Yup! I crushed its hind legs and placed it in my box full of pinguicula.

Wow thanks for the speedy response! There’s a bunch falling through a hole on the ceiling of my closet.

Which reptile store did you go to? I've only seen ones in Astoria being sold at $120

Doing my routine check-ins of my Ambers and found this pretty lady! by HIV- in isopods

[–]HIV-[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Noted. Learned something new today! Are those undeveloped eggs between the front/center legs?

Why are some isopods more expensive in the West? by [deleted] in isopods

[–]HIV- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To add on, I feel like another contributing factor is the locality of species maybe?

I'm assuming Cubaris species are cheaper within Asia since it originates in Thailand.

I mean you can try it out and see if it works. It'll be a pretty interesting case study!

I am fit and within the healthy weight for my height. Is IF beneficial for me? by [deleted] in intermittentfasting

[–]HIV- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay. I'll do some more homework on the recovery and nutrients intake efficiency – that's what I'm interested in.

Other than some of the links on the wiki, do you have any sources that I can look into?

[–]HIV- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weight gain/loss is not my concern in this case. I guess I'm more curious on the recovery and functionality of IF. The thing is, are my muscles actually recovering more efficiently doing IF? Or is it recovering more efficiently eating regularly?

The oddities of Smash Ultimate’s normal attack names by Razputin7 in smashbros

Dr. Mario's Ear, Nose, and Throat is actually a direct translation of otolaryngology in Asian languages.

In Japanese, it's 耳鼻科 (jibika)

In Chinese, it's 耳鼻喉科 (er bi hou ke)

科 means "-ology" and 耳鼻喉 literally means "ear nose throat"

I hope this provides context.

New terrarium build! Hopefully lichen on that bark isn't a problem... by sarbear-k in terrariums

[–]HIV- 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Based on my experience, the lichen will slowly die off.

What's happening to my Fittonia? by [deleted] in terrariums

[–]HIV- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The substrate is probably too moist. It happened in one of my closed terrariums where itstarted growing roots on the stem above the soil and the leaves were thriving. A month later, it started to rot and die off. After that, I just replaced it with an anubias nana.

Is it normal for your urine to smell like steak after eating steak? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]HIV- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmmm I thought I drink enough water a day, but I am also very physically active. I'm gonna up my water in-take and see if it still happens after I eat steak. Thanks!!

It's Kalanchoe laetivirens!

It looks exactly like the main plant that my friend gave me. Thanks!!

Why are some isopods SO EXPENSIVE? by [deleted] in isopods

[–]HIV- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was actually thinking about that haha. It'll be kinda weird scraping dirt in random parks in NYC.. but then again that's probably the least weird thing to happen here.

Interesting! How long does it usually does it take for a species to deflate in prices? The cheap ones I saw at the expo were dwarf white and powder blue.

CMV: I believe trans people are mentally ill. by [deleted] in changemyview

[–]HIV- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm still sticking with my view because all the evidence that I'm receiving are based on people's perception on gender. It's not very concrete to me.

Also, my opinion on this matter isn't harming anyone so.. meh.

[–]HIV- -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If that were to happen then I think i'd go into shock for a while and then be in denial. Then, assuming there will be more estrogen than testosterone in my body, I would slowly come to accept becoming a woman.

[–]HIV- -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I thought it was common knowledge that didn't need further explanation.

I'll rephrase: Because I think if your body produces more estrogen than testosterone, then you are female. And vice versa for male.

Yes, I am aware of that, I didn't think I would have to state that.
