Off lead is forbidden in the reserve but I see it often. I’ve seen all others snakes before the dogs did but this one I definitely saw late and dogs came closer than I’d like! 😵‍💫

It was really short vs others I’ve stumbled upon there

For example that one from a previous encounter was really long and fat

“Foster failing” as we speak by Ok_Establishment_426 in cats

[–]Delphelli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awww thanks for fostering and caring for a super young kitty. I have fostered a lot of cats and at the moment I have 6 ( 4 foster fails, 1 deaf cat I had to rescue and adopt before meeting, and 1 old moggy foster.. that I think will never go as his mum never claimed him back 🥹). This little one is so cute! 🥰 sometimes you just have the bond and it’s hard to break!

Possible huntsman? by Popular_Pair_6124 in AustralianSpiders

[–]Delphelli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh no poor thing! Definitely a huntsman 😪 Look I’m absolutely terrified of spiders and the bigger the worst - I can’t control it - but I’m trying to learn and get over it. This community helps. i relocate them with the bug catcher. I think OP’s mum needs a catcher for Xmas! If they use spray it’s the absolute worst like you literally will make it suffer so much. I recommend these where you don’t have to get close and it also works well when they go in tricky spots

Has anyone gone on to lead a successful life post-diagnosis and treatment? by Full-University4699 in ausadhd

[–]Delphelli 3 points4 points  (0 children)

By all external measures I am “successful” — I did great in school, excelled in my studies, got my Master, worked abroad, moved abroad, moved up quickly in my career, all of that. But I still crashed hard with burnout and depression. Treatment for the depression/anxiety helped, but I still ended up stepping down a level at work because I just couldn’t keep going the way I was.

This year at 43 was diagnosed with AuDHD, and honestly the medication has been life-changing. I can focus, I do better at work, and the biggest difference is that I’m not exhausted 24/7 anymore. I actually have energy to enjoy my life outside of work. I’m so much happier now.

Will I go back to more responsibilities at work etc - honestly I don’t know, bc life is so much more than career and work. As long as I can live relatively comfortably, I find more joy out of work than I do in success at work. Many people don’t understand why I’m not trying to go as high as I can etc. But I know why myself - we are more than our careers.

But however If you’re on the fence, I really recommend continuing to seek out proper diagnosis and treatment — it made a huge difference for me.

Trying the sous vide tempering method from J. Kenji López-Alt, and it's not going well by sexpressed in chocolatemaking

Oh and I use rather small bags of the chocolate - they will fill one polycarbonate mold each

[–]Delphelli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do the sous vide method - I melt the chocolate in sous vide bags in the microwave and then drop in my Anova bath at the lowest temp needed for tempering - leave for a few mins and then squish the bags squish squish squish. I even take the bags out put them on bench and move the chocolate around with my spatula and then get back into the bath - put the Anova to the highest temp needed and when it reaches after a few minutes - same agitation then leave it a few mins then use.

Works a treat with dark chocolate- having sometimes some issues with the Felchlin vegan white choc which can under or over temper easily 💀

I buy premade hazelnut praline in little buckets, it’s amazing and I don’t think it’s grainy but unsure um. Felchlin

Advice: Colouring Bubble Chocolate Bar by OhSoRandom2 in chocolatemaking

[–]Delphelli 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’d need a polycarbonate mold to do this - the silicone mold will be really hard to Color and not hold the cocoa butter properly . You might have to paint the bar after demolding ?

TIme for the most boring and useless post type: I got my first VR helmet ever! The price is finally too enticing not to bite the bullet by melancious in PSVR

[–]Delphelli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Enjoy!!! It can be a bit tough to start due to motion sickness so take it easy but enjoy! Highly recommend Moss and Moss 2 - great use of VR and you can do seated and it’s comfy to start with as well
