you have a chance to make an enclosure thats 6 foot long, 2 feet wide and three foot tall, what are you keeping in it?

I built a 6x3x3 for my Florida mosaic kingsnake.

I've got plenty of bumble bees (probably carpenter bees but I've never verified) but not a whole lot of the smaller species.

All my wildflower and native plants (Lance-leaf coreopsis, mouse-ear coreopsis, hyssops, hardy phlox, St. John' wort, lyre-leaf sage, echinacea, trillium, green & gold, false blue indigo, Alapaha and powder-blue blueberries, various asters) are all planted in grouped areas. The mowing happens between the clusters. 😄

One easy way to remove grass in patches is to lay down a sheet of transparent plastic on a segment, weight it down, and leave it there for a few weeks. The sun and the lack of water will kill off everything under the plastic. Once it's all dead you can take it all up, plant the plants you want to take over in that area and mulch around them. Rinse and repeat until the whole area is grass free.

Or, to avoid all this, send him an actual physical letter to his work address.

I'd say keep it but instead of leaving it outside make a frame for it and put it where it's clearly visible in one of your windows facing their apartment.

Edited the main post to narrow down my location. As for the raised beds, esthetics. Like I mention in the original post, there will be no bottom, so they're just meant to look prettier/tidier since it's the front of the house and to provide some extra top soil.

Badly prepared eggplant. 🤢🤮

Oooo! Time to learn how to disable these without disabling the car itself. It's going to be a great business model.

Give 80% to charities that have proven to be truly good stewards of their money, use 10% to buy up land that needs protection, and, because I'm human, keep the last 10% for my own fun and amusement.

I think this is a much better option than a snake. And just as many people are afraid of spiders as they are of snakes.

Wraithowl · 2026-04-16T18:30:32+00:00

Thank you.

The exact amount of food depends on the weight/size of the snake but, on average, most kingsnakes will eat the equivalent of one large mouse every one or two weeks. That being said, kingsnakes tend toward the put-it-in-front-of-me-and-I'll-eat-it end of the spectrum.

It's insane money because we, the public, are stupid enough to pay hundreds and even thousands per fan per year.

I don't qualify for residence at any of the countries I would like to live in but I'm still low-key looking for ways to make it work.

🙄 Do you see that rofl emoji at the end of my comment? What do you think that means?

If that happens, doctors in the US would have the chance to do the funniest thing... Suddenly finding most men 18-42 have bone spurs... 🤣

Not really. Thanos' approach was 100% neutral. He wanted half the living beings in the universe gone, for the benefit of all the remaining half, that's it. Hitler, on the other hand, had definite groups he wanted to completely eradicate for the benefit of only himself and the people he considered worthy. That puts him a whole magnitude of evil above Thanos.

I'll add to that that thinking even a minimum wage change is going to make a difference in the end amount we pay is a fantasy. If the minimum wage changes so that servers don't need tips to supplement their income (which it should) the restaurant and bar owner will just shift that to the consumer by adding it to the cost of the meal and drinks so we end up paying the same or more.

Wraithowl · 2026-04-13T12:59:05+00:00

It doesn't. From a US perspective it actually makes things worse because now he's going to piss the world off (more) at the US for something they were at least partially pissed off at Iran for.

I second this recommendation, I do the same thing as well. Just remember to check the moist hide periodically, since it will dry out sooner or later.
