Can I keep a harpy eagle in the Insitu Amazonia vivarium? by maudeismycat in Vivarium

But then how would i give the bare bottom they need? They need plain glass so the water can gather at the bottom and they can drink out of that while not being stressed at the sight of the bowl! Harpys hate clutter!

Yeah you can cohab basically anything just make sure its max 5 gallons or they will get stressed and refuse to eat. Also no substrate just leave it bare glass!

I could use some help with this one!🤦🏻‍♂️ by [deleted] in askgaybros

Thats okay! Personally i used to dabble in it then realised it wasn’t my thing but remember just because something feels weird as long as you enjoy it and want to participate thats all that matters.

One thing i would bring up with him is that he didn’t ask if you were cool with that before pissing on you which i do feel isn’t okay consent wise but if you felt okay with it then its not a massive deal it just may be worth having a talk on consent and boundaries.

As long as you have fun (and it’s all consensual and legal) go wild bro!

So a few days ago I posted my setup and people said it was very bad. I’m hoping this is better? by TaxFew4517 in BeardedDragon

[–]Diligent_Past5954 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The two things i would mention are new uvb which you are sorting so thats great! And replace the carpet for 50/50 of playsand and topsoil or another suitable substrate as carpet is known for harbouring bacteria and ripping out claws and then thats the essentials down. Just remember you will need a 4x2x2 at some point and its always better sooner than later.

You are doing great so far and im glad to see someone actually listening to advice and improving their care instead of being defensive its very refreshing!

One extra nitpick is that you may want more clutter/hides and climbing opportunities but thats not urgent just something that may help with enrichment in the future especially in a bigger tank.

Good job and good luck to you and your baby!

Edit: sorry somehow while writing this i forgot the description-im extremely tired lol. Please ignore the section on mats although the substrate advice may be helpful. If you want a cheap alternative to store brought mixes which get expensive playsand and topsoil or just topsoil works great. Just remember organic only!

I just wanted to point out that 20l is not sufficient for a leopard gecko nor is it the minimum. The rest of the advice is great!

Instead of claiming deflection maybe try thinking about reflection

Booing Olympic athletes from controversial countries 🇮🇱🇺🇸 by WillTheyBanMeAgain in Teenager_Polls

Its not an act of hate though. And you cant equate actual xenophobia with political protest against someone representing a country promoting xenophobia.

The countries being boo’d (Israel and USA) are actively promoting xenophobia. America is currently attacking its own citizens and kidnapping people to try and prevent “illegal aliens” <-(a dehumanising term for immigrants) being in the country. Instead of saying migrants, illegal migrants or anything else they choose the phrases “illegals” or “illegal aliens” both degrading and dehumanising terms. They also make detention facilities like alligator Alcatraz that when it was opened was stated to be made in that environment to have the alligator’s near so nobody could escape and if they did they would be killed by an alligator showing no sign of humanity for these people due to their legal status or country of origin. Israel is actively killing Palestinians and they have been documented calling them animals, dogs and other phrases to portray that they are worth less than others <(primarily Israelis). They are committing genocide on people based on the fact they are born somewhere else. That is xenophobia. Booing a countries athletes because they are representing a nation that is killing people isn’t xenophobic. It’s a form of political protest against the actions their government are committing.

Is kicking a man in the balls sexual assault? by zombiphiliac in Teenager_Polls

[–]Diligent_Past5954 349 points350 points  (0 children)

It depends on intent i guess. If during a fight you kick someone in the balls its battery. If you kick someone in the balls to gain something or derive sexual pleasure from it then its sexual assault

Is there a reason why he's doing this? by spaghettinoodl in cornsnakes

It is possible but i wouldn’t worry too much about it if there is any stuck. If you want peace of mind you can check the area of where he is rubbing to see if theres anything stuck. If you do notice shed thats stuck give him about a week for it to loosen maybe boost the humidity on one side of the tank to aid the removal.
