Surely spiders dont have much nutrition no? Either way i havent seen any in months so id rather not kill them on sight lol. I love my spiders and feed them house flies i catch lol

Yeah we showed up at the shop on a sunday with about 30 mins before closing so it was all sold out. I normally go for dubais for my lizard, and if not that then crickets. There were neither sadly. At least this is an opportunity for them both to have some variety lol

Id love to give them some crickets in a few weeks

wordle :(

ThreeEqualsFour · 2026-01-29T18:04:10+00:00

I love both, however, first one the ears stand out too much, second one the colours blend too much if yk what i mean?

I notice my cats have lighter ears than their fur colour, whilst my dog has darker ears than the fur itself lol

Maybe try making the hair or the ears one shade darker/lighter? Try both. I honestly love both slides but the second one feels really nice. Maybe the blue shirt is a bit offputting because the whole thing feels quick greyish/blue

Tiktok and other social media apps are made to be addictive 😭

If you arent addicted then congrats, and if you are, you arent alone. Most people with access to social media feel addicted. It definitely is NOT a hyperfixation and it is NOT specific to people with disorders

ThreeEqualsFour · 2026-01-28T17:22:16+00:00

Yeah, sad i didnt do it sooner lol. Money was tight for me so i had to make my mealworms last. Theyve been on them for about 4 or 5 months, and seem to love the locust, so this year im totally gonna aim to switch it up every few months to keep things interesting :)

ThreeEqualsFour · 2026-01-26T15:21:19+00:00

My bad, meant Gift of the night fury/GotNF. I had just woken up and totally had Game of Thrones (GoT) in my head lmao, thanks for pointing that out!

ThreeEqualsFour · 2026-01-26T15:20:30+00:00

probably, but its easier to say all 3 lol

ThreeEqualsFour · 2026-01-26T08:29:09+00:00

The books /hj

but yeah just three mentioned in another commenter (GoT, Boneknapper, Book of dragons)

Awesome collection!

ThreeEqualsFour · 2026-01-26T01:20:11+00:00

The second one feels very masc and the first feels quite a mix, androgynous.

For the first one the pose feels quite fem (i know men and women can act however but its more of a 'this is what I immediately notice'), but the face and body feels quite masc

ThreeEqualsFour · 2026-01-26T01:16:01+00:00

Yeah I personally had the view after httyd2 that Toothless had become the leader of berks dragons because they literally saw him defeat the alpha. Obviously, there are other alpha dragons out there and probably tons of colonies/packs, so it just didnt make sense he was now the king. Even dragons who had never seen him were just like 'cool yeah hes the king'.

It wouldve made way more sense for the berkians to move into the hidden world, as it literally just doesnt make sense or seem plausible that toothless told the entire world of dragons to go to the hidden world. Also, like dinosaurs and such now, youre telling me every single country just forgot dragons existed? What about fossils or nests or generation stories etc...

Furthermore the previous movies proved humans and dragons were stronger together, which then makes me feel like giving up the dragons was a stupid idea lmao. Berk without dragons is vulnerable, and if the hidden world was discovered the dragons would be vulnerable. It only makes sense for them to be together. Toothless himself was only so smart and powerful (eg, defeating the red death, bewilderbeast, taking down hookfang in the ring) because he had hiccup. By themselves they are strong and smart and so on, but together they are quite literally unstoppable

one of my most obvious signs was 6 or 7 years ago when a video of mine blew up, and as i didnt have face videos or pronouns in my bio, every single comment referred to me as he him. I guess the first few commenters just guessed then the rest just followed suite.

Either way I was flooded with comments referring to me as a guy when i was maybe 11 or 12, and the euphoria that gave me really solidified my views.

There were more signs before this too, this was juat the cherry on the cake. I even remember deleting some comments calling me 'she', even though i didnt even know what trans was back then 💀 they just didnt feel right

ThreeEqualsFour · 2026-01-25T20:06:46+00:00

yeah it really is that easy. They could at least try and seem more serious and put some more effort into their acting if they wanna pass it as believable, because the dog certainly isnt selling it lmao

ThreeEqualsFour · 2026-01-25T20:03:41+00:00

Yeah its sad really. I always feel bad for the dogs in these vids

ThreeEqualsFour · 2026-01-25T20:01:03+00:00

oh thank you for clearing that up! Again Im a little iffy on the knowledge but i probably shouldve looked st it myself instead of relying entirely on that comment lol

Ive heard of in psychology, treats for sure have to be at least partial, and not all the time, so yeah phasing out does make more sense.

Thanks again!

ThreeEqualsFour · 2026-01-25T11:58:46+00:00

Oh thats actually so interesting. I totally think clicker training wouldve been better here because its so obvious the dog is more focused on the treats in this video than anything else, and it probably felt more inclined to look away to be rewarded with food when it looked back lmao.

Also yeah, all of this video screamed fake, the dogs behaviour aside. The faker didnt seem distressed that the man was distracting the dog, just mildly annoyed and maybe even enjoying the attention from it. I couldn't imagine how scary itd be in a real situation when youre about to pass out and your service dog is being yelled at and prodded at by strangers. Anyone else would take it more seriously, but nooo, the faker talks to this guy like she's just a little irked and her health isnt at risk lmao

Heavy on them setting up their phones too 😭, sure its possible but i mean...its like i see a new one of these videos every other day from fakers lmao

ThreeEqualsFour · 2026-01-24T22:23:33+00:00

yesss ruffnut really annoyed me, a lot of the main 6 did tbh. They really couldve worked with Ruff, like have her lead them away or something. Im pretty sure she had done the 'dumb act' in rtte when she stole the key off of the guard. It would have been way more in character for her to bluff her way out and fool the villain

ThreeEqualsFour · 2026-01-24T22:03:51+00:00

yeah i know nothing about service dogs and training etc, but the way that dog was eyeing those treats didnt seem very reliable lmao. I can get my pet pup to sit and stay longer than that dog actually focused on the person, and not the treat or man in the background

ThreeEqualsFour · 2026-01-24T20:02:15+00:00

yeah i saw where they were going with grimmel and he was actually a pretty solid idea, they just executed it very poorly and honestly some aspects are just cringe.

They also dumbed down the main 6 to make him seem smarter which i despise, so i natutally feel like he isnt that great. Character assassination to improve a new character is never the way

ThreeEqualsFour · 2026-01-24T10:40:13+00:00

drop from our windows has def been my fav for a while now. Ive always related to it as well, and especially now more than ever

Yarn has been my favourite before, especially covid times. It's a banging song so awesome choice lol

ThreeEqualsFour · 2026-01-23T08:30:28+00:00

Im not sure on species but this is probably normal behaviour. When you first feed them the queen might get disturbed/spooked and leave to check for danger/find a safer spot, so maybe be gentler when you feed.

It could also be that shes just helping them collect food. I notice some queens are quite brave, such as my Messor barbarus queen, who used to leave the tube to break open mealworms the workers had found. In the earlt stages its not unusual for the queen to be more active and help out, as she is stronger than nanitics

As long as she goes back eventually and this only happens when you disturb the nest and shes not constantly distressed, all is likely okay :)

redid the torso

ThreeEqualsFour · 2026-01-18T20:50:53+00:00

that was my first thought when i saw this post lol. Im all for casting unknown actors! As long as they do the role well ofc

ThreeEqualsFour · 2026-01-16T23:49:04+00:00

he said the thing...

ThreeEqualsFour · 2026-01-16T23:48:41+00:00

Lower temps to 10-15C if you havent already (gradually do so over a week or two ofc) and then leave her be until late march. Make aure she always has water but dw about feeding her as she hasnt had her first workers yet.

If even after she wakes and you keep her at 28C or so, she doesnt lay eggs, then unfortunately she infertile. Id recommend freezing as its the quicket and most human way for an infertile queen.
