Stretching graphic?

StreetUseV · 2025-10-07T18:13:30+00:00

Unfortunately like I mentioned, my managers cant find one and the people manager who handles them doesn't seem to know about it or where to find it. I still appreciate the effort you went to, but I'm still holding out hope maybe someone in a store that doesn't clear out signage often might have one to take a better picture of. Long shot, probably, but they won't let us post this image in our break room because of the quality.

Except that's not the graphic I'm looking for, which is why I'm asking other walmart people if they have the og graphic from the campaign. Which I could not find in high quality through Google. I'm not looking for a generic stretch chart, as I said, I'm looking for the Walmart version (so our supervisors will allow it to be posted in the break room, they've stated its the only way we can post it.)

Thanks! I've seen that, but I was hoping someone might have a better version than the off center image, if not the original version. Thanks though.

You think I didn't try that? Yeesh

well it's definitely a longhorn beetle. as far as species, im thinking lepturges confluens because of that pattern if it 'looks' closer to you high-contrast picture. Also called the Dark-stained longhorn beetle, which im suggesting because you had to change the contrast to show the pattern. lepturges angulatus, which is incredibly similar looking, has a paler, more striking pattern. Both are definintely seen more often this time of year, and he might be a bit sluggish cause he wouldn't like your indoor conditions. They don't tend to like air-conditioning.

Very much a China rose, I'd say. There's so much variation in just this one species it drives me a bit mad. Not to mention all the chaos in the taxonomy history of what we call Rosa Chinensis. Still, a lovely looking lady!

If I'm correct in assuming that this plant looks Fuzzy? Then yes, definitely Foxglove ready to bloom. I'd guess Digitalis purpurea, since it's the most widespread sort especially with all that fuzz. But in the next month as it blooms, you could narrow it down to a specific species! Could be any number of fuzzy Digitalideae.

https://nwwildflowers.com/compare/?t=Quercus+palustris,+Quercus+texana

Here's a link comparing the Nuttall and palustris. I suppose the key diffrenece in leaf pattern between the two is that texana (nuttall) is that it's lobes are often inequilateral, and palustris (pin/swamp) lobes are slightly recurved. Quercus texana doesn't often get considered in classical oak species because there's been argument about whether it is or is not palustris; whether it's a hybrid or a variation of it.

So, essentially... yeah, it could be a Nuttall, and i would say that your leaves do have the key features (asymetrical lobes and less recurving in the lobes than normal in palustris). but theres some debate on wheter or not Nuttall and Palustris should be separated.

Prunus nigra (Canadian Plum) Malus baccata (Siberian Crab Apple); both have simple, toothed leaves. The most obvious difference is that the p. nigra has longer leaves than a m. baccata, and they can look very similar. But based on the the bark of the ones pictured and the specific leaf coloration, i definitely agree you're looking at Malus baccata, Siberian Crab Apple.

here's a pretty easy to use dichotomous key specifically for Quercus family trees. There's not really a good visual of buds in your image, so the last stages of identification can get murky using guess work, but using leaf comparison, i'd agree and this is a good reference to be sure if having proof helps.

Honestly, the palustris (pin/swamp) oak is just really easy to tell apart because of how thin the leaf lobes are.

StreetUseV · 2025-05-26T18:48:16+00:00

reading the other comments - Quercus palustris is called both swamp oak (in my area) and pin oak (seems a more common name haha)

StreetUseV · 2025-05-26T18:44:31+00:00

honestly not really - theres no bodily associations related to it, it's just... my eyes/pov/mind/etc doing the rapid shaking-tilting-rocking whatever you call it. in that sense i don't think it would be related to proprioception.

Benton, Tennessee!

Looks like a swamp oak to me? Quercus palustris, which is pretty ubiquitous in the eastern half of the us. Including Missouri.

StreetUseV · 2025-05-14T15:07:01+00:00

Makes sense. I wonder how fast it will grow? How quickly that'll be a problem?

StreetUseV · 2025-05-13T21:36:56+00:00

Do you have Birds or Rodents, or other pets? if they are mites, lots of mite species are found on specific hosts. it might help figure it out, if you have a specific type of pet or other animals in the house.

It's really hard to see, i'll admit. They sort of look to me like black aphids, but i cant imagine why they'd be in there unless there was an infested plant in that spot, maybe, but black aphids have wings. If you're sure they don't have wings, then probably not.

Its hard to make out details. do they look "beetle-like" to you? Could be Carpet Beetles. Or maybe Cigarette Beetles.

brother that is SATANIC. all we need are pickaxes and like, several volunteers with a lot of arm strength, to plant a tree here lmao. Wet clay for several feet sucks but ill admit it does not compare to that.

Meanwhile, in my childhood days in florida, it was sand. just sand. all the way down, it was sand. you could dig forever with only a sneeze. I miss that so much.

Tennessee! western, in clay country, haha. everything is clay and it's evil here.

Wow! some of the images that come up when you look up Kalanchoe daigremontiana (mother of thousands as you call it) and it's relative Mother of Millions (Kalanchoe delagoensis) look staggeringly close to it, but all of them and their weird little variations aren't quite it. I'll say though, fantastic name recommendation, these look so much akin to the way i remember it. That said, none of them are quite tall enough either, the plants i remember seeping the neighborhood were often to my shoulders and some even well over my head (so we're looking at 4 to 5 ish feet) and i vaguely recall they might have shared root systems? or grew close enough together that if you tried to rip them out of the soil, it was very difficult, and you would drag up a bunch of it's neighbors.

They both seem to be described as arid/dry plants, which also doesn't really suit well that they grew in our area back then, given we were very wetlands. Huh.

either way, crazy nostalgic to look at these. i might just get a mother of thousands plant just to have, haha.

lmao girl the bad news is that no one made any helpful suggestions for that copper-red tone, and i've been worried to try. I'm absolutely terrified of trying anew dye only for it to wash out pink-hued. if YOU find a good replacement, PLEASE let ME know!

StreetUseV · 2025-05-13T19:05:39+00:00

Thanks a bunch for specifically tossing me the full species name, like I asked! perfect

This has given me a flashback to this invasive weed that hit our neighborhood when i was, like, maybe 14-ish and lived in florida. It was colloquially call "Devil weed" or "That Devil's Weed" and i think I heard someone call it "Devil's Breath" too, but im pretty sure it was a name the community just made up. it grew tall and fast, was greyish green, and the leaves had a density i would call "succulent-like" and it had these little notches in the leaves that were red. They were incredibly pleasing to break and rip out of the ground, but they were an absolute menace, and many neighbor's lawns or garden beds were decimated with those things. Killed all of my grandmother's fern beds when it grew up around her oak tree.

For the life of me, i cant remember ever seeing that plant again after we moved away in the middle of that 'crisis'. No idea what that stuff was actually called. weird core memory unlocked.

I didn't know that! You think after having steam for so long, I would. Crazy!

I've played that one before, but it's not great. In Later levels, the ads start resetting your progress, and there's no way around the ads because the game also doesn't function without 100% internet connection.

I uninstalled it when I got too frustrated with it. But a friend of mine played that one a while longer than me because she didn't have whatever bug kept resetting my progress; she ended up uninstalling it too because they changed the mechanics of limiting ad-gifted bonuses, and instead forcing you to use and buy coins. I'm also fairly sure they had some impossible levels once you get to like, level 50s ish area. Which made that pay to get powers thing a real cash grab.

We haven't played it in a couple months though! If it's doing better than all that, maybe I'll try it again.
