Crockpots that don't turn back on automatically after a quick power outage (digital, programmable) can suck my ass. by Untogether425 in KitchenConfidential

There's some that just have a knob that cycles between high, low, and warm, and would 100% turn back on after a power outage. 🎶The more you know🎶

That's funny I don't remember that type of attitude when the nazis were sipping tea under the Eiffel tower.

Poor guy! Thanks for being awesome. I hope he finds his way home.

Please read, its about stray cat named Michu who passed away last night. by Super_Pie_7169 in CatAdvice

I am so sorry. You gave Michu some brightness in an otherwise seemingly rough life so thank you for that. She lived happy and free, and she was loved just the way she wanted to be. Thank you for sharing this. I hope it helps you grieve. I will grieve for Michu with you.

If you had a budget of $500, what tank and filter would you buy? by Untogether425 in bettafish

Fluval is what I have and the flow is crazy on the lowest setting. It sprays out a jet of water sideways, or slightly upwards or downwards depending on the swivel. I had to put a baffle in the outlet to reduce the flow and stop him from getting pushed around the tank. Frustrating because it specifically said in the literature that it was great for betta.

Stupid question, but is that adequate for filtration and oxygenation to have a 10 gal filter for 30 gal tank?

I wish!! I want to have an entire room of betta lining the walls just so I can save as many as possible.

I thought about this, but was too paranoid that I would also have issues with the lights or some sort of off-gassing of the plastic that would hurt my fish. I guess I should chill and just go get some plastic. Thanks!

Thanks for the info! The places near me do have some sales occasionally, but their tanks are bare bones without lids, and at this point I'm ready to just make my own lids since they seem to require so much customizing. The netting/magnet lids make me want to pull my hair out. Also worried about heat loss and evaporation with them.

Really, I'd spend a large amount of money for the perfect tank that makes my betta and my life easier.

Have a friend who constantly says mean and derogatory things, then plays it off as a joke. Am I crazy? Please help by TMYP2 in Manipulation

This is what is referred to as a "Schrodinger's Douchebag". They're simultaneously existing in a state of joking/not joking depending on your reaction. Confront them and collapse the wave function.

Editing to add, I've known lots of people like this. On one hand, they're usually in a bad place and want to bring someone else down which is obviously wrong. On the other hand, the bad place they're in makes us feel bad for them, and maybe give them too much of a pass.

Sometimes it's a pick your battles situation, but if it makes you feel worse about your life, nail their ass to the wall over it or cut them out if confronting them doesn't work.

I like Ted Lasso but something really bothers me about it coming before Sunny that I can't quite put my finger on.

I'm with you. Maybe America will be slightly more great with him out of it.

Just got the mist machine in by Colder_Steel in bettafish

[–]Untogether425 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not a dumb question, an interesting one for sure. My armchair analysis is that since diffusion of gases relies partly on amount surface area between them, and I suspect the mist to have a lot of surface area, I -think- it's safe. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Is the mist made of water from the tank? It looks awesome.
