My heirloom tomatoes are doing pretty poorly this year (not surprising considering how late I sowed them), but we still have a few from every variety.

Promise to sow them at the right time next year (someone hold me accountable).

Some great looking tomatoes, and I bet the flavour is unbeatable too

OP: I've seen this on X and it turns out the design aesthetic of White Rabbit candy wrappers is genuinely fantastic.

Cnetizens: The older generations truly had such great design taste.

(This whole thread kicked off after international users on X marvelled at White Rabbit candy wrappers, and Chinese netizens found this and shared what art style and design aesthetics looked like back around the 1960s-1980s on xiaohongshu.）

And old art styles during those days(cr三口草莓):

Chinese netizens also shared today’s White Rabbit candy, which features many different flavors and cross‑overs with multiple IPs(cr六角盐，骨架).

大白兔奶糖(dabaitu naitang)/White Rabbit Creamy Candy is one of China’s most iconic nostalgic milk candies. The iconic red‑blue‑white wrapper of White Rabbit Creamy Candy was finalized in 1959. Its vintage‑styled wrappers are widely admired online, and the brand now rolls out new flavors and IP collaborations. 金丝猴奶糖(jinsihou naitang)/Golden Hair Monkey Creamy Candy is another beloved classic Chinese milk candy from the 1990s. Wowo Creamy Candy also officially launched in 1991 and blew up in popularity throughout the 1990s. Together with White Rabbit and Golden Monkey, it formed the big three iconic domestic milk‑candy brands. Its signature wrapper bears a brightly colored rooster. The same brand also made Jiajia Creamy Candy, whose packaging featured a little monkey. Alongside White Rabbit, they carry warm childhood memories for generations of people in China.

That said, White Rabbit creamy candy remains a big‑seller to this day, while Golden Monkey and Wowo milk candy has faded into history. Many people find it a real shame, as its flavor was just as good as White Rabbit’s. Lots of people also recall that early‑edition White Rabbit candies were really soft. For some unknown reason, the recipe was changed later, making the candy much harder. You have to let it sit in your mouth for a while for it to soften up.

I bloody love white rabbit! Although you have to be careful if you have dental fillings

Bought some fabric printed with the pattern when I was in Hong Kong

"this thing is rare and only affects 1% of the population" dude that's 80 million people can you shut up

"this thing is so rare, if you put everyone it affects on an island it would be the 20th most populated country in the world, more than the UK, more than South Korea, and more than Canada AND Australia AND Tunisia all put together. we can literally forget about it that's not many people"

#is this about autism?

it's about autism and EDS and intersex variations and about trans people and also it's about golden blood and it's about blind people, it's about screaming all day long and howling the night out that you exist even if you're not everywhere, you're small but your heart beats and your lungs pump air and they want you forgotten in the pages of a book they won't read

Watching any movie before 2000 reminds you that people in movies used to be hot but like in a normal way

Good things will happen in September

Yes, what would you like to ask.

When my son was a baby he would raise one arm a lot and my husband would always say "question" which due to his accent would sound more like "quastion" and I would think of this post every single time without fail because the default state of a baby is "hi I need to be Loved"

Until death, all defeat is psychological.
