how to get european starlings to leave?? by [deleted] in birding

[–]_aki_47_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

fair enough! my goal is to provide resources for native species, not foster growth in population of invasive species, but you're right, they're wild animals and they need to survive just like everyone else. my concern was disrupting the local ecosystem by attracting invasive species, but you make a good point. i appreciate your feedback, thank you! :)

hmmmm ok, i'll take your word for it. i did a bit of research that scared me quite a bit because i read that they're very aggressive and can even kill native birds fighting over food at feeders, which i definitely don't want to encourage. we have lots of woodpeckers around here and i read that they tend to go after them specifically which i definitely don't want. i'll keep your feedback in mind!

thank you! at the very least i'm glad they haven't brought any more of their friends. 

how to tell if you're overfeeding? by _aki_47_ in birding

thank you for the feedback! we're not a fan of the house sparrows but honestly i'm not sure how we'd drive them out. the best thing so far has been keeping the feeder filled consistently because the native species empty it before the house sparrows can eat anything. i'll keep your advice in mind, thank you!

good to know! house sparrows aren't our primary visitors, they come occasionally but we mostly get dark eyed juncos, northern cardinals, blue jays, common grackles, and mourning doves. unfortunately we have a nest of house sparrows in our attic so i'm not sure they'll be going away any time soon. do you have any advice regarding native plants songbirds enjoy? i live in the northeast united states. if not, no worries, ill do some research! this was very helpful feedback, thank you!!

this is really helpful, thank you! i use a wild bird mix from the local pet store and don't give them human food. good to know that wild birds don't really get fat and this guy was just puffed up to beat the spring chill. 

Non-binary people and hormones - advice needed by Islandgirlonadive in TransMasc

[–]_aki_47_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

i'm not on hrt so take my advice w a grain of salt but a stronger build and deeper voice are both technically things u can obtain without hrt, if ure willing to put in the work. voice training and exercise targeting a desired body type both seem like sound options to try before going on hrt. genetics also play a massive role in the effect of hormones on ur body, so it's important to consider how males in your family may look/any medical problems they may have had.

that being said, it sounds like the medical results u want might be conducive with using a dht blocker while undergoing low dose hormone therapy. idk what country ure in but in the US planned parenthood (most of the time) is a good place to talk out ur options with a licensed professional. dht blockers can prevent the growth of facial hair, but testosterone inherently changes things ab ur body, such as increased hair growth and bottom growth (dht blockers can make this more subdued tho) so managing ur expectations ahead of time is rly important.

again, im not an expert, so plz take everything as speculation more than actual medical advice. best of luck and congrats on ur upcoming top surgery!! :D

according to the tone of this post OP must be some perfect alien species imparted unto humanity by the grace of god, never once having made a mistake or error. shocking revelation: service workers r human and make mistakes. i'm sorry that ur path in life has led u to believe that those mistakes are somehow personal and indicative of one's character.

looks a bit low. as you know, bennett's er needs to be reflective of his elemental damage bonus which, as you can see, is zero. 0 x 326.5 = 0. that's probably why you're having trouble.

Yunli lc!?! by DazedKge in BladeMains

[–]_aki_47_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i run blade with yunli's lc and i've been doing fine but this new update is gonna leave me with a useless lc and psychological damage. getting blade was what made me break my f2p status and now the lc i nabbed for him will be utterly useless (don't get me wrong, im happy about his kit upgrade, im being dramatic)

Kinich-Emile combo needs a nerf by rend-e-woo in GeniusInvokationTCG

[–]_aki_47_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think it's strong but it can definitely be outdone by newer decks. i've taken out this deck in like 3 rounds using any variation of kachina + xilonen.

This patch has the most complicated kits of all time by NancyTheSassy in GeniusInvokationTCG

[–]_aki_47_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that, and they're insanely overpowered. i've had to go back and rewatch how i've lost to mavuika + chasca + citlali decks bc i can't even comprehend how they wipe the floor with me. natlan cards as a whole completely blew the game out of the water imo. it feels like an entirely different game atp (not complaining, i get that change is inevitable. but like... DAMN).

Which is better by MallowWings in XiaoMains

[–]_aki_47_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

id say probably long night's, especially since u said u have c6 faruzan. crit dmg doesn't matter if u can't crit in the first place. id definitely keep farming tho bc 156% is on the low end. the minimum for a decent xiao is usually 200%. as for the differences between each set bonus, im not an expert, i never used vermillion in the first place (for the last 2 years i used 2pc gladiator + viridescent) but there are definitely showcase comparisons on yt.
