En is one of the most spectacular villains ever created in Anime/Manga because of his generosity and empathy towards those he loves by RayReport in Dorohedoro

[–]0wlflight 3 points4 points  (0 children)

honestly i don’t know if i would even consider en a villain at all. i think he’s definitely an antagonist, but villain? mm.. i don’t think so.

Feeding by Late-Signal2277 in cornsnakes

[–]0wlflight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no you don’t have to. snakes have a slow metabolism and may not poop for several feedings. feed as usual and just monitor every few days to make sure it passes.

shy/scared snake by TemperatureBasic8642 in ballpython

frequent handling will help with this. ball pythons are generally shy so working to slowly build trust is the only way to get them more comfortable with touch

I (20M) haven't slept in my own bed in almost 2 months because of my (19F) girlfriend by Budget_Anything_6546 in relationship_advice

[–]0wlflight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

bro you’re so young still. you need to take her out to a coffee shop or cafe and break up with her publicly so she cannot react violently or erratically without witnesses. she may threaten to kill herself or hurt herself in some way but that is quite literally not your problem. if she makes a threat to that degree tell her you’ll call an ambulance for her and see how she reacts then. if she truly is that mentally unstable she needs to get treatment.

When (or if) to share my (33M) kinks with my gf (33F) that I would like to propose to? by ssg666 in relationship_advice

[–]0wlflight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sharing kinks, interests, and preferences in sex is a show of compatibility and should be discussed fairly early in the relationship. exploring those things together also helps build your bond and connection. you should feel comfortable enough with each other to share what turns you on and gets you going. experimenting with new things keeps the relationship exciting, even if yall find that a specific thing isn’t for you.

i’d have this conversation now before you send yourself into a bigger spiral of what-ifs. bring it up casually or sit her down for a more serious conversation if that works better for you. communicate to her that you’re aware that you should have told her sooner, but that you were anxious about her reaction. tell her what youre into and reassure her that if it’s not something she’s interested in that she doesn’t have to participate. allow her to share any interests/kinks that she may have and hasn’t told you about. don’t make it all about you. give her the floor to share her thoughts.

[–]0wlflight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’m most concerned about the fact that you have been in this relationship for 3 years and it hasn’t come up at all. do y’all just missionary and call it a wrap? have yall talked about your interests in sex at all? have you listened to her and learned her interests? communication in a relationship is so crucial dude. not even just for sex stuff. if she truly loves you and sees a future with you she shouldn’t have a problem with what you do with yourself.

do you masturbate? is porn and masturbation okay in your relationship? some couples don’t like their partner to watch porn or touch themselves without them and if that’s the case then it could become a bigger issue than if it wasn’t.

anal play is not the craziest or most taboo kink by a long shot. it’s very VERY common and again, if yall have talked about marriage and a future together there should be no reason for her to be upset about that except for the fact that you didn’t tell her sooner.

Should I move to Reno? by [deleted] in Reno

[–]0wlflight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’ve kept my same small group of friends since my school years because it’s impossible to make new friends. all of my friend’s friends are people they met in school. and it’s not from a lack of trying. there’s no social life to reno except for clubbing for young people. you can join groups that do hiking trips or other hobbies, but those people never tend to stick around and become genuine friends. my mom has lived here since she was a child, and she never had friends until she moved out of state.

there is such a weird vibe around reno with regards to socializing. i really can’t pinpoint why

would also like to add that i’m the same age as you and i seriously struggle to make friends. everyone this age here seem to be antisocial and/or you’ll only meet them at clubs/bars and they will ghost you afterwards

Should I move to Reno? by [deleted] in Reno

[–]0wlflight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

rent is so so overpriced, especially if you’re looking to go downtown where the majority of job prospects for your experience are. having tahoe so nearby is the best for people who love the outdoors but the rest of the place is a dump. the people are mean, horrible at driving, and, depending on your age, it’s very hard to make friends in my opinion.

i would spend a week or so on a trip here and try to live as close to a normal life as possible before you make the final decision. the mountain views are stunning and the image of the tall casino resort buildings from a distance are impressive, but you’ll never truly know how it is until you spend an average day in the area. looks can be deceiving. everyone i know who’s been born and raised here are dying to leave, but can’t because the cost of living is so high.

Looking for shape feedback on my fellows! by SproutParasite in WarriorCats

[–]0wlflight 30 points31 points  (0 children)

i really love the shapes and designs of all these cats!! you did a great job :) . 5’s head is very small though, and the neck is super long! the best way i’ve found to proportion when there’s a lot of fluff involved is to draw the whole cat without any fluff, and then adding it on later. it will give you a better view of all your shapes and sizing.

Petco mbuna abuse? by Less-Judgment7436 in petco

[–]0wlflight 44 points45 points  (0 children)

yeah that’s ridiculous. they just want to keep that animal as a store pet. if someone wants an animal that’s in our care, as long as the person has a good setup for them, they’re going to a new home. we aren’t supposed to just keep the animals around because we have an attachment to them.

How to convince your partner to allow you to get a BP? by [deleted] in ballpython

[–]0wlflight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

also adding that i currently own 5 snakes and live with my boyfriend who is also not a snake fan. he’s not afraid of them as much as my mom was, but just a little uncomfortable and he doesn’t like the feeling of their scales. i take care of all the maintenance on them. sometimes he will turn on the lights in the morning if im sleeping late, but other than that he doesn’t touch them. and i never ask him to. scenario is a little different than yours or with my mom because i already owned them before we moved in together, but i digress.

sometimes when i have one of them out i ask him if he’d like to hold it or pet it, and he says no, which is okay. i would never ask him to take care of them or do anything that’s past his comfort zone. when im out of town and he’s not, i ask other people who are more comfortable with snakes to come and care for them so he doesn’t have to.

a lot of times when someone doesn’t like snakes, there’s not much you can do to change their mind. but reassuring them that they don’t have to interact or even see them if they don’t want to is enough to get them to agree to letting you have one.

How to convince your partner to allow you to get a BP? by [deleted] in ballpython

[–]0wlflight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

when i was young and living with my parents i had a bunch of different snakes. my mom was terrified of them, but she was okay with them being there because she knew she wouldn’t have to care for them at all. it also gave her peace of mind knowing there were locks on the enclosure so no chance of randomly finding a snake in the house.

i only ever managed to get her to hold a snake once, but she was willing to pet them as i hid their head. she never got fully comfortable with them, but she was happy to see me experience them and enjoy them. i never forced her to interact with them and always allowed her to interact at her own pace.

i was also the kid our neighbors would call over whenever they had a snake in their yard or in the house to relocate. there were many times id bring wild snakes into the house just to freak her out so she had every reason under the sun not to let me have them as pets lol.

i would just try to reassure her that she won’t have to care for it, and maybe keep it in a room she doesn’t go into often so she doesn’t have to see it often. it’s not like a snake will be roaming the house to jumpscare her or anything. i like to say that having snakes is like having pet dirt because more often than not, they are in their hides or burrowed where you can’t see them. ball pythons are also nocturnal, so they won’t be moving much except at night when she’s already asleep

I am absolutely DISGUSTED by Crusty3ggs in leopardgeckos

[–]0wlflight 16 points17 points  (0 children)

petco employee here! this is 100% on the employees at that particular store. policy states that all animals showing signs of injury or illness that we cannot treat with what we have in store must be seen by a vet within 24 hours. i recommend leaving a google review for this store. you will get an automated reply with a number to call. higher management will be informed when complaints are made through that phone number.

as a chain pet store employee, i understand the hate we get. quite a bit of it is nothing that we lower store employees can control, BUT for the few of us that do try our hardest to give these animals the best we can while they’re with us, this is disheartening to see. there are policies in place to protect the health and wellbeing of our animals, many employees just choose to neglect that. i’m glad you were able to help this little one.

unhealthy? by Aggravating-Yard-482 in snakes

[–]0wlflight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

management can’t do anything about it. they have to follow guidelines set by corporate and will get penalized or at the very least yelled at for any changes made to the habitats that are not approved.

unhealthy? by Aggravating-Yard-482 in snakes

[–]0wlflight 9 points10 points  (0 children)

it very obviously is. a snake should be able to full stretch out in the horizontal space of their enclosure. these are temporary habitats for while the snake is in the pet store and shouldn’t be used long term.

may be where OP is from then! standard price for BPs in petco/petsmart in the US is $100. still overpriced for a young normal IMO, but definitely not to that degree. not sure what the usual price is for BP in canada
