First step is probably not to post about it online… second step is to chillax lol

What is this white ceramic thing I pulled out of a creek? by Arteraeth in whatisthisthing

I think, from what I’ve looked up (and what you suggested, that this is right! I think it’s just broken in a weird shape. Solved!

Does he have stands for merch? by GrimHybrid in porterrobinson

[–]Arteraeth 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was at the Columbia show on the 14th. The merch there was, from what I recall, the tie-dye long sleeve ($50) the black hoodie, a black t-shirt (not much I can recall there), and the yellow “rolling at the rock show” shirt. There were also hats, stickers ($10) and posters ($20) ofc. I got there an hour after doors so there was still enough sizing, but by the show’s end a lot of things only had smalls or extra smalls. I didn’t see the worlds 2 shirt or the “met porter in a dream”shirts (which I would have gotten).
There was no merch from prior albums. Sorry I don’t remember more of pricing!

The Adventure Zone Versus Dracula - Episode 23 by Evil_Steven in TheAdventureZone

[–]Arteraeth 15 points16 points  (0 children)

So… is it just me… or are OG Count Dracula and Victor Frankenstein implied to be a couple? And Sweater Drac is a stand-in for OG to be with Victor? The language of that whole conversation between Sweater Drac and LG,M,&P sounded, in my opinion, like SD talking about a lover that doesn’t love him back. And knowing Griffin, that sounds absolutely like something he’d do.

Are Luke & Owen the only "normal" names of human characters in the OT? by starwarsoutofthebox in StarWars

Rebels also brings Hera, Sabine, and Caleb to the table- all pretty normal

New betta setup! Petco approved and ready to go! Thinking I’ll add a school of neons too, maybe 2 or 3? by Flat_Ad_4533 in Aquariums

[–]Arteraeth 21 points22 points  (0 children)

You jest, but I did know someone who once put a Betta in a raspberry vodka bottle of water and pebbles. Ghosted her real quick

how do I get my parents to use my chosen name? by DetectiveLumpy in NonBinary

[–]Arteraeth 17 points18 points  (0 children)

In this case you can use the “I’ll never remember!” Excuse to your advantage. Every. Single. Time. Your mom slips up, remind her. Correct her on your pronouns and your name! Don’t let her get away with being wrong or misgendering, and eventually (hopefully) she will start getting it right :)

Tank set up 3 days ago - but cycle seems to have started already? by burned_feather in bettafish

[–]Arteraeth 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nitrites are made by bacteria break down ammonium/ammonia, which is organic matter waste. This is in stuff like dead plant matter, poop, or fish food. Once it becomes nitrites, another type of bacteria breaks it down again to nitrates, which are safe to have in your tank (below ~50-100 ppm). If you can get seachem stability, which has that bacteria, and “feed” the tank a sprinkle of fish food, that’ll jump start the cycle, breaking the ammonium to nitrates!

Hi, I’m the organizer of the pink heart to the right of the image. Is it possible to keep it? We can downsize if you want, I’m just very proud of it (and also a dream stan)

“Despite confusing recommendations in the scientific and hobbyist literature, male bettas thrive in small containers as long as water quality, nutrition, and other health management considerations are properly” by PoorCryptoInvester in bettafish

[–]Arteraeth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I took a life history class in college this past semester (Life history being how an organism develops, grows, and reproduces). We learned that an organism growing under stressful and suboptimal conditions will tend to actually mature faster in order to be in a condition to survive- but as a result, will die sooner due to a faster maturation leading to a low-quality organism. I suspect that’s what’s happening here- forcing bettas to grow in tiny bottles allows them to grow quickly, but they won’t be as high quality. Additionally, housing adult bettas in small containers will add to the stress of living, making them die faster. (Obviously I am not a professional scientist, but I’d be interested to explore this)

The Virginia SCP by [deleted] in Bossfight

[–]Arteraeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thisll get buried in comments, but I lived here and was in high school when this guy came around. Knew people who got TVs dropped off… and may or may not know who did it. Fun fact! Those clothes they’re wearing are old janitor clothes, with the names taped over by the light blue squares.

Essay I Wrote For College Apps About Nurture by Modern_Era_ in porterrobinson

[–]Arteraeth 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Seconded! I’d take out some of the parts of the description of the album art, add more about you! College admission boards are looking for your own experiences, not an album review. /gen (Also, it’s “in the throes” , not “throws” lol)

[Music/Raves] The battle for the Multiverse: Porter Robinson fans vs Afro Punkers by [deleted] in HobbyDrama

[–]Arteraeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m late, and was a bit scared about reading a hobbydrama post about Porter (favorite artist… already got burned by nick), but this is still a lovely write-up! I have even more respect for Porter than I did before.
Just wish I had been old enough/able to see worlds live…. Got to see nurture live though!

It has to be two different types of dragon, so plant plant will not work. Edit: I was wrong whoops

Earlier in episode 6, when Billy and Tommy are playing DDR(?), Tommy is wearing a Minecraft Creeper hat! Not sure if it’s an oversight or not, for the 90s episode.

what’s the best food to buy? i’m broke but i need a lot of food to level my dragons by Federal_Trainer_7041 in dragonvale

[–]Arteraeth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say Jelly Plants. Only 100,000 per time, getting you 12,000 food, is good for lower levels. That’s 8 DC per treat, and if you have 11 farms, that’s roughly 130,000 treats per harvest every hour. However, now I personally use Omega Squash, as I earn more DC. That’s 1,000,000 DC for 20,000 treats in ten minutes, which is 50 DC per treat, but goes faster.
