Jareth, the Goblin King

That is a robber fly. We have lots of them around, and they’re usually good pest control. They can deliver a pretty painful bite, though, as I learned the hard way when trying to catch one.

It's called ice plant. There are several varieties.

Mammoth wasp https://observation.org/species/159410/

Corpse flower.

Lotus maculatus, also known as "Parrot Beak", from Canary Islands https://www.indefenseofplants.com/blog/2019/6/17/can-cultivation-save-the-canary-island-lotuses

Black jalapeno pepper?

Looks like an old barrel handle

I‘m pretty sure it‘s a rose chafer (Cetonia aurata).

Looks like you've got a colony of woolly alder aphids. https://uwm.edu/field-station/woolly-alder-aphid/

I'm curious myself, I've never seen one like this! We have little white puffball looking ones but they're more round and fluffy.

This could be a Common White Wave (Cabera).

That’s definitely a cherry millipede. They secrete cyanide, and I’d recommend leaving them alone because they smell REVOLTING when disturbed.

Could it be Chert?

If this was store bought potting soil, be happy you have mushrooms. This means the soil is healthy and rich. I have been surprized at little clusters of light brown mushrooms in a huge Mother In Law's toungue plant I have. I freaked out because it is right next to my bed and I thought GREAT! I'm going to die of inhaling Alien Spores From Hell and they name a wasting disease after me. But..am told, mushrooms growing mean your plants is very happy and they are good for the soil. I wouldn't recommend eating them, ever. You don't know what they are and you're watering the plant with tap water. There is stuff in the perlite and soil and fertilzer. Just, no. Enjoy the extra bonus Life and let it do its thing.

Sphinx moth, they are pretty common in Louisiana for sure. I love those guys

I’m pretty sure it’s a zinnia

”Pilea peperomioides" or "Chinese money plant" Classified as pet-safe were I live so not considered dangerous

If you use a photo editor to view it in negative you can see a little bit of a possible second 'o' on wood. Spent about 30min googling stuff and came up with nothing 😔

If that's cedar wood, that's a pest infestation
