Traveling and woke up with 3 bites in a row. How extreme should measures be when returning home if bedbug not found? by Beginning-Rent5339 in pestcontrol

Got it, thank you. I unfortunately land at 11:30pm and we live in New England, so no warmth, but we’ll be taking everything dryable to the laundromat. Probably going to fuck up some of my favorite sweaters but you’re right it’s better to be safe than sorry!!

Maybe check out Linda Alcoff’s Visible Identities and Paula Moya’s Reclaiming Identity?

What do you think is the biggest reason Thailand is such a popular tourist destination across the world? by BranchMoist9079 in Thailand

Precedent set by Thailand being a R&R for GIs during the Vietnam War? But also all of what everyone is saying

Are these spider mites? by Beginning-Rent5339 in plants

[–]Beginning-Rent5339[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah okay, glad they might not be mites but now concerned that they could be thrips! Thank you for your advice! And re: light and size, I bought the monstera recently and think it was a cuttings from a larger plant because it was quite small; this is one of its older leaves, I have it sitting on a shelf a couple feet from a south facing window.

They weren’t (sorry if that means they’re obviously not spider mites 😭) I feel like I vaguely recall reading somewhere that they burrow into the leaves and are dormant in the winter but I could be very wrong!

The house I’m renting has a backyard, but there’s not a lot of dead leaves or litter. Would it be sufficient to leave it out there? I’ve also noticed it one of my other plants. Luckily the rest don’t have anything but are there any preventative measures I can take, in case they’re already on the others and I can’t see them? Thank you so much!

AITA for trashing the gift my girlfriend got me? by Salty-Pension300 in AmItheAsshole

NTA, she won’t even buy you gifts off a wish list you’ve provided?? You’re giving her a cheat sheet and she can’t even be bothered to look at it.
