More importantly, though, Kevin Hart would like to remind you that none of this is his business (even if, in a strictly financial sense, it absolutely was his business).

ACA s1e8 "The Life of the Stars"

Last year, a friend gave me a bunch of seeds that were going to be thrown away, mostly packaged for 2024. One of the packs was for luffas, a type of gourd that is commonly used as a sponge. I threw 2 in my Aerogarden to watch them sprout. I quickly learned it was too much plant for not enough space, so I moved one outside into a pot of dirt. It looked really sad for a while, I honestly thought it was going to die, but after the transplant shock wore off it started growing and producing. The inside luffa only produced 1 female flower and tons of male flowers. The outside luffa had a lot more female flowers, so I hand pollinated all of the female flowers with males from the inside plant. I ended up harvesting 10 sponges from my one outside plant.

This year’s plant is from a seed I harvested from last year’s luffa. I have another plant that I’ll be culling soon because the pot is too small and it’s only producing a few male flowers. But the one in the picture looks a lot happier and the luffas are growing larger every day.

I hand pollinated them because the bees go crazy for my luffa flowers and take all of the pollen with them. The large luffa was pollinated about 2 weeks ago and the smaller was pollinated last week. They are so much fun to grow, I highly recommend them if you have space. My luffas are grown in pots with an upside down tomato cage for it to vine up.

I think I want to try other kinds of gourds too because they are so fun and useful! Plus it helps support my local bee population :)

Delaware Superior Court Judge Craig Karsnitz said the beach town of Fenwick Island was not diluting human votes by allowing companies ​and other legal entities that own property to cast votes in municipal elections.

The American Civil Liberties Union ​of Delaware sued the town, arguing it violated the elections clause of the state ⁠constitution. The group sought a court order blocking Fenwick Island from counting votes by "non-human artificial entities" in future elections.

The ​group said entities make up about 12% of registered voters in the town.

A lawyer for the organization did ​not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The town's mayor, Natalie Magdeburger, did not immediately respond to a request for comment but told Reuters in March that the city believes "a property owner who pays taxes and is subject to our ordinances should ​have a say in who represents them on our Town Council."

Cancer sucks. Bondi sucked.
