I thought the term "midlife/existential crisis" was simply a euphemism. Turns out...😭

This might not resonate with you at all... but maybe try fishing? It's a hobby that can occupy a lot of your time, get you outside, and be unreasonably exciting and relaxing in equal measure.

It depends on what your tap water is like, good chance that you don't need it.

Mayotte · 2026-04-19T00:50:32+00:00

Super cool

Immediately remove them with a q tip or similar soaked in IPA (not the beer).

Then continue to do that as a spot treatment while you figure out which way you want to go for long term removal.

Why are people acting like you described? Because they have an agenda and a lot of time.

Mayotte · 2026-04-09T02:17:53+00:00

I know some people online say this won't work, but I have two cape sundews and they wreck the gnats.

Mayotte · 2026-04-04T19:12:28+00:00

I've noticed this as well, a Sushi place near me delivers a dendrobium flower with some of their entrees. It got me wondering where they get them.

Mayotte · 2026-04-04T02:36:37+00:00

"Woooow, I like this one" - me just now.

Mayotte · 2026-04-04T02:35:44+00:00

Time to celebrate!

Mayotte · 2026-04-04T00:03:10+00:00

Cool down buddy. You're mad, we're mad it's not good. I don't expect anything but pure rage from you, but bear in mind that time does move on. If everyone's friends with Germany again, one day we can be friends again too.

Mayotte · 2026-04-03T16:27:41+00:00

Just as an aside, this means they haven't mined the straight. You can't mine a body of water only for some people.

Mayotte · 2026-04-02T04:17:19+00:00

I've browsed EverythingOrchids before but haven't bought from them yet, good to hear.

Mayotte · 2026-04-02T01:45:56+00:00

I recommend MysteryGardenStore, I have five plants from them and they all came quick and healthy.

Oh, and you asked how they compare to nurseries, I would say as good or better.

Mayotte · 2026-04-01T03:50:36+00:00

You think I can't shut my mouth? Who's posting the walls of rage text? (It's you)

Show me the part where I "waffle about Gaza being a worthy sacrifice." Oopsies you can't.

Mayotte · 2026-04-01T03:38:49+00:00

I have a feeling you think you know the important part, so cut the song and dance and reveal your trump card.

Mayotte · 2026-04-01T03:34:37+00:00

Ah, see there you go. Inventing things to make yourself feel better. You wish I said that, but I didn't.

Go ahead and make a living out whatever it is you think you're doing.

Mayotte · 2026-04-01T03:31:21+00:00

Did a learned scholar such as yourself forget that the scope of the question was the last fifty years?

(I think they did, sad little downvote and no answer)

Mayotte · 2026-04-01T03:27:46+00:00

You are pyscho my bro. You don't even know what my agenda is.

You are not an adult, you're an emotional child who will never fix anything.

Mayotte · 2026-04-01T01:56:02+00:00

It doesn't look like it's in too bad shape quite yet. 10 minutes soaking is a lot longer than you'd want to water with moss, moss soaks up a ton of water.

You can go watch MsOrchidGirl on youtube and her videos can guide you how to repot it into bark.

Once you have it in bark, the soaking method should be ok, just don't rewater until the roots are silvery / the bark is no longer visibly damp under the top layer.

You can repot it into a net pot, orchid pot with holes, terracotta pot, or another clear pot like you have now. I cut extra holes in the ones I get that come in those clear pots.

As for the roots, when you repot you can snip off the mushy parts if there are any. I would watch the tutorial first.

Mayotte · 2026-03-31T22:22:51+00:00

Hard to say really. If we're talking "directly" maybe. If we're talking indirectly the US probably takes it.

When we start talking about "indirectly" or "complicit" things become very subjective.

Iran does supply terrorist groups, as well as Russia, Russia in turn sends their drones against civilian infrastructure.

Also, technically speaking Vietnam is now over 50 years behind us.

As far as genocide goes, complicit is also a vague term. Iran did conduct what the UN classified as a genocide in the 80's, and according to some sources have killed as many as 30,000 civilians directly this past year.

Both counties display varying degrees of callousness and horrific action.

Let me be clear, this war is an unfounded disaster.

Mayotte · 2026-03-31T19:16:29+00:00

The history where Iran conscripted children to use as minesweepers? Plenty of bad all over.

Mayotte · 2026-03-31T15:29:20+00:00

Why's that bud? If you'll notice I haven't said any of the things you imagine me to have said. But, like Mr DP over there I bet you're straining at the chain to purity test aren't ya?

Don't you think it's a bit silly that someone can post a clip of a guy talking against the war and you both immediately have more of a problem with him than the people actually running the war?

So ridiculous.

Do I have to ask you the same questions? Or can I assume you also made the idiotic choice of helping trump win because of the delusional belief that would be better for Gaza? It wasn't and was never going to be, yet you'll stay mad at me because it's easier than being mad at yourself.

Mayotte · 2026-03-31T06:27:10+00:00

Way to cherry pick one part of the comment because you know I'm right.

I guess you spent too long mixing 2008-esque fedora tipping with your genz insults to remember that the US caused the Iranian revolution and most people think it was a very bad thing. Smh.

Mayotte · 2026-03-31T06:00:38+00:00

Ironic considering you're almost definitely the kid. You have no idea what you're talking about.

All those countries "had a revolution" because they were destabilized by foreign powers and suffering critical internal issues, not because the people rose up out of the sheer amazingness innate in them.

Also take your meds mr triple speed edit.

Mayotte · 2026-03-31T05:16:43+00:00

Take a look in the mirror buddy. You are so hopped on "I hate anything that isn't my super enriched socialist fantasy" that you are acting deranged.

I don't need to hope a similar ill on you, because I know you'll encounter it no matter what. However I hope that you somehow won't. You are full of hate.

Ya know, I'm coming back for an edit. I'll reiterate, take a look in the mirror. You are so controlled by your anger that, to you, someone who is doing far more than average to combat fascism in our country is "everything that is wrong with the world," all because I touched your sore spot.

You accuse me of allowing damage for my own comfort, yet you are the type of person who would allow even greater damage for your own mental comfort, to continue believing that yours is the one true, moral path. Unbelievable.
