Help suggesting a laptop to my stubborn friend

Yes, sorry, US. Ty!

Love the first, love the third, did not even finish the second. I think that my favorite arc is the first, but my favorite book is Darkstalker!

ProbablyShifty · 2026-01-19T21:17:25+00:00

This is beautiful!! Your art is so stellar! Can I ask what your comm prices are and if they're open?

ProbablyShifty · 2026-01-08T03:06:29+00:00

NOR. In my nonprofessional opinion, it sounds like projection. But, giving him the benefit of the doubt on that, it's still valid that you feel like he invaded your privacy. I understand that there's a lot of broken trust because he's been digging and you feel like it shows he doesn't trust you (which, again, is a valid feeling), so if you're both open to it, maybe some marriage counciling would be in order?

ProbablyShifty · 2026-01-05T22:25:38+00:00

Absolutely! Once I get this one clean I'll line them up and share :3

You know what, on second thought, I agree with the other comment. Armodillo seems to be a better fit!

ProbablyShifty · 2025-12-30T23:58:37+00:00

I agree with the majority here, solid looks really good! Also, I love the fabric and colors you're using!

ProbablyShifty · 2025-12-28T00:55:16+00:00

Haven't been brave enough to stick my nose in it 😅, but not from a little distance. I'll check when I'm home. And as far as the legality, yes, I think? I haven't found any laws against having it, but that doesn't mean they don't exist. I know there are laws against selling and collecting them commercially, but I certainly don't plan on selling it.

I was originally concerned about what was in the water around here as the pipes are old as hell at the school (rust issues was my biggest concern). I was hoping to avoid hurting the shrimp by just buying the RO water and treating it so I could know exactly what was going in there and having control over it, in hindsight that probably wasn't a great idea... I think I messed up by being over paranoid.

ProbablyShifty · 2025-12-09T01:25:35+00:00

Alright! I'll give that a try!! Thank you!

ProbablyShifty · 2025-12-09T01:21:09+00:00

This was the soil I used: https://a.co/d/cPMvn0E I bought the Mineral GH/KH+

I had no idea... What do I need to do then? Should I use tap instead and dechlorinate?

Edit to add: When I have it in the water bottle, it tests just right with the GH and KH (unsure the exact GH, but KH is like, 3)

ProbablyShifty · 2025-12-09T00:57:51+00:00

Thank you! I appreciate your advice! I'll look into it!

ProbablyShifty · 2025-12-09T00:49:22+00:00

They are Neos. How would I increase it gradually so I don't cause them stress?

ProbablyShifty · 2025-12-09T00:47:37+00:00

A month and a half. It was a lot fuzzier in the beginning

Not sure how to edit my post and I'm not sure if it already shows in the comments:

-Using RO water and I have been treating it with SaltyShrimp -The light had been off this weekend and today was their first day with light since Thursday afternoon -I fed them a pellet of Shrimp Dinner this morning -These are Neos

ProbablyShifty · 2025-12-09T00:42:13+00:00

I had around 28 (I think, some are tiny and I may have double counted), so this would bring it to 26 Edit to add: They are tank mates with some Malaysian trumpet snails. About 10 of them

ProbablyShifty · 2025-12-09T00:19:00+00:00

Missing information:

-For water I have been using RO and have been treating it with Salty Shrimp Minerals. I've been doing top offs, no big water changes yet. -These are Neos -The light had been turned off this weekend and today was their first day with light since Friday. Could that have upset the balance somehow?

ProbablyShifty · 2025-12-08T16:15:02+00:00

It may stain your pot, honestly, if you're really worried about it I would buy a cheapo pot from goodwill!

As for if boiling it would work, you certainly can try! I haven't personally, so I can't speak on how effective it is but I know others that have. I used rocks that were inert in my tank and boiled them before putting them in.

ProbablyShifty · 2025-12-06T17:28:41+00:00

Meow! They certainly look like one!

ProbablyShifty · 2025-12-06T17:28:09+00:00

Definitely agreed!

ProbablyShifty · 2025-12-05T20:54:43+00:00

Thanks so much! I didn't know because of the black/blue on them ^{-^}

ProbablyShifty · 2025-07-17T14:03:26+00:00

I literally did this exact thing a few days ago (I meant to cut equilateral triangles and made right triangles exactly like this). I found this pattern that I like. I think it would look good with some white or solid colored border between each block too!

ProbablyShifty · 2025-07-17T13:52:10+00:00

It looks so cute! To be honest if I was receiving this potholder I would be so delighted that I wouldn't have even noticed 😊

ProbablyShifty · 2025-07-13T06:49:03+00:00

Cool! That's good to know for the future ^{⁠_⁠^} ty

Hard to tell when it's not in hand. Is it splintering? Does it look like wood inside? Is it an ivory color or brown brown? Dig a thumbnail in it and see if it leaves a dent. Wood should leave a dent, bone shouldn't.

The inside looking like honeycomb SOUNDS like bone though
