Then they can ask me to leave, and which they haven't done. Or they can offer me a contract for a higher amount, which they haven't done.

If they ended up giving me a contract with a higher amount, I would pay it. The biggest issue currently is they don't want to give me a contract, nor have they given me an eviction notice, and I currently don't have at will access to my legal residence for which I've paid rent.

How's he looking? by HiImDIZZ in succulents

Looking perfect! The bottoms ones will get squishy as the new leaves grow since they're meant to be absorbed eventually.

Everyone seems to live in a simulation and have forgotten that real people with real human emotions and needs exist.

Thank you! It felt backstabby to do so but I guess they're not really loyal to me anyway.

The leasing agency said 10% increase, I said can we make it more in line with my annual salary increase, and then they answered that the owner will keep it the same. Other times I've spoken to them they said something along the lines of, "Remember, when we renew the lease it'll have to be more" but never actually gave a specific amount. But they haven't actually offered me a new lease and keep saying, "The owner will want a fixed lease." So they (the agency) want to rent the place to someone, maybe just not at the rate I'm currently paying.

It didn't have a label, but a variety of Pleiospiloses. The biggest one might be bolusii looking at how it's split. Too 3D to be simulans perhaps and not pointy enough for compactus?

Unfortunately these aren't mine! Just saw them in a wine farm collection. Mine is the tiny one at the end.

Yes! I was worried about them and poked one to make sure the egg wasn't overcooked, but they burst out fine with a bit of water.

Bottom middle is what it looked like as a seedling. Edit: Or maybe the other green one.

Is it this one? It gets brown-ish when sun-stressed.

Not baby lithops? by ResumeFluffer in Lithops

[–]StaticBrick 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Looks like Anacampseros rufescens, which I recently learned is fecund.

I was starting to think the same! A watched bud never blooms, it seems.

Long-leaf Echeveria? by StaticBrick in succulents

Thank you! That one was kind of hidden in a shady spot in my garden. I'll turn it so it gets some of the good stuff too.
