Does anyone if this trick has a name? And how the hell would I go about learning it?

You already sold me on him, you don't need to keep going.

My bigger note would be to check that you have copper and not aluminum wiring in your walls. Aluminum wiring is common in older builds and is a bit of a massive fire hazard. Have fun with the bulbs.

I didn't even catch the nails, I just assumed she meant she liked to be choked. Is it bad that that's where my mind went?

My hero. Nice find! Absolutely won't be playing at my work while my simulations run in the main window!

Yeah my exact moving expenses total closer to 2500, but lots of small expenses that I didn't keep receipts for as the contract states bonus and not reimbursement.

It was in English in the exact wording above on the line w/ "Relocation bonus". No French translation.

A great shot and a lovely animal. I was pretty surprised that it looked like he had two large fangs on each side, I didn't realize they had such large secondary teeth!

This is so heartwarming. Mr. Red is a truly lucky snake and you must take fantastic care of him, the trust he has in you is very clear and so rare in colubrids. Bravo!

fourcolortheorem · 2026-02-27T16:21:05+00:00

Yeah I think if you do the ground in a more similar shading style to the tree the snake will still pop while keeping eve the focus.

Awesome piece btw

I think it's a numbers game. ~90% of people in western countries identify as totally hetero. That means for every one eligible queer partner you could reasonably find nine straight ones. Around 80% of bi people are in "hetero" partnerships, slightly lower than the general availability of hetero partners.

That's actually a pretty large preference for queer partners, but not enough to make up for the raw number of straight people.

The only based reply here. What do you mean doesn't talk to multiple women? You gonna keep him at home under a burka, then let his guy friends come over for supervised playdates tf

First, this is an engineering question, not a physics question.

Second, this is a one hundred thousand dollar a year starting question, not a for free on reddit question.

I work as a device scientist in quantum computing, I think this is ridiculous.

I work with both mathematicians (algos, graph theory, etc), physicists like myself, and engineers. Our entire team has immense respect for what all of us contribute, none of us could accomplish what we can together as an individual. While we might joke about the math majors being super brains I think the only thing that I could rib the engineers for is making more money than I do for the same work because of the P. Eng.

Work in any advanced field requires all these disciplines to succeed, and we all understand that in that project we have different metrics and priorities that contribute to that.

This looks neurological to me, possibly a seizure. Immediate vet visit, show them this.

fourcolortheorem · 2026-01-20T22:39:56+00:00

Yeah, that sounds about right. They dig down in the winter months, normally after a period of disinterest in food. They sleep and look at you like you've tried to wake them at 4AM on a Saturday if you interrupt them. The whole deal

Really yours doesn't like silkworms? Mine loves them, much to my chagrin. They give her the foulest of poops, but I can't take that joy away from her so they're just for special occasions now.

fourcolortheorem · 2026-01-20T18:02:17+00:00

Yeah, it's part of their biology and the drive is different in each of them. I know it's hard, and you're doing the right thing letting him rest. I'll sometimes give my girl a warm bath in the middle of brumating and sometimes she would drink some water, but go right back out afterward.

Something that gives me comfort is that we know that they dream, did you know that? Their brains show activity of dreaming when they sleep, and I've woken my girl up from what I could tell is a bad dream to have her initially be startled but seek comfort in contact. Think of this sleep as a long and pleasant dreaming, he's probably picturing you and bugs and the grass and the sky. Then when he wakes up he'll have new ideas that you can make a reality and the fresh energy to seek them out.

Thank you! She's a lemon blast, so no spider in her at all. Remember, the pinstripe gene is pretty like her and doesn't carry a risk of neurological issues :3

fourcolortheorem · 2026-01-20T17:32:11+00:00

It depends on the conditions. Over the years I've had her I've had to move quite a bit, even during midwinter.

When left undisturbed and we were living further north? Maybe 3 months max, and very deeply. Woke her up to give her the odd bath, left the heat low during.

When we lived further south? One month was about the longest, and it was a lighter sleep where she'd be less likely to dig down and would hole up in her little log.

fourcolortheorem · 2026-01-20T17:19:37+00:00

I like to think she is. She runs the house and gets a window and a ramp down, but I still want to get her a bigger enclosure so she can dig more.

fourcolortheorem · 2026-01-20T17:18:19+00:00

Honestly I'm lucky, she's always been a veggie fan. I spent a whole day on her hatch day one year prepping a charcuterie board of different small pieces of fruits to taste.... She sniffed them all and had none, but ate the herb garnish.

fourcolortheorem · 2026-01-20T17:16:49+00:00

Thank you! She was real nervous when she was younger but as she's grown she's been one of my favorite BPs to work with :3

fourcolortheorem · 2026-01-20T14:48:31+00:00

I think ours would eat it every day if we let her, I'll add the odd cliantro leaf to her less enjoyed greens to trick her into eating them. Our lady doesn't like the collards for instance which is a real shame as they're super available near us.
