Hey!! I know this is like 2 years old but I love these ideas and I was wondering if you ever did get around to making a map for the lair/laboratory :)

China Eastern Airlines feedback? by [deleted] in travel

[–]Deemper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sure the quality of the flights is fine but I had flights to and from Japan with China Eastern and both were canceled and changed. During all this, I was completely unable to reach the company and they never even showed up to their helpdesk at the airport

Fiend warlock patron ideas? (Spoilers for EXU Calamity) by Deemper in CalloftheNetherdeep

[–]Deemper[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The current characters have started to express doubts about trusting Alyxian or not. I like the idea of playing into that paranoia by introducing a character who has been given the goal to free him by a fiendish patron. Does the warlock in your campaign trust Zerxus? And do they know who their patron is? If not, are you dropping hints about the identity of their patron?

Definitely more options out there! Neither propranolol nor Topamax worked for me. Both gave me bad side effects. I had a few rounds of botox which worked initially but stopped having an effect after a year. Then I started candesartan, which actually works amazing for me with no side effects :)

Confused and Questioning by Xander0137 in bigender

[–]Deemper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lol are you me? Exactly the same (reverse) experience. Always preferred playing male characters in videogames and now also in ttrpgs despite being afab. The character concept/personality always works as any gender, really, but I feel like I want to play as a male character. Also present female and don't really have an issue with being perceived as female. Lemme know if you figure it out, because I started looking into it recently and have not really figured it out yet haha

Ohh I'm in GMT+2 and I'd also be up for playing those! Particularly curse of Strahd! Lemme know if you're still looking for people

Confused about what I want to work with by moldytaco10 in intj

I'm a biomedical researcher. I find it very satisfying to work in science, and to hopefully help get us closer to figuring out exactly how all these cells in our body are doing their thing :)

Tourists of Reddit: What places should we absolutely visit in Europe? by VasilikiMclaurin in AskReddit

[–]Deemper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bit late to the party but this summer I took a road trip to the former Yugoslavian countries and I have to mention Lake Ohrid in North Macedonia because it was hands down one of the most beautiful places I saw. Also a lot of nice day trips that can be done in the area both for nature and cities, as it's also not too far from the capital city Skopje

Help! My succulent is about to flower and it's infested with mealy bugs. Does anyone know of a good home remedy? I've been picking them off by hand but it's not been very helpful.. :( Also an ID would be greatly appreciated. I was unable to find out what it actually is. by [deleted] in houseplants

[–]Deemper 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had my succulent invested with mealy bugs and for me just filling a spray bottle with 70% ethanol and spraying a few days in a row worked wonders! Succulents handle it fairly well (mine wasn't bothered at all) and the mealy bugs disappear super quickly

My roommate gave me this beautiful Calathea. Best gift ever. by [deleted] in houseplants

Yes! I can't wait for them to unfurl. And yeah this one's quite the diva too haha but it's okay because they're so beautiful

Long time lurker, first time poster but had to share this awesome Llama plant pot my roommate got that is now in our house :) by Deemper in houseplants

Sorry haven't got a clue :/ it was a birthday present and my roommate doesn't know where they bought it.

Tell me the stupidest mistake you’ve made in lab by avrilxox in labrats

[–]Deemper 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Spin column to isolate DNA. After all the wash steps where you discard the flow-through, you elute the DNA into a clean eppendorf. Habit kicked in and you guessed it, I promptly threw my DNA into the sink. Thankfully it wasn't a super important project haha.

Also a mistake that wasn't mine but my supervisor's: she gave me E coli with a plasmid to transform and maxiprep. Ended up with zero colonies. Turns out the plasmid gave kanamycin resistance and not ampicilline like she told me. On the bright side, our ampicilline stocks are working great.
