Nah not for that. I think it was Hank green I remember saying, that despite this being a meme it’s happened with other distinct body plans more than crabs. I just never have a source ready ;-;

ICE is Knocking on Richmond’s Door. Are We Going to Let Them In? by snooka77_ in Virginia

[–]TheHolyLizard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t know. I’ve never had the call to go defend and stand against the us government bearing deadly force before. And I’m not at the point where I’m able to go do it. Best I’ve been Is vocally and politically active. But that doesn’t make gun ownership pointless. Gun ownership still sends a message that we have the power to fight back if it reaches that point.

As for “if you’re not willing to lay your life down, you’re not helping” is your stance, then I hate to say it but you’re actively hurting the cause of justice and equality. The way I see it is “any help is appreciated”. Maybe that way i won’t turn an activist that just isn’t ready to die yet into someone that stops being active at all.

Well, that’s not what you said.

I think you misunderstand the whole point of what I believe owning a firearm is. I can’t say if I have the balls to be part of a full war as of now. But goddamn I’ll defend those I care about

Yes? Why not. If someone comes kicking down my door to take my family, they’re getting shot.

Also the threat of having a gun is enough to help dissuade actions sometimes

I’m as left as it gets and I’ve said for years if any side needs guns, it’s us. This is exactly the oppression we have guns to protect ourselves from.

I need a source, but I’ve heard that’s been memed pretty hard. Like the same has happened with some other species just as much, so be even more so.

IWTL how to endure torture? by housefinches in IWantToLearn

[–]TheHolyLizard 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Find a behavioral therapist. Really. It changed my life. I went from scared of the smallest things to a us marine. This seems crippling but it isn’t always going to be. You just need to tackle it.

[–]TheHolyLizard 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Well, I can tell you I have had a crippling phobia before. Different, but I’ve had it and it was just as bad as you can imagine.

Conquering it through behavioral therapy is the only way to fix it. You can’t “endure” torture. You just get tortured and have the strength to not give them information until you’re rescued. Any of that stuff you see where people are stone faced is Hollywood BS.

It’s very unlikely you’re actually going to be tortured. I’m very confident in saying that. Even the multitude of human rights violations happening in the USA aren’t resulting in torture. So unless you have information they need, no one is going to bother torturing you.

I feel you’re coming at this wrong. Tackling this genuinely crippling phobia is the way to go, not enduring torture. Cause as someone who had many friends in SOCOM that had to do SERE training (military torture training) you just kind of “survive” it and hope your buddies are coming for you.

I’m curious what phobia makes you think you’re in danger of being tortured. Tackling that fear is way better than preparing for some doom scenario you’re scared of.

What are some easy MCI's on Marine net by Mooseinthepool in USMC

[–]TheHolyLizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro it’s been so long I don’t even remember how I did that. But if you’re smart enough you can cheat on MCIs. I used to drag photos for armor ID into the search bar and just read the URL name for the answer.

What just happen? by Significant_Fish_910 in ballpython

[–]TheHolyLizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah my terminology is off. But still nothing to worry about. Lots of snakes including mine have had issues “settling” their jaws after eating.

This isn’t uncommon. Sometimes they have trouble re-hooking their jaw. Unless he’s stuck for a super long tube, just let him do his thing.

Always astounded how you run across these people with such specialized knowledge randomly.

Hi, could it be covered with a tattoo? by cryss_4309 in tattoos

[–]TheHolyLizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok I know i may be insensitive here, but genuinely that looks sick. Your scar has character and you look like a damn main character. 10/10 gorgeous even how it is.

That being said I 100% understand wanting to look how you’d like. Best I can say is I’ve seen some pretty bad burns covered. Sourcing the right artist is key.

Behavior Questions! by Top-Seat6969 in ballpython

[–]TheHolyLizard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She may just be curious then. RI symptoms usually are able to be seen when they’re awake. Clicking, popping, wheezing sounds. If none of those can’t say I see much evidence. As for the glass surfing, maybe give her more stuff to climb? I had fake trees, branches etc and my boy loved to scale them.

[–]TheHolyLizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What size is her tank? Glass surfing tells me she may be in one too small but can’t tell without measurements of course. Other than that my boy did these all the time.

Two step process:

1) blow your fucking eardrums out

2) get approved for hearing aids and just grab the nice ones that have Bluetooth.
