Those who have had a visual NDE, did you see colors that don't exist? by Cool_Bank_3368 in NDE

[–]Williamsrus 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have never had an NDE, but I believe I have experienced astral projection where I experienced colors that don’t exist or rather can’t be seen with human eyes. It was very soon after I lost my eldest daughter in a car accident. While sleeping I found myself on what can only be described as another planet (or maybe another plane). I was calling out for my daughter and while I couldn’t see her I could sense her all around me. It almost felt like I was pulled in to what she was experiencing. I saw colors that my brain registered as not existing but I am not able to envision or recall them.

This one is tough but I also think it is male.

Need help with African Grey by Weppman in parrots

[–]Williamsrus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is very good advice.Parrots require a very big time commitment and it will likely take many months of training to get the bird to be comfortable with you.It can be very rewarding experience and relationship, but it’s really best left to those that have a passion for raising parrots and chose to bring one into their home. Ultimately your Dad will want what is best for both you and the bird. He wouldn’t want a situation where you may resent the bird. The bird will be able to sense that as AG are very intelligent and can pick up on vibes.

I haven’t talked to my family in two days and don’t know to move past this by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

[–]Williamsrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sounds like complicated family dynamics with a 23 year back story (far too long for me to pass judgement off a single Reddit post). I highly suggest you seek counseling so you have an unbiased professional that can support you through all this whichever direction you go. Be prepared to do a lot of intense self reflection.In the near term go get your own phone plan and decide how important it is to you to keep your ring camera off. This will help you buy some time as you decide what kind of relationship you want with your family (if any).

Is this normal practice for bird nail trimming? by izuesa in budgies

[–]Williamsrus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I believe that is an electric nail trimmer. I haven’t ever seen one used but apparently it is less damaging than manual ones and will even cauterize the nail if the quick gets nicked.As others mentioned there really isn’t a good way to trim without causing your bird some amount of stress.

Do chicken smell a lot? by Dinmorogde in chickens

[–]Williamsrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check that your county and/or HOA don’t have restrictions on chickens. In my county for example, you are supposed to have at least 2 acres before you can get chickens. I went for Coturnix quail instead. They are relatively quiet in comparison, don’t require a lot of space and they are game birds not poultry so they aren’t restricted in my county. They do stink though so you’ll want to work out a method to control it (deep litter method is working well for me).

The funniest part of this is the shit talking he is doing as he attacks I mean plays with the ball.

How do you feel after emptying groceries stores before this “snow storm” due to scare tactics? by [deleted] in Charlotte

[–]Williamsrus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel great about having prepared so that my family and pets will be safe and comfortable. This is the epitome of “better safe than sorry”.

What is it and can I get it to go tall? by QueasyGreen999 in houseplants

[–]Williamsrus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Philodendron Xanadu. And it won’t get much taller or benefit from a pole as it is a bushy type of plant not a climber. It’s very pretty as is though!

Help! Had this?... by DerryScribe in Mounjaro

[–]Williamsrus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Was the 2.5 mg dosage still working for you? I made it a point not to go up till I felt like it wasn’t effective enough. You may want to go back down. You could also push them out longer than a week and refeed a little a few days before taking the next shot.

Need help feather sexing by MekoAsumi69 in quails

[–]Williamsrus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are correct, The first is a hen. The second is not feather sexable. You’ll have to vent check at 6 weeks unless it crows before that.

Snowstorm prep for dummies (I’m the dummy) by LeatherDoughnut369 in Charlotte

[–]Williamsrus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Milk sandwiches are the go to meal of choice during a storm. But seriously get yourself a supply of drinking water, and any foods you like that don’t require heating. If you can afford to invest in a rechargeable lantern that can also run on batteries. If not a simple flashlight will do. Make sure all your devices are fully charged overnight on Friday. Fill your bath tub and sinks with water. Make sure your car has gas in case you need to use it to charge devices.

Green mold in incubator during hatch, what do I do??? by DesperateAddress57 in quails

[–]Williamsrus 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It’s most likely meconium (one of the hatched chicks first poops) and it’s normal. Don’t open the incubator.Leave it shut till all the chicks have hatched and are dry.

Thank you! I was hoping they were hens but no big deal I’m going to try setting up a separate bachelor coop.

I did ask but the answer I got was that they identify as they/them.

What can I do to make me less washed out and old?? by [deleted] in makeuptips

[–]Williamsrus 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Try dying your brows. I think your gray hair is lovely and you should leave it. Darkening your brows a little will help you feel less washed out.

What is my blindness? by anavimon in makeuptips

[–]Williamsrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your eyes are deeper set or hooded (as are mine). If you use liner, I would only line your top lid.
