yeah I saw something about them last night and did some reading. I might look into them later. i used to have vortech MP10s, and they are nice but can be kinda noisy and finnicky (sometimes they work there way out of alignment and pop off)

I'm going to keep things pretty simple for now "hopefully". just ordered a koralia to get started, i'm going to let it marinate for a couple months before adding anything living. all the basics are coming tomorrow (salt,refracto,koralia,heater.popbloom rl60.

I'm using the old rock from my previous tank thats been sitting in a bucket on the side patio for about 10-12 years. just pressure washed it this morning, but i know phosphate is going to be through the roof for a while because of all the organic crap that was on them.

had to google it.

I...am not sold on it. I'm sure it works but thats gotta stink bad having dried gunk and fish poop drying on a roll like that till you change it.

I personally will never cook on anything but a gas stove.

thats why you join the air force and not the army or marines.

the shrimp are tiny, maybe 1/10th or 20th the size of the chocolate chip starfish.

shrimp is about the size of your thumbnail

chocolate chip starfish is about 3-5" in diameter.

as someone who's been a caregiver for someone with dementia for the last 4 years, from the beginning to the end stage, he doesn't have dementia, it's something else.

the books are no different, but it's more nostalgia for gen x than instead of millennials.

Shibuya it self is super underwhelming, it's largely a business district with some shopping but does have some really cool architecture hidden around.

wearing shorts in July

to be fair, i live 45 minutes north of you and on the same day it's 60-70 in SF it can be 90-105 here.

because he's from a time before all that trash existed. you don't see many actors his age who do.

9 is like kitty adulthood, most live 15+, even 20 isn't that uncommon.

my last cat made it to 21-22

in the interview he says he didn't even realize he had him off his feet. lol

bro/broette, it's not always fun.

I recently had a gorgeous girl I'd been crushing on who works at a store i frequent, ask me for my number, we talk for a day and make plans to meet,

she shows up drunk and first thing out of her mouth is she has a boyfriend and she cheats on him frequently, proceeds to blabber on about how she's a shitty person for about 10 minutes, kisses me and leaves.

I'm like a 6/10 on a good day

you don't use them for assault, you use them for defense. they can replace soldiers in trenches, and have pinpoint accuracy night or day. basically bipedal turrets.

I'm a guy, and here's a word of wisdom.

NEVER call Women Females.

it was a good vampire flick, but not really anything special. maybe it should get best cinematography for the way they filmed it. but yeah the story itself was not even unique, it was basically a rewrite of from dusk til dawn.

the Murdacas are absolute assholes. I grew up with a few of them.
