In the battle against the fungus gnats that have recently begun plaguing my grow room, my sundews (Drosera capensis [Cape Sundew] pictured) like to do their part. I've begun adding Bacillus thuringiensis ssp. isrealensis cultures to my watering supply to kill the little bastards' larva. #BiologicalWarfare #PlantPorn #ILikePlantsMoreThanPeople #ILikeMostPeopleMoreThanFungusGnats

Retro SciFi Film of the Week…

Things to Come (1936)

H. G. Wells wrote The Shape of Things to Come in 1933 when he predicted WWII and many other events and inventions that would come true. He even predicted that men would wear culotte miniskirts and shave their legs. (Actually, predicting WWII wasn’t that extraordinary of a feat, everybody saw it coming.)

This big-budget British-made adaptation is one of the classics of science fiction. The story covers the future from 1940 to 2036. I think it comes across as pompous and bombastic, but apparently audiences at the time liked it.

This film is available for free download and is in the public domain, even though the Supreme Court says it isn't.

I’ll include more in this thread under a spoiler warning…
