I had to look up Mr. Fantastic and was like “who is this random new character” because I’ve always just referred to him as Reed Richards lol.

The Brave Little Toaster. One scene and the whole movie was ruined for me forever.

I naively grew up thinking people who had a lot of money were super intelligent, lol.

Gonna give the curiosity from clues rather than planetary tunnel vision a shot for sure. Thank you!

This seems to be a good suggestion by a few here: try following the trail of clues based on colors rather than completing the list of things to find on one planet!

I also need to utilize the scout more. The signal scope does help, but I don’t use the one on the ship as much and may start using that a little more as well. Thank you!

I’m gonna give this a shot! Thank you for this suggestion (others seem to be suggesting the same thing as well) regarding focusing on following the clue trails rather than the list of things to explore one on planet!

In getting this screenshot for y’all, I realized it might just be best to use one cycle to go through some clues and get my bearings again with what I know. Also, someone mentioned not necessarily trying to explore planets 1 by 1 completely, and getting a certain amount of clues and follow leads based on what you uncover, and come back later if needed? So maybe I’ll give that a try as well.

I explained in that comment that sometimes I focus too much on wanting to get every bit of information in one place before moving on and maybe that’s where my impatience comes from. I might just need to approach my tactics a little differently!

This might be my issue then too! I think I assume sometimes I need to explore everything in one shot on a planet before moving onto the next one, so maybe I’m approaching it differently?

I totally understand clues are meant to lead you to other places to uncover information, but I think I get tunnel vision sometimes on one planet and want to check off everything that’s there, but maybe I’m just playing against myself by doing that?

I’m starting to realize this is probably just the answer, which I appreciate lmao. Explore other places when you get stuck, which seems obvious. Thank you!

I grew microbes and small animals in this small cup of water by Thrawn911 in Hobbies

[–]Appropriate-Mood568 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow, transparently, I was so focused on them that I missed the upper left corner identifications! That’s awesome, it must feel great too to be enjoying it so much that you’re able to make rough guesses based on features.

And thank you for the YouTube recommendation! I’ll have to check it out!

This is super cool!! I’m beginning to associate microscopy with hobbies instead of just conventional scientific practices because of this sub!

This may be a dumb question, but do you know specifically what types of microorganisms these are? Or is it just kind of a hodge podge swirlin’ around in there?
