for lots of potatoes this year 🙂
The floppy plants to the left are garlic (soft and hardneck Italian). They are fine; they got too tall and fell over.
Saw this guy chilling on my deck railing, and as soon as the camera came out, he struck this pose.
This floofy boi befriended me while on a walk around my strata. He's friendly and wants all the pets and scratches.
My lithops have been in various stages of splitting for the past few months. They have decided to show the process all in one pot! The potting medium is perlite.
I saved this plant from my office 6 months ago because it had nearly no leaves, and now she's green and growing in a unique way. If this is what healthy looks like, it's all good with me.
When eating carnivorous animals there is a high risk of prions, worms and other diseases to be passed on. Raccoons are well-known carriers for rabies (I don't know much about badgers). RFK Jr got his brainworm from eating carnivorous game.
