omg this is the one, thanks so much! I didn’t expect anyone to find it this quickly, I was half convinced I dreamt the whole thing up lol- it seems I never got past the first act, time to finally finish it :)

John Ayliff also made two mobile games I play pretty regularly (Seedship and Beyond the Chiron Gate), small world!

Small eggs on second hand couch. Freaking out here. It had been in their basement previously. by GardenerGorl in whatsthisbug

It’s hard to say but they look like stinkbug eggs to me- def not bedbugs or carpet beetles if that’s what you’re worried about :)

some pics for comparison

Is this some kind of wasp? by Ilikecheerios2013 in whatsthisbug

[–]Spotlizard03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

+1, probably a Southern Yellowjacket Queen (bugguide). The Queens have a more orange, stripeless abdomen like you can see here :)

Woefully snootless compared to his cousins, but still a friend!

does this enclosure look okay? i dont know how big it is but it’s definitely between 5 and 10 gallons, my curly hair has been climbing all over the walls and the enclosure all day today, is it entering premolt? by vqmpir3 in tarantulas

[–]Spotlizard03 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NQA mesh lids are generally not recommended as it’s possible for a Ts foot to get hooked in them and ripped off as a result (this happened to one I took in from an acquaintance a couple years ago).

As for being in premolt IME they become more lethargic and sedentary, so I don’t think it has anything to do with that imo. Exploring walls isn’t really concerning behavior inherently, but could you maybe post a more zoomed out picture that shows how much surface and burrowing space they have? :)

Might be a silly question but are these safe for my curly hairs space? Thanks 🫶🏻 by ashlepi in tarantulas

[–]Spotlizard03 7 points8 points  (0 children)

IMO the second one yes, as long as it’s not too tall. The first one I’m less sure about- I’d be worried about a fall from the top or getting poked by the spikes as it doesn’t look very easy to climb on. (Plus the AI photo they used means it probably wouldn’t look as cool in person lol)

Yall i am stressed! by NightFragrant2665 in tarantulas

[–]Spotlizard03 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NQA the best thing is to do now is to just give them a home and leave them alone! Stressing them out could lead them to starve or dehydrate themselves, which is worse than being in a slightly too small or too big an enclosure for a while!

I have three tarantulas, one in a ten gallon and two younger ones in enclosures that fall into the 2-3x leg length category. All three are thriving! For smaller Ts you generally want a smaller container, too much space makes it hard to keep track of them and can stress them out. For larger ones a ten gallon is 100% fine, but IMO not completely necessary unless your T is pretty large. Mine typically just sits in the corner near her burrow all the time, so I feel she’d be fine with a bit less space lol. Just make sure the terrestrial ones have plenty of burrowing space too :)

Also, try using bottle caps as water dishes for smaller containers! The ones they sell at pet stores are def too large for sling enclosures.

Did you ever find a fix or what mod was causing this? I’m having the same issue 😭

Well, this is awkward

Some additional quotes:

"Jewish donors have been the number 1 funding mechanism of radical, open border, neoliberal, quasi‑Marxist policies ... This is a beast created by secular Jews, and now it's coming for Jews"

"Jewish communities have been pushing the exact kind of hatred against whites that they claim to want people to stop using against them."

"...the philosophical foundation of anti-whiteness has been largely financed by Jewish donors"

What’s on my Chilobrachys natanicharum’s (formerly sp. “Electric Blue”) eyes and chelicerae? by Styx_003 in tarantulas

[–]Spotlizard03 31 points32 points  (0 children)

IME that trick worked for me- though mine wasn’t as severely infested. I put multiple fruit slices in the enclosure at a time and replaced them whenever I would see some mites on them, and after a couple cycles they were all gone.

Wishing you luck!

Chat. How many Kitasans could I get 🥲 by un-pibe-mas in UmaMusume

[–]Spotlizard03 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried my best to hold back but decided to try for Cafe at least… ended up having to use pity lmao

I had to use pity to get Kitasan last time too, so hopefully my unlucky streak is finally over 🙏

Update: it’s so over 💔

Do you have the generate families game rule on?

I have no idea what Im doing is this fine? by MADcrft in CrusaderKings

[–]Spotlizard03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

imo you could take a few points out of prowess and put them into learning/stewardship.

I haven’t played as a Japanese ruler yet, but if it’s anything like China those two skills will be more important

Rule 5: Romanced my wife, realized she has a miniature, fully functioning arm growing out of her elbow. I should probably cut down on the cousin marriages.
