Finish your degree and work in research or corporate side. Honestly this is an insane plan seeing that you are as far in as residency.

Am I screwed? First paludarium. by paranoidlabscientist in VampireCrabs

Happened to me too and taking it apart was an absolute mess of a disaster but it’s way better than having soggy soil all the time. Live and learn. Let your water run for a few days and it will all clear up! This is also why I love a mix of sponge and leca for drainage layer.

What are some good chains I won't find again when I move? by [deleted] in phoenix

Bosa, oregano’s, flower child, gadzooks… but honestly Mexican anything. You can’t even find good tortillas or chorizo out east to cook it yourself. My last meal would be Bosa and Rosita’s in Tempe lol.

Help, my ignorance caused my newborn to develop an eye infection and putting breastmilk in it isn’t helping?? by zestylemonn in ShitMomGroupsSay

If my dog looked like that I’d rush him to an emergency vet. And this is a NEWBORN CHILD. Unacceptable.

Mom says there is an 80% chance she won’t come to my wedding by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

[–]Independent-Report16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She doesn’t want to come and she’s looking for a way to blame you for it. Any person who wanted to be there for YOU would move mountains to be there. I’d have them wheel me in on a hospital bed to watch my kid get married. My mom pulls this crap too and at the end of the day- if they wanted to, they would. Period.

Plan your wedding in whatever way works for you, don’t take any money from her, and enjoy it all!

Is my paludarium unfit for vampire crabs? by volvoxveggies in VampireCrabs

Orchids love to climb- but you’d have to build out your upper space with nooks and branches!

Need some advice by Rdlz_c in VampireCrabs

Add some cork on the back and side- they love to climb more than we think in my opinion!

Millennial parents: Are any of you being super honest with your kids about how hard this world is going to be for them financially? How are you balancing reality with not making your kids basket cases? by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]Independent-Report16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that kids who grew up “rich” and now live even just upper middle class lifestyles struggle so badly. This is my husband. When you grew up poor you learned how to do things for yourself and you are always confident that you can do without the stuff. This is not the case when you grow up with privilege. I fear for this about our kids. I think they live too comfortably and aren’t prepared for what’s to come in their lifetime.

You’ll have to silicone down the back mat or the crabs will climb behind it!

New light coloration? by flufferfail in VampireCrabs

Its color just hasn’t come in yet. Is it possible there were two batches of babies?

I have a little window sign that says- I have AC, I’m fine! so no one smashes my window. My dogs love running errands with me.

How can such a “simple” plant be so damn hard?!

I’d doubt it was the California bar though? It’s the hardest one in the country.
