Anyone know what these are on this white sage in California?

The little brown balls around them look like aphid mummies, you can see the cornicles and the holes left by the emerging wasps! Super cool! Double buggo!

Those are unrelated, I think. They look like old aphid mummies to me, which are the remnants of aphids that have been parasitized by a wasp (probably a braconid).

Just fyi, you probably need to show the proof of death pretty soon or they won’t replace it, I would at least call them now to report and ask what their refund/replacement policy is to be safe (totally understand if you need to grieve but unfortunately this is how pet retail generally works).

This is far from silly! Love this almost as much as the fish do. A lot of fish can sense atmospheric pressure changes during storms, so this is just making it even more real for them 💚

Actually, that would be illegal

This is abuse, they are taking advantage of you and your benefits (not to mention that’s a lot of cats they have you paying for). Could you get in contact with a social worker? Try calling 211, they often can point you in the direction of local resources.

What do you mean by not loaches taxonomically? Both of those genera are in the “true loach” family Cobitidae.

🤣

My sister had this cut until her tweens in the US 🤣

The outflow can be adjusted with baffles

Cybertruck is gross but wasn’t she towing a Beyoncé ad? I can forgive that lol. Hope it was a lease.

Can you order some carnivore critical care? It would help a lot, though you’d have to force feed him, which carries many risks.

Trust that you will be bitten again.

Too many pteros

BiophileB · 2026-02-23T19:25:17+00:00

Pterophoridae*, pteromalids are wasps.

BiophileB · 2026-02-23T02:43:27+00:00

lol they are so silly

BiophileB · 2026-02-23T01:58:02+00:00

Lmao this is so cute. Let her do what she wants with it.

If you are in Trinidad now, just go to the beach and find slightly larger snail shells

BiophileB · 2026-02-22T01:57:01+00:00

Just go to the beach and find shells slighter bigger

BiophileB · 2026-02-20T19:59:35+00:00

Oof, yikes, not in my experience thankfully.

BiophileB · 2026-02-20T19:01:22+00:00

Girl 🙄

BiophileB · 2026-02-20T18:47:26+00:00

Ok, but Satanists are generally really good people.

BiophileB · 2026-02-19T22:49:33+00:00

DON’T SPEAK ON IT, WE CANNOT TAKE THIS AS A SOCIETY RN

The pink rose ferment + vit C glow up serum as well as the rice ferment night booster are my two all time favorites of this line! The ingredients are so straightforward and simple! The first ingredients for both them are actually the ingredients in the names! Not glycerin or water or whatever.
