If you're interested in the diy for ants, even if just out of curiosity or if you like simply watching the process of making them, I'd recommend you channels like D colony or TexAnts. There's also AntsCanada, less on the diy and more on the craziness an ant keeper can reach lol

Spider wort is in the Tradescantia genus, right? I'm learning you have to keep them alone for them to thrive (I almost killed my T. zebrina and have an overgrown T. pallida). Seriously, you can even forget a cutting in the sun without water or anything and after days it will be like nothing happened.

Sometimes I wish I had friends nearby to give plants to.

I send you a /hug and good luck searching for joy!

I was missing a reference to us being basically a water balloon. Well done, human.

I'm so effing depressed, so the best I can offer are distractions lol I keep going, but I miss the joy most of the time.

My special interests right now are plants, fishes and ants. In the northern hemisphere is a good time to find some queen ants, making diy homes for them is rewarding, cheap and it won't take a lot of space (at least for some time, until the colonies grow). Plants are great because a lot of people have them, so you can ask for cuttings and tips, and there are also studies about the benefits of having plants in your environment. Almost the same with the fishies.

If you find something interesting, even a little, try it. There's always time to leave it if finally that's not your thing.

Thanks! This is something many people tell but a personal experience of success is what I think I needed.

You forget the part where it's not as easy as it sounds...
I had to write a kind letter to myself as a part of a therapy and I'm still unable. I cannot say anything nice about myself. It took me years to admit I'm a decent cook and I eat the proof lol

I keep trying, but any tip on how to actually being able to tell me nice things about myself would be of great help.

Thanks again!

The matter is not javascript per se but the use companies and new developers do, if everyone used like you there would probably be no problem. A gazillion dependencies and zero optimization, eating up cpu, spying on us, advertisements...

And if you try and use an alternative browser you know many websites won't work.

How do you learn that power?

Who use dermestid beetles as clean up crew? The usual beetle for that matter is Alphitobius diaperinus (or any tenebrionid), maybe dermestid beetles don't eat oothecas?

I have several tenebrionids, A. diaperinus are in my dubia roach bin because those roaches keep the ootheca inside, but I can't put any tenebrionid with my red runners because they lay the ootheca and the larvae could eat that.

So... 100000€ because 19 cats, that shouldn't be there, drowned. Domestic cats are extinction agents, cat colonies need to disappear (not by drowning the cats, ideally in my mind they should go to a really big building just for them, I am a silly dreamer) and if the cats aren't feral, they should fine owners that let them roam outside. It's bad for the ecosystem, dangerous for the cat and even for their humans (zoonosis).

That money would be better spent taking cats off the street.
I don't find this uplifting at all.

I recall you could pay for some VPS but it was years ago and I know nothing about the current situation.

Cryptocurrency was going to be an alternative coin but it's just used to speculate and buy illegal things.

But we're mainstream now, we need to improve our unbearability.

It's the year of veganism (and Linux) in your household.

In my head it was said with the voice of Jenna Maroney (30 Rock).
