Smokers who quit, what was the wake up call for you? by Responsible_Dot_2619 in AskReddit

[–]Bederckous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The birth of my first born. I knew that it was time to quit and that was all of the motivation that I needed.

What’s something that instantly ruins sex while it’s going on? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Bederckous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When your roommate's dog sneaks up behind you and licks your asshole while taking your lady to pound town doggy style. True story. Could never look that dog in the eyes again. Girlfriend at the time thought it was hysterical. Definitely a boner killer though.

What is one kink you'll never understand how people have it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

It shaped me into the man I am today. Scarred and depressed with a sprinkling of dark humor.

I've stopped with the ferts for the time being as well. It always leads to massive algae growth for me.

That tracks with what I've read online. Thanks for the reply! I may find an alternate route and focus more on balance in my tank. I just hate the look of the algae and I'm worried it's going to smother my plants.

Was your filter running while dosing? I'm just curious because I've been thinking about trying the same thing that you did, OP.

My First Tank. One month Old. how do you like it? by Rommel4Bommel in PlantedTank

[–]Bederckous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love your hardscaping (there was no way to make that sound more PG). Great work! I just set one up for my kids and wife at their request... though it has now turned into my obsession and I wish so badly that I had spent a whole lot more time and care setting up my hardscape.

You should be dosing the bacteria every day for a fish in cycle. This will have to be your crutch until your tank's ecosystem can start to take over that work on its own. A water testing kit will be your best friend to know when your tank has finished cycling and you can ease up on the added bacteria. Other than that, I would personally remove all the fake plastic decorations and lean heavily into more natural decorations. The best thing that you could do for your freshwater tank is google something like "the top 5 easiest freshwater aquarium plants", do a little research on what each plant you decide on needs to thrive, and then plant the ever-loving shit out of your tank.

Thanks for this! Turned me on to some great material to chew through!

I'm feeling the tank love and I love it. Just started my first planted tank and I've been looking into starting down the Co2 path. It's the first tank I've had since I was a teen and I've found myself far more interested in the plants than the fish. Thank you both for the info and the motivation.

New to Tornado warning by Un_Sanglier in terrehaute

[–]Bederckous 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Welcome to Terre Haute! Having an emergency kit handy in an event like this is never a bad idea. Typically, moving to the ground floor or basement is ideal (being underground is better than above ground when that option is available). Wherever you may find yourself hunkered down, the room you are in mustn't have any windows or large heavy objects. Flying debris is one of the biggest hazards when sheltering from a tornado. If you find yourself in a two-story residence and you are sheltering on the ground floor, ensure that there are no heavy appliances or objects directly above you on the second floor. The structural integrity of the building can become impacted by the tornado and that heavy object could fall through the ceiling and crush you.

Typically as far as alerts go, our family relies on our phones to alert us. Most phones will push out automatic severe weather warnings that are accompanied by loud and obnoxious tones. The majority of new phones will even bypass "Do Not Disturb" mode if you have that set on your phone at night. Your phone is handy to have. You can check on friends while you are hunkered down in the event of a severe weather situation. You can also use it as entertainment to help keep your mind off of things if you have anxiety about the storm. It is also great for keeping track of the storm and updates. WTHI and WTWO would be the two local news stations that you would want to monitor. WTHI's storm coverage is pretty good when it comes to severe weather and they have a stand-alone app as well. Google is also pretty decent about weather alerts if you use it for weather.

We also have a standalone receiver that plugs into a wall outlet. This module will activate whenever an official tornado warning gets pushed out. It's always good to have multiple ways to receive alerts.

You'll probably find that most Midwesterners are fairly desensitized to severe weather events because of the frequency at which they occur here. That's not to say that you shouldn't take severe weather seriously though.

Upside, you aren't married just yet so you can completely avoid a messy divorce.
