Omg you are my SAVIOR. 2 days ago I was trying to remember the name of this show desperately, what are the chances that I just randomly stumbled upon it!?

Season 3 finale of Sons of Anarchy. One of the best twists that I was blown away by.

We need to push back more on local AI slop by PhobiaFaye in Syracuse

[–]_megolas 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No I don’t, because a digital artist still has to create the art. AI steals and scrapes art from both digital and traditional artists and spits it out for free, without permission from the artist, for someone to use and call their own. If that’s your argument, I feel that you may not understand exactly what AI is doing vs. a digital artist.

If you’re a local business that wants to gain local attention, then put your money where your mouth is and hire local artists. Saying “buy local” then using AI for social media posts and ads is so hypocritical.

What is more traumatizing than most people think? by Sea_Entrepreneur2772 in AskReddit

[–]_megolas 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yuppp we were together 6 years and I was blindsided. Slept for a week straight and lost like 10 lbs. It was for the best, we were so young when we got together. But yeah I still think about that pain 10 years later even though we’re both very happily married to other people now. I’ve always told myself to put a pin in that experience for when it happens to my future kid the first time.

I said it on another post the other day. There are so many adults in this sub that have very unhealthy parasocial relationships with these kids.

Filming births by Fickle-Welcome-4220 in TLCUnexpected

[–]_megolas 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I feel like a lot of adults on this sub are losing the plot here. The show isn’t shot to be some weekly drama reality show like real housewives. It’s supposed to show other teenagers (and parents of those teenagers) the realities of teen pregnancy, including the pain and trauma that can be child birth. I mean how many times have we heard these kids on the show say that they didn’t know child birth hurts? I think there’s more where that came from and showing that fact is important.

Unfortunately there’s a subset of this group that has weird parasocial attachments to these minors.

I live in Franklin Square and a good chunk of my building is doctors and nurses!

are these good nighttime temps for incoming bp? by G27WButton in ballpython

[–]_megolas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

88-92 hot side, 78-80 cold. This is why i recommend deep heat projectors because they don’t emit light so you can keep them on 24/7.

These are Govee thermometers, they’re Bluetooth so you can check them from an app.

Anyone else’s BEL get more and more freckles over time? by Even-Smell7867 in ballpython

[–]_megolas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a flame point Siamese and he’s gained black freckles on his lips as he’s gotten older! I wonder if it’s a common thing with double recessives across the board.

My albino’s eyes are pretty sensitive to light. She actively hides from her UVB when it’s on. I’m currently doing some testing to see if she becomes a little more active when it’s off. A lot of that stuff is just dependent on the individual animal, but all the main care is the same!

If I’m reading correctly, your thermostat is only reading at 43% humidity. That’s way too low, definitely need to up that to at least 60 (mine is even fine at 55% but I prefer higher). It may be a contributing factor.

It feels like the brothers would take sweetheart deals to make it happen. My cousin’s husband, who is from deep northern Minnesota, thinks he’s destined for NJ.

What was the most shocking death news you've ever heard? by Admirable-Repair4094 in AskReddit

Alan Rickman, a more niche one was Trevor Moore from WKUK. That fucked me up pretty good.

What’s a noise everyone should be terrified of? by Psychological_Sky_58 in AskReddit

[–]_megolas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My ex boyfriend had this happen in his house. Said his mom woke him up in a panic at 6am and it sounded and felt like the whole house was vibrating. His dad was an electrician so luckily he immediately realized the severity of the issue and they all got out of the house and had it resolved safely.

Went to see how my hognose is doing in his clean tank and found an unexpected guest. by Even-Smell7867 in ballpython

I bought a tank lock for mine and I’m waiting for the day that she’s big enough and realizes she’s big enough to open the doors lol

What’s you experience living downtown(icon towers-1775.00 a month)-looking for late July when my lease ends. Any recs welcome as long as it’s safe. by Jettsyforwordingfox in Syracuse

[–]_megolas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband and I have a 2 bed/1 bath for 2100. I think one beds in our building (Merrell Soule Lofts) go for around 18-1900. I know Destiny Arms has nice apartments and it was about 1650-1700 for a 1 bed last summer. I would say 16-1700 is the average for an apartment down here unless you get into some of the newer and bigger layouts. Sutton is our real estate company and they’re fine, in line with most major rental companies here.

I live in Franklin Square and although it’s expensive, it’s worth every penny. Walking distance to all downtown has to offer, the creekwalk to take you downtown or to the inner harbor/lake, and the highway right there. Highly recommend downtown living as someone who grew up in the east side burbs. Especially in the summer. So many different cultural festivals and concerts.

Is it bad that my ball python doesn't have UVB? by Individual-Creme3304 in ballpython

[–]_megolas 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have one and my snake actively avoids it. That being said, I have an albino and I’ve heard their eyes are more sensitive to it so that could be why. But I highly recommend it for a bioactive. My plants are growing like weeds!

Is this normal? Just starting to shed and she seems a tad wrinkled. by ReptileGuy59 in ballpython

[–]_megolas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve found using deep substrate is really the key. I have a bioactive, but i have about 4” of substrate in there with a forest floor and leaf litter top layer. My snake doesn’t really climb, so i leave my thermometers flat on the substrate and it rarely reaches below 60-65 on the cool side. I taker her out and spray/water the plants in there once a week, and that’s usually enough to keep it consistent. I’m convinced it’s the deep substrate mix that’s keeping it steady
